I’m not sure how that’s happened but it’s flown by in a flash and what a 10 years it’s been - you are such a placid, quiet and sensitive little soul, and we couldn’t be more proud of you and how far you’ve come, Isla. We love you so much - HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🤍✨

HEY IT’S MISS BRIESIES 🍎✨ Countless SCITT HEY IT’S MISS BRIESIES 🍎✨ 

Countless SCITT assignments, reflective worksheets and a crazy amount of lesson plans for evidence, two PGCE assignments, a maths retake and a LOT of actual teaching of lessons - meant that yesterday I found out that I was awarded QTS! 

I am officially a qualified primary school teacher! 

I can’t tell you how proud I am of myself. I worked so, so hard for this and to finish on such a high, as well as with a JOB at a wonderful school… I honestly couldn’t be more thrilled. 

I know that I’m also so lucky to have had the most amazing support within school, and outside of it, and I genuinely couldn’t have done it without my circle of fab colleagues, friends and amazing family. 🤍 I have to say my MH hasn’t been the best this year because imposter syndrome is just wild but I’m really trying to keep reminding myself that I’ve been given these opportunities for a reason. ✨

Just goes to show that a redundancy doesn’t mean that it’s the end of the road, but a ramp up to something that makes you 1000% happier. 

🍎 BRING ON ECT Year 1! 🙌🏻

milk chocolate cupcakes with oreo icing.

Hello!

tmbrxo

So yesterday I decided I felt like baking. This happens pretty much weekly, as something always tends to stress me out that little bit more than usual, and I find baking quite relaxing; it’s my escape, as ridiculously lame as that sounds.
I decided on milk chocolate cupcakes (with oreo pieces) and oreo icing- which might I add is the beez kneez, if I do say so myself. I think it’s my favourite topping on a cupcake ever, actually!

tmbrxo

I always bake from scratch because I like knowing ‘I’ve made that’ if that makes any sense whatsoever, but a boxed ingredients is absolutely fine. Now, I know I am in no way a master baker, I’m just showing you how I made these!

What you’ll need for the cupcakes (Primrose Bakery style, this is by the way):

3/4 slab of milk chocolate (or dark, I just prefer milk!)
85g of butter (I use Stork)
175g of brown sugar
2 large eggs
185g plain flour (sifted, always!)
3/4 tspn baking powder
3/4 tspn bicarbonate of soda
1 tiny pinch of salt
250 ml milk (semi-skimmed, whole, doesn’t really matter).
1 tspn vanilla essence
1 pack of Oreos

What you’ll need for the icing:

3/4 pack of Oreos
3-4 cups of icing sugar
150g butter
1 tspn vanilla essence
2 dashes of fresh cream

(This is just guessed as I popped everything I needed into the mixer and pushed the button, just add the ingredients one by one to ensure the icing doesn’t go too runny or too buttery!)
—————————————————————————————–

Preheat your oven to 170C and line your tray up with cupcake cases. I used a flat baking tray and put two cases within each other to keep the mixture from spilling over. Break the chocolate pieces into a bowl and melt. In another bowl, cream the butter and sugar until smooth (I strongly recommend a mixer guys and girls!) and separate the egg whites & yolks, beating the yolks for a few minutes and then popping into the mixture you just made. Add your melted chocolate! Yum yum.

Pop your flour, baking powder, bicarb and salt in another bowl, and put your milk (I put in about 200-220ml) and vanilla essence in a jug together. Now, put a little bit of flour in the mixture and beat. Pour in a little bit of your milk and beat. Now keep repeating this until everything is in (at this point, I crush some Oreos and add them to the mixture too, just to be different)! Now whisk your egg whites until soft peaks form and fold it into your mixture, FOLD, don’t beat! 🙂 Now, fill your cupcake cases (you could put an Oreo in beforehand too), two thirds full I would say, and pop in the oven for 20-25 minutes!

Whilst they are baking, clean everything up and start the icing. Finely crush your oreos in your mixer first and pop them in a bowl to the side. Now, it’s literally just putting the icing sugar and butter into the mixer, then the vanilla essence- beat. Do this bit by bit so you get the right consistency, I’ve had a lot of trouble in the past with that! Add your fresh cream for smoothness, no more otherwise it really will be runny! Take those Oreos you previously crushed and mix in with the rest of it!  

After your cupcakes have cooled down, decorate them with your icing. Of course, sprinkles are an option afterwards too! These cupcakes are super yummy and very good if you’ve got a mega sweet-tooth like myself. They come out super soft too, which is perfect. I enjoyed mine with a mug of tea yesterday afternoon whilst Isla played around in her walker. 🙂

If you try these out, please do let me know how you got on!
