Smartie cookies

These cookies are great for birthday parties. Covered in chocolate and with little smartie faces the kids will just love them, and they taste great, too!

Easy scones

Whip up a batch of these easy peasy scones before the kids get in from school and serve them up with strawberry jam as an afternoon treat. Better still; make a double batch and freeze the leftovers for lunch boxes!

Banana muffins

Banana muffins are an easy addition to any lunch box with very little extra sugar added - and you could add choc chips, macadamias or pecans to the mixture for variation.

Buttermilk scones

Your kids will love getting their hands right into the flour to rub in the butter. Only a little bit of kneading required and then all the fun of cutting out the scones!

Luscious lemon tart

This refreshing, tangy lemon tart is always a much anticipated dessert. What we like most about it is that it doesn't contain the heavy cream and egg filling of cafe-style lemon tarts. Use a frozen shortcrust pastry tart to make this recipe super-quick.

Classic sponge cake

Just like grandma used to make, this recipe for sponge cake will soon be a favourite in your home. Sponge cake is a lovely light cake for afternoon tea. The cake can be prepared in the morning and sandwiched together with filling just before needed.

Brookies

These delicious Brookies are a winning combination of two things: brownies and cookies. You won't be able to resist!

Quick muffins

These muffins are not only easy to make but also quick! Customise this muffin mix with your favourite inclusions such as choc chips, raspberries or bananas.
