Dairy-Free Ice Cream with Speckled Eggs
Its the LONG weekend and I knew I had to get this Dairy-Free Ice Cream with Speckled Eggs recipe up just in time to celebrate Easter! This recipe uses an ice-cream machine and the one I have is a Krupps that I purchased from Yuppiechef a while back. What if I don’t have an ice cream machine? If you don’t have an ice cream maker, the other option is to freeze the ice cream and in intervals, remove and whisk vigorously. So once transferred to a container, place in the freezer, take it out every 45 minutes and whisk to make the mixture light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer if…

Orange and Chocolate Bliss Balls
These healthy Orange and Chocolate Bliss Balls are delicious little morsels packed with energy and wholesome ingredients. Also known as ‘Jaffa balls’ (if using orange flavours), or ‘protein balls’, bliss balls are made by combining nuts, dates and coconut. I think the word Bliss must have come from the bright idea of adding cocoa or melted chocolate to these little bites. Don’t these Orange and Chocolate Bliss Balls look pretty! 😍 They are one of the best snacks to have on hand, especially when we are running around like a crazy person and need a quick on the go snack. Dates are naturally sweet, so these Orange and Chocolate…

Speckled Egg and Cocoa Nib Bark
So, Easter is around the corner and to celebrate I am making this super delicious Speckled Egg and Cocoa Nib Bark. If you have not ever tried using cocoa nibs, you are seriously missing out! These little nibs not only add an intense chocolate flavour to foods but also a subtle and satisfying crunch. You make think that they are too bitter but you’d be surprised! They have all the benefits of eating dark chocolate, without the added sugar. They are high in fibre, protein, and antioxidants, and contain the same mood-boosting chemicals that make a bar of dark chocolate so satisfying. I am obsessed with them at the moment…

Kayla Itsines Peanut Butter Protein Cookies
Today’s recipe is for these Peanut Butter Protein Cookies, from the Kayla Itsines Cookbook. I modified the recipe slightly as I used Eat Naked Peanut Butter, which contains raw honey for sweetness, so I didn’t need as much sugar as the recipe calls for. But, before we jump into the recipe, I wanted to take a moment to let you know that it is my blogs 1 year birthday! So to celebrate – I am hosting 7 days of giveaways on Instagram, so make sure you are following me to enter. You can read all about One Year of Le Famished Cat here. Now for the cookies!

Cadbury Dairy Milk – Easter Range
You guys must know by now that I have a severe weakness for chocolate. So I just HAD to let you know that Cadbury Dairy Milk has a new easter egg range. There are three different easter egg variants to choose from, including these Hollow Eggs that are filled with Astros and Whispers…😍 What’s more exciting than eating chocolate only to discover more chocolate hidden inside? And the best part, (in my opinion anyway) Cadbury Dairy Milk has now introduced marshmallow eggs called Fluffies! They come in a box of 30 or at some stores, you can find the individual marshmallow eggs. Let’s talk about these Fluffies. First off, the…
