MINI EGG EASTER BROWNIES

Last year I made a delicious Easter Eggstravaganza Cake that was one of the highlights of my baking year. This year I wanted to celebrate Easter with a new bake and so, ready for the holidays here are my Mini Egg Easter Brownies! A gorgeously gooey, sticky and fudgy brownies with oodles of Cadburys Mini Eggs and Mini Creme Eggs baked into them to basically create a brownie that is perfect for anyone who can't wait to dig into the Easter Eggs on Easter Sunday. It's soooo naughty but oh so nice!

BOOZY HOT CROSS BUN LOAF

So Easter has been and gone for another year. I know Easter is a religious festival but for a foodie like me, one of the most exciting aspects of the holiday is the traditional Easter food, my favorite being the hot cross bun. This year, after baking a rather awful first batch of buns on Good Friday I decided to mix it up and came up with a new take on this classic by turning it into a fruit loaf, adding some Amaretto soaked sultanas just for a little naughty adult twist and finishing it off with that symbolic cross.

EASTER EGGSTRAVAGANZA CAKE

Firstly, let me apologize for the terrible Easter pun but it had to be done. Secondly, let me introduce you to this slab of chocolate heaven. If you love creme and mini eggs then this is the Easter cake for you! What you have here is a recipe for the most deliciously fudgey chocolate cake which has oodles of creme egg halves and mini eggs baked inside it. If that doesn't sound good enough as it is, the cake is then slathered in chocolate icing and decorated with (Yup, you guessed it.) more creme egg halves and mini eggs. Eggs-cellent (Soz!).

SWEET AND SPICY HOT CROSS BUNS

Happy Easter everyone! Whilst you might be tempted to stick your face into all those Easter eggs over the next few days there is one thing that you can't have Easter without. Hot cross buns! These delicious bread buns laced with mixed spice are peppered with delicious dried fruits and adorned with that symbolic cross are a perfect treat for those looking to get away from the mountain that is properly in your house around this time. Glaze straight from the oven with more mixed spice wash and your glistening masterpieces are ready!
