Easy and delicious one-tin desserts that everyone will love
Not your average brownies, these moreish bites incorporate a taste of the Levant. Roughly chopped pistachios add crunch, blitzed Medjool dates stirred through the mixture add a warm sweetness and tahini brings a welcome nuttiness.
Just 10 minutes of prep are required, then this easy no-bake cake goes into the fridge to set. It's layered with flavour and texture: crunchy toasted seeds, pops of sharpness from dried cranberries, bitter-sweet pistachios, the warmth of ginger snap cookies and rich dark chocolate
Here's a secret for the easiest homemade salted caramel ever. Simply heat together milk, sea salt and... chewy caramel sweets. In our recipe, it's mixed with puffed rice cereal (like Rice Krispies), tipped into a tin and chilled in the fridge, for an indulgent afternoon treat. The perfect pick-me-up.
Yogurt and desiccated coconut make the sponge for this cake delightfully light and moist. And by scattering the chopped mango on top of the batter once it's in the tin, the fruit will be partly exposed so it'll caramelise when baked.
Stirring crunchy peanut butter into a brownie mixture is a great idea as the peanut butter adds a pleasing savoury note and texture. A jar of shop-bought caramel sauce, which is also mixed into the batter, is a helpful shortcut and provides a sweet note to balance the flavour.
It's not just bread that you can make with a sourdough starter. Use it in crumpets, pancakes or, our favourite, brownies. It replaces the flour in a typical brownie recipe (a starter is made up of flour and water) and gives a squidgy, moist, deliciously dense result.
This is a super indulgent take on rocky road and it looks amazing too. Dried apples, Dutch stroopwafel (caramel wafers) and mini marshmallows give it chew, while hazelnuts and salted pretzels add crunch. You'll be struggling to stop after just one piece.
