Tonight I made some stuff for Christmas!

Well this year me and my fella are heading to my sister-in-laws mums house for Christmas so, not really knowing what the etiquette is, i pet to make a couple of puddings! 

Now then, banoffee pie and nutella cheesecake are in the fridge setting , waiting for a good dollop of whipped cream and some decoration tomorrow night :-)

I'm right excited for Christmas this year! I've got a brand new nephew to play with and, by the looks of it, a fair few bottles of cava to get through! Game on! One more day to work then I'm on it! 

First the banoffee pie!
Digestives blitzed
Buttery biscuit base setting in the fridge
and on with the bananas
Ariel view (there's a few of these)
I cheated and got ready-made caramel
Another ariel view,  just the whipped cream to go tomorrow!
And now for the Nutella cheesecake...  

Cream cheese first...
Add lots of Nutella-y goodness!
Mixed it up with some icing sugar...
Gave it a whirl...
Popped it onto another buttery biscuit base!
And ta-da!!!  It's now in the fridge with the banoffee!
As a wee aside, I attempted to make cranberry sauce.  I just followed a basic recipe but added some clementine juice to it tonight to try and make it a bit nicer :)

I hope it goes with the turkey!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!
