Baileys Fudge Sauce, Ice Cream & Choc Leaves...

What's your favourite ice cream sauce topping?

Caramel - sweet or salted?

Berry?

Fruit?

White chocolate?

Mine is Bailey's Fudge Sauce!

More for the Adults.

If serving the chocolate sauce to children, simply leave out the Bailey's Irish Cream.

It's such an easy one to whip up:

Baileys Fudge Sauce:

In a pot over very low heat, stir until combined and creamy.

20 grams butter

190 grams of Dark Chocolate Melts

1/2 cup of fresh cream.

Just before serving.

Warm the sauce then add 1 tablespoon Baileys Liqueur.

How to Make Chocolate Leaves:

Wash and dry small camelia leaves.

These are a naturally waxy leaf so the chocolate does not stick to them.

Melt chocolate and spread with a knife onto the leaf.

Place onto wax paper and leave to set.

Once set, slowly and carefully peel off the leaf.

You will be left with the leaf shape and vein patterning.

In a parfait glass place two scoops of vanilla ice cream, 
top with Bailey's fudge sauce, and a chocolate leaf.

Then serve...
Molto delizioso!
(very delicious)

The New 'AQUA Clock...

You know what it's like when you get a new decor piece...

Things have a strange way of totally changing up.

When I replaced my failing 'worst time keeper ever' clock with a new one, that is what happened.

Because the clock was coloured black and white, the decor pieces on the top of the china cabinet directly below it were black and white!

And Grandma's old china cabinet held my collected china in yellow, white and green.

Then along came the new AQUA clock...

Nothing like a bit of colour to brighten things up!

So the pieces on the top and inside of the cabinet

 morphed into white and aqua...

The yellow, white and green china moved into the white French cabinet, and the aqua that was there moved into Grandma's china cabinet.

Aqua has to be one of my most favourite colours.

I have collected these pieces over many years...

And the watercolour painting of 'my eye', just adds a bit of fun to the display.
