Blondies

Preparation time: 15-20 minutes

Cooking time: 25-30 minutes

Makes: Around 12 squares

These white chocolate blondies are beautifully soft and fluffy and is filled with dark chocolate chips. Very easy to make and perfect for all the family to enjoy




Ingredients

115g White chocolate

100g Dark chocolate chips

115g Margarine

3 Eggs

200g Soft light brown sugar

1tsp Vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

150g Plain flour

Method:

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C/Gas mark 4 and lightly grease a 33 x 23cm/13 x 9 inch rectangular cake tin with butter or margarine.

2. Break your chocolate into a bowl. TIP: Hit your chocolate on the side of your worktop to break the chocolate up, then all you need to do is open the wrapper and pour it in the bowl. Add your margarine to the bowl. TIP: Use a knife to add your margarine instead of a spoon as it is easier. You can either melt it on a pan or in the microwave. TIP: I would use a microwave as its quicker and less cleaning up. When your chocolate has melted leave it to one side to cool down to room temperature.

3. In another bowl beat your sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and salt together until creamy.When your mixture is all creamy check to see if your chocolate is at room temperature, if it is pour it into your mixture. FACT: If you put your chocolate in whilst its too warm it can curdle the egg.

4. Using a metal spoon carefully fold and stir in the chocolate to your mixture. When that's done add a little bit of your flour to the mixture at a time and keep folding and stirring it in. When all your flour is mixed in add your dark chocolate chips and gently stir in.

5. Pour all your mixture into your rectangular cake tin and spread evenly with a metal spoon. Bake in the oven for around 30 minutes until it has just set. When it has cooked remove from the oven and place aside to completely cool.

6. Run a round bladed knife round the edge of the baking tin and invert (turn upside down) onto a baking sheet. Place another baking sheet on top of the brownies and invert again do they're the right way up. Cut into squares or bars for serving and store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Chocolate heart cakes

Preparation time: 30 minutes

Cooking time: 15-20 minutes

Makes: 3

A beautiful fluffy moist chocolate cake filled with the sweetness perfect for anyone on Valentine's day



Ingredients

Chocolate cake:
3 large eggs
175g Self raising flour
175g Caster sugar
175g Softened butter
40g Cocoa powder
1½ tsp Baking powder

Buttercream:
150g Butter
300g Icing sugar
Drop of red food colouring


Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a 2x17cm tin with greaseproof paper. Soften the butter by placing in the microwave for about 10-20 seconds. DO NOT MELT! Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs in and mix well. In a separate bowl sift the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder and mix well. Gradually add in the dry ingredients until fully mixed.

2. Spoon the mixture into the tin and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes. When the cake is cooked, take out of the oven and set aside to completely cool.

3. When the cake has completely cooled, you will need a heart cutter to cut 6 hearts, this depends on how big your cutter is. Be very careful when cutting the cake because if you don't handle it properly it will break. When you have finished cutting out your hearts and you have an even amount, set aside.

4. To make to buttercream, cream the butter until smooth and soft. Then gradually add in the icing sugar and mix well. Add around 2 drops of red food colouring or until the icing turns dark pink.

5. There is no need for a piping bag! Carefully spoon the icing onto 3 cake hearts and gently spread it across the heart. When all 3 hearts and covered with icing gently place the other hearts on top.
