These eggless peanut butter cookies are easy to make with just a few ingredients you’ve probably already got on hand. They’re perfect for when we have vegans visiting, or I need a lactose-free cookie recipe on short notice.

British people of a certain age simply can’t eat fruit and nut chocolate without singing the “Everyone’s a Fruit and Nut-case” song. Many years ago I went to my first ever ballet, it was the Czech National Ballet in Prague because it is cheaper to fly from London to Prague for a couple of nights… Read More »
These little fellows look like regular gingerbread men, but they’re both soft and veggie. I had a selection of guests to stay over the holidays, and one combination was a veggie, someone with a lactose intolerance, and an octogenarian who was struggling with a new set of teeth. I wanted festive gingerbread men, but they needed… Read More »

It seemed rude not to pick… Read More »
These Nutella cookies are ridiculously easy to make and can be on a plate and ready to eat in 20 minutes.
