Ms Daim Bites


You will need:
200g Butter
330g Porridge oats
50g brown sugar
6 Tablespoons of golden syrup
2 Bars of white chocolate
A pack of mini Daims

Method:

Heat the butter and and golden syrup in a saucepan on a low heat until the butter has melted, add in the sugar and mix the porridge oats in making sure they are covered. As you can probably work out these Daim na bites are pretty high on the sugar count but everyone needs a treat now and then. Once it is all mixed together you can spoon it into a greased tin and bake on 140oc heat until the flapjack is golden brown, I would say about 25 minutes but it totally depends on how gooey you what yo bites. Once cooled simply melt the white chocolate onto the top of the flapjack and add the Daims. I personally cut these up pretty small and the boys agreed you don't need too much else you wont be moving for a while. 

A super quick and easy recipe for all those full time hustlas who have got more than 100 things to do in their days! And whilst your getting your bake on you definitely need to be listening to this, it couldn't be any other track yo. SUCH A BIG JAM!!!

LL Cool Jellies


You will need:


1 Pack of Strawberry Jelly
1 tin of Custard
Whipped Cream
Hundreds and Thousands

Method:


This is a super easy dessert to make for all the full time hustlers out there putting in the hours but wanna indulge in a sweet treat whilst loungin and looks aesthetically pleasing to present. Simply mix the Jelly cubes with hot water and pour them into cups, leave to set over night before you spoon second layer of custard onto them. Now if you do have the time you can whip up yo own custard however a good tin of ambrosia never hurt a playa. Use whipped cream to top these off and then use whatever topping you want to decorate, personally I do like the classic hundreds and thousands for a OG look! 

You could also add some fruit to the jelly to give it the trifle vibes but personally I like my jelly pretty straight up. Whack this tune on and get yo LL Cool Jelly on.

Ghostface Vanillas


You will need:
225g Butter
225g Caster sugar
3 eggs
4 Tablespoons milk
Vanilla essence
50g Poppy seeds

For the Icing:
150g Cream cheese
50g Butter
200g Icing sugar
Vanilla Essence

Method: 

These are super easy to make, I actually wanted to make the loaf version of this bake but then remembered cakes are easier to share and I am seeing my friends Lizzie and Martyn tomorrow who definitely expect a cake or two. So you need to beat the butter and sugar together, add the milk and the eggs and cream the mixture. Throw in the poppy seeds and sift the flour in, once the mixture is consistent you can then add a few splashes of vanilla essence and you are ready to spoon into the muffin cases. Pop them in the oven on 160C until they have risen just above the muffin case, this usually takes around 20 minutes but be sure they are cooked in the middle by popping a skewer through the cakes making sure no mixture comes off.

You should already have some club bangers on now, maybe go for Supreme Clientele or Wallabee Champ to whip up your icing though to be honest I do get a little carried away with the both of those albums so play it safe if need be playas.

I always seem to have difficulty with cream cheese frosting so sometimes end up adding up to 50g more of one thing and sort of just roll with the ingredients, I definitely added in more Icing sugar than I measured out as the icing was thin and sloppy which is not what I'm about. Mix the butter and cream cheese together and then sieve in the icing sugar and again splash the vanilla essence into the mix. 

You should make 12 muffins or maybe even more but I always like to make sure they are pretty full, sprinkle a few poppy seeds on top for effect and wham bam the Ghostface Vanillas are back like that. 

I already knew 100% what track I would post for these, this is my ultimate favourite Ghostface track and features heavily on my running playlists...''How many cakes we bake y'all...ONE''
