When it comes to baking, I always try my best but that doesn’t usually mean it’s going to turn out any good. I have had had so many kitchen disasters, in fact, only this weekend I tried to make Slimming World Chocolate Mug Puddings and after 3 tries I just had a chocolate biscuit from the cupboard, it was less syns anyways!
