The Magical Recipe Tree

Welcome

The idea for storing my most used recipes online came after a period of having my recipes and cookbooks tucked away in storage. The ease and convenience of having them available at the push of an internet button was simply to good to resist! As much as I love cooking and experimenting in the kitchen, I didn't create the majority of recipes on this site, I merely love to use them, but I'll attempt to document every recipe I know the origin of.
As a pescetarian, the selection of recipes will reflect this- but there will still be a few family recipes included from my pre-pesc years... though I aim to convert these to pesc-friendly dishes at some stage!

Shirley-Ann's Belgium Slice


In a pot melt 4 oz butter and 4 oz sugar and 1Tbsp golden syrup.  (Don't let it boil.)

Remove from heat and cool.

Add one beaten egg. Stir and add 1 1/2 cups flour, 2 tsp spice (mixed spice, all spice), 2tsp cinnamon, 1tsp baking powder.

Stir. It's quite thick so add just enough milk (you don't want it runny) to a smooth consistency. Not thick-thick, not runny.

Put in a slice tin (20x30) and bake in the oven at 180 celcius.

ICING
good Tbsp butter, and pour boiling water over, til melted. Then pour icing sugar over and keep beating til ready.

Spread over the slice once cool and sprinkle with (red) jelly crystals.
