My mum found some old recipes from my Great Nana in her handwriting, they were quite hard to read but we managed to read them. I decided to try and make her Bounty Bars, they were delicious. You spread melted chocolate on some greaseproof paper and when its set you spread a mixture of icing sugar, condensed milk and coconut over it then pour another layer of melted chocolate and wait for it to set. They were so good, better than the shops!! I delivered some to Mrs MacDonald and she said they were lovely.

My Great Nana Gemmell was an excellent baker, she did pancake making displays at the Highland Show and received letters from as far away as Canada from ladies who saw her display and were now using her recipe. She won an award for her pancake making. I thought i would try making them in school and my friends really enjoyed them.
