Lemon Cake Squares with Raspberry & Coconut Topping
For a lovely snack there is nothing much better than a slice of lemon cake. But for something just a little different, and to add some even more delicious flavour and texture I decided to makes some squares with raspberry jam and coconut on the top. The cake is very simple to make and doesn’t […]
Coconut Oatmeal Chocolate Sandwich Cookies – Kingston Biscuits
I was checking out a few websites and came across what seemed like a very nice biscuit, Kingston biscuits. These seem to be coconut and oat biscuits with a chocolate filling placed between to and sandwiched together. They originate in Australia and are made there by Arnotts. I liked the idea of the biscuits and […]
Coconut Tarts
I do love coconut and have made quite a few recipes that include it, but today’s recipe makes coconut the star. These individual coconut tarts are made in small, fluted, moulds. But they could equally well be made in a bun tin. In that case the pastry would have a wider base, but be shallower […]
Nice Biscuits – Cookies
Nice Biscuits are a very popular biscuit or cookie in the UK. The name is pronounce ‘niece’ the same as the French City. There is a theory that the biscuits got the name from that city when Queen Victoria ate some when she visited there. But who knows? Certainly not me. Anyway these are a […]

Coconut & Jam Sponge Cake
Coconut and Jam Sponge is an easy cake to make, and tastes so good. This particular one can be cut into squares and enjoyed just like that, or it can be cut into larger pieces and served with custard as a dessert. Any jam would be good to use, strawberry, apricot, blueberry, blackberry etc. But […]
Chickpea Chocolate & Coconut Brownies
Watching some videos recently I was quite surprised at some of the things you can do with chickpeas. One suggestion was to make brownies, using chickpeas instead of flour. This sounded very interesting and I did some further investigations and watched some videos and they all seemed very good. For my version I am using […]
Coconut Biscotti
I just love biscotti the had, twice baked, biscuit/cookie that originated in Italy. I also love coconut and had some coconut flour that needed using. So I decided to make biscotti with it, using flaked coconut too. Usually I just use eggs, or egg whites, as the liquid element of biscotti but today I inluded […]
