TOPOVSKE KUGLE S PIRATSKOG BRODA

Na ovim bi ti kuglama pozavidio i sam Modrobradi

Potrebno ti je:

200 g keksa petit buerre
70 g maslaca (sobne temperature)
200 g mliječne ili čokolade za kuhanje
0,5 dl slatkog vrhnja
šalica čokolade u prahu

Postupak:

Kekse stavi u vrećicu, dobro zatvori pa preko njih prelazi valjkom za tijesto dok se ne usitne. Usitnjene kekse stavi u veću posudu.

Čokoladu natrgaj na što manje komade.

U vatrostalnu staklenu posudu stavi čokoladu, maslac i vrhnje, pa sve zagrij u mikrovalnoj pećnici 1-2 minute. Promiješaj. PAZI – moglo bi biti vruće!Ako se čokolada nije otopila, stavi u mikrovalnu na još 1 minutu.

Promiješaj, pa pažljivo, da se ne opečeš (mudro je koristiti maminu kuhinjsku rukavicu ili pak zamoliti mamu za pomoć), prelij po keksima. Promiješaj žlicom, pa pričekaj minutu-dvije da se smjesa prohladi.

Sad rukama oblikuj kugle. (Ako ti je smjesa prerijetka, dodaj još keksa). Ostavi kuglice da se osuše pola sata, a zatim ih uvaljaj u čokoladu u prahu.

Ove će topovske kugle svakog neprijatelja natjerati na predaju.

CANNONBALLS FROM A PIRATE SHIP

To make these cannonballs, which would make any pirate jealous, you need:

200 g butter cookies or graham crackers

70 g softened butter

200 g milk, semi-sweet or bitter-sweet chocolate

½ dl heavy whipping cream

1 cup chocolate/cocoa powder

Method:

Place cookies in a ziploc bag, close well and roll a rolling pin over until evenly crumbled. Transfer the finely crumbled crackers in a large bowl.

Break chocolate into small pieces.

In a baking dish, put chocolate, butter and cream and heat in a microwave for 1-2 minutes. Stir. CAREFUL – it might be hot!

If the chocolate has not melted, heat in for another 1 minute in the microwave.

Stir and, carefully, to avoid getting burned (it is wise to use mom’s oven mitt or ask an adult for help), pour the mixture over the cookies. Mix with a spoon and let cool for a minute or two. Form balls with your hands. (It the mixture is too thin, add more crumbled cookies). Let dry for ½ hour, then roll in chocolate/cocoa powder.

These cannonballs are sure to win over any enemy.
