A Dream Came True

For years, Saturday morning in my household meant watching Saturday Morning Kitchen on the BBC, at the time hosted by the wonderful James Martin. I would always turn to my mum, and say that one day I would want to go on that show, either as the two non-celebrity guests who get to try the food, or as a chef.

I got one step closer to that dream recently, when I went on a patisserie course at Cactus Kitchen in London. Upstairs is the cookery school, and downstairs is the Saturday Kitchen Studio. Walking past the studio door as they were rehearsing I gazed in longing to go on to the set. After the course we got the opportunity to take a look round the set and take photos. 

Cracked Brownie Cookies

Brownies. Cookies. Who doesn't love them. 

Put them both together and you get these amazing Cracked Brownie Cookies. 

Recipe from Ed Kimber - The Boy Who Bakes. Check it out and give it ago - its a really simple recipe to follow and gives great results!

The only thing I found, was if the cookie mixture is sitting waiting before baking, the cracks don't come out as well. So once the batter is made, get it on the tray and in the oven to bake. 

Enjoy! X
