Macaroons and Cakes

We went to Laurent today...snapped some bad photos of good things while I was waiting for Miss A and Mr Octopus to get served. We have some Macaroons- more macaroons can be seen on my favourite blog in the whole world (so far!) Paris Breakfasts.




And some cakes...

Alcohol in puddings and cakes...

Well I had a thing for the good old chocolate self saucing pudding....now usually I put Kahlua in with the sauce ingredients and that is just delish!! But tonight I tried Grand Marnier instead with nearly equal success. Yum...(nearly equal only because I prefer Kahlua!!)

Speaking of alcohol my SIL made a Chocolate Guiness Cake and I think this is the recipe she used....I didn't taste it but apparently it was pretty yum!....and Nigella has one too of course...not a yum (don't get the whole blokes going ga ga over her, but they are a gullible lot afterall, it's the way she licks the beaters apparently..you see what I mean). Here's one adapted from Nigella's.

Then I remembered there's also a fair few Chocolate Whiskey Cakes (click for a recipe). Apparently the Wunschebros Cafe has a famous one! ....I haven't tried it, but if you do let me know how it turned out.
