To get ready for the cooler weather that’s bound to arrive sooner or later, today I’m sharing a recipe for coconut brownies. They’re perfect for any occasion, but don’t gobble them all up—they’re pretty filling! I often make these to bring to work for a break with coworkers, as a weekend treat, or for dinner parties. It’s very quick to prepare, takes about 30 minutes to bake, and a sprinkle of coconut flour is optional—plus, it’s impossible to mess this up! It’s one of those recipes to always keep on hand for last-minute guests and when you’re short on ideas: this classic is always there to save the day!

Chocolate cake is a treat that every child goes crazy for, but adults love it too. Today I’m sharing a version I’ve adapted to suit adults’ tastes, but it can easily be adjusted for children by omitting the rum; the rest of the recipe remains the same. I find that rum gives this cake a unique and distinctive aftertaste, and it pairs perfectly with dark chocolate. I use the bottle cap as my measuring unit for rum. The amount can vary depending on your taste; I use one cap for every egg yolk I put in the cake, so in this case, that’s 4 caps. All you have to do is try it and let me know what you think by commenting here or on social media!
