I haven’t baked anything for a long time – made plans to a few times, but then not quite got around to it. However, once the kids had got off to school this morning I felt the sudden urge to get all the non-healthy recipe books out and spend a morning pottering about the kitchen.
In the end I chose Nigella’s Butter Cut-Out Biscuits from How To Be A Domestic Goddess – one of the best “I want something of no nutritional value, minimal effort, maximum effect and loads of calories” cookbooks I own.
As is traditional, I made a right mess of the kitchen while decorating them – I’ll be finding escaped hundreds and thousands for weeks. Still, it was fun, I got loads of appreciation from the family and they tasted divine too.
Must plan to be spontaneous more often.
Or something.

Yum. They look lovely :)
I’ve been baking fairy cakes non-stop for about a month – once you cook them once they keep asking for more! ;)

Very yummy in a wish-I-could-have-some-but-not-allowed kind of way. Still there’s no calories in the looking is there :)
