Hey my fellow Steemians!
I was in a very nostalgic mood so decided to post a recipe of my fave childhood dessert.You may not be familiar with the chocolate concrete, but this is a very british dessert given in schools.Everyone I know have fond memories of this from my parents to my very own children.
There are very few ingredients required and it tastes amazing.These are all the ingredients you need.
Ingredients
170g Butter/Margerine
235g Plain Flour
185g Caster Sugar
30g Cocoa Powder
1 Egg
Method
Step 1 - Melt the Butter in a bowl
Step 2 - Add the Sugar and mix
Step 3 - Once mixed, add the flour
Step 4 - Now add the Cocoa Powder until it is of a thick consistency
Step 5 - Add the beaten egg to the mixture
Step 6 - Mix thoroughly
Step 7 - Pour the mixture in a grease proof tray (2 batches were made for my tin.Sprinkle water over the top.
Step 8 - Place in the top shelf of the oven for 45mins gas mark 3/170C .Once baked sprinkle with sugar.
Step 9 - As it is still pliable, cut the slices as soon as you take it out the oven.As it cools it will harden, so you will not be able to cut the slices without it breaking
There you have my comforting concrete crunch.At school we had the option for minted or strawberry custard.Yum Yum.Hope you all try my recipe.Please let me know your Food for Thoughts!!❤🍫❤🍫❤
