Ginger Cake
The festive season is well and truly upon us here at Traybakes HQ. The tree is up and covered in an array of ornaments, bought and homemade. And there are even a few presents underneath. Little Miss Traybakes has been…
Pineapple Coconut Slice
Pastry, jam, pineapple and coconut. It all sounds like a pretty good combination of flavors. And you’d be right! This Pineapple Coconut Slice has a layer of pastry topped with jam (I went for raspberry), pineapple pieces (tinned works great)…
Treacle Scones
Scones are a big part of Northern Irish baking. To be honest, scones are popular on both sides of the Atlantic, although the American variety do tend to be bigger. These Treacle Scones are a nice variation on a plain…
Chocolate Peanut Mallow Krispies
Rice Krispies (or any puffed rice cereal you choose) feature heavily in Northern Irish traybake baking. I have several recipes on the blog already that use Rice Krispies with toffee, Mars Bars and even dates and ginger. This week, it’s that…
No-Bake Chocolate Mint Slice
It’s another classic flavor combination this week with this no-bake chocolate mint slice. There are already a couple of chocolate and mint traybakes on the blog, including one of my most popular recipes the Mint Aero Traybake, but the joy…
Date Slices
Dates are a firm favourite in the Traybakes’ household and there is usually a packet of Medjool dates in the fridge for on-the-go sweet snacking. I’ve already got one date traybake recipe in the archives and there are several more…
Mallow Squares
Chocolate! Marshmallow! Weetabix?! Yes, you did read that correctly. These Mallow Squares have Weetabix in the base. Mixed with some sugar and coconut, of course, I’m not going to try to pretend that these are some sort of breakfast food!…
Chocolate Orange Slice
Chocolate Orange Slice. Another one of those classic combinations. Often found together in cakes and biscuits (I’m not going to start a debate on whether a Jaffa Cake is a cake or a biscuit, so let’s just leave it there…)…
Neapolitan Squares
Although not exactly the same as Neapolitan ice cream, the three layers on this Neapolitan Squares traybake look similar enough to earn the name! It turns out that Neapolitan ice cream was originally available in a variety of flavours and…
No-Bake Lemon Cheesecake Bars
No-Bake Lemon Cheesecake Bars. This is a proper, old-school, retro recipe. It’s made with cream cheese, evaporated milk and lemon jelly (or jello, for my US readers). With some fresh lemon zest and juice for an additional citrus zing. But,…
