Delightful Desserts That Are Loved Around The World

Lemon drizzle cake

This easy recipe uses buttermilk, but just substitute for milk with a squeeze of lemon juice if you don't have buttermilk to hand.

New York cheesecake

A cheesecake which is hard to beat. Because it's baked, very gently, it gives a smooth, creamy, silky texture.

Orange and almond cake

This marvellous cake, which is dense and soft, has a base of boiled oranges, which you cook until very soft, then blitz in a food processor.

Burnt Basque cheesecake

A delectable cheesecake which is an evergreen favourite, with good reason. It's crustless with a smooth, creamy filling made from sugar, single cream, cream cheese and yogurt.

Chocolate chip cookies

A really great chocolate chip cookie recipe is a must-have. The bonus with cookies is that you can freeze the raw dough and always have fresh soft and chewy bakes on standby.

Carrot cake

The mixture is very forgiving, so you can even make it a day ahead and leave in the fridge until you're ready to bake. The important thing is the frosting.

Vanilla layer cake

Here's a twist on a Victoria sponge cake, which gives a richer, more moist sponge. It contains more eggs than the classic, and milk.

Chocolate fondant

These individual desserts have a crisp exterior, but when you get your spoon in, a chocolatey sauce just oozes out. Everyone loves them.
