This Nutella puff pastry Christmas tree is so easy to make you only need about 3 ingredients and it tastes delicious I found this on Pinterest and decided to make one for my family
All you need for this puff pastry Nutella goodness is
Puff pastry I got mine from Aldi
Jar of Nutella
2 Eggs mixed together to make a that egg wash for the gorgeous golden colour of the pastry
You need to cut out a triangle to make the tree shape on 2 pieces of puff pastry make sure your puff pastry is set a room temperature otherwise it will break if you try to cut it once out of the freezer
Cut your puff pastry into a triangle shape add your Nutella spread all over the triangle add your top piece and then you need to cut along the sides and then double twist to make the branches of the tree
I baked ours for 40 minutes at 180 fan forced then once i had it out of the oven i sprinkled some cinnamon sugar over the top
I hope you have a merry Christmas

One of Colourpop biggest releases of this year was the highly anticipated Pretty Fresh foundation after the massive success of the pretty fresh tinted moisturiser & creamy concealer this was a very long awaited release that has been one of my favourites of 2020
there isn't that strong coconut smell like the tinted moisturiser which is nice the formula is soft & smooth on the skin and doesn't go oily I always set this with the Pretty Fresh setting spray
The consistency of these foundations are really lightweight and smooth on the skin there isn't a smell of coconut like the tinted moisturiser's are the pump bottle makes it easy for a good amount of product to come out I also love that the bottles are a frosted finish there is 30.ml of product in the foundation bottles
The foundation is made with Hyaluronic acid & coconut water
my skin is oily and I find this foundation doesn't break me out and it does not go oily during the day
Im wearing the pretty fresh foundation in the shade Fair 15w here in the summer Sydney weather its the perfect shade for me
These are swatches of the Pretty fresh foundations & concealer & the tinted moisturiser
From left to right Fair 10 N , Fair 15W , Concealer in Fair 20N and tinted moisturiser in Fair 1N & Light 5N "
Have you tried any of the Colourpop Pretty Fresh Range if so I would love to know your thoughts

To make these you will need
2 box mixes of good quality chocolate brownie mix i like to use the triple chocolate fudge ones of these brownies as you get a mix of milk white & dark chocolate throughout the brownies
6 Large Eggs
half a stick of butter melted and cooled
2 bags of Christmas m&ms
festive sprinkles
Pre heat your oven to 165 fan forced
you need to cook these brownies slow & on a low heat to cook gradually I like to do this method as you get a super soft chewy brownie as that's my favourite kind of brownie
The time to cook these would be about 1 hour and a half as I've added 2 box mixes I like to make sure all of the chocolate batter is cooked properly and you don't have a runny batter throughout

In todays post I'm sharing my mum's recipe for Chocolate Crackles these are a massive party treat from the 90's that are still a hit today for any get together they are also so easy to make and really nice in the summer weather as these are a chilled dessert treat
The first thing you will need is
4 cups of Rice bubbles

250 grams of Copha oil cut into pieces " you need to melt the copha in a small saucepan we melted ours in the microwave for 8 minutes on low
you need to mix all of the dry ingredients together once the Copha is melted add that in the dry mix and place the mixture into patty pans
I added some Christmas sprinkles and some icing Santa's and gingerbread men on the top

I have been wanting to try out the gorgeous Brunch food that is at The Tiny Giant Petersham for over a year now and today was the day I finally went and tried out their Brioche French toast it was the best French toast I have ever had 
The food is absolutely full of flavour & so good for a rainy Saturday
The interior inside was so cute I just loved the ceiling and the gorgeous pink walls with the floral garland
Brioche French toast served with strawberries, mixed berries, Canadian maple, salted caramel, mascarpone & Persian pashmak & bacon
