I know I don't normally do food posts... but today Big Sister and I had a mega marathon 5 hour baking session. Little Sister is hosting Christmas this year and has 28 people sitting down to Christmas lunch!!!! Little sister also lives on a farm... so all the guests will staying several days over the Christmas period as it is too far to travel to the farm for just one meal. Being nice sisters we offered to take care of all the morning and afternoon tea's for the 28 diners for the few days around Christmas day.
One of the guests has coeliac disease, so all but one of our baked goodies is gluten free.
1. Mini Christmas puds. We adapted these from an Australian Good Taste recipe (pg 18 December 2011). We used Arnotts Rice biscuits instead of Scotch fingers.
2. Fudge... My sister must make this a lot because she had the recipe in her head.
3. Christmas chequerboard coconut ice. My daughter brought this recipe home from school once day. She hand wrote it out so I cant source if for you. However it's such a classic google will help you find a version.
4. Gluten Free Fruit mince pies. This is a recipe I ripped from a magazine last year- I cant recall the magazine.
5. Chocolate Oatmeal bars. My sister sourced this recipe here. This was the only non-Gluten free recipe we made.
6. Amaretti biscuits. I used a recipe from a book called Biscuit and Slice Bible.
7. Almond clusters. Sister made this up using the melted white chocolate left over from the mini-puddings and some roasted almonds.
9. Cherry ripe slice. I made a double batch of the cherry bite mixture and turned it into a slice. I made a (gluten free) shortbread base using a recipe from the Biscuit and Slice Bible, then added a layer of the cherry mixture and topped it off with a thin layer of dark chocolate.
