Stuff it, I made BROWNIES… Hot Chocolate Brownies, to be precise, sprinkled with chocolate chips and toasted mini marshmallows. Rich and gooey and a little bit of lovely when you need it most. Kettle’s on, lovelies. Any takers? ☺️ #WurdyBakes

A sudden rush of new followers has arrived - hello! (I think I’ve been added to a starter pack somewhere?) See my pinned post for details of my books and if you fancy buying any of them, that would be rather lovely. I’ll pop the kettle on for a welcome cuppa (might need a bigger teapot now…) 🫖💕
