Pineapple Delight
I received several requests to feature a recipe for Pineapple Delight. So, I’m hoping it’s a favorite for a few more of you out there. I definitely consider this to be up there with Fifteens as one of the classic, Northern Irish,…
Malteser Squares
This Malteser Squares recipe isn’t one I remember from my childhood, so whether it’s a more ‘modern’ traybake or just one that Mummy Traybakes didn’t make until I was older, I’m not sure. However, I think it’s one that definitely…
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,…
No-Bake Coffee Squares
Having made my Mocha Squares traybake a few weeks ago, I still had quite a lot of coffee essence left over. And the bottle claims that it should be refrigerated and used within 28 days of opening. Now, I don’t want…
Ginger Shortcake
I’ve already posted my favourite Ginger Nut recipe, so when I found a Ginger Shortcake recipe in one of my books, I knew I had to try it. Now, the recipe said to bake the base for an hour. A…
Apollo Brownies
Another unusually named traybake. It may be named after the son of Zeus, it may be named after the NASA space missions, it may even be named after the Battlestar Galactica character. Who knows?! (Seriously, if anyone does know, I’d be interested to…
Mallow Cushions
This was another reader request. I had never heard of Mallow Cushions before but this recipe had the right name and the ingredient list sounded the same and the end result was rather yummy. But so sticky to work with. Oh,…
Almond & Raspberry Traybake
This is another renamed traybake. My recipe book calls this ‘Economical Almond Cheesecakes’ and the look on my husband’s face when I told him this (after he had already eaten one or two, or was it three…) reinforced the need…
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!)…
Peanut Butter & Chocolate Squares
This was another first for the blog. So far, I have baked the recipes from my retro recipe books with minimal changes. I’ve converted to grams, I’ve added a few more directions and on one occasion I’ve figured out how long…
