It’s now the start of a busy recipe testing time for me in the SmartCookieSam kitchen. I’m so excited when it comes up to Easter as there are all these yummy chocolate eggs and other Easter treats around! The temptation is so real. The other day my son saw my secret stash of Easter treats…

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…

fitwaffle’s baking it easy- a book review
I must admit I’d never heard of Fitwaffle before I picked up a copy of this book the other day. I’d gone to Northallerton to buy baking supplies and saw Fitwaffle’s Baking It Easy on the shelf in WHSmith! I am always looking out for new baking books. Those of you who know me well,…

#100bakeschallenge: Raspberry and white chocolate muffins (Muffin Monday!)
Did you know that Muffin was my nickname as a little girl? I think it was my Dad who called me that as apparently I couldn’t say Samantha properly and it came out something like “Muffind”! Or maybe I was like Muffin the Mule, haha! Whatever the reason, I love baking muffins even though it’s…

Jane’s Patisserie- Book Review.
Over the past couple of years I’ve discovered Jane’s Patisserie website with her delicious, foolproof recipes. Her cheesecake recipes are my absolute go-to, especially as cheesecakes always used to be a disaster when I made them before. Not any more. No more need for gelatine or for baking cheesecakes. I don’t need that with Jane’s…

Amazing Cakes #27: White Chocolate and Blueberry Layer Cake.
It’s been a few weeks since I’ve tried out a recipe from The Great British Bake Off The Big Book Of Amazing Cakes. Most of the recipes I have left over in the challenge are the more complicated ones or the ones you would bake for a special occasion. Can’t imagine me baking a three…
