Cameron is the official 'taste tester'!
I also made a mahoosive tray of lasagne that we had with homemade chips, garlic bread and salad.Before:
After:
Fruits of the forest cheesecake... with a digestive biscuit base was one of the desserts that I made.
Mascapone cheese, double cream and a strawberry jelly mixed.
Topped with fruits of the forest. To be eaten with ice cream...
...or not.
Then I made a Banoffee Pie....making the biscuit base with crushed coconut biscuits and melted butter.
Add one can of the most delicious creamy toffee....top with slices of banana and whipped cream...
...and a dusting of cocoa powder.
As you might have noticed, the favourite kind of dessert includes a biscuit base. Now this one has a different base - made with crushed ginger biscuits and melted butter. This Key Lime Pie was inspired by a recipe that the Delightful Miss Darcy dished up for her family recently. Scroll down until you see Lime Jelly Cheesecake.

I will fight anyone for the skin....but I didn't need to! LOL. It was all MINE.
So now you should be suitably full...I will certainly be considering a diet of some kind in the next couple of weeks....until my youngest daughter's visit in August that is....and I start all over again!
