Make a Death by Oreo cake! ♥


Helloo Lovely Peeps. I have been a bad blogger this week and not done much at all. I haven't bought many beauty products of late either because I am skint at the minute which is pretty rubbish. So a different post today. I'm going to show you a monstrously chocolatey recipe from Pinterest that I found. Follow me HERE. It is calorifically sinful, but a treat like this once in a while can't be too bad, and it is so sickly sweet MmmMmm!

You will need: Any Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix (with egg, oil and water to mix)
Any Chocolate Fudge Brownie Mix (also with egg, oil and water to mix)
Oreo biscuits - I chose double stuff, but normal will work too!
A brownie tin, greaseproof paper, bowl, whisk!


Pre - Heat oven to about 220oC! 


To begin, line your tin with greaseproof paper. Take your chocolate chip cookie mix, add the water, egg and oil and whisk it up in a large bowl. When it is the right consistency, without trying to eat the cookie dough mix, pour into the tin and spread evenly for the bottom layer.


Next, add Oreos in one layer to cover the cookie mix. (Feeling sick yet?)


Mix up the Chocolate fudge brownie mix until a smooth consistency and pour all over the top covering all the Oreos. Pop in the Oven for twenty mins, then turn the oven down to about 150oC and place the tin on the middle shelf for a further twenty minutes. This is because the brownie and chocolate chip cookie mix need to cook through! 


It should look a little something like this! Maybe not with a piece missing, but you know, I had to test it to make sure it was cooked ;) When it first comes out it's all gooey chocolatey goodness!


A Slice of this a day keeps the calories away! Enjoy!


Ciao for now XxX

Tickets and Cake ♥

Wow it's been a good few days since I have posted! Sorry. I just haven't had a lot of time on my hands since I've been back at work. It still doesn't really feel like I am leaving yet, and I only have 1 week and 4 days left, which alternatively equates to 9 more shifts then I'm outta there. It's creeping up on me now!
So anyway, the title is pretty much as it says on the tin, meaning our Marina and the Diamonds tickets have come! Weheyyyy! We are going down to Cambridge on 24th February to see her, staying over then continuing to Brighton just for a day out, staying there then coming back on the Sunday. So hopefully I will have a blog of nice pics after that! If you don't know of Marina and the Diamonds I would recommend checking her out on Youtube. She is a great alternative pop artist with a definitive, unique style, and we have been big fans since her first single 'Hollywood'. We saw her in London in November and she was amazing live.


Woohoo!!! <3

I haven't really been up to anything exciting. We cooked for Eds family on Sunday, Ed did dinner and I did pudding. I have a trademark chocolate fudge cake, and it is stodgy as anything but it tastes soooo good. Not recommended if you are calorie counting! 


The remaining slice! But I'm sure it isn't going to last very long. I'll let you into a secret...the link to the recipe ! It really is easy and doesn't take very long. The only thing you have to wait a couple of hours for is the Ganache Icing to set, but if you haven't got much time, I also recommend the Betty Crocker Chocolate Frosting. It's already made and only about £2. 

Unfortunately I have come out in a huge breakout around my lips. Ughh I hate spots, no matter how much concealer I use, the little blighters show through somehow. I have just purchased the Witch Blemish Stick, which was around £2.50. I have got a terrible habit of continuously picking at spots, then you get a never ending bleed and so on and so forth. Gross! However, I put this on top this morning and it has actually dried it up straight away. So at the moment, I do recommend this but we shall see if they clear up and how long they will stay away for.

Right, time for me to get ready for work, yet again, otherwise I'm probably going to be late. Hopefully I will blog sooner than later! I'm off to Cumbria on business with Ed on Friday but will be back Saturday hopefully with some pictures too.
Ciao for now xXx
