Nothing quite matches the taste of a warm sugar cookie with tea, and there are few things more enjoyable than making memories with small people by cutting out cookies into whatever delightful shapes the season would suggest. I have made many, […]
Hey guys, it’s me again– and today, with a recipe that I love: German Chocolate Brownies.
I remember when I was a little kid, probably around 9 years old, my mom made a German Chocolate Cake for our family… I honestly can’t remember the occasion for sure, but in my mind I always think of it as having been my birthday cake, since I thought it was so special, and I loved it so much.
Currant scones, it seems to me, are one of the staples of a well rounded tea party. I grew up in a family with 12 children, 10 of whom were girls. I have to say, looking back on my childhood, tea parties were one of those constant, steady things. They happened on the regular and made for a lot of really good memories. Nothing made a winter day more cheerful than a tea party with my family; and nothing made a summer day more exciting than a Pride and Prejudice movie night with scones and tea.
If there’s anything I’m loving right now, it’s this recipe for simple puff pastry.

Cinnamon rolls are one of my favourite things, and this recipe for orange cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting has to be right up there among the best of the best. Since I was a teenager, it’s been a tradition for me to make cinnamon rolls for my birthday every year. Now, I find myself […]
Cranberry sauce is easily one of the simplest things on earth to make, and somehow, it seems to be often the one thing that people decide to pick up pre-made for their holiday gatherings. Why is that? Well, no more: today we’re going to fight back against can-shaped cranberry and learn how to make this […]
Today I’m going to share my eccles cakes recipe with you, which has been one of my favourites in recent years. I got this recipe at first from my friend Sarah, who has British heritage, and who knows how to make a tea party the right kind of way. These are one of those “Perfect […]
Today I want to teach you guys how to make an easy apple strudel with filo pastry. These little pastries are so, so simple to make and incredibly delicious. Let’s get into it. What is Apple Strudel? Apple strudel is a popular European dessert, usually made with a special dough that gets stretched super thin […]
I love muffins. Some of my favourite memories are the times I woke up in the morning (around this time of year, when the air was a little crisp and the holidays were on their way) to the smell of fresh-baked muffins filling the house. There is nothing so warm, so homey, and so inviting; […]
