Coffee Liqueur Ganache-Topped Brownies
These are very dark & decadent, using bitter chocolate and a coffee liqueur - such as Tia Maria or Kahlua.
This recipe makes dense, fudgey brownies. If you prefer them a little more cakey in texture, add an extra quarter teaspoon of baking powder and bake for 5-10 minutes more.

Espresso Blondies
For me, Blondies should be made with melted white chocolate in the mixture - just as a Brownie has melted dark chocolate.

There's no need to chill this dough, but you can prepare it a couple of days ahead and keep it in the fridge until you're ready to bake. It freezes well too, so you can form it into flattened balls and bake straight from the freezer.

Banana Pistachio Loaf Cake
Banana cake was one of the first recipes I adapted and perfected to my own tastes, back when I opened my little sandwich shop in 2008.
The addition of the dark muscovado sugar was a chance I took, when I ran out of caster sugar - and it became my secret ingredient from then on. It elevates it from a decent cake, to a really bloody luvvley cake. By all means use whatever sugar you have, but something brown and unrefined gives the best flavour and texture, in my humble opin
