This cake is such a great recipe for autumn when you can get fresh rhubarb but it also works well with frozen rhubarb and I'm sure other types of fruit such as apples or pears would work well too. I've made it a few times and I really like it. Ingredients 250g butter, softened250g sugar, [...]

Apricot and Nut Crunchies
I like nuts and apricots a lot, so what better than finding a recipe that uses them both? This recipe comes from a book my Mum gave to me when she realised that she had two of the same book. I was looking through it to see if anything looked good and I came across [...]
