Millionaires' Shortbread - a sweet treat!

This is absolutely yummy!

I bought this packet of Caramel Shorcake - made by Thorntons. 

Here in Scotland we call it millionaires' shortbread.  

These bite sized pieces look very small, but it is a very sweet treat!

Its so easy to make yourself.

First make your shortbread and bake.

When cool - cover with some Nestlé Carnation caramel.

Then melt some chololate in a bowl and cover caramel.

When set - cut into whatever shape/size you want.

I have to tell you that it is very sweet, but absolutely delicious.

Perfect with a wee cuppa!

Enjoy!

Love, Liz

Chocolates

Girls, this is one post you will really thank me for - if you haven't tried them already, then you must try -

Raffaello chocolates!

They are wonderful!  If you like creamy white chocolate, nuts and coconut, you'll love these.

They are made by the people who make Ferrero Rocher chocs, but are ten times nicer, in my opinion.  They come in a lovely red and white box.  Hubby got me a box for Christmas, and these are all that are left - I limit myself to a few a day, although I could easily eat them all!

Try them …. go on …. you know you want to ….!!!!!

Love, Liz

Ice Cream Float

Oh joy!!

What a treat – ice cream from the Esplanade Cafe in Greenock – the best in the west!

Made an ice cream float with Barr’s cream soda – enjoy it with Barr’s ginger beer as well.

Then had snowball and ice – ice cream with Lee’s snowballs – wonderful.

These are usually a summer treat, but taste just as magical in winter.

Love, Liz
