Mawaddah, that doesn't look horrible!! :D Can I have a piece?

:sl:

Hey brothers and sisters. I had this idea of starting a cookery club where we can swap recipes. It'd be sooooooo good cuz we're all from different parts of the world and we can share some of our fav dishes here. I know students living away from home miss home-made food. So why not try to make it yourself?!

I'm gonna start off with a really delicious and easy recipe. Anyone can make it. Don't let it put you off just cuz you've never even boiled an egg ;D
I am only having to cook for myself these days, so it's all simple and quick to make food. That's when I had this idea. Brothers don't be put off by cooking. It's well worth the effort and if it makes you feel any better, just remember that the world's best chefs are men looooool :D

This recipe contains fishfingers. Don't let that put you off. wait till you taste it lol. My bro used to request me to make it for him when he was going out on day trips. So you can imagine it can't be as bad as the fishfingers make it sound.

Ok here goes...... (BTW, this is a snack, not a dish)

....



happy cooking :)

Nadia

Ice Cream Pie
Ingredients

Crust
4 cups crushed cookies
1/2 cup melted margarine

Filling
1 liter chocolate ice cream
1 liter vanilla ice cream
16 ounces whipped cream

Topping
16 ounces whipping cream
1/2 cup sugar

Method:
Crust:.
1. Mix the crushed cookies and butter together. Pat into the bottom of a greased pan.
Filling:.
1. Allow the ice creams to melt a bit.
2. Mix about half the whip cream with the chocolate ice cream. Beat it until smooth. Spread on top of the crust. Place in freezer. It has to be frozen because if you add the other ice cream, it will mix with it.
3. Mix the vanilla ice cream with the rest of the cool whip. Spread it on top of the frozen ice cream. Place in freezer.
Topping:.
1. Beat the whipping cream until light and fluffy. Add the sugar and continue beating. Spread the whip cream on top of the frozen ice cream pie. Decorate with fudge, nuts and chocolate chips. Place in freezer until frozen and ready to serve.

I made it and it came out nice. I varied it slightly and added another layer of cookies between the 2 layers of Ice cream.

all the icing recipes i have require the use of icing sugar or powdered sugar.
i found this on a recipe site... you could try it...

Substitutions: 1 cup sugar + 1 tbsp cornstarch = 1 cup powdered sugar

how about you melted chocolate for your cake? you could melt both white and dark chocolate and swirl them on top of the cake?
something like this--

We do have powdered sugar:) -this is the not crystal sugar. I can change the the icing sugar with powdered sugar:? Is the same.

How you melted the choco:? It looks good too:)
 
yes you can use powdered sugar. its practically the same.

i melted the dark chocolate and white chocolate in the microwave separate. then i put on the dark chocolate and then put lines of white chocolate and swirled it
 
Thank you:) i think i will begin with the choco layer - it looks cool
If its not too big trouble could you give me the recipe of the above cake:? :-[

1 tablespoon vanilla essence
1/2 cup milk
(optional: 1/4 cup orange juice)
2 cups plain flour
1/2 cup chocolate powder
2 teaspoons baking powder

Add this mixture to the butter mixture.
Beat until mixed.
Add the flour, baking powder and chocolate powder gradually and beat until all is mixed in.
Pour into greased pan and bake for about 30-40 mins.
 
Inside has no cream at all or it has the melted choco mixture:? What i will put in the top.
 
its just a plain chocolate cake. after it was baked, i put icing all over. then i put the melted chocolate over the icing in the middle of the cake. you can only put chocolate though if you want to.
 
Thank you for the recipe. Now i got it and i will be creative:)
