$Luscious, soft, tangy homemade cream cheese, made in minutes with ingredients you probably already have in the kitchen? Absolutely. Trust me on this, once you make it, you may never go back to store-bought cream cheese again, especially as it is very cheap to make, and the flavour is rich and delicious.It works like this. Milk + Heat + a souring agent = Little Miss Muffet’s favourite dish, curds and whey. Drain off the whey, whizz the curds with a little salt in a food processor until they are smooth and creamy and you’re done. 30 minutes tops. After that, you can add flavourings to your heart\'s delight - or use it for baking - or like I usually do, just spread on toast with a big dollop of berry jam. Yum.Read more and get the recipe now on my website: https://daysofjay.com/2020/06/30/homemade-cream-cheese/or click the link in my bio.We\'ve made it through another tempestuous month.

$I was lucky enough to spend some time last year showing my wonderful cousin Kim and her fabulous friends Carolyn, Kelly and Lianne around Cyprus. We had an absolute blast, squeezing in as many of the sights and sounds as we could in the few days they were there. Along the way, we cooked loads of delicious food, and drank plenty of the girls signature drink - the Espresso Martini, just the sort of rocket fuel you need when time is short and there\'s a lot to do!While we were making Espresso Martinis back in Munich I got to thinking that coffee liqueur must be easy to make at home, and surely less sickly sweet than the big name brands. After a bit of experimentation, I think I’ve arrived at exactly the right recipe, and you’ll be amazed how quick it is to make.Read more and get the recipe on my website:https://daysofjay.com/2020/06/26/homemade-coffee-liqueur/or click the link in my bio.Have you tried making homemade liqueur?
