Basil, Parmesan and Cashew Dip

I’m totally addicted to this dip. It’s a copycat of the current dips that are quite expensive to buy in the delis. It’s fantastic served with rice crackers or used in your cooking as a pesto sauce. It’s fantastic on pasta, chicken or fish.

Pomegranate Delight

A refreshing cocktail. Serve over crushed ice. I’ve only recently been introduced to pomegranate juice. I think its a great juice for cocktails as it is both sweet and tangy. You can halve the vodka if you enjoy a lighter drink.

Vienna Cream Frosting (Better Than Cream!)

A thick creamy buttery frosting for your cakes. You can make it vanilla, chocolate, orange, lemon or coffee. Its a great topping that you can put some texture into. It looks very effective. Definitely best to have butter out of the fridge for about an hour before required-it’s easier to beat butter that is not hard. The butter should not be melted. This recipe should easily ice 12 -16 cupcakes with piped icing tops. This recipe uses Australian Cup measurements-1 cup = 250ml & 1 tablespoon =20ml
