Anais' new Hudl stopped charging on Wednesday night. You may remember she had a replacement not long ago as the screen broke. Mark phoned them yesterday and a new one was delivered today 2.30pm. Thank You Tesco, Customer Service is brilliant.
I bought a flan case in the week so today we made a Giant Jaffa Cake! Looking online the recipe is based on a Gary Rhodes recipe though I didn't follow it exactly.
The original recipe is -
1 packet orange jelly cut into squares
375 ml/ 13 oz orange juice
275g/ 10 oz plain chocolate pieces
350ml/ 12 oz double cream
1 25cm/ 10 in sponge flan case
pouring cream to serve
raspberries or strawberries to garnish
mint leaves
We used -
1 packet of orange jelly
no orange juice as Roman not keen on too much orange so 285ml boiling water
200g chocolate - 100g milk chocolate and 100g dark chocolate as Anais not keen on too much dark chocolate
300ml double cream
flan case
Before school Anais made the orange jelly. She lined a pie/enamel dish with cling film and used an Asda sachet of orange jelly with 285ml boiling water. This was left to set all day while she was at school.
Last year we went to see it in Wolverhampton on a Sunday morning. This year it will be in Birmingham on Thursday 11th December which is not so convenient.
