Rice Bubble Bars

These were so easy to make. They are a yummier and cheaper version of LCM's.

• 125g butter
• 1x 250g packet marshmallows
• 4 cups of rice bubbles
• 1 tsp vanilla essence
• Melted white chocolate or rainbow choc chips to decorate.

The cheap brands work really well in this recipe!

1. Line a slice tray with baking paper
2. Melt marshmallows with the butter in a saucepan until creamy
3. Put rice bubbles in a mixing bowl
4. Add vanilla to marshmallow mixture and quickly mix into the rice bubbles
5. Pour into slice tray and press firmly. (Spray the back of a spoon with oil to help press it down, its very sticky!!)
6. Pour on rainbow choc chips
7. Refrigerate until set
8. Slice into bars

If you are drizzling with melted chocolate, do this after it has set.

Happy eating!! xxxxx

Brownies With Marshmallow Topping

This brownie tasted amazing! The outside was chewy from the marshmallow and inside was gooey and warm, when it cooled down, the gooey middle bit set like a creamy centre inside a chewy brownie case..... Delightful!



• 250g butter
• 125g chocolate
• 2 cups caster sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup plain flour
• 1/4 cup cocoa
• 50g mini marshmallows
• 1/2 cup choc chips (I used chopped up chocolate.)

1. Preheat oven 180c
2. Lightly grease a 22cm square shallow cake dish
3. Melt butter and chocolate in saucepan over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon
4. Remove from heat, allow to cool for 2 minutes
5. Stir in sugar
6. Beat in eggs, one at a time
7. Stir in vanilla
8. Sift in flour and cocoa and blend well
9. Stir in choc chips and marshmallows
10. Bake for approx 45 mins.
11. Allow to cool completely in pan before cutting

The marshmallows will rise to the top giving a crunchy topping. Dark or milk chocolate can be used. Coconut or nuts can be added if desired.

Choc Mint Ice-Cream Cake

Ice-cream, chocolate cake and peppermint..... What could taste better?

• 2L mint choc chip ice-cream, softened (not melted.)
• 1 Chocolate mud cake (brought is fine)
• 1 tsp peppermint essence (I didn't use this and it was still amazing)
• Something to decorate the top with (i used chocolate chips and chopped peppermint crisp bar)

1. Soften your ice-cream out on the bench if you haven't already.
2. Remove and throw away icing from mud cake. Using a serrated knife, split cake in half horizontally. Place 1 cake round between 2 sheets of baking paper. Using a rolling pin, roll cake out to fit your round spring form pan. Repeat with remaining cake round.
3. Place 1 cake round into spring form pan. Drizzle with half the essence. Spread half the ice-cream over cake. Top with remaining cake round. Drizzle with remaining essence and spread remaining ice-cream over the top. Decorate top of cake if desired then cover the surface with plastic wrap, then with foil and freeze overnight.
4. Transfer to a plate, stand for 5 Min's to soften slightly. Serve.

If i can find these on Ebay i will buy them!

On the mornings that i have spaghetti on toast, this would be nice!

Andy bugs me to mow while he is away. I wont unless it is this mower. Nuff said.

Since i have to use the washing machine several times a week, it would be nice to use this one!

Same goes for the mop, my floor would be a whole lot cleaner if this is what i had to work with!

This is me on my honeymoon in Thailand.... Found the best shop ever!

WANT. I will trade the children.

If only i was blogging from this..... There would be a post everyday!

Jasmine might start toilet training if we had this... right?

I would seriously wear these. For those who know me will know I'm not joking!

I'm going to the Hello Kitty Maternity Hospital in Taiwan for my next baby!!!!!

I would probably want to steal all the blankets when i go home!

Why doesn't Andy wear these to bed? Stuff it - Ill just have this guy!

I would seriously die if i had these nails, why don't i live in Japan??? WWHHYYY!!!!

I'm wearing this grocery shopping - with the shoes.

Hands up who wants to make these for my birthday?

Last but not least

Marshmallow Hello Kitties!

2 Weeks Until Easter!

 

I am just so excited!

I am a HUGE chocolate fan so Easter is one of my favourite times of the year!

I have been so busy lately, April is my busiest month (besides December of course!) Lots of people have birthdays in April, its Easter and its also my 2 children's birthday's which always means a party of some sort!

This year, Andy will be away for Zep's birthday - but home for Jasmines... They are 10 days apart so smack bang in the middle of that is Easter Saturday and Andy will be home so i thought it would be PERFECT for a combined Easter Birthday Party! So exciting!

I have been busy planning and buying and organizing... I love birthday parties, probably because Ive never had one. I'm 27 this year!

We will be having an Easter egg hunt and a jumping castle this year, so excited about the castle... last time i had one i was heavily pregnant so i couldn't get in, now you probably wont get me off!

You know what else is awesome about Easter?

Chocolate coated marshmallow eggs......

I just saw one at the shop as i was buying bread and milk.... it took all of my strength not to eat it in the car on the way home! Its only 9:30am and its gone....

It tasted amazing too.... I recently brought myself a packet of pineapple lump chocolate coated marshmallow eggs for myself for Easter, but i saw dark chocolate mint ones today! I will have to buy them too. Oh yum, i cant wait!

I am home with Zeppelin today. Yesterday he woke up with a few spots and a couple of hives so i took him to the doctor and it turns out he has a mild case of chicken pox.... Lucky its mild (because he has been immunised) because I'm sick today too, have the worst cold and feel horrible. I can taste though, woo hoo!
So Zeppelin is contagious and off school till Monday, which means that i cant go to tafe, I'm sick anyway i guess. Jasmine is in daycare still so i will take this time to rest, she has been waking up well before 5am lately and i am just so run down. I thought 5:15am was damn early but id give anything for her to go back waking up then!! that would be a sleep in, haha.

Id better go get some homework done and try and have a sleep if i can. Good luck to me.
