Diet?.....What diet?

I really could do with losing half a stone, but that blooming Lorraine Pascale has made a new series and the diet is off for the moment!

My daughter and I watched last nights episode earlier this evening and our faces lit up when she made cake pops.
 Oreos, Nutella AND chocolate! 
 What are girls to do?......... Go to the supermarket  and buy the ingredients to make them of course!

Off my daughter popped to Tesco and half an hour later, after.......





Whizzing the Oreos to bits.......


   

Scooping Nutella by the spoonful.........



Rolling into balls........




Melting chocolate, poking in lolly sticks and freezing for 15 minutes.......




a plate full of yumminess was made........



Just in time to watch the 'Great British Bake Off' while stuffing our faces!!

  5. These look amazing! I've never made cake pops. I didn't know that there was a new Lorraine Pascale baking show - I loved her other programmes. I Great British Bake Off - love it! Mary Berry is my heroine.

  9. Thank you for popping by and leaving me a comment. Yes you should ask your local store for some bunting tape, it probably will just be binned afterwards. It's so pretty. I have been reading back over some of your posts and I spotted the waffle maker, I'm going to investigate the Lakekand site!
    I was on the phone to my mum when LP was on cooking the other night and couldn't concentrate on what she was making, but those oreo pops did catch me eye!

  10. So much yummy fun, I love cookery programs as much as I love sewing. I make a similar oreo mixture called oreo truffles. Smash the oreos to tiny bits, mix with 1 pack of philadelphia, roll into balls and cover in milk chocolate. Eat when set, if you can wait that long.
