• May 2023 Round Up.

  

  I can’t believe that it’s the last day of May already. Where has this month gone? It has been a crazy month. May is birthday month in our house- first it was my son’s birthday and then mine comes two weeks later! So there has been lots of excuses to celebrate. At the beginning of…

• November 2022 Baking Round Up.

  November has been a month of two halves . I baked at the beginning and the end but the middle two weeks I couldn’t bake at all and had to limit my time in the kitchen. To someone who loves cooking and baking, this was hard. We were having a new kitchen floor laid and…

• Baking Update!

  

  Hi everyone! I feel as if it’s a lifetime since I last updated my blog. My last post was just around Easter, I think. As soon as we got into the second week of the Easter holidays, I began to feel unwell. I have been using HRT for nearly two years and due to the…

• Daim Caramel Mini Egg Brownies

I also had lots of compliments about them from my work colleagues who actually got to test them out. Tomorrow, they will be getting an alternative flavour. This time, it’s going to be…

• Terry’s Chocolate Orange Mini Egg Brownies.

  

  As it’s getting closer to Easter and I’ve been getting ready for the Easter Bunny coming chez SmartCookieSam, it’s got me started to think about some Easter recipes. Usually I look at what Easter Chocolates are around in the shop although I’m surprised the mini eggs have lasted that long. Once a packet is open…

• National Oreo Cookie Day

  

  Who likes Oreo cookies? I do, although they’re not my favourite cookie. I like baking with them, though. I like the mini ones best, which are the lunchbox bag ones with six cookies inside. Yesterday (Sunday, March 5th) was National Oreo Cookie Day according to the My Legoman Foodie Days Of 2022 calendar. When I…

• Nutella Brownie Cake: National Nutella Day

  

  It was National Nutella Day on Saturday 5th February. I wanted to test out a recipe on the day but this didn’t happen. Saturday was my “catching up day” at home and I also needed to actually go out and buy some Nutella as I didn’t have any in my baking cupboard. Do you like…
