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:

  1. Crush the buscuits in a grinder to powdered form and sieve it. 
  2. Make a medium hard dough by mixing drinking chocolate, biscuit powder, sugar (50gms only) and milk. Keep it aside.
  3. 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.
  4. Take a medium size thick plastic sheet. Put the chocolate dough on it. Cover the dough with the plastic.
  5. Make a single oval roti by pressing the dough using a Rolling Pin / Velan. Make sure it is even in thickness
  6. Put the coconut mixture on top of the chocolate layer evenly.
  7. Now with the help of the plastic sheet keep folding the chocolate so as to make a cylindrical roll out of it.
  8. Refrigerate it for an hour (not in deep freeze).
  9. Cut the roll in vertical dimensions. Your circular shape chocolate is ready!

I Salute The Mother In You

I have been traveling through BEST bus since a month now. Observing passengers especially ladies. I prefer the reserved seat for ladies. I usually get to sit immediately there.  A lady in burkha sat beside me with her 7months boy. I started. Me: "Does he have teeth yet?" She was very welcoming and showed me his tiny milky teeth. He was cute, enjoying that he was travelling. Me: "Is he your first child?" She said, “No its my third, I have other two girls. I just dropped them to school and am returning from there.” It is a personal opinion on how many kids a couple wants to have but what amazes me is how a mother takes care of as many kids she has with all the love and attention. Today while at the bus stop for boarding my ride i meet a lady. She lost her husband at much early age and had two kids to take care. she started her career at 30 and didn’t look back. Its cool how she manages her home and work together with kids. No personal life! I salute th...

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.  The boys were still sleeping and my eyes was wide awake wanting to soak in more of this beauty. After the sun rose and my son rose... We all did a group hug and headed to the play area.  H made few friends and we had poha, chai and bread muskah for breakfast. The Resort people were kind enough to serve warm milk for my son. Hello Sun H starting to interest in photography New friends H was keen in exploring the place more. He showed me some red chilly plants, a sugarcane grass and few grasshoppers over a Chikoo tree. We spotted a green cocoon, a praying mantis and a grasshopper. Chilly Chili Sugarcane Stages of Butterfly Now you see me A Praying Mantis Today was the day to leave. Its very tough for my son to accept end of any event, be it school or visit to his Nani'...

Lets go seed collecting

This is a post on how something that interested me so much got passed down to my son naturally. Nature always interested me although staying in Bangalore for a couple of years made it evoke.  I started noticing various fruit trees in my locality like coconut, papaya, jackfruit, pomegranate, fig and banana. It was surprising to me how food was grown in some households. The beauty of various seasons was much prominent in HSR Layout, making me exploring more about other trees and searching them on google. Few months ago I was much frustrated by my son's rag picking all day. He would stop at various intervals on our way to pick up things like tobacco wrappers or used plastic bottles from the roadside. While in the park he would keep searching for chips packets or used lollipop sticks. I was worried about his health and overall his habit. I would explain him with logic and multiple repetition, yet no gain. I myself was frustrated with so many NOs to him. I thought there need to ...
