Kit Kat fudge is my new favourite thing!My 5-minute Nutella fudge recipe is one of my most popular posts – especially at this time of year – so I thought I'd experiment with some other variations of homemade fudge.

I’ve been playing around in the kitchen lately, trying to come up with a few fun recipes that feel a bit festive without being complicated or expensive. And honestly, this one … [Read more...]
Homemade Gingerbread Wreath….
Gingerbread just is Christmas to me. The smell of it baking takes me straight back to cosy December afternoons with the kids, decorating biscuits at the kitchen table and trying not to eat more icing than we used. There’s just something about gingerbread that feels like the official start of the festive season – warm, spicy, comforting and so ridiculously moreish. 😊Last year, Master Frugal made the most amazing homemade gingerbread wreath at school and honestly, it stopped me in my tracks when he brought it home. It looked gorgeous. When I shared a photo of it on Instagram, my … [Read more...]
Candy Cane Spoons….
If you’re planning a cosy Christmas movie night or making snowman soup with the kids, these candy cane spoons are such a fun little extra. They melt into hot chocolate beautifully, add a lovely minty sweetness and look so festive on a Christmas Eve drinks tray. They’re surprisingly easy to make too, which is probably why they’ve become one of my favourite little homemade treats to whip up at this time of year. 😊I was so pleased with the way my candy cane spoons came out.

I first published my traditional English trifle post a good few years ago now but with the jubilee celebrations approaching, I thought I'd reshare it because my lovely Nana would have been over the moon with me sharing her with you all!I am planning to make it myself for the Jubilee celebrations so I'll update the photos when I do (if I remember)!My Nana used to pride herself on two things - her split pea soup and her trifles! When I was about six, I told her that she was the best 'trifler' in the world and I'm not exaggerating when I say that from then on, she reminded me of … [Read more...]
How to use up Leftover Baileys Irish Cream….
If ever you find yourself with any leftover Baileys Irish Cream then this is exactly the recipe you need!So, I've called this post 'What to do with leftover Baileys' but in our house, the bottle of Baileys is actually bought more to make this cake than to drink as it's been a family tradition for a good 10 years now and it's not Christmas unless we have this as dessert at least once!I've had a look through my photos over the years to see if I have some good ones but I really don't - mainly because this takes minutes to make so I always make it right before we eat it and it's always … [Read more...]
