I recently realised that a few weeks ago my blog turned 2! Last year I celebrated by sharing some throwback summer photos from when I was younger (you can check out that post here) however this year I wanted to share with you some of my favourite baking recipes that I've found over the years or that have been passed down by family members through the years. The plan is to share a new recipe every other day this week starting today!
This recipe is one of my favourites and it was originally found here
