It came as a beautiful surprise to me when the lovely Dhanya from Skinnychefdecuisine asked me to do a gust post for her! It is my first and to begin with, I never even knew what exactly a guest post was! But I was privileged to take up this opportunity. She originally hails from Kerala and I am an avid lover of her blog and her pics are so amazing that it makes me drool every time I see them. I can never take such awesome pictures like her or even be versatile like her recipes. I’ve known her space from the starting of my blog and she had given so much support for my lil’ blog baby to flourish. Thanks Dhanya, and You are an absolute sweetheart.
However, the actual challenge was when she asked me to try my hand on some dessert. Though I’m huge dessert lover, I am very bad at cooking one. I browsed and tried my level best, but all in vain- until I came up with this really sweet and simple recipe. It left my heart wanting for more and I was so glad that I came up with this one. Happy that she loved it just like me. You can read my post here, on her space.
Ingredients:
1. Nutella – 4 tbsp
2. Butter – 1 tsp
3. Chocolate chip cookies – 8, crushed
4. Cornflakes – 2 handfuls, crushed
5. Cocoa powder – for rolling the truffles
Method:
• Melt butter and nutella together for about 2 mins – either in a microwave or by the double boiling method.
• Next, mix in the crushed chocolate chip cookies & cornflakes.
• Bring to room temperature and make small sized balls out of the mixture.
• Roll each ball in cocoa powder till evenly coated.
• Refrigerate for about 30-40 mins before serving
Note – It tastes like Ferrero Rocher – the cocoa powder gives a bitter taste outside which enhances the taste. You can also use hot chocolate powder instead of coco powder for a sweet taste.
