The secret to my recipe for Guinness Chocolate Cake with Bailey’s Buttercream is to reduce the stout first to give you a deeply malted and moist crumb. The frosting adds just enough excitement without stealing the show and the end result is a cake you can’t resist eating… even for breakfast!

Rocky Road Fudge Bars
Rocky Road Fudge Bars will make people fall in love with you… consider this your warning. This chocolatey, nutty, creamy layered bar is a standard at every family barbecue and summer holiday party and will be for years to come. I get constant comments that it’s sweet, but not too sweet, and could I have another one, please?!
