Did you know biscuits that hang on your mug were a thing? Sometime last year, we went to a garden centre and had a sneaky hot chocolate in the cafe there and when it was served, it had a super cute little biscuit hanging on the side of the mug. I didn't even realise that biscuits that hang on your mug were even a thing but after having a quick Pinterest search at the time, I realised it totally was.I've been meaning to have a go at making my own version ever since but I've just never got around to it until yesterday when I used my basic biscuit recipe to have a go at making … [Read more...]
Super Refreshing Homemade Mint Lemonade….
Way back in 2014, Miss Frugal amazed me with her homemade mint lemonade recipe which quickly became my favourite Summer drink! I've just made a batch so I thought I'd re-do some of the photos and share the updated version with you again!The original recipe for homemade mint lemonade does include a fair amount of sugar but you can reduce that or use a mix of that and sweetener if you prefer.

Amazing Ferrero Rocher Cupcakes….
I have an amazing treat for you today - Ferrero Rocher cupcakes!I didn't set out to make Ferrero Rocher cupcakes but as I was making some chocolate cupcakes for Miss Frugal and her friends, I spied some Ferrero Rochers tucked away in the treat jar and thought I'd have a bit of an experiment. The sad thing is that, because I didn't know how they would work out, I only made two of these bad boys! I used the rest of the chocolate cake mix to make normal cupcakes but if I'd known how brilliantly these would turn out I would have definitely made more - lots more!
