This recipe combines two of my faves… chocolate and peanut butter. It is a very easy no bake slice that can be whipped up in 10mins and ready to eat in an hour or so.

Lemon Curd
Lemon curd is just delicious. It is great for decorating cakes, dolloping on pancakes or simply layering on your vogels toast. Alternatively make a massive batch and give away as gifts for all your friends and family. This recipe is super easy and will keep in the fridge for a couple of weeks.

Lemon & Coconut Cakes
I tried this delightful cake at Kim Evan’s Little & Friday Cafe in Newmarket, Auckland. Not long after my friend, Izaak and I brought the book and began experimenting with Kim’s treats. These lemon cakes would have to be my absolute favourite and very popular amongst friends, family and colleagues. This recipe makes 12 mini cakes or 1 double layer cake. I have made these recipe many times in a range of sizes including mini cakes, a large cake and doubling this recipe to make a six layer cake (pictured below).
