Get the latest Indulgent recipes from Group Recipes. http://www.grouprecipes.com/tag/indulgent Adapted from Cookie Madness to eliminate the egg and dairy, and include chocolate covered espresso beans! Talk about a double dose of antioxidants in a cookie! http://www.grouprecipes.com/107671/red-wine-and-espresso-bean-cookies.html The Aberdeen Buttery or Rowie is a breakfast roll similar in style to the French Croissant. The Buttery is unique to the North East of Scotland and originated (as the name suggests) as having an extremely high fat content and made by fishermen during the long periods at sea. The lard and butter stored well and when the Buttery was cooked, it helped insulate the men from the cold winds and conditions of the North Sea. I must add this is an acquired taste, but we always force these Butteries on vistors to the city and most people find them tasty if not a bit fatty for their taste. Bakers across the North East of Scotland jelously guard their age old recipes. Most people and households have their favourite bakers as every Buttery or Rowie is different from shop to shop. In Aberdeen there is the famous Aitkens rolls, light and crispy. Chalmers produce a more softer and equally tasty roll. But if you head out to places like Buckie, Portknockie, Cullen and Portsoy which are all fishing villiages, the variety of rolls is amazing. All so different and all perfect in their own unique way. I have been practicing trying to make Butteries for around 20 odd years and it is only now I am comfortable about putting my own tried and tested recipe onto the web. http://www.grouprecipes.com/106737/aberdeen-traditional-butteries-or-rowies.html The blend of dark chocolate, cocoa powder, whole grain flour and cranberries combine to make a vegan, low-sugar, low fat treat you can delight in having seconds of! http://www.grouprecipes.com/100507/antioxi---muffins.html A smooth, creamy coconut base envelops bites of both baked and raw cookie - just as if the baker was called away mid-production! Uses my "Double Chip Coconut Drops" recipe(http://www.grouprecipes.com/97725/double-chip-coconut-drops.html). Makes about 1 quart (4 cups). Adapted from Chocolate & Zucchini. http://www.grouprecipes.com/98035/interrupted-baker-coconut-ice-cream.html Sweet, light and stuffed with chocolate chips, these jumbo muffins are decadent - a perfect treat after school or next to a steaming cup of coffee! The nutmeg is so subtle you barely notice it, but it harkens memories of donut shops! http://www.grouprecipes.com/97467/rich-yogurt-muffins.html There is NO mistaking the involvement of the coffee liqueur in this rich cake - not only is the crumb spiked with Kahlua but the chocolate and cream cheese filling has a tipple too. Buttermilk, butter and oil make this cake super moist, while layer upon layer of flavour is created by dark brown sugar, dark cocoa powder, high-quality chocolate and espresso! Mesquite flour is optional as it's not readily found but it gives an undefinable quality to the flavour and scent of the finished recipe - lightly smoky, sweet, and a blend of chocolate, cinnamon and mocha. The buckwheat flour is also optional but definitely reccommended for tenderness, as is the extra Kahlua flavouring. This is delicious, but definitely NOT a cake for kids! http://www.grouprecipes.com/95328/stans-kahlua-cake.html Richly embellished with dark and milk chocolate, these brownies are a sinful treat! http://www.grouprecipes.com/94870/bewitching-brownies.html I kicked up this version of the reg. sheperds pie by sauteeing the mushrooms in wine, and adding two palmfuls of cheese inbetween the potatoes and meat mixture and added double the sour cream in the potatoes!! http://www.grouprecipes.com/90706/ericas-naughty-sheperd-pie.html This is a Guyanese specialty also known as Salara. I found this fantastic looking recipe here on Cookery Corner: http://cookerycorner.blogspot. com/2007/09/amish-friendsh ip-bread-salara.html, and played around with a few of the ingredients, bringing this bread to an even higher level of decadence!
