Black Forest Double Chocolate Brownie Cake
2022-06-05 13:18
This recipe takes my Double chocolate raspberry brownie recipe up a level.
It consists of two raspberry brownie layers sandwiched around a dark cherry buttercream layer.
As with the original recipe, rather than white chocolate chunks you can also use a knife to turn a Milkybar bar into flakes.
Because the presentation is that of a cake, you don't necessarily need to use square tins for this, the only requirement is that both tins be the same size shape (if you've only got one tin, you can make one layer at a time, but it'll take longer).
Can be served on it's own, or with cream
Rhubarb and Apple Crumble

Nothing follows a good roast like a good crumble. Unlike my Sweet Rhubarb Crumble recipe, this crumble strikes a balance between apple and rhubarb
Best served with custard, but can also go with cream or ice-cream
JD and Coke Ice Lollies

Every one loves an ice-lolly (popsicle for the americans), and there's only one thing better on a hot day: a boozy ice-lolly
The basic principle is make a drink, sweeten and then freeze it.
The variations are never-ending: * Pimms and Lemonade * Gin and Tonic * Brandy and coke * Southern Comfort and Lemonade
You will find, though, that lollies made with a sweet mixer will tend to flake a bit more
Roast Lamb Cooking Times

Cooking time is calculated based on the weight of the lamb cut, as well as whether you want the meat to be medium or well done.
Plan to allow the joint to sit, covered, for 15-20 minutes before carving - it allows the juices to retreat back into the meat, giving a much moister cut
