HeB choices!

I know a few people that can't justify spending £1.95 per box on the SW Hifi bars. 

I feel like that some weeks too. 

But these are amazing alternatives and only £1 a box at the moment too! 

I haven't tried the banoffee or Jaffa cake ones yet but I hear they are to die for

You can have 2 as your HeB or they are 3 syns each!

Biscuits!

I posted a recipe a few weeks ago about some biscuits I made. Here's my second attempt, I made them smaller which was a good idea!

Here's the recipe again for those who missed it!

Ingredients:

35g porridge oats
Sweetener (add depending on how sweet you like things, I used 2 tbsp)
Orange extract 1tsp
2 eggs
And grated chocolate on top (2 syns)

PLEASE NOTE: I made 3 x this amount as I was taking it to the taster session!

Method:
Add all ingredients to bowl and combine
Put in mold and cook until golden brown
Enjoy!


Will be taking them to our taster session later at 7pm! You can eat a 1/3 of these and if you use the porridge oats allowance it would only be TWO SYNS!!!

Chocolate Orange Squares




4 eggs, separated
50g caster sugar
5 tbsp artificial sweetener
150g self raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp finely grated orange zest
Juice of 2 oranges
120g Kraft chocolate Philadelphia
Tin of mandarin oranges (drained of syrup)


Method
Preheat the oven to 190°C/170°C Fan/Gas 5. Line a cake tin with non-stick baking parchment, approximately 24cm x 17cm.

Place the egg yolks, caster sugar, sweetener, self raising flour, baking powder, orange zest and juice in a bowl and whisk until thick and pale.

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until softly peaked then fold them into the egg yolk mixture.

Spoon this mixture into the prepared cake tin and cook in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cake has risen and is firm to touch. Leave to cool.

Warm the chocolate Philadelphia in the microwave for a few seconds, then turn the cake upside down, remove the baking parchment and spread the chocolate Philadelphia over the top.

Cut into 24 pieces and place a mandarin orange segment on the top of each square.

I had a sweet tooth and just one of these squares is enough for me but at 2.5 syns each you can definately have another if you need to!

Let me know your thoughts.
