CHOCOLATE BOWL

This is a must try guys. My hubby tried this creative chocolate bowls made from ballons. I filled each with cake slice and fresh pineapple slices. You could also serve with  icecream scoops too. Not only kids but also adults would adore these chocolaty dessert. These goodies are always better anytime when you could eat the bowl ;)

NOTE: You can make these bowls look attractive by dipped the top of the ready chocolate bowls into the melted chocolate and then pressing them into sprinkles. I wanted to try that but i did not had enough sprinkles for that. So do try these and let me know the results ;)

For the instruction and for the video we referred  Here.

There is nothing better than tempting chocolate ice cream. I have prepared homemade creamy chocolate ice cream with only 3 ingredients.

Nothing beats homemade ice cream especially for kids ;) For extra crunchy bite you can add choco chips or chocolate sprinkles.

Chocolate sauce for garnish.

METHOD
In a big bowl, transfer condensed milk. Add cocoa powder and mix well till it forms into a creamy paste. In another bowl add chilled heavy cream. Whisk the cream using hand mixer till you get a fluffy texture. Once its done, add little by little chocolate mixture and gently mix it. Use folding method. Once its done, transfer the mixture into a air tight container and freeze for 6 to 8 hours.
Scoop out, drizzle with chocolate sauce and serve chill

CHOCO BREAD

I was carving for chocolatly dish when I got an idea of making this choco bread using hershely's

chocolate syrup. I know my previous post was also based on chocolate syrup. But the only difference is that was drink and this is sweet bread . Just wanted to give it a try for the first time. It worked up well and my little gal too loved it.

INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 Cup Maida.

2 Egg.

1 tsp Baking soda.

2 tsp Vanilla Essence.

1 Cup Sugar.

1 Stick of butter.

1/4 Cup Hershey's chocolate syrup.

Chocolate chips. (optional)

METHOD

Preheat the oven for 350 degree.

Combine maida and baking soda together. Keep aside.

In an bowl beat the eggs well till its becomes fluffy. Then add sugar, vanilla essence, oil and chocolate syrup. Mix well.

To this add maida baking soda mixture slowly. Stir and make sure no lumps are formed.

Pour the batter in the greased vessel nd bake them for 45 min or until it turns brown all over and well cooked.

UPSIDE DOWN APPLE CAKE

Heard of pineapple upside down cake, but never with apples until I browsed net. There were few leftover  apples and apple juice in my fridge so thaught of jumping into making an apple cake. With a touch of cinnamon powder , I loved the flavour of caramalised sugar with apples. That was great. 

INGREDIENTS

1 Apple.

2 Eggs.

1 3/4 Cup All purpose flour.

1/4 Cup Oil or butter.

3/4 Cup Sugar.

1 tsp Vanilla extract.

2 tsp Baking powder.

1/4 Cup Apple juice.

Few chunks of apples.

FOR CARAMALISATION.

5 tsp Sugar.

1 tsp Cinnaman powder.

Drop of water.

METHOD

Preheat oven to 325.

Peel the apple skin and cut into semicircle slices and arrange them on a baking bowl.

Heat a pan and add sugar,cinnamon powder and drop of water on medium heat till sugar starts to melt. Make sure not to stir. Its enough to shake the pan to spread the heat. Later when the sugar starts melting into brown colour, immediately pout it on the arranged sliced apples evenly. Take care not to let the syrup boil or burnt else it will taste bitter.

Meanwhile whisk the eggs in a bowl. Add sugar and baking powder and give a cont stir till its light and fluffy. Add oil and apple juice and the chunks of apples followed by adding the flour little by little making sure not to form any lumps. Gently pour the mixture evently on the caramalised apple slices. Bake them for 1 hour or until the cake is done. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for half an hour. Now the fun part comes. Carefully turn them over on a platter and lift up the bowl. Serve just as it is.

A short note for the baking beginners.

Baking is just a simple easy process that everyone would prefer to bake food thesedays rather than standing infront of stove. Just mix all the ingredients , set time and the oven makes the rest of all. Makes life easier and the taste is just healthy and perfect.
