Easy to make Cocoa-Coconut Chocolate

Here is a recipe from my Aunt. I have tried it and just luv it so much! It has the similar taste of a Bounty Chocolate. It took me around 20mins to do this excluding the 1hr refrigerating part. Sieve all the powder ingredients before preparation.

Ingredients:
100gm Dry coconut powder
100gm ~ 4oz Britannia - Marigold biscuits
100gm Powdered Sugar
100gm Drinking Chocolate powder
1/2 cup Milk
1tbsp Butter

Steps:

Crush the buscuits in a grinder to powdered form and sieve it.
Make a medium hard dough by mixing drinking chocolate, biscuit powder, sugar (50gms only) and milk. Keep it aside.
Now mix the remaining sugar with the dry coconut powder. Add Butter to it so as to make a paste. Make sure the coconut doesn't fall apart.
Take a medium size thick plastic sheet. Put the chocolate dough on it. Cover the dough with the plastic.
Make a single oval roti by pressing the dough using a Rolling Pin / Velan. Make sure it is even in thickness
Put the coconut mixture on top of the chocolate layer evenly.
Now with the help of the plastic sheet keep folding the chocolate so as to make a cylindrical roll out of it.
Refrigerate it for an hour (not in deep freeze).
Cut the roll in vertical dimensions. Your circular shape chocolate is ready!

Paddy fields The place was mesmerizing with hills and paddy farms surrounding us. The early morning sun shone right in front of the verandah that our room was attached to. It was foggy every morning and clouds all day long so never did we feel the October heat. We hardly felt like staying in our luxurious rooms. I being a nature lover, enjoyed roaming around the fields, the flowering shrubs that beautified the paths and a machan to overlook till your eyesight would reach. Everyday view The sleeping beauty mountain The mountain, the river, the fields, the well, the hand pump, the insects, the flowers and the cattle were the topic of learning for my homeschooled kid. He had a friend to accompany him all day long. She was a year older than him, yet they both did compliment each other in many ways. W...

Visit to the Sagar Upwan

A Garden that was a dumping ground once is maintained more esthetically than any other! Not just because it lies hugging the seashore but also because its on the most elite part of the island city. A botanical garden so beautiful that it attracts most of the newbie photographers and it bets that any shot will earn you applause. Simply gaze by the path and be jolted by every other flora and fauna. Here are some pictures I took.

Pawna Lakeside Camping (Day 2)

Next morning I could wake before the birds chirped. It was gloomy and fog lay on the banks. I was trying to figure out east while reminding me where the sun set to the west.
