You're Going To Love Me...

Salted Peanut and Chocolate Toffee Tart
(via the new Master Chef Magazine)

...unless you're allergic to peanuts, or chocolate, or caramel, or the most amazing pastry on earth, that is.

or if you're not going to Nikki's Sew It Together Soiree tonight. You might not love me in that case.


Oh, and if you are going to Nikki's tonight but you're trying to lose weight. You might not love me then either.

Do you have any idea how hard it's been to have this made since Thursday evening and not cut into it? I might just have more self-control than I give myself credit for.

**************************************************************

Thanks for all the aqua v purple thoughts. I haven't made up my mind yet/still. I'll be sure to show the end result when I do.

There's still a couple of books left from my second hand book sale, in case you're interested.

  6. Oh Cathy - that looks so so good. I will be there, but I will be running a bit late from work, so it might be all gone by then...
    Which might actually be a good thing, because I am trying to lose weight right now, and unlike you, I'm not sure I have the will-power to resist!
    See you tonight.

  10. Oh my ... careme pastry. And nuts? Did you say nuts? I am going to be in heaven. (Would it be wrong to elbow one's way to the table?)

    It looks fabulous. More fabulous than my fromage straws and tapenade. But then the dessert should always be the star!

  22. I was just saying last night (whilst tucking into yet another peanut butter cookie) that the salty / sweet thing is my favourite taste on earth. Add to that coffee and chocolate, divine!
    I'm heading out to buy that magazine and I will thank you every time I tuck into it.
