Barbecue Sauce
Recipe by:
Debi K
This is an easy to make barbecue sauce using store-cupboard staples - great for an impromptu barbecue!
Fun food cupcakes
Basic cupcakes topped with spaghetti-piped vanilla buttercream frosting, chocolate truffles as meatballs, with strawberry sauce! Great fun to make with the kids and they look great for parties and bakesales.
Raspberry and white chocolate tart
I love this tart. Light yet completely decadent! Great flavour with the raspberries and mascarpone cheese. I've also done this with blueberries, and again it is completely yummy!
Treacle rings
Qaghaq ta’ l-Ghasel or treacle rings as they’re called in English, are by far Malta’s favourite traditional Christmas dessert. Although not excessively difficult to make, they take quite a lot of patience and time to prepare. You can buy these delicious pastries all year round from confectionaries, but they are mostly consumed during the Christmas season.
Cinnamon Toast Sticks
These sticks are best served with coffee as an ‘appetiser’ for your breakfast – why shouldn’t you have an appetiser for breakfast? I enjoy dipping my Cinnamon Bread Sticks into black coffee.
My savoury French toast
A great and filling breakfast, with only 3 everyday ingredients - not including your seasoning of course! Once you get the hang of it, it's a quick meal for the family. You can use either oil or butter. The recipe makes 4 pieces.
Boozy Smooth Ice Cream

SARAHEMM
An incredibly easy way to round off a dinner party - but only if they aren't driving! I like to serve two small scoops in tiny dishes with shortbread, biscotti or amaretti. You can vary this any way you like - try Cointreau or Drambuie (my favourite), or add a few drops of real vanilla extract or some of the vanilla seeds.
Barbecue Sauce for a Party

Citrus Barbecue Sauce for Chicken
Recipe by:
PETEIYC
This barbecue sauce goes beyond the usual concoction, deriving flavour from orange juice, red wine and lots of garlic. It's perfect on any cut of chicken.
Best Spare Rib Sauce
Recipe by:
Fat George
Here's a delectable sauce for spare ribs! Just keep basting them while they cook, and you'll be wanting ribs every night!
Nadia's Simple Sponge Cake
Well, I was making a cake for my mum and I found all these complicated cakes and desserts so I just figured it out myself.
Beef and red wine casserole
This slow-cook recipe is ideal if you're having a crowd over for dinner. Just pop it in the oven and forget about it until you're ready to eat.
Real traditional Scottish tablet
This recipe is originally my mother's, however I've taken my own twist with it, increasing the sugar and adding vanilla - removing the butter to create a perfect tablet every time that's easy for anyone to create. Family and friends and strangers from around the world have tried it themselves and sent me feedback stating that it's turned out perfect and tastes delicious. It melts in your mouth and is bursting with sweetness; the slight hint of vanilla is an added bonus that leaves for a great aftertaste.
Cheesecake heaven
This is a truly gorgeous tasting cheesecake. The texture is so light and creamy, it's shockingly good. I have just included the basic cheesecake recipe - it's up to you which topping you choose. We usually have it with some fruit coulis or cherry topping.
Green Dempsey
This is a lot stronger than you think when you taste it!
Black Forest Trifle
I adored black forest gateaux in the 70s and loved trifle so decided I would fuse the two. You can make it all from scratch but also easy to substitute ready made goods if you don't have the inclination. The ingredients are split to enable you to decide at each 'layer'.
