Just signed up! Really hoping to make a success of this......I'm a full time, sleep deprived mummy, to our two young girls. Sleep deprivation, boredom and stress are my main triggers.....sweet stuff is my downfall, so looking for good alternative sweet treats 🙂

I love sweet treats, too! I've been making Tom Kerridge's popcorn bars (90 cal a bar) and they're great. I don't normally like dark chocolate, but combined with salted popcorn and marshmallows it is all strangely satisfying and one bar is enough because the chocolate is so rich. I'm sure the recipe will be on the BBC website, but if it's not just let me know.

Welcome, nice to have you. Looking forward to getting to know you. True you must be very busy running after small ones, will be eaier with drop weight. Have a great time!

Another advantage of them is that my daughter (6) doesn't like them because of the dark chocolate! We have to make ordinary rice crispie cakes for her (with hidden marshmallows), and I'm not tempted because these are too good!
