How to Make Christmas Chocolate Brownies

Step 1

Heat oven to 180℃/160℃ fan/gas 4. Melt the dark chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water and stir until smooth, remove from the heat and leave to cool.

Step 2

Whisk the eggs and Tate and Lyle Golden Caster Sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until thick and creamy.

Step 3

Pour the cooled chocolate mix into the bowl and gently fold in.

Step 4

Next fold in the sifted flour and cocoa until the mixture looks fudgy.

Step 5

Stir in the white and milk chocolate pieces and pour the batter into a greased and lined 20cm square tin.

Step 6

Bake the brownies for 25 minutes until the top looks shiny and crusty. Cool in the tin and then lift out in one piece and cut into triangles.

Step 7

Decorate with pretzels, googly eyes and red smarties for Rudolph faces and use icing pens and sprinkles to make colourful Christmas trees.

Step 8

These chocolate brownies will keep for up to two weeks in an airtight tin or frozen for a month.

Sorry, we couldn't wait...

Mille-Feuille might be the prettiest dessert going, but just like a sunset, their beauty is gone before you know it!

(Especially if we're around... absolutely delicious.)

Up close and personal with a custard slice...

We could just fancy being tucked in under that crispy puff pastry sheet! 
When's the last time you had one of these? 

Recipe coming next week...
We knew it was going to be a showstopper, but this might be bordering on an eye-popper!

A picture-perfect cake tower, this delicate and airy sponge is bursting with summer's juiciest berries and scattered with crystallized rose petals...

In other words, it's a big shindig-only bake, so don't go hiding it away! It deserves to be seen! Recipe in bio.
Wow @georgiahearn__ knows what people like... chocolate and pudding! 

Made with @tateandlylesugars and @lylesgoldensyrup, this looks like a little bowl of happiness to us.
We know you're already sweet enough, but a bit of Tate & Lyle Sweetener wouldn't go amiss on #NationalTeaDay! 

300 servings in one easily storable dispenser, it's an aspartame-free, low-calorie treat. 

Which manages to taste just as sweet!
A whole day dedicated to one TEA!

Yes it's here, National Tea Day and the ideal time to share one of our favourite shortbread recipes using fragrant Earl Grey tea. 

Here's how to make Earl Grey & Lemon Shortbread:

Prep Time – 30 mins (4 hours to chill)
Yield – 12 – 16 (dependant on the size of your cutters)

Ingredients 

Biscuits
50g Tate & Lyle Fair Trade – Pure Cane Icing sugar
250g unsalted butter
2 tbsp of Earl Grey Tea
220g plain flour
Pinch of salt

Icing
A squeeze of lemon
100g Tate & Lyle Fair Trade – Pure Cane Icing sugar

Instructions

Combine your tea leaves and butter, leaving overnight preferably to infuse. You can cover in a bowl and leave to the side as this mix shouldn’t be chilled.
Add your butter mix to a bowl your sugar and combine, then add the flour salt until a dough forms
Roll out your dough mix until even – about half an inch thick and cut with your biscuit cutter.
Pop onto a baking sheet and into a preheated oven at 180°C/ 160°C fan/ gas mark 4/ 350°F and bake for 15 mins. Keep and eye on them as they can burn quickly.
Whilst they cool make your icing and then drizzle generously once the biscuits are completely cold.
If Dark Muscovado's a little too strong for you, this bag might just be your baking's saviour!

With enough molasses to keep things moist and sticky, our Light Muscovado boasts a buttery, caramel flavour with fewer hints of treacle.

A subtle change that always makes bakes better...

It might sound odd... but anyone who's had this slightly sour dairy knows it doesn't taste like butter!

Just squeeze a bit of lemon juice in your standard whole or semi-skimmed if you're ever in need.
