Nigella and her licorice box [confused]

P.S. recipe on line

Her recipes are good. Try her Christmas Rocky Road. DGCH made it for school staff and relatives last year......yummy!!!!! Not good for after Christmas diets.

I can't be doing with Nigella, she annoys me and I can't bear to watch. My go to recipe books are the Hairy Bikers. I think I have them all!

Love it Alea. Love the mixer too, I use mine loads.

I love Nigella's recipes and use more recipes from her books than from those of any other chef except maybe Nigel Slater (who rarely gives quantities!)

And the recipe gives exact quantities. Might give it a try with my new BFF. (Santa came early!!)
Reminds me of a birthday cake I once made for DD, a nest covered in dark brown icing with little Easter eggs in it. I had read somewhere that adding a little blue food colouring to the chocolate would intensify the brown.
Yep, the children all went home with blue mouths and grey teeth.

What do your teeth look like after a piece of that cake? If it is a cake #dontwatchthecookeryprogrammes

Cherrytree looking at Holland & Barratt site it can be spelt either way.
Presumably depending on which side of the pond you live.

Liquorice powder is available on Amazon.

Oh heck. Licorice or liquorice???

I have just bought the book ( from that well known S American river) for a fraction of the cover price. It only came today so I have not checked, but I am sure she will give exact quantities!
The only time. I have ever used her recipes in the past, they have actually worked well.

Oh yes. I'm sure it is but I won't be buying it.

Is it so that you have to buy her book?

weights, I mean, not measurements.

She doesn't give any measurements for ingredients either - just seems to chuck stuff in willy nilly. Might be OK for a marinade but a cake??
