Pink Grapefruit & Poppyseed Shortbread Biscuits
I was given a couple of pink grapefruit and after making a Bundt cake I decided to make some shortbread too! I love making and eating shortbread and I thought I would combine the grapefruit with poppyseeds in this version. It worked really well and I was really happy with the flavour combination.

Chocolate Chip Cookies
Who doesn’t love a chocolate chip cookie! My first experience of one was in America it was soft and had lots of chocolate chips in it. The ones you buy in the supermarket here in the UK are usually quite hard in texture. This is my easy go to recipe when you want something with chocolate and quickly!

Coconut Shortbread Biscuits
This is another variation of my popular shortbread recipe and I have kept it simple with the addition of coconut and they are very tasty biscuits! I love coconut in cakes and cookies so I thought why not add it to my shortbread and I was really pleased with the outcome.

Chocolate Orange Cookies
This is another cafe recipe!!! We made and sold lots of these. They contain a whole Terry’s Chocolate Orange and some fresh orange zest. They are soft in the middle and crunchy around the edges and taste delicious. Chocolate and orange has always been a classic combination and you can’t fail when you pair these flavours in baking.
My eldest son loves honey and I am always looking at different bakes for him when we visit him or when he comes home from University. So I decided on some biscuits this time as a homemade treat!

These biscuits are made with classic flavours of lemon & honey and are soft and chewy with a lemon glaze and delicious with a cuppa any time of the day.  #biscuits  #honey  #lemon

Lemon Cakeies
These delicious delights are a cross between a cake and a cookie! They have the soft texture of a cake but look just like a cookie. I looked up the definition of cakey as I wasn’t even sure it was an actual word! This is what I found “cak·​ey ˈkā-kē variants or less commonly caky. cakier; cakiest. 1. : resembling cake especially in texture.” They are full of zingy lemon and topped with a drizzle of lemon icing as you really can’t have too much lemon in these cakeies. As I do with most of my bakes I enjoy them with a nice British cup of tea but they also go well with a delicious mug of coffee. #lemon #cakey #lemoncakeies #bake #cake #cookie #baking #sarahsslice #easybake

Brownie Cookies
These cookies were a bit of an experiment and are now the most viewed recipe on my website!!! My youngest son says they are the best cookies ever and my blog followers seem to agree. I have to admit I had to try one or two for quality control and my youngest son had to be chief tester too!!! Luckily there were plenty to go round. They have the crusty brownie top and the gooey centre so I was really happy with the outcome and you won’t be disappointed.

Ginger Biscuits
I wanted to make these biscuits as I had bought a packet of supermarket own range and my husband said they had a weird taste. These are so easy to make and bake and taste delicious. They are exactly what you would imagine from a ginger biscuit - crunchy and a big hit of ginger! They passed the Husband taste test!!!! #easybakes #ginger #Foodwriter #foodieheaven #bakedwithlove #baker #biscuits #afternoontea #cookiesofinstagram #foodiephotography #foodiephoto #recipes #recipe #recipeideas #bakingathome #bakingwithkids #sarahsslice #gingerbiscuits #gingerbiscuitsrecipe #gingerbiscuits🍪

Chocolate Chip Shortbread
l love shortbread and used to buy the squares in Marks and Spencer’s with milk chocolate chips. I had my regular chocolate chips substituted with far superior Belgian chocolate ones so thought I would try and recreate the M&S ones and I think they are pretty near! Shortbread has a lot of butter in the recipe as this is what gives it melt in the mouth texture. It is well worth buying a good quality butter for this recipe as it really does make a difference.

Alfajores Biscuits
These biscuits are typically Argentinian and are a shortbread type cookie sandwiched with dulche de leche and finished with dessicated coconut. The biscuits are light and buttery with a hint of lemon.

Coconut Macaroons
Everyone who knows me knows all about my love of baking. My Husband however is definitely not my chief taste tester!!! He loves savoury food and not my cakes and bakes. In a bombshell conversation in lockdown he announced he liked coconut macaroons so I was like a dog with a bone! I had to find a perfect recipe for him. I tried recipes with egg white and ended up with this one that contains just three ingredients - coconut, condensed milk and vanilla extract. Actually there is 4 if you like
