The Trio Combi

The raspberry delight was a great hit and I decided to take the suggestion from my sis-in-law and use a biscuit base instead of a sponge cake base. But there was no sight of any digestive biscuits in my store anywhere except for those coated with milk and dark chocolate which feels kinda of wrong... I had to use my oreo biscuits which I think would make a gorgeous trio color combi with the mousse. 


This time, I made raspberry and blackberry mousses coupled with yoghurt mousse. The base was the same a cheesecake base, battered biscuit crumbs cramped together with melted butter. This is how it looks:





One important tip on the gelatin, do not use more than recommended or the mousse might coagulate too fast and the texture may taste weird. It would present a gel like feel instead of the smooth and creamy texture.

Crinkies in The Chocolat

It taste like a brownie that is wrapped by a coat of crunchy icing. Chocolate crinkles are well known for its outer crunchy layer and its moist brownie-like core. With the pure white icing as the crunchy layer, sweetness is guaranteed. Well, at first I stated out with cute little ones but they were a little tad too dry, so I decided to increase the size of the little drops, indeed, the second batch was more moist and I got greedy, made really huge ones with lotsa of icing and the icing did not managed to melt completely to form the crunchy layer but it is still edible. Moral of the story: Greediness will never be rewarded! =)

Used the crunchy cookies as a topping for my specially made vanilla ice-cream, I just had a huge cup of those goodies... Now, I am craving for more... =p
