    Are they the chocolate ones? I've had a look but cant find anything, sorry! The program is on i-player though, although didnt watch it so not sure if she mentions the quantities Have just made them and they smell fantastic! About to make the mince pies as well with the cranberry studded mincemeat. I love baking days!
  • Yes, the chocolate ones with dribbled chocolate and red, white and green hundreds and thousands on the top, :drool:

    Unfortunately she didn't give the quantities on the programme and I am hopeless at guessing :xmassmile

    I wasn't going to buy this book yet I was tempted by watching last night's programme for the drinks and cookies etc, then I saw the ad for Waterstones selling it for £8.99. A treat for me at the weekend! :j

    Hi all,
    I saw Nigella's Christmas programme last night and thought her Girdle-buster thingy looked amazing....I can't find the recipe on Google anywhere so am wondering if anyone here has it? Don't have the quantities required.

    Thanks in advance. (Although if I wore a girdle it probably wouldn't thank you :-)

    Sorry but can't do links so go to 50p a day til christmas, healthily?!-Weezl's next challenge (part 2)page 62 reply 1230 and there's the girdlebuster waiting patiently.

    Is it possible to cook like Nigella on a budget? the amount of different spirits, spices and ingredients impossible to get in lidl/ Aldi, have to do special shops just for those extra ingredients. A few examples would be marsala, cherry brandy, mace, all spice berries etc. etc. anyone else found this?

    Old age isn't bad when you consider the alternative.
