 This is a classic milk gelatin dessert, which literally translates to "white food". Blancmange: 3 heaping tbsp gelatin 3-4 tbsp water 2 tbsp (20g) corn starch 2 1/3 cups (600mL) milk 2 lemon peels, cut in large pieces 3/4 cup (150g) sugar Oil a gelatin mold or small bowls and set aside.  Mix the gelatine with the water and set aside at least 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.  Mix cornstarch and 3-4 tbsp of cold milk and pour into a saucepan.  Add the remaining milk, lemon peel and sugar and bring to a boil.  Lower heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes. Stir gelatin into the warm milk mixture to dissolve. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes. Fish out lemon peel and discard, you can pour the mixture through a strainer if you are worried about lemon seeds or other debris.  Pour the mixture into prepared gelatine mold and put in fridge to set overnight.  Turn onto a plate. If the blancmange won't come out of the form, tease the edges with a rubber spatula o...

 I love cinnamon. So these cookies were a no-brainer. Cinnamon Swirl Cookies: 1 cup (250g) butter 1 cup (200g) sugar 2 eggs 3 cup (375g) flour 1 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp salt 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar 2 tbsp cinnamon pinch of salt 1/4 cup (60g) melted butter Cream butter and sugar together.  Beat in eggs. Add flour, baking powder and salt.  In a separate bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, pinch of salt and melted butter.  If 2 tbsp of cinnamon is too strong for your taste, you can reduce the amount according to taste. Fold the cinnamon mixture gently into the cookie dough. Don't fold too much or it won't have the swirl in it.  Roll a tablespoon between your hands to make balls and place on lined baking sheet.  Bake at 350°F or 180°C for 8-10 minutes.  These beautiful cookies are soft and full of cinnamon flavor. I can highly recommend. Watch me make these delicious cookies on my YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/vVNPySgM3us Schaut zu wie ich d...

 Let's first address the elephant in the room: "But Mars bars don't exist!" Well, my American friend, in the United States, these bars were renamed Milky Way. Mars bars do still exist, as you can see in the video, in Europe and other areas of the world. Mars Cereal Bars: 1/2 cup (125g) butter 4 + 1 Mars bars (Milky Way bars in the US) 3 cups (90g) Rice Krispie (or plain Cornflakes) cereal 1 cup (160g) milk chocolate chips or chopped milk chocolate In a bowl, melt butter and 4 Mars bars together in the microwave or over a double boiler.  Pour over cereal in a large mixing bowl. Toss to combine.  Press into greased casserole dish.  Melt milk chocolate and spread over the cereal.  Cut slices of the last Mars bar and place on top of the chocolate.  Allow the chocolate to set up completely. Cut into small squares.  These are great. They have a lovely crunch from the cereal and are full of chocolate. Watch us make this delicious recipe on our YouTube channel...
