Indulgent Recipes for Mother’s Day

For the most part, we try to eat healthily and be conscious of what we consume, but there are some dates in the calendar where this goes completely out of the window. Traditionally, Christmas and Easter are the times to indulge, but this year, why not treat your mum to some sinfully sweet treats this Mother’s Day? Or, just treat yourself, we won’t judge.

We have collected together our five favourite indulgent recipes from food blogs we can’t stop reading, they are all easy to make, delicious to eat and in absolutely no way healthy.
