Lemon drizzle cake. Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars | Happy New Year and all the best for 2014 ! I am not one for making New Year resolutions but I have set myself a goal to try and be more organised this year. Ever since having the kids I have struggled to get my life as organised as it was pre children. My husband is always telling me to write things down – so this year I will heed his advice and make lists, lists and more lists. Eight days into January and how am I doing with my newly organised life? Well not so great to be honest. After getting the kids up early on Monday and ready for school I found out at the last minute that I had written down the wrong date on my calendar and they were only due back to school on the Tuesday. Well ok so the first thing on the list was a half packet of salted peanuts. Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars Ingredients 60g butter 30g caster sugar 2 tblsp golden syrup 4 tblsp crunchy peanut butter 175g Digestive biscuits 100g milk chocolate 45g salted peanuts Instructions Lightly grease a 22cm square tin.

Simple Blackberry Crumble - Easy Green Store Blog. It is that time of year again where Blackberries (or Brambles) are all over the hedges at the side of the road, in forests and in fields. The blackberry season usually runs from the end of July to the beginning of October in the UK, depending on the weather. After all the wet weather we have had in the UK this week, we decided to go searching for some Blackberries in our favourite spot a mere 100 metres from where we live, and were surprised by the amount we have come back with.

A 45 minute picking has provided us with just over 3lbs worth of plump berries ready for a number of our favourite desserts and preserves including crumbles, pies and jams. A few words of advice when picking these delicious berries, always wash berries that you have picked before eating them, and make sure you pick from hedges where dogs can’t reach, and away from busy traffic. Blackberry bushes are very thorny, so try to wear long sleeves and appropriate footwear. Ingredients Enjoy! Recipes & Cookbooks – Food, Cooking Recipes from BettyCrocker.Com. Broccoli & blue cheese soup. Food - Recipes : Sautéed chicken with tarragon sauce and skinny fries. Carrot and Tarragon Soup - Soups. Return to listing This is a delicious, summery soup, but it can be made in the winter with two finely chopped leeks instead of the lettuce leaves.

Don't be tempted to use stock, as this detracts from the fresh flavour of the carrots. Serves 4-6 This recipe is taken from Delia Smith’s Complete Cookery Course and Delia's Complete Illustrated Cookery Course First wash and scrape the carrots and slice them thinly, then chop the onion and lettuce fairly small. In a heavy-based saucepan gently melt the butter and soften the onion in it for a minute or two, then add the carrots and lettuce, stirring to get a good coating of butter. Now put a lid on and let the vegetables gently sweat for 10 minutes. Next, strip the leaves from the tarragon, pop them in, then add 1½ pints (850 ml) boiling water, the sugar and a seasoning of salt and pepper. Now either liquidise or sieve the soup, taste to check the seasoning and reheat gently, stirring in the cream just before serving. Related recipes. Crispy Peanut Chocolate Tiffin recipe.
