Flakemeal Biscuits
Flakemeal Biscuits are classic, traditional biscuits from Northern Ireland. The biscuit is crunchy, full of oats with a little bit of coconut. And very straightforward to make. While their traditional name in Northern Ireland is Flakemeal Biscuits, I ended up…
Alice Cakes
I have multiple recipes for Alice Cakes, but I don’t remember eating these growing up. But there are many recipes I have encountered that are unfamiliar to me, that’s one of the pleasures of baking for this blog, I get to…
Chocolate Custard Slices
Chocolate Custard Slices. These were a big hit in the Traybakes’ household. They are no-bake. They are easy to make. They freeze well. And they are really rather yummy. In my exploration of all things baking, I discovered that these Chocolate Custard Slices…
Wonder Bites
This is another remarkably simple recipe. Chopped nuts, cherries and coconut, covered in chocolate. There is a little bit of coffee essence in the recipe, but to be honest, I didn’t notice a discernible coffee taste from these Wonder Bites. Well,…
Canadian Cookies

Ovaltine Creams
OK, confession time. The first time I made these Ovaltine Creams, what I made was technically not Ovaltine Creams, I made Horlicks Creams. I couldn’t find Ovaltine here in the US. I did find US-made Ovaltine and the first ingredient was sugar,…
Coconut Biscuits
Coconut features heavily in traybake recipes. Glacé cherries feature heavily in traybake recipes. And this recipe for Coconut Biscuits has both of those. If you’re looking for more recipes that contain lots of coconut and cherries, then I’d also recommend…
Cornflake Squares
I am on a roll with the ‘firsts’ for the blog. This Cornflake Squares recipe was my first ‘try to find the traybake someone remembered their mum making’. I received a message via Facebook (thank you to all my Facebook followers!)…
