Hard to pick just one! Love the no knead brioche bread, Swedish sticky chocolate cake, ridiculously easy scones and shortbread cookies.
I have made so many recipes from this site. It’s my all time favorite place to go for something fun, easy and delicious to make and eat

Seena says
So many recipes from you have been amazing. I’m still trying new ones. But I get so many compliments on the No-knead Brioche bread. I make it as our everyday bread, so that’s about weekly. I sincerely appreciate your recipes made easier. It takes the fear away from trying new menus! Looking forward to a new year discovering new ways of cooking.
