    I made a very small apple hedgehog cake. We usually have more than we can eat so I made it smaller but it was very popular, lol

    I'm a child of the seventies...how come I don't remember these?!
  • I made a banana and choc chip loaf using some left over choc chips before I ate them all and 2 black bananas.

    Also did a choc brownie for the first time. It was delish. Had trouble cutting it tho and it crumbled. Any tips? Didn't go to waste I salvaged the least crumbly ones for the tin and the rest we had after tea with custard! Yummy x

    Hello Crowdpleaser - my only thought is if it could have been overdone or baked on a bit high temps? As long as it was yummy to eat though :D
    I must do something with apples AGAIN - and DD2 has asked if I could start making cookies so will go through the recipes tonight :o
