• June Baking Update #100bakeschallenge

  

  It’s the beginning of July and I’ve been so behind with my SmartCookieSam blog. It seems I only have time to update it in the school holidays at the moment and that really upsets me as I love doing it. I’ve had a busy time recently and as normal, the blogging gets pushed to the […]

• Garibaldi Biscuits #100bakeschallenge

  

  Do you like Garibaldi biscuits? I don’t care much for them, to be honest. I don’t know why I’m not that fussed with them and I love eating biscuits far too much! It’s not that they have dried fruit in them. Maybe it’s their texture. I don’t know. But at least they taste nicer than […]

• #100bakeschallenge: Rice Crispie Cakes

  

  Well these strictly aren’t Rice Crispie cakes, as there isn’t a single Rice Krispie in them. But allow me to bend the rules slightly as I wanted to make some Chocolate Easter Nests but you don’t make them with Rice Krispies. Cornflakes or Shredded Wheat. I noticed the wording on my #100bakeschallenge poster (see Crumbs […]

• International Coffee Cake Day-Coffee and Walnut Cake #100bakes

  

  Today (Thursday April 7th) marks International Coffee Cake Day! Can’t beat a nice bit of Coffee Cake and my Coffee and Walnut Cake always goes down a treat. A tearoom classic, I love a slice of this if it’s ever on the menu anywhere I go. Mr S doesn’t like sickly sweet cakes and lots […]

• Carrot Cake #100bakeschallenge

  

  Thursday 3rd February was National Carrot Cake Day! I know what you’re all thinking! Oh, she’s a bit late here, it’s now Tuesday 8th February. But last Thursday was so busy, I had no time to think about making any carrot cakes. Instead I shared a photo collage of some previous carrot cakes I’d made, […]

• Lotus Biscoff Blondies: #100bakeschallenge

  

  I wanted to scratch off another two recipes from my #100bakeschallenge this week. I’d already made some pizza dough on Monday for challenge number 5 which incidentally was also World Pizza Day! Saturday 22nd January was also Blond Brownie Day. I had to make some Lotus Biscoff Blondies so great: another challenge could be scratched […]

• Oat And Raisin Cookies: #100bakes

  

  For those that are wondering what the #100bakes challenge is: it is a poster from www.crumbsbycollette.co.uk featuring 100 popular bakes. As you bake the recipe, you scratch the relevant square off the poster, revealing a beautiful hand drawn picture of that bake underneath. Mine doesn’t look that neat when scratched off as you can tell […]

• Caramel Flapjacks: #100bakes

  

  Hi everyone! Hope you’ve had a great weekend and I hope that your Monday is going well. It’s Blue Monday and a Full Moon! I’ve definitely felt a little bit more crabby and irritable over the last day or so. Yesterday, I just wanted to hibernate, let alone go out and do anything. But I […]
