Shortbread Base Banoffee Pie
Recipe by:
Samantha
I prefer to make a shortbread base rather than use digestive biscuits - it tastes a little richer. But the choice is yours. Either way, this is a great dessert for a crowd.
Kid on a budget
i was feeling experimental and used all the ingredients i had in my house to make this recipe then when i ate it i decided to let everyone know how to make.
Perfect Smarties® cookies
These cookies reminded me of the ones you buy in shops, and went down really well. :) Perfect to share with all your friends (if you can resist eating them all yourself!) :)
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.
EAT ME cupcakes
This is a sponge cupcake with pink icing on top. It is wonderful and yummy, and this makes 18 cupcakes!
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

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.

Great for serving to children or designated drivers at Christmas time, New Year's Eve or parties.
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.
Gluten Free Banana Muffins
These gorgeous sweet muffins don't taste gluten free but they are! They're especially perfect for gluten free kids finding it hard to adjust. Adults love them too though! My parents aren't gluten free but they devour these! They are perfect for lunch boxes or after dinner treats. I use reusable silicone muffin cases but paper ones are just as good. After the first few times the recipe comes naturally to you and you can cut down the prep time by half.
My buns
This is a recipe that my mum and granny have made for years.there are lots of variations that I have tried including Chocolate chip,cinnamon etc
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.
Mimosa

We know it as Buck's Fizz, but the French call it Mimosa. Whatever you call it, this classic tipple is a must whether it's Christmas, Mother's Day or a simple weekend brunch.

Similar to a mimosa and a great way to strat the day!
Mum P's Malt Loaf
This is a firm family favourite and makes a nice tea bread spread with naughty butter. Everything is measured in cups which makes it easy if you don't have access to a pair of kitchen scales. You can use a coffee mug, or 250ml cup.
Banocolate trifle
An extremely indulgent dessert, perfect for special occasions! Chocolate banana ganache is layered with brownies, chocolate mousse and whipped cream.
Wet cocoa cake
Delicious and light alternative to heavy winter cakes and Christmas puddings. The sauce that is poured over after baking makes it incredibly moist.
