A thread for all to share their recipes stating whether (in your opinion) they are easy / difficult / quick etc etc. When posting make your first word STARTER / MAIN / or DESSERT, that way we can quickly refer to them if needed. I will begin with a dessert which we had today.
DESSERT - easy
1 orange - 4 tablespoons Cointreau (or Orange Sec) - 1/2 pint cream - 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon - 7 ozs. Chocolate Chip Cookies - 1 sachet Fixe Chantilly
1. Put grated rind and juice of the orange and cointreau into a bowl. (Retain a little bit of the rind for later).
2. Whip the cream with the fixe chantilly and cinnamon (it needs to be fairly thick, so it stands in peaks).
3. One by one dip the cookies into the orange mixture and sandwich them together with a little of the cream to form a "log roll".
4. Spoon any excess liquid over the cookie log roll.
5. Now cover the whole of the log roll with the remaining cream mixture to cover it completely.
6. Sprinkle with the orange rind (also nice with grated choc on top - if you should have any!).
Place in fridge for 2 - 3 hours (at least), I try to make mine the day before if we are having it for guests.
