These boozy, creamy and crunchy Apple, Amarula and Biscoff Desserts are the perfect treat for dad this Father's Day. With layers of sautéed cinnamon apples, thick vanilla cream, and crunchy Biscoff crumbs, its a deliciously grown-up take on an apple crumble! If you haven't tried Biscoff cookies yet, you are in for a treat. These delicious Dutch biscuits have a caramelised, lightly spiced flavour which complements the apples perfectly. All that's needed to complete the dessert is a creamy vanilla layer, made with Lancewood Double Cream Vanilla Yoghurt. This imparts a delicious vanilla flavour and decadently creamy texture, while cutting through the...

Summer is almost over but there's still time to enjoy a fresh, fruity dessert like this one! This Mango and Yoghurt pudding is incredibly easy to make, but is an absolute showstopper too. So whether you enjoy it as a weeknight treat or to end of a braai with friends, it will surely be a hit! The layers are made up of Lancewood Double Cream Yoghurt (a staple I always have in my fridge!), cream, fresh mango and soft brown sugar. Adding the cream to the yoghurt makes it that much more rich and decadent, but if you're in...

When cherry season rolls around late November, I have so many recipe ideas that I can't wait to try. Whereas my Cherry Chocolate Mousse Tart falls more into the "dessert" category, these Cherry Cream Cheese Danishes are ideal to serve as a tea-time treat or a fancy brunch. The Danishes are best served straight from the oven (while the pastry is still crisp and the filling warm and bubbly) but what I love about this recipe is that you can make all the elements ahead of time, then simply assemble before serving and have them on the table in...

As far as fruit goes, cherries are kind of in their own league! With their juicy sweet flavour and rich ruby colour, they elevate any dish and this Cherry Chocolate Mousse Tart is no exception. It's an absolute showstopper and the best part is that achieving the 4 glorious layers requires just 7 ingredients!The base is a simple chocolate cookie crust, which is topped with a layer of fresh cherry halves. Next is a simple 2-ingredient chocolate mousse, followed by dollops of thick Chantilly cream. To crown it all off, a generous amount of beautiful fresh cherries! And there you...

I know these Cheat's Mille Feuille look incredibly fancy, but trust me they are sooo easy to make! I used phyllo pastry (instead of the traditional puff pastry) then filled them with a simple but delicious cream cheese filling and added some fresh fruit. The result is a stunning but surprisingly light dessert! Sprinkling a little sugar on the buttered phyllo pastry not only adds a delicious crunch but also helps to weigh down the delicate sheets of pastry as they bake so that they hold their shape. The creamy filling (made with Lancewood Medium Fat cream cheese and just a...

A Pavlova is always a showstopper, but this Turkish Delight Pavlova is on another level! The filling is made with the new Lancewood Turkish Delight double cream yoghurt which gives it the most beautiful pink colour and dreamy texture, without being too sweet. I've used dried rosebuds, pomegranate rubies and pistachio's to decorate it but you could also use raspberries, rose petals I've shared some tips on how to make the perfect pavlova below. If you like this recipe, try these meringue nests! Tips on making Pavlova: Use the correct size eggs, otherwise the ratio of sugar to eggs will be out.Avoid making...

I just love the simplicity of a self-saucing pudding, and this Granadilla one is my favourite! It's made with Lancewood's Low Fat Granadilla Yoghurt, which adds a delicious fruity tang to the pudding and keeps the batter nice and moist too. It may seem slightly counter-intuitive but making a self-saucing pudding actually involves pouring a sauce on top of your batter before baking. In the oven, the batter rises and the liquid layer sinks to the bottom resulting in a soft and spongy pudding (with a crunchy crust I might add) and a tangy, syrupy sauce at the bottom. I prefer...

If it's an easy dessert you're looking for, it doesn't get much better than this! These Cheat's Créme Brûlée's are made with chocolate and yoghurt, and require no baking! Amazingly, when you add melted chocolate to Lancewood's Plain Double Cream yoghurt it not only sweetens it but creates a creamy, custardy texture. Then just add a flavour of your choice (vanilla, orange or lemon zest, a pinch of cinnamon or dash of liqueur) then top with a crunchy brûléed sugar topping and you have a simple yet sophisticated dessert! I initially tested the recipe with white chocolate (and a splash of...

Last week Huletts sent me a hamper of their delicious syrups and invited me to take part in their tongue-twister challenge. Brett and I had a lot of fun trying our hand at the various phrases - click here see how we did! If you'd like to have a crack at it, click here to do the Tongue-twister challenge too!  I used Huletts Golden syrup to make these easy and delicious Golden Syrup Puddings. The recipe is much like that of a cake, but the puddings are baked in a water bath and have a generous amount of golden syrup...

Crunchy, creamy, salty and sweet - this Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie has it all! I've always loved the combination of peanut butter and chocolate, and this pie is no exception. The filling is made with lots of peanut butter and Lancewood cream cheese, resulting in a rich and creamy texture. With a smooth dark chocolate ganache and crunchy Oreo base, it's ticking all the boxes! I love that this pie is decadent enough to serve when entertaining, but easy enough to make for a weeknight treat (no baking required!). As it's quite rich, just a small slice is enough so...
