Easiest Chocolate mousse in the world

Made this for a dinner party we were throwing last night and was amazed at just how quick and easy it was, probably only about 15 minutes! The only downer is that it requires quite a few different bowls so a little washing up intensive – well worth it though! Apologies for the lack of [...]

Soda Bread Recipe – So quick and so easy!

Inspired by my baking friend at Pass the Teapot, I designated today to my first attempt at making soda bread.
