Halloween Gingerbread Men
Here are a few of my Halloween Gingerbread Treats
For the recipe please see my – Gingerbread Men
Oat Cookies
These are my quick ‘go to’ cookies when we are in need of a treat very quickly. Although they are chewy they also travel well and won’t crumble in lunch boxes or picnic hampers. For this reason these cookies are also our road trip treat too!
These cookies are great plain or they can be jazzed up with melted chocolate and your favourite chocolate bar as pictured. Continue reading “Oat Cookies”
Strawberry Crumbles

Cherry and White Chocolate Shortbread Cookies
I wanted to make shortbread for #NationalShortbreadDay on 6th January 2018. I do make shortbread quite a lot either plain or the millionaire caramel shortbread recipes I have already done. I always like to have something in the cake tin for lunch boxes and after dinner treats, shortbread cookies are perfect for this.
