Vegan Raspberry Coconut Bars

*This post is sponsored by KoRo* A delicious creamy chocolate bar with a hint of berry goodness - these raspberry coconut bars are so easy to make and so tasty! These bars are perfect anytime of the year, but they're a particularly fitting treat for your loved one(s) this Valentine's Day! Even though you can serve any kind of dessert on the day that's also known internationally as the day of love, I do think that something chocolatey with a hint of pink/red just makes it so much more special. You're only making one Valnetine's Day dessert, so why not make event specific to show your special someone how much they mean to you! I do enjoy making heart shaped [...]

No-bake Chocolate Oat Cookies

No-bake Chocolate Oat Cookies Delicious and satisfying chocolate cookies that are healthier than your average cookie and require no baking. No-bake recipes are my favourite kind of recipes. They're so much quicker to make and a lot easier to master and get right. These no-bake chocolate oat cookies are a great example of that. You mix all the ingredients in a bowl, then shape into cookies and you're done! You do have to wait for them to set in the fridge, but that's the hardest part of the recipe.  This is one of those recipes that you can make when you want need a quick chocolate fix, but you're not in the mood for baking. They're also perfect for those warm summer [...]

Peanut Butter Chocolate Oat Cups

Delicious oaty cups with a layer of peanut butter all topped with smooth chocolate - these Peanut Butter Chocolate Oat Cups are super delicious and packed with goodness. Even though we've had many hot days here in the UK, that shouldn't stop us from the joy of making our own treats. The way around it is to make desserts that don't require you turning on the oven. The last thing you want on a hot stuffy day is to add to the unbearable heat by turning on the oven unnecessarily. Treats like these peanut butter chocolate oat cups are perfect for such warm and clammy days. They're no-bake and they're served cold straight from the fridge. The no baking part [...]

Coconut Caramel Bars

A delicious sweet treat that's super easy to make, these coconut caramel bars are the perfect post meal treat! Have you seen the new Celebrations Christmas advert? You know, the one where the bounty bar is lonely and no one loves him. It's become a running joke that the humble Bounty bar is the one chocolate left untouched every Christmas when the Celebration box comes out. What?? Is it just me that ALWAYS picks a bounty before any of the other Celebrations chocs? I'd be happy with a box full of bounty bars and nothing else. Actually, my partner is the same as me. Bounty is his favourite, so neither of us can understand why they're so unloved! I love [...]

Chocolate Tahini Cardamom Squares

Delicious, decadent and fudgy - these chocolate tahini cardamom bars are no-bake, made with healthier ingredients and are packed with aromatic flavours! If you've followed my blog and socials for a while, you'll know all about my love for tahini. I have countless recipes (mainly desserts) where tahini is the star of the show. You'll also know that I'm a self confessed chocoholic, so of course I'm always trying to marry those two ingredients together to make as many yummy treats as possible! I read this quote by Ottolenghi the other day where he said "Tahini is something that runs in the veins of the people in the Middle East” and “It's like olive oil to southern Europe.”. That definitely [...]

Hazelnut Cream Bars

A biscuit base, smooth hazelnut centre all topped with dark chocolate - these hazelnut cream bars are so delicious and dreamy! I made these copycat Kinder Bueno Bars a few weeks ago and they were a massive hit! What I love most about them is that the hazelnut cream centre is literally made up of 2 ingredients only - white chocolate and hazelnut butter! I just love recipes with few ingredients. I wanted to use that 2 ingredient hazelnut cream and incorporate it into another one of my popular recipes - these Biscoff Squares. These hazelnut cream bars are made using healthier ingredients like oats, ground almonds and hazelnut butter. I always try to use less sugar/sweetener in my treats [...]

Mini Vegan Pecan Pies

An easy and comforting treat - these mini vegan pecan pies are so delicious and can easily be made gluten-free too! Pecans (along with pistachios!) are my favourite nut. They're so addictive when roasted and taste so delicious when they come in the form of a decadent and warming pie. This recipe is based on my festive spiced pecan pie that I created a couple of years ago for Christmas. I haven't made a vegan pie since (I have no idea why!) and I've been craving some recently, so thought it was about time I make another one. I wanted to make an even easier version of my recipe using ready rolled shortcrust pastry. I know that pastry is not [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Cinnamon Roll Cookies

Vegan Gluten-free Cinnamon Roll Cookies Cinnamon rolls with a twist, or are they cinnamon cookies with a twist? I'm not sure, but what I do know is that these vegan gluten-free cinnamon roll cookies are absolutely delicious and super addictive. Having only one is not an option I always enjoy baking with spices, but even more do during winter and especially closer to Christmas time. I grew up not celebrating Christmas, even though I'm half English, I grew up in Iraq, a muslim country and there weren't many English/Christian people around us, so there didn't seem much of a point to celebrate it. Also, I grew up in a third world, war torn country that was subjected to sanctions that made it difficult [...]

Chocolate Salted Caramel Cups

Delicious, decadent and completely plant-based! These chocolate salted caramel cups are so easy to make with only a handful of ingredients! * This post is sponsored by Nature’s Charm*  No-bake recipes are my favourite kind of recipes to make, but especially so on a hot day like today. I can’t even think about turning the oven to bake something right now - it's that hot and humid! All you need to make these cups is a bowl, spoon and moulds/muffin pan - that's it! Mix the dough ingredients together, press into the pan then fill the centre with ready made vegan salted caramel sauce. I used Nature's Charm coconut based salted caramel sauce. Because it's so sweet, I made sure not [...]
