'It says something about my rugby career that I get recognised more now as The Hungry Hooker' - Connacht and Ulster player turned baker Jonny Murphy
Briefly

Jonny Murphy, once a professional rugby player, faced post-concussive syndrome, prompting his retirement. Turning to baking with his grandmother brought him comfort and led to the creation of his popular recipe, the Fifteens Cheesecake, which combines traditional ingredients into a viral dessert. His unique creations, showcased on social media, have garnered a significant following, culminating in a deal for his debut cookbook. Baking not only offers him a remedy for his struggles but has also connected him with a community that appreciates his culinary creativity.
"Cheesecake's great. Fifteens are great, I thought: 'What would happen if I put them together?'"
"It was also, I'm happy to tell him, my choice of birthday cake when my son and I made it last month."
