Pull Apart Bread Tips

So we have had some questions about how to construct a pull apart loaf.  You can find the Thermomix recipe here on the Recipe Community and basically you can use any bread recipe you like.  The real questions are about what it means to assemble it in a concertina fashion.

Meg’s Easy Sausage Rolls

I have always made these sausage rolls but had to mix the sausage meat by hand…….ewwwww!  Not my favorite job!  But this time I thought I would save time and get the TMX to do the hard work for me.  These sausage rolls are fool proof (this fool can make them), and you can “hide” […]

Whoopie!!!!!……..It’s Whoopie Pies

Well, if you are a fan of trashy American TV, then you are bound to have heard them mention Whoopie Pies.  I had never seen one, nor eaten one until I found this random article online about how Whoopie Pies were the new “in” thing in Perth and had replaced Macarons as the “it” thing to make.  Apparently, Perth […]

  Question: What do you make when you want something nice for afternoon tea and have almost not butter (or cream to make butter), no eggs and next to no milk (ok ok – there was enough for coffee, but I wasn’t giving that up!)? Answer: You get your creative hubby to use the Thermovixen […]
