Paint the inside of your favourite ring with the base coat, let it dry for about 10 minutes et voilĂ !

No-bake chocolate cheesecake
There is nothing I love more then chocolate and cheesecake and baking so of course chocolate cheesecake for me is the Ian Somerhalder of all desserts.
and what better way to use up left over chocolate and Philadelphia then to make a no-bake chocolate cheesecake. Reason why I say no-bake is because unless I pick up a baked one from the Hummingbird bakery I would rather whip up something I can eat the same day then having to wait overnight. Plus it tastes so indulgent you wouldn't notice the difference between it being baked and refrigerated.
Ingredients:
150g digestive biscuits
45g butter
1tbsp caster sugar
100g icing sugar
75g milk chocolate melted
75g dark chocolate melted
2tbsp cocoa powder mixed with a little hot water
1 tub cream cheese
Preparation method:
1. Crush digestive biscuits and mix with melted butter and 1tbsp of caster sugar. Then press into a cake tin that has been lined with baking paper and refrigerate.
2. Beat the cream cheese and icing sugar together and fold in the melted chocolate and cocoa powder and mix thoroughly.
3. Spread into tin on top of crushed biscuits, refrigerate for about two hours and serve.

Banana Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting
The last time I remember eating Banana cake was when my friend baked it at 3am hungover and it just tasted sooo gooood. As I had 2 bananas lying around I wasn't exactly going to let them go to waste and rather then making my usual grilled banana and peanut butter sandwich which is lushhh, I decided on banana cake adding my own twist peanut butter frosting as I just can't get enough of peanut butter.
Banana Cake Ingredients:
Serves roughly 10
125g butter
150g caster sugar
1tsp vanilla extract
1 egg beaten
2 ripe bananas mashed
190g self raising flour
60ml milk
Peanut Butter Frosting Ingredients:
1 cup of peanut butter smooth or crunchy
2tbsp butter
3tbsp milk
1tsp vanilla extract
2tbsp cream cheese
2tbsp milk
Preparation Method
Prep: 10mins Cook: 35mins
1. Grease and line a 2lb loaf tin (I used a baking tray). Melt butter, sugar and vanilla in a saucepan over a medium heat.
2. Remove from heat and add the mashed bananas, mix well.
3 . Add egg, mix well.
4. Stir in the flour and milk.
5. Pour into the prepared tin and sprinkle with a tsp of demerara sugar to give a crunch topping (optional)
6. Bake at 150 degrees fan oven for 35 minutes until skewer comes out clean.
7. Take out of oven and allow to cool on wire rack whilst making frosting.
8. To make frosting combine all the ingredients into a bowl and whisk until light and fluffy.
9. Frost cake and cut into pieces (although I found it easier to cut first and frost individually)
10. Bon Appetit!
