🍫 It’s Friday, and we’re closing out the Farm Stay Cosy Baking series with an absolute showstopper.

Sally-Ann at Millmoor Farm Holidays, Cheshire has a positively hectic life, running a 265-acre farm on the Welsh border with six holiday cottages and more animals than we can count, all desperate to meet guests. Chickens, goats, donkeys, dogs, you name it.

But Sally-Ann is a huge baking fan, and when she’s not running the farm she’s in the kitchen. This week she’s shared her Millionaire’s Brownie, inspired by the brilliant Jane’s Patisserie, and it is exactly as indulgent as it sounds. Three layers. Pure heaven.

Here’s what you’ll need:

The brownie:
🍫 195g dark chocolate & 195g butter
🥚 3 large eggs
🍬 275g caster sugar
🌾 90g plain flour & 35g cocoa powder
🍪 200g triple chocolate chips

The caramel:
🧈 200g butter
🍯 4 tbsp golden syrup
🥛 397g condensed milk (one whole tin)

The topping:
🍫 200g milk chocolate
🤍 100g white chocolate, swirled

Swipe for the full method.

Be careful, the caramel gets seriously hot. Stir constantly and watch out for splashes. ⚠️

It’s been the most wonderful series sharing these recipes from our incredible Farm Stay UK members.

Thank you to every farmer who sent one in, and thank you to everyone who’s been baking along with us this autumn. 🍂

👉 Save this for the weekend.

It's Friday, and Farm Stay Cosy Baking is back with Recipe No. 5, and this one comes with a lovely story behind it.

Annie is the daughter of Brian and Sue at Oxen Close Farm in the heart of Nidderdale, Harrogate. She trained as a professional chef, and when her first son was born she set up Barney's Farmhouse Foods, making award-winning preserves and bakes from the farmhouse kitchen using home-grown and local ingredients wherever possible.

Her bakes go straight into the welcome packs for guests staying at the cottages.

This week she's shared her Fruit Loaf, and the secret is in the overnight soak.

Strong tea, mixed dried fruit and light muscovado sugar left overnight to do their thing. The result is a rich, deeply flavoured loaf that tastes like proper autumn on a plate.

Here's what you'll need:
🍇 340g mixed dried fruit
🍚 227g light muscovado sugar
☕ 300ml strong hot tea (2 tea bags, don't skimp)
🌾 284g self-raising flour
🥚 1 egg, beaten

Swipe for the full method, and whatever you do, don't skip the overnight soak. It's where all the magic happens.

Annie's award-winning preserves and bakes are available directly from Oxen Close Farm or at local shows, keep an eye out for Barney's Farmhouse Foods.

It's Friday, and Farm Stay Cosy Baking is back with Recipe No. 4 and this one is a proper showstopper.

The team at Church Farm Cottages, Bath have shared their take on a classic carrot cake, inspired by the brilliant The Hummingbird Bakery Cookbook. Their twist? They keep it as a simple two-layer cake rather than three. Just as delicious, a little more manageable on a cosy autumn afternoon.

If you don't already own the Hummingbird Bakery Cookbook, this is your sign to get one. 📖

Here's what you'll need for the cake:
🥕 300g grated carrots
🌾 375g self-raising flour
🥚 3 eggs
🫙 300ml sunflower oil
🍂 Cinnamon & mixed spice
🍬 300g caster sugar

And for that cream cheese frosting (the best bit):
🧁 600g icing sugar
🧈 100g butter
🥛 250g full-fat cream cheese
🌰 Walnut halves to finish (optional but highly recommended)

Swipe for the full method and one golden rule before you start: don't ice it until it's completely cold. Trust us on that one.

Church Farm Country Cottages sits on a working sheep farm in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, just 5 miles from Bath, cosy cottages, an indoor heated pool and dogs very much welcome. Exactly the kind of place where an afternoon of baking feels like the perfect thing to do.
