Reese’s Peanut Butter Chocolate Crackles

YES! These clean Reese’s Peanut Butter Chocolate Crackles only have four ingredients and they’re for adults too. In all honesty though, how yummy are chocolate crackles? I remember eating these as a kid and I still love them as a 26 year old! Add in some peanut butter and there you have it – the ultimate PB choc crackles. For my followers with children (I know there’s lots of you!)…

Dadar Gulung

  Ah, Bali… there is so much to love. I just returned a few days ago from the most relaxing trip with two of my girlfriends. We were so lucky to stay at one of the best hotels in Ubud, Komaneka Bisma. Nestled in the middle of the rainforest, Komaneka feels secluded from the hustle and bustle yet is still so close to the town (although we hardly left the hotel –…

Carrot Cake with Vanilla Bean Cream

   = = As I write this I am eating the final piece of this clean carrot cake. I would also like to add that this cake lasted less than 24 hours. I would love to tell you that I gave away this cake to my friends and family… but the truth is, I definitely ate most of it. At least three quarters… By now it’s no secret that this clean…

Apple & Berry Slice

  Who knew apple and berries would be such a delicious combination? Definitely not me. On Saturday (aka my baking day) I had so many different ideas of what to bake and couldn’t decide so I left it up to my mum… after all, it was Mother’s Day the next day. She went through decade-old magazine cut-outs of sweet (sugary) treats and picked one she wanted me to make clean….

Warm Chocolate Pudding

Winter is upon us, which means chilly nights snuggled in front of the fire with something to warm your tummy, is not too far away. Unfortunately, my body feels the cold right away, so when Melbourne autumn settles there’s one thing I crave in particular; chocolate. And not just chocolate, but warm, gooey, decadent chocolate. These Clean Warm Chocolate Puddings are perfect for cold nights and chilly mornings (who said…

Raspberry + Dark Chocolate Cake

A decadent combination, this Clean Raspberry + Dark Choc Cake is rich, sweet and sultry (reow). Maybe not quite sultry – I did though make it for a special occasion – my sister’s Hens night. Safe to say, through the blurry-eyed women enjoying the celebrations, the cake was a hit. But it was the next day that I (by myself) truly inhaled the cake until it was totally gone. The…

Salted Caramel Double Choc Cookie Sandwiches

I was craving something sweet but I couldn’t put my finger on it… something chocolatey… but different to what I normally make. I have two favourite people who give me true criticisms of my recipes; my dad and brother. These guys don’t muck around – they eat kit kats, cadburys – you name it. If they want to eat my treats – then I have created something worth putting on…

Mini Lemon & Coconut Tarts

I just returned from a dream holiday in Bali last week and had been looking forward to creating a simple, summery treat. In Bali, it’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of things: Seminyak is the ‘happening’ city with lots of great restaurants, shopping and places to go out. But my heart was in beautiful Ubud – so quiet and peaceful – and amazing food (I stayed…

5-Ingredient Nutella Fudge Cake

  It’s no secret that I love Nutella. Whether it’s winter or not – I can’t go past a nice big scoop of the gooey goodness that is Nutella – so I try to stop myself by making clean versions of treats with a hint of Nutella deliciousness! This cake is extremely easy to make… 5 ingredients. In the oven for 35 minutes. And you’re done. The combination of hazelnut…

Strawberry Sponge Cake

Years and years ago, I once worked for a bakery who made the most delicious strawberry sponge cakes (all sponge cakes to be exact). It was the standard cake at all of my family’s birthdays – not only for its light and fluffy texture – but also for the lovely presentation that could never go wrong. The pink icing against the natural sponge filled with cream – what’s not to…

Salted Peanut Butter Fudge

Similarly to my previous post a few weeks back; the abundance of Europe photos posted by my friends on numerous social media channels has sparked my most recent creation of Salted Peanut Butter Fudge. In Barcelona (here we go…) one of my favourite attractions was the darling fruit market La Boqueria. Each day, my best friend and I would relax on the beach at Port Olympic and grab a few…

Superfood Cacao and Goji Berry Truffles

Ahh the winter blues, or should I say, the winter flu? There’s nothing worse than feeling ill on a chilly Melbourne Sunday, so it’s best to fill your body with nutrients and eat foods that help boost your immune system.  If you’re one of the lucky ones living in a sunny place, don’t worry – these truffles can still be enjoyed while fanning yourself on a sunbed. Cacao and goji…
