BACON AND VEGETABLE 2 MINUTE NOODLE CUPS

BACON AND VEGETABLE 2 MINUTE NOODLE CUPS



When you have kids in the house there is always a few packets of 2 minute noodles in the pantry on stand-by. Throw in some ham and some hidden grated vegetables and you have a great snack that kids (and adults!) love. Great for parties and lunchboxes.

GLUTEN FREE:
Use gluten free 2 minute noodles and Gluten free chicken stock ( Vegeta, Massell)

INGREDIENTS
2 x 85 grams packets chicken two-minute noodles
2 teaspoons chicken stock powder
3 cups grated vegetables (zucchini, mushroom, corn, spring onion, capsicum and carrot)
2 eggs lightly beaten
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
½ cup light sour cream/mayonnaise
½ cup chopped ham or bacon
1 cup light tasty cheese

METHOD
Preheat oven to 180 ˚C /160˚C fan-forced. Lightly spray a tray of 12 hole muffin pan with olive oil. Cook noodles as directed on packet discarding the chicken sachet. Drain and rinse under cold water. Place in a bowl. Add the chicken stock powder, Dijon mustard, grated vegetables, egg, light sour cream and bacon. Mix to combine. Spoon equal portions in muffin pans and top with cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until set.
HANDY HINTS
Works well with cooked rice, vermicelli or any other small cooked pasta shapes. You can also make it in the Texas muffin tins. Try adding soy sauce/oyster sauce for extra flavour.

Creme De Menthe Brownies

makes one 9 x 13 pan

1/2 cup butter, at room temperature

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 1/4 cups all purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons cocoa powder (I used Hershey’s Special Dark)

2/3 cups chocolate chips (optional)

mint layer

2 cups powdered sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup creme de menthe

chocolate fudge layer

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Butter and flour a 9 x 13 inch cake pan.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream butter and sugar until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, then add vanilla. With the mixer on medium speed add in flour, cocoa and salt, mixing until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

Spread batter in the pan. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out almost clean. Let cool completely before adding mint layer. When cool, beat butter and powdered sugar together in the bowl of an electric mixer, making sure to scrape down the sides until combined. Add in creme de menthe and mix until smooth and mixture completely comes together. Spread on brownie layer, then refrigerate until set, about 1-2 hours.

Melt chocolate and butter together (either in a double boiler or in the microwave – I do it in 30 second increments, stirring until smooth), then pour over top of mint layer. Refrigerate until set, another 1-2 hours. These are great right out of the fridge, but I especially love them once they have sat at room temperature and are super fudgey.

Note: these can be made in an 8×8 pan for thicker brownies, but they are super sweet. I love rich desserts and was happy with the 9 x 13 pan.

Homemade Snickers Bars

Makes one 9×13 pan

Bottom chocolate layer

1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips

1/4 cup peanut butter

Thoroughly grease you baking pan. Melt ingredients together in a saucepan or microwave, then pour into the baking dish and spread until even. Let cool and harden completely.

Nougat layer

1/4 cup unsalted butter

1 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup evaporated milk

1 1/2 cups marshmallow fluff

1/4 cup peanut butter

1 1/2 cup salted peanuts chopped, roughly chopped

1 tsp vanilla extract

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add in sugar and milk, stirring until dissolved and bring to a boil. Let cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add in fluff, peanut butter and vanilla, stirring until smooth. Turn off heat and fold in peanuts, then pour over bottom chocolate layer. Let cool completely.

Caramel layer

1 14-ounce bag of caramels

1/4 cup whipping cream

Combine ingredients in a saucepan over low heat. Let melt, stirring occasionally, until smooth – this took about 10 minutes for me. Pour over nougat layer and let cool completely.

Top chocolate layer

1 1/4 cups milk chocolate chips

1/4 cup peanut butter

Melt ingredients together in a saucepan or microwave, then pour over caramel and spread until even. Let cool and harden completely.

Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving, then cut as desired. These can stay at room temperature, but they do get gooey. I like them refrigerated best!

Note: for best results, buy one of the half-sheet aluminium cake pans at the grocery store. That way, you can pop the entire square out and cut from there!

Divide rested dough into 12 equal pieces.

FRENCH SILK BROWNIE PIE

 

 

 

FRENCH SILK BROWNIE PIE

 

 

INGREDIENTS

 

• 1 batch of your favourite brownie mix

• 6 tablespoons butter, softened

• ½ cup sugar

• 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled

• ½ cup eggs (for me that was about 1½ eggs)

• whipped cream

• chocolate shavings

 

 

INSTRUCTIONS

 

1. Prepare the brownie batter. Pour the batter into tart pans, making just a thin layer (about 1 inch) of batter. Bake for about 10-15 minutes, depending on how gooey you want the crust. When completely cool, if they puffed up a little bit you can press them down with your hands to make more room for the filling.

2. Cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the melted and cooled chocolate. The mixture will look kind of grainy – that’s ok.

3. With your mixer on low, incorporate the eggs. As soon as they’re just incorporated, start gradually turning your mixer to a faster setting, scraping the sides as you go. Beating it faster will fluff the whole thing up and it will become a wonderful, fluffy chocolate mousse.

4. Pour the mousse over the brownies and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

Nutella Brownies

I am about to change your life. I am about to make you the happiest person on the planet. I am about to show you how to make brownies with only three ingredients. And I am going to exploit the inherent fantastical properties of Nutella in doing so.

See, Nutella already has fat, milk, and chocolate in it. Since those are the things you would normally be adding to traditional brownies separately, why not use a product that already has these things - and hazelnuts! See, you knew Nutella was amazing. But maybe you didn't realize its full potential. Until today - the day you met three-ingredient  Nutella brownies.

Go. Make these. Now.

Ingredients:

1 cup (280g) Nutella

2 eggs

10 tbsp (62g) flour

Directions:

Put it in a bowl. Mash it up. Pour into a pan or muffin tin. Top with hazelnuts if you're feeling extra fancy. Bake at 350F (180C) for around 30 minutes (less time for cupcake form, more time if the centres aren't baked through).

That's it. You're done. Eat them. Revel. Be amazed.

You're welcome.
