Red velvet

Thursday, 20 February 2020


I saw these delicious cookies and I knew I had to try them. They looked so fluffy and soft that I feel in love with them. I love anything red velvet so you do not have to sell me twice about these sweet morsels. Perfect for Valentines' Day, Christmas or any holiday that your heart is set on. As far as cookies go, I think this is my favourite, coming a close second to chocolate cookies, that reminds me, this year I have to make them! I always enjoy the store bought ones but it is time I filled my house with the sweet aroma of baking cookies. I cannot wait, especially now that I have moved into my own house, so excited to try out the recipes I have been postponing for too long. I even have some recipes that are in draft form for 2018! What? All 68 of them, just waiting to be created. This beginning of the year will be the time to finish any left over recipes on my blog and develop new ones. Meanwhile, enjoy the video that I made on my YOU TUBE channel below. Leave a comment and let me know what you love about red velvet cookies.

Happy Valentines Day! We made it to the last day of 7 days of red velvet! It's been fun creating awesome red velvet recipes for this month of love. And so I thought I would booze you up a little just to end the perfect day. I love Amarula, not only is it aromatic it is delicious and has a chocolaty after taste on your palate. Parfaits can be mini desserts that you whip up fast and your choose your layering option. I had a pretty awesome 14th day of February, and that is all I will say, hope yours was great too however you chose to celebrate it.

Guys, can you believe that tomorrow is Valentines Day? Day where there will be more chocolate, flowers and wine bought than any other time of the year! It's crazy that one day brings with it so much emotion that when the day is gone, you wonder what the fuss is all about. At least we get to celebrate love in all its glory and sweet pain. Day 6 brings us to this red velvet mug cake that takes less than 2 minutes to create. It had been a while since I made a mug cake and since yesterday we had a decadent dessert I thought why not cleanse your palates with this. I'm getting all giggly thinking about tomorrow because I haven't had a valentine day celebration in a while, you can't really ignore tomorrow since red is everywhere! Anyway before I go on a full random blubering, hope you enjoy this simple recipe I have for you.

Crepes have always been the very best way to wake up to breakfastbreakfast, now add red velvet version and your valentine will be happy for such a delicious treat. I have really been thinking about love. What makes the heart beat so fast whenever you see that person that your mind, soul, heart and body has decided that they are the one. I have been in love before and it was the best experiece I had. I miss that. Looking forward to what this Valentines Day has to bring. Back to crêpes. Red velvet crêpes are easy and so fun to make, especially if you are making them with kids. You can make them even more romantic by cutting them into heart shapes.
