 /5

Coconut & banana snacking cake

This moreish banana cake is made with NOMU Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Greek yoghurt for a superior flavour. Topped with a fluffy whipped coconut & yoghurt frosting, it’s a light and ‘healthier’ choice of sweet treat for snacking on hot summer days.

Oreo blondie slices-6247

 /5

Oreo blondie slices

Golden and gooey blondie wedges speckled with chunks of crunchy Oreo and milk chocolate pieces. If you don’t have a round cake tin, this recipe can also be baked into squares using a 21 x 11cm loaf tin.

Lime cheesecake cookies-2

 /5

Lime cheesecake-stuffed cookies

These cookies are bursting with the freshness of zingy lime in every aspect of their being.

Copycat Romany creams

 /5

Copycat Chocolate Romany Creams

These moreish chocolate and coconut cookies taste just like the classic store-bought version they were inspired by. Although we used milk chocolate to sandwich these cookies together, you can use other types of chocolate instead – dark, mint crisp or even orange would all be delicious!

Bounty Bar brownies

Bounty bar brownies

If your favourite candy includes Bounty Bars, Niki Bars or the blue-wrapped candy in a family-size bag of Quality Streets, then you will LOVE these brownies!
