American Style Chocolate Chip Cookies

Author: Fleeps
Here's a very easy recipe for those American Style Chewy Cookies. They are just like the yummy chewy cookies you get in coffee shops and bakeries. They take just 10 minutes to make and 10 minutes to bake, so great for kids, although they usually eat half the dough before it goes in the oven! I have been practicing this recipe, (which I adapted from one I found on Netmums) for a while so hope that it's fairly fool proof now!

Slow Roast Pork Shank with Red Wine Jus

Author: Fleeps
Pork shanks are half the price of lamb shanks and, in my humble opinion, very underrated. The meat is quite tough so does require that slow roasting on a low heat, but once it's in the oven that's it for a while and the preparation is minimal.

Low Fat Tiramasu

Tiramisu means "pick me up" in Italian as this dessert contains coffee to wake you up after your meal! I love Tiramisu, but it's simply calorific. An average serving contains between 600 and 1440 calories!* Sounds ridiculous, but if you consider the traditional recipe contains cream, mascapone cheese, eggs, booze and sugar.... yes, it's rather naughty, but seriously, 1440 calories? That's three quarters of the calories you require for one day!
