Nachos

Today in class we made nachos. I think we may have toasted the chips for to little time. We made the sauce really well and it was the perfect texture. It was really good to have for lunch. It was really fun making the sauce in the saucepan, especially melting the cheese.

Chocolate Truffles

Today we made chocolate truffles. They were really good! We could have crumbed the biscuits a little bit more though. Other than that they were really successful.

Muffins from mars

Today it was my assessment and my muffins were the muffins from mars. My three ingredients were mini mars bars, cocoa powder and white chocolate buttons. I mixed the cocoa powder in with the mixture first, then when everything was nearly all mixed in I added my white choc chips. While my muffins were in the oven I was experimenting with how to melt the mars bars (actually a lot harder than I thought) eventually I found a great way and my melted mars bars had a beautiful smooth texture. I also melted the remainder of the white chocolate. The sauce was drizzled on to of e cooked muffins. It set and tasted really good!

White rabbit muffins

Today it was my partners assessment, and she made white rabbit muffins (raspberry and white chocolate). It was really hard, because I had never added fruit to muffins before, and I was a bit worried at first, as the mixture looked a bit strange. In the end though they tasted amazing! She did a really good job.

Choc chip muffins

Today as a practice for the assessment we made chocolate chip muffins. It really helped me to get used to the recipe we were using, And showed me how and when to add extra ingredients. In the end they were huge and tastes really good!

Tacos

Today we made Mexican beef tacos. It was my first time using the kitchen's frying pan, and it was really fun! The mince was amazing and even though it wasn't from the packet it was still amazing. We had to add some extra water to the mince though, as it was a bit dry at first.

Pizza!

Today we made pizza. On mine, one half was Hawaiian and the other was a mixture of feta, capsicum, and olives. My pizza was really good, and it taught me to always check the oven, in case the pizza burns!
