Milk with chocolate ice cubes!!!










Photo and recipe from The Dough via Homeschool Adventures on Pinterest

Chocolate ice
  • 200ml milk
  • 50 ml of water
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon instant coffee (optional)
  • 70g dark chocolate (66%)

Milk with Vanilla
  • 600ml milk
  • 60g sugar
  • 1 vanilla pod

For chocolate ice (12 to 14)



Finely chop chocolate and place in a heatproof bowl. Pour milk and water in a saucepan, add sugar, cocoa and coffee and mix thoroughly to avoid lumps. Bring to a boil over medium heat then remove from heat. Pour over chocolate, melt 5 minutes then mix gently with a wooden spoon to get a cream smooth and creamy. Cool and pour into an ice cube tray and freeze. For milk with vanilla Pour milk into a large saucepan, add sugar and stir to dissolve. Slit the vanilla pod in the center, scrape the seeds and put them in the pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat then remove from fire. Cool, then refrigerate several hours or preferably overnight. To serve, place ice cubes in glasses of chocolate (depending on size of glasses 3-4 ice cubes) and pour over the cold milk with vanilla. You can enhance the drink by serving with whipped cream and chocolate or cigarettes into gourmet dessert by mixing the milk with the vanilla ice cream for a creamy milkshake: the Mister Choc Summer , irresistible nugget of chocolate Simple and effective!

Tempt my Tummy Tuesday!! (on thursday!!)

Linking to Tempt my Tummy Tuesdays hosted by Blessed with Grace.


I have decided to share a recipe that I have had for a while...Super Snickers Brownies!!!



8 tbsp butter, melted
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 tbsp water
1/2 tsp vanilla essence
1 pinch salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup cocoa
3/4 cup all purpose flour
8 fun size snickers, chilled

1) Preheat oven to 350F. Grease 9" x 13" pan with butter.

2) Beat butter and sugar together in a large bowl until blended.

3) Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and then stir in 2 tbsp of water and the vanilla.

4) Sprinkle salt and baking powder over the mix, beat in. Do the same with the cocoa. Stir in flour until blended.

5) Put the snickers in a blender and pulse on low speed until all bars have reduced to a coarse crumble. Fold the bars into the batter.

6) Scrape batter into pan. Bake 30 mins until set but still kind of squishy, and top slightly cracked. Cool completely, then cut into squares.

I found this recipe at Cooking with Good Morning America.
