Gooey Chocolatey Fudge Cake
December 17, 2008
I found another yummy looking recipe on the Jamie Oliver site, and tried it out at home.
It’s a really rich, squidgy in the middle, naughty, fudgey, chocoately, scrupmtious cake! The only think I changed from the receipe was that I added a bit more fudge (mixture of vanilla and chocolate fudge), and I found that it needed almost double the stated time in the oven (although that may just have been my oven!).
Try some of our fudge and 70% chocolate when you bake this cake!
You will find the receipe here.
Make your own chocolate gifts – Idea 3
December 1, 2008
Another easy idea for all the family!
Get some mixed salted nuts, and some digestive biscuits – put them in a plastic freezer bag, and give them a bit of a bash with a rolling pin. Dont crush them too much as you want some good sized chunks.
Melt milk or dark chocolate in a basin over some boilng water, add a little knob of butter and stir until its all melted and combined.
Coat the nut & biscuit chunks with the melted chocolate, and spoon in paper cases, or on a sheet of baking paper, and leave in the fridge until it has set.
Package the finished goodies up in a pretty bag, or a box, and make sure that you get to try some yourself!!
Let us know how you get on…
