Just like the title says - a delicious pavlova topped with banana slices, caramel sauce and whipped cream. The perfect combination of two very yummy desserts making one that will have you making it over and over again.

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'.

Chocolate and beetroot cake

Recipe by: theodore

Reviews(1)

This is a really moist and chocolatey cake. The kids didn't even realise it had beetroot in the first time I made it. Decorate by dusting with icing sugar or it is delicious served warm with custard. For a healthier option serve with creme fraiche.

Chocolate Chip Fudge Brownies (W/ Gluten Free Alteration)

Recipe by: cellery

Be the first to review it!

After a painful (yummy, but ridiculously unhealthy) amount of experimenting with different recipes I came up with this one. I think it's pretty damn good, myself. Also, it's sooo much better if you can leave these in a fridge overnight, as this makes 'em far more fudgey (ie. far more YUMMY!) They go down great at school =D

A resurrected " used to bake" for my children years ago, lost the original recipe so tried and succesfully baked them again. They are very simple and I think very yummy

Delicious Chocolate Cornflake Buns

Recipe by: superyoungcook

Reviews(3)

For all the gorgeous chocolate cakes around (and there are many), I still have a soft spot for these crunchy, chewy little buns. I include them partly because when looking for a recipe for them recently I found it suprisingly difficult to find one. Oh come on, don't tell me you don't like them! so get COOKING!!!

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.

Elderflower champagne

Recipe by: HScott72

Be the first to review it!

This is a recipe from my mother's recipe book from 70 years ago.She made this drink ready for the workers in the hayfield, and it was welcomed by them on a hot sunny day, and the smell of this drink is so evocative of the sweet smell of hay being worked. This is so easy to make, and costs so little, and is ready to drink after a few days, but if kept, becomes fizzy and alcoholic. The children love it, but make sure they drink it soon!

Everton Toffee

Recipe by: Tammie

This is a toffee I remember my mother making for birthday parties and school fetes. Its a jaw sticking long lasting toffee that you can suck on for hours.

Recipe by: fategg123

Be the first to review it!

I keep experimenting with cakes, some work some don't. Don't be put off by the amount of sugar, it's a cake you have to try.

Flowered fairy cakes

Recipe by: Ruby-Grace Galligan

Reviews(1)

Delicious fairy cakes that only take a few minutes to make!

Ginger Cupcakes

Recipe by: alicarrington

Be the first to review it!

I make these so they have a good kick to them, but it's not necessary. It's the icing that gives them the real ginger strength/flavour, the stem ginger is really just for texture. Lemon icing is a good substitute.

Iced fairy cakes

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Fairy cakes are easy to prepare and always popular with children. Using ricotta in the topping makes a lighter, fresher alternative to the more usual glacé icing. The cakes are best iced shortly before serving.

Individual jam and cream mini sponge cakes

Recipe by: Luisa

Be the first to review it!

This is the best recipe for jam and cream sponge cakes ever. Forever a crowd pleaser, people always ask for more. It's easy, it's quick and most of all, it's so yummy! Heads up, the mixture is not ment to be smooth like a normal sponge cake - no need to beat out all the lumps!

Joanne's yummy scrummy sponge cake

Recipe by: bugsy

Be the first to review it!

This is a recipe my mother taught me to make. A great, simple, tasty sponge cake that you can whip up in a rush using simple store cupboard ingredients. No fuss. It tastes great with or without icing, and you can serve it with almost anything. the ultimate simple pleasure.

These will put a tingle on your tongue.

Mocha Sponge Cake

Recipe by: keletkezes

Reviews(3)

Taking the traditional Victoria sponge variants of chocolate and coffee and putting them together! It all came about from the other half's love coffee chocolates. I suggest you should be familiar with making sponges before attempting this, but it's pretty easy.

Mustard and Chive Sausage rolls

Recipe by: Lauren

Be the first to review it!

I know most people buy these nowadays but they are easy to make if you use frozen pastry, plus you can vary the flavour. This recipe uses fresh chives and mustard. Grown-ups love them! For a birthday party, you can keep them plain or add grated Cheddar to the sausagemeat.
