MEN IN CHOCOLATE ARE HERE…



Its Valentine’s day today and so desserts are being made in full swing at the last minute.I had been planning for this day for almost a week now but ended up doing nothing much :P
      




My faithful men in chocolate were my ultimate last savior.No..no they are not some guyz who are covered in chocolate{ahem..i would not mind though}  ;) but just a cute lil name I have given to my chocolate dipped strawberries.


INGREDIENTS:
150 grams dark chocolate
30 grams white chocolate
10-15 strawberries



METHOD:
Chop into small pieces both the chocolates.

On a double boiler,melt the dark chocolate and white chocolate separately.

Let both the melted chocolates cool down a bit.

Dip clean strawberries in the cooled melted dark chocolate and place on a parchment paper to set for 10 mins.

Meanwhile make a small piping bag out of parchment paper and fill it with melted white chocolate.

Pipe out small bows and buttons on the strawberries.

Let them set for 5 mins and your very own Men in chocolate are ready!!

FRENCH TOAST WITH CREAM CHEESE AND STRAWBERRY SAUCE

Whenever I have leftover bread in my kitchen I instantly know that I have to make French toast.I love eating French toast for breakfast,so this time I got a little innovative and instead of the plain one i served it with some cream cheese and strawberry sauce and it turned out absolutely delicious.

INGREDIENTS-
3 slices of stale French bread
2 eggs
½ cup milk
1 tsp sugar
A pinch of cinnamom
2 tsp vanilla essence
Butter for frying
100 grams Cream cheese
FOR THE SAUCE-
10 strawberries
1 tsp sugar or to taste

METHOD-
Whisk together the eggs,sugar,milk,1 tsp of vanilla essence and the cinnamom powder.

Transfer the egg mix to a shallow dish inorder to dip the bread slices.

Dip both sides of bread in the mix.

Meanwhile,in a pan over medium heat melt the butter.

Fry the bread slices until golden brown on one side and then turn and fry the other side.

Serve immediately with the strawberry sauce and cream cheese.

For the strawberry sauce-
Blend the strawberries and sugar together in a blender.

For the cream cheese-
Whip the cream cheese with 1 tsp of vanilla essence until smooth.
