so today i just stayed at home, had a rest - was so tired cause i went out too much lol.
(recap from thursday to sunday: formal, afters, 'sleep'over at stephs, signout day, din dins, watched wicked, shopping, richard ssn's wedding, bumming around with hemi, dinner comprising of whole rack of ribs, church, dinner)
i also fufilled my promise to my brother that i would bake him choc chip cookies, and so i did,
and they are bloody delish. like pretty much everything
which got me thinking.
why don't i make homemade tim tams?
*gasp*
yeah, it blew my mind too.
so my mission for these long ass aweomse holidays is to try and recreate tim tams at home. not just any tim tams, but tim tams that taste better. more chocolatey. more creamy. more awesome.
searched the web, and there is no recipe i can follow, so im going to just do it :D
but then you ask, why not something else? why tim tams?
well i thought about doing flavoured marshmellows, but i dont wanna get into that sticky gelatin mess
or cupcakes, cause whilst they look cute they are usually dry and have a shitload of wayy too sweet icing, which i just gross. proper cakes own cupcakes.
or the very chic macrons, cause my oven is very unreliable. damn you electric oven with no fan :(
and i cook a lot of savoury foods, but not that many sweets.
so tim tams. mwahahahaha.
currently plan is, find recipe for sturdy choc biscuit, cut and sandwich with either ganache+whipped cream mixture or the more stable chocolate meringue buttercream, freeze em, and coat in chocolate.
maybe experiment with crazy fillings, maybe tim tam with icecream in the middle. or dulce de leche
but of course im going to do it with good chocolate, preferably dark.
but i dunno.
imagine a tim tam slam with a homemade one. shit yeahhhhh.
friends should expect many many chocolate biscuits coming your way.
cause i cant really take much sweet stuff. so prob gunna be lots of dark chocolate.
thats what friends are for right? :D
