St Patrick's Day and a little taste of Irish Coconut Ice....

 Ok - I am fooling with ya all a little....

this is an ordinary coconut ice,

sweet...

delicious...

uncooked...

 and simple to make.

The Irish bit is just the fact it has green colouring added 

to a layer instead of the standard pink!

This delish Coconut Ice is courtesy of BBC Good Food.
It is very easy to make so pop over to get the recipe:

Nothing more perfect 
than a sweet treat to share on 
St Patrick's Day!

A Beautiful St Patrick's Day Proverb....

Choc-caramel Easter Slice

I found this Easter slice recipe on The Bite,
http://www.bite.co.nz/recipe/7137/ChocCaramel-Easter-Slice/

And it promised to be the biggest sweet overload in history with an almond chocolatey cake base,
gooey caramel filling and chocolate covered malt balls on top of that!

But here's the surprise....

it was sweet... but nicely so...

Not at all over the top as one might have expected,

and sooooo delicious!

The caramel was a little gooey,

  but adding longer cooking time will firm it up without a problem. 
Printable recipe is over at the Bite - http://www.bite.co.nz/recipe/7137/ChocCaramel-Easter-Slice/

For your Easter dessert display, 

add candles...

 And serve the Choc-caramel Easter Slices on brown paper, 

on a worn wooden chopping board.

Feathers always add to the fun!
