Black Forest Trifle

Recipe by: stuartd

Be the first to review it!

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'.

Boozy Smooth Ice Cream

Recipe by: SARAHEMM

Be the first to review it!

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.

Brandied mincemeat purses

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Here are some luxurious little ‘moneybag’ pastries filled with a ginger-spiced mixture of dried fruit, apple and walnuts. The dried fruits are first soaked in brandy, although you can replace the alcohol with fresh orange juice if you prefer. Try these at Christmas-time as a lower-fat alternative to mince pies.

Christmas Pudding Trifle

Recipe by: RedChowDawg

This recipe is a lovely alternative to the standard sponge trifle at Christmas. It is an attractive layered dessert. This recipe uses a shop-bought Christmas pudding and a tub of premium custard. Christmas cake works well too but it is not as moist.

Easy bake irresistable brownies

Recipe by: chefveggi

Reviews(1)

This is a really simple brownie recipe. it has been tried and tested many a time and they certainly dont last very long in the cupboard. I always use chocolate chunks when i bake them however walnuts are just as good, it is just a family preference. these morish gooey chocolate treats are an all year all occasion must bake.

A traditional bread and butter pudding that puffs up and cooks to the perfect consistency. I've named the recipe my mothers favourite as she adores this dessert and always finishes it off in one day.

Panettone Bread Pudding with Spiced Orange Sauce

Recipe by: Lizzie Mac

Be the first to review it!

This is a delicious variation on a classic made with the light and heavenly Italian Christmas bread. Panettone is similar to brioche but studded with raisins and candied orange and lemon peel. A luscious sauce made with orange liqueur makes this dish perfect for Christmas and Boxing Day leftovers.

A tasty oaty treat with a fruity edge to it. These are great tasting and versatile. You can pick the dried fruit of your choice and they will still taste delicious. for a lemony kick substitute the orange rind for lemon rind and add a tbls of lemon juice. they will keep for upto a week in an airtight container. do not freeze.
