The End of Another Year

It's the last week of 2011 and what a busy year it's been!

I'd hoped to post more regularly, but alas, with the business of work and life, I didn't. I'm not going to promise that my recipe output will be ten fold in 2012, but I will say that I hope that you still enjoy reading about my baking antics for another year. Hopefully a little bit more of a relaxed year, I think we all deserve a break!

Strawberry Daiquiri cupcakes with a difference

So to bring in the new year, I hope you enjoy spiking some cupcakes with real boozey jelly shots, what I think is a completely new twist on the cocktail themed cupcake. Make strawberry daiquiri, flirtini, cosmopolitan or any other of your favourite cocktails in cupcake form. 

Bottom's up and I hope you have a wonderful 2012.

Mmmm.... Brownies!

Chewy, dense and delicous Pecan Nut Brownies with Chocolate Chunks, my first ever bit of dabbling with Brownies. And I tell ya, they were good! Easy too, which is always a bonus when making something so yummy that it'll fix your chocolate craving for the better part of a year ;)

I've also included June's desktop background download at the end of the Brownie post, hope you like it!
