Happy Almost Easter!
My favourite MaltEaster Bunny treat inspired these cupcakes. My Chocolate Malt Cupcakes, a.k.a. MaltEaster Cupcakes.
Soft and rich chocolate sponge, a hidden white chocolate malt centre, all topped off with a cute two-tone malt chocolate Swiss meringue buttercream. And of course, perched on each cupcake, a cute (and delicious!) MaltEaster Mini Bunny, or a few Maltesers.
I had hoped that 2014 would start at the pace of a casual stroll, but instead, it was straight into a sprint, so I'm savouring any free weekend time that I get!
Because of that, I'm coming to appreciate the "simpler" kind of recipes a lot more, recipes that I've now dubbed "Wooden Spoon Recipes". 1 bowl, 1 spoon and an oven. This also means little clean up, another bonus.
So while researching recipes for an upcoming baking class, I discovered that biscotti recipes were exactly the sort of "easy" mix and bake recipe but with a delicious end result. Especially good as they keep for ages! That is, if you don't scoff them all over a weekend ;)
So give these Hazelnut Coffee Bean Biscotti a try, they're perfect for those rare moments of nothing.
