Fudge Brownie Cookies
Soft, chewy, rich, and of course, fudgy! These cookies are a perfect on-the-go snack for all brownie lovers - pop one in your mouth and run (if you dare). Best eaten alongside a steaming glass of almond milk and additional dark chocolate.
Raw Tiramisu Brownie Slice
An equally as sinful yet notably more nutrient-dense take on the dessert favourite. Creamy vanilla-speckled cashew filling atop a coffee-less coffee and cacao brownie base, all with a light dusting of raw cacao powder. The perfect evening indulgence for the festive season!

There's nothing worse than getting half way through a recipe and realising you're short of one vital ingredient. Here I share my pantry essentials, tips for stocking your pantry, and how I save money as a student.
Flourless Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies
This is a proper brownie - not a single bean in sight. Rippled with peanut butter, this rich batter is not for the faint of heart. Perfect for cooler winter evenings when the window pane is dripping with rain and you've got your favourite pudgy socks on... or when you're just feeling like a little high-quality indulgence.
Almond Butter and Strawberry Jam Muffins
Peanut butter and jelly; a quintessential (and somewhat Americanesque) lunchbox delight and perhaps one of the most classic marriages between fruit and nut. These gorgeously nutty and malty almond butter muffins with a homemade strawberry chia jam swirl are the perfect 'grown-up' alternative - farewell spongy white bread, hello dense, warm crumb. Slather with obscene amounts of almond butter and sliced strawberries for best results.

A Picnic in Ponsonby
Platefuls of thumbprint cookies, avocado-stuffed sushi, cinnamon salt popcorn, and a two-tier citrus buttercream cake - what more could one ask for in terms of lunch on a lazy Saturday afternoon?
Classic Fudge Brownie Thickshake
I'm not going to pretend like this lives up to a hot fudge sundae, but it's pretty damn close! Extra chocolate sauce is optional but highly recommended.
