Brown Bread Dessert
Yes!
This recipe really includes BROWN BREAD! You wouldn't know it unless
someone told you though, because the end result has no hint of bread
flavor in it! The taste was fantastic and sooo much like a moist and
delicious black forest! Only with a slightly healthier twist to it. Plus
it literally takes moments to prepare!
INGREDIENTS
1 loaf of a day-old brown bread (sliced)
¾ cup grinded sugar
½ cup assorted nuts (crushed)
1 ½ cups Cadbury's drinking chocolate powder
¼ cup cocoa powder
2 tsp. vanilla essence
1 ½ cups fresh cream mixed with half cup whole milk and 2 tbsp. icing sugar
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS
1 cup whipping cream plus 1 tbsp. icing sugar, whipped to soft peaks
sliced strawberries or strawberry sauce
Strawberry Sauce Recipe
INGREDIENTS
2 cups fresh or unsweetened frozen strawberries
1/3 cup sugar
1-2 tsp. cornstarch
1/3 cup water
Red food coloring (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
Wash and hull fresh strawberries. If
using frozen strawberries, thaw before using. Chop the strawberries into
small pieces. Reserve a third of the chopped strawberries.
Mix water and cornstarch until dissolved, pour into a pan and add the
strawberries and sugar. Simmer until the sauce thickens. Pour the sauce
into a blender and blend until smooth, then pour it back into the pan.
Add the reserved third of chopped strawberries and simmer for another
minute. Finally add the vanilla essence and some drops of red food
coloring if you like.
Refrigerate until chilled before serving over your dessert.
Now on to the making of this AMAZING dessert!!
Grind the bread slices and pour them into a bowl. Add the powdered
sugar, cocoa powder, drinking chocolate powder, nuts and 1 tsp. of the
vanilla essence. Stir these dry ingredients together well.
Take a dessert dish or individual bowls. Put half the bread mixture
into the dessert dish, drizzle half the fresh cream/milk over it and
then press it down into a layer using the back of a spoon. Add some
strawberry slices or sauce and half of the softly whipped cream. Repeat
with the remaining bread mixture, followed by the fresh cream/milk
mixture and the whipped cream. Top with some more strawberries/sauce and
some grated chocolate.
Chill for a few hours, tastes even better the following day.
Serve and enjoy!
