Happy not-quite-a-long-weekend-but-with-long-weekend-feels everyone! And what a blessing that the sun is shining. We hope to see lots of pics of BBQs and lamingtons. When inspiration grabs you and you find yourself in a baking mood, here is our delicious lamington recipe, there's still time to whip up a batch. What's cooking at your place this weekend? (And we are indebted to Railea Don for this wonderful iconic recipe ❤️}

Ingredients
Cake
125 grams butter (unsalted)
185 grams Caster (Superfine) Sugar
2 eggs
250 grams Self-Raising (Self-Rising) flour (1 2/3 cups)
1/2 cup milk or fresh orange juice
Icing
500 grams icing (confectioners) sugar
3 tablespoons best quality cocoa powder (unsweetened)
1 tablespoon butter (unsalted)
1 cup hot water
250 grams shredded or desiccated coconut

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a 28 x 19 x 4 cm lamington tin.

To make the cake, cream the butter and sugar until the sugar is dissolved. 

Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition.

 Gradually add the flour, alternating with the milk or orange juice. 

Mix together well, then pour the mixture evenly into the prepared tin. 

Bake for 30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely.
Cut the cake into 4 cm squares, trimming the edges if necessary.

Mix the icing sugar and cocoa together in a bowl. 

Put the butter into the hot water to melt, and mix into the icing sugar mixture until thick and smooth. 

Drop the cake squares into the chocolate, ensuring the cake is fully covered, then remove very quickly. Drain the cake on a wire rack for a few seconds. Using a large cooking fork, roll in the coconut.

It seems like summer has finally arrived. There's nothing more delicious or refreshing to enjoy in the heat than a huge bowl of home made ice cream. 

The most astounding thing about this Passionfruit Ice Cream is that it's dairy free and does not need a churner. But fear not, it's every bit as lush and moreish as traditional dairy ice creams. You can find the full recipe in our third book It's Always About the Food'

Plums plums plums. Do not let this season pass without baking this most exceptional cake.  This recipe came to us from Garry Enston, whose Hungarian parents fled Prague in 1939 to begin a new life in Perth. 

Garry’s mother Edith had a collection of wonderful cake recipes passed down to her by her own mother and uncle who was the pastry chef at the Palace Hotel in Prague. 

We’ve sampled our way through our fair share of plum cakes in search of the most delicious recipe to bring to our beloved readers and Edith’s Plum Cake unanimously stole our hearts You can find the recipe in our third book, It’s Always About the Food.

Apricots are in season at the moment here in Aus and they are truly glorious. Their season is short, so please don’t miss the opp to buy a bagful - some of course to eat on their own (when they are good they are GOOOOOOOD)  and some to bake into a spectacular cake to serve simply with a dollop of cream. This Viennese slice from our first book (thanks Viv Green) is just perfect and you’ll find it on page 104.
