Brown butter frosting is an 'old' recipe that is not commonly used anymore; however it is delicious. It is easy to make as long as you are careful to not burn the butter. This frosting is great on top of brownies.

Chocolate Fig Biscotti
This recipe is my own. The combination of figs and chocolate together is great. Before baking, very lightly sprinkle cinnamon on top of the loaves after applying egg wash. You won't be disappointed. Store in a sealed container.

This lemon drizzle cake is my take on Mary Berry's recipe. It's delicious and also one of the easiest cakes to make. This is a great recipe for someone who doesn't like too many steps.
