White Chocolate Lace Cups (found on web)

User Image

2 squares BAKER'S White Chocolate
2 tsp. grated orange peel
1/4 cup thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping
1/4 cup fresh raspberries

1. LINE each of two muffin cups from medium muffin tin with piece of foil; freeze 5 min.
2. MICROWAVE chocolate in small microwaveable bowl on MEDIUM 1-1/2 min.
3. Stir until chocolate is completely melted.
4. Drizzle with spoon onto bottoms and up sides of prepared cups.
5. Freeze an additional 5 min. or until chocolate is firm.
6. Carefully remove cups from pan; gently peel off and discard foil.
7. STIR orange peel into whipped topping; spoon evenly into chocolate cups.
8. Top evenly with raspberries.

(Tips:
1)I don't suggest buying Bakers White Chocolate just because it's really expensive you can buy the same thing from Hershey's? white chocolate chips.
2) as for fruit you can really be creative i've tried kiwi and strawberries cream
3) when you line the muffin cups with chocolate make sure it's really thick
4) I don't know about you but I found the white chocolate to be very VERY sweet with the cream so I suggest perhaps milk chocolate or semi sweet chocolate and by the way Bakers Semi Sweet Chocolate is like... dark chocolate no sugar at all *dies*
5) I don't exactly suggest whip cream that comes in tubs I suggest the ones that are from the bottle and you push on the nuzzle side way to squirt out, my personal favorite is the one from Dairy Land)

Sunshine Smoothie (cloudyhead)

ing:
~Strawberries
~Orange juice
~Bannna (about a half unless your making a huge serving)
~Vanilla soft serve (ice cream will work fine but i would advise putting milk or half and half in as well so its not thick)
~Slush from the slushie machiene (yeah alot is not readily avable to you, cold water and blened ice cubes work fine)

Since all of you dont readily have avable a sonic blender and cups ill give you a hime version.
The sonic sunrise is normally 16 ounces unless you order a large wich is served in a medium sized cup because we are not trying to kill you.

~Ok so in a blender id say mabye about 5 oz throw some cold water and ice cubes in there and blend until you have something that resembles slush.

~Now pour 2 or so oz of oj in there (you would be in the 7 or so oz line on your blender)

~A good handfull of strawberries and if you dont have strawberry syrup or purred (pure- ray-ed i think thats how you spell it) strawberries i would sugest just throwing a dash of sugar or splenda in there

~Half a bannna

now your about what 9 0z?

~Fill it up to 12 - 13 with milk and then add a nice lump of vanilla ice cream in there and blend it all togher.

thats basically how we do it at sonic except we have premade slush and strawberry syrup crap.
oh and we put it directly in the cup blend with a stick blender (you jsut put the cup under, hold it tight and blend. then top and serve in our litte attracive foam cups. <3 )

the diffrent catogories and then abc order would do well, you could also delete inital post and when reposing in the order but the name of who submited it. i wouldnt mind you deleteing my post (or even my self deleting it) because it has been added to the recipe book so to speak.

and oh crap i messed up, that recipe is called the sunshine smoothie. the sonic sunrise is something else ( a cherry limade with oj)

Well... I've been trying to come up with something that would be very lolita-ish, but my mind is coming up blank ^^; Something that I think is great for every sweet tooth around though...

Berry coulis

First off, a coulis is a sauce made from some sort of fruit (usually anyways). It's always sweet and is typically used in plate decorations or as a topping/sauce with deserts (I love making desserts, and am the unofficial pastry chef at my work ^^)

ingredients:
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup water
4 cups chopped berries (or whole if they're small like raspberries or blueberries)

tools:
sauce pan
robo-coupe (or blender, whichever works really)

Method:
put your water and sugar in the sauce pan. Heat, stirring occasionally until all sugar is dissolved (just below boiling, but if it boils, that's fine too) Add your berries. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Let simmer for about 10 minutes or so. Turn off heat and let cool to room temperature (not really nessasary, but very helpful as it can be hard to work with if it's boiling hot) Pour liquid and berries into robo-coup. Puree until smooth (if it's cooked enough, it'll be real quick). The pureed liquid should coat the back of a spoon when you dip it in. Now just put it in a bottle and let cool ^^ As it cools, it'll get thicker. It's great on ice cream or chocolate cake ^^

Oh, if you want the mixture thicker, or if it's not as thick as you wanted, you can bring it back to a boil and add some cornstarch mixed in a little water (let it boil for a couple minutes each time you add the cornstarch). I don't really suggest it though, since the cornstarch kinda dilutes the berry taste and if you add too much it gets kinda jelly like. Although if that's what you want, it's not too bad. If it were me, I'd just cook off more berries ^^

So then.... If we only eat sweet and pretty looking foods, will be become sweeter and prettier?

Posted: Sun May 07, 2006 2:57 pm

I've spoken to Nefarious Vile and she didn't have a problem with it. I think it wouldn't really fit in anywhere else here. Beauty isn't just literally makeup and skin care, it's about weight and such things. I know a Lolita recipie book wouldn't be neccaceraly good for you, but it's still a part of beauty culture, i guess ^^

Several recipes I found, I don't wanna list any of my own recipes, because I eventually want to produce a small cookbook with them in it. X3
I WILL post a recipe I have for gingerbread cookies (as soon as I find what my mom did w/ my recipe book). :3 As well as some info on cookie cutters. Then I'll post some recipes for making onigiri, how to make those lil' squid sausages, and how to make those Japanese cold omelettes (also when I found out what happened to those recipes D: we're redoing my room right now to look Victorian, adding our antique Victorian furniture and such). :3
I'm also trying to find a recipe for how to make Tea Eggs, I found something on Wikipedia listing a vague recipe, and I'm trying to figure out how to make them, if they taste good, I'll ist the recipe I used, if not...well... D:

Gretel's Tea Biscuits

These bickies (I think you call them cookies in the US) are interesting and different. The lavender flavour is subtle and unusual and they're lovely with tea or coffee. (It's best to use English Lavender for baking....but French is OK) ~Gretel

Lavender Bickies

150 grams butter (2/3 cup)
115 grams (1/2 cup) raw sugar
1 egg beaten
1 Tbsp. dried lavender flowers
170 (1 1/2 cup) grams Self-raising flour
water

Cream butter and sugar, then stir in egg. Mix in lavender flowers and flour. Add a dash of water to make a smooth consistency. Preheat oven to 180*C (375*F). Grease 2 baking trays and drop teaspoon size dobs of the mixture onto them. Top with a sprinkle of the raw sugar. Bake 15 -20 minutes till golden. Makes about 25. (Editor's note-if you can't find raw sugar, try brown sugar).
