So what’s been happening at Sweetest Kitchen HQ lately? Well, to make a long story very short, my daughter turned 9 and she received a cat for her birthday. This was a decision I was against from the beginning, as soon as my husband mentioned that it might happen. I have nothing against pets, nothing…
Brownies
Raspberry Chocolate Chunk Brownies
My kitchen was abuzz with excitement yesterday – the sounds of baking tins and saucepans clanking, whisking eggs, spoons scraping against the bottom of the bowl, happy and nosy children who were curious to see what I was doing. Scattered around the kitchen were bowls of fresh raspberries, stacks of chocolate, empty egg shells and…
Squidgy Chocolate Brownies & Le Creuset Ramekins
My husband’s a bit of a worry wart. By “a bit”, I mean he worries almost constantly about a lot of things. He worries about the effects of the environment (i.e. exhaust fumes from cars and trucks, flecks of paint, particulate matter in a waft of chimney smoke) on our children mostly, and at times…
No-Bake Espresso Walnut Brownies
Valentine’s Day isn’t really very special in our family; it’s just any other ordinary day. My daughter made everyone a heart-shaped card this morning, though, and I stuffed heart-shaped watermelon pieces and heart-shaped sandwiches into my kids’ lunch boxes for school today. Otherwise, I hadn’t planned on making anything to celebrate the occasion.
Raspberry-Brownie Cheesecake Pots
It’s been very hot in Sydney lately. I don’t mean to complain, but we’ve had days where it’s been near (or right at) 110F; that’s seriously crazy! As you may understand, I haven’t been baking very much because of this heat. Instead, I’ve been trying out an assortment of chilled sweet foods, such as cheesecake…

He’s been featured on MasterChef Australia where contestants had to bake and prepare his wild desserts, including an outrageous croquembouche, a macaron tower of olive, beetroot and raspberry macarons, and an unbelievable gingerbread house. You can…
Biscoff Ice Cream With Brownie Chunks and Fudge Swirls
Do you love Biscoff? And chocolate? And ice cream? If you answered yes to all three questions, then you’re going to love this post. I’ll show you what I’m talking about… Okay, this looks like a bowl full of mess, you’re right. Let me explain what happened to this bowl of ice cream, though. I…
Fudge Brownies
Last week my 3-year-old son had his tonsils and adenoids removed. What a stressful time for all of us! Even though this type of surgery is the most common one performed on children, any parent would still be worried about this happening to their own child. Apparently tonsils were removed willy nilly back in the…
Bittersweet Chocolate Brownies
I have become a frequent visitor to TasteSpotting.com. There are so many different types of lovely and amazing food on the website, I just start drooling every time I go there! This was where I found the recipe for bittersweet chocolate brownies.
