Book haul!


I got gifted a £10 Waterstones gift card, and bought myself a couple of books. I have always
been a fan of Laduree's desserts so being able to have their recipes is great (especially their macaroon and french toast recipe). I also got Lisa Faulkner's recipe book 'recipes from mother to daughter', 'street fashion photography' which is a  collection of all things street style and 'The Girl' a memoir about the Roman Polanski rape case.






I will probably review these books in the future but if there's a certain one you would like a review of, please comment down below.

Salted caramel Brownies


I used this recipie http://www.browneyedbaker.com/2010/08/16/salted-caramel-brownies/ to make these scrumptious salted caramel brownies I made these brownies with my brother, and of course we had some problems but the end result turned out wonderful. Everybody who tried it said that it was really good, even my dad who hates everything I make. The only problematic issue I had was with the caramel I did not give it enough time n the heat to thicken and so when I added the heavy cream, the foam I was expecting did not happen but it turned out okay I just kept whisking and occasionally putting it back in the heat until a smooth sauce appeared. I the. Out the sauce through a strainer since not all my sugar had melted, this also caused my caramel sauce too be runny and less flavoursome.

Here's how they turned out and I would defiantly recommend this recipe.
