Marie Biscuit Chocolate Floaters

The total time to make this immensely easy and delicious dessert was less than the time spent coming up with a suitable name for it. And I'm still not sure if I've done justice to it. Why don't you guys come up with a name for this? Basically, its Marie biscuit sandwiched with chocolate sauce... floating on more chocolate sauce!

Mango Ice Cream

There are so many different ways of making ice cream. With eggs, without eggs, with cream or with milk and so on. In my experience, the few ice creams I've made (without the ice cream maker) crystallized sooner or later. This time though, I was determined to find a solution to those irritating ice crystals. And I may have found it! :-D I do wish I had tried the Chocolate Ice Cream though. I'm not a big fan of fruity ice creams. However, that couldn't stop me from devouring a cup or two. ;-)

Butterscotch Pudding

To show you how obsessed I was with writing recipes, here's a glimpse of what I usually did in the pretense of studying ... I managed to clear all exams so I don't think Ma should have a problem seeing this! :-D

I didn't want my blog to go into a funk just because some exams were in the way. But I had to prioritize and so, cooking + blogging took a backseat. Out of an adversity, Cooking With Kin was born! :-) I have another blogger here with us today to share her recipe as a part of my CWK Series.

Rose-milk Ice Cream

Yummy Tummy... that's what she calls her blog. Aarthi is one of the few immensely successful food bloggers who has the patience and dedication to blogging like no one! In just a year, she has posted 500+ recipes with step-by-step photographs! I'm thrilled to have her as my Cooking With Kin Guest today. :-) I actually felt really guilty troubling her with my request when I knew she was busy with her Wedding preparations. On the other hand, I really really wanted her to do one for me! :) So I listened to what Bible says, "Ask, and Ye Shall Receive"... :-D I shot her an email & (whooopiieee) she agreed! And now, over to the bride-to-be. :)

Kid's Delight Roundup Part 1

Hello folks!

I'm doing the Roundup in 3 parts because we've got more than 150 recipes linked to the Something Sweet event. And I wanted to do a detailed post on these delicious treats. Thanks to Srivalli, who let me host this event. I didn't realize we would get so many entries coz I didn't even spread the word much. But we did. :-) So thank you all!
Also, I will be posting the roundup at least a week apart coz it takes time to accrue all the pictures and link them. So, please have patience! :-D I have taken care to include all the eligible entries in my Roundup. Just in case I've left out any, please shoot me a comment. I shall verify the same. But do check your post before notifying me; coz its more likely that you haven't followed the event rules & hence, left behind.
So get ready for the 1st part of Kid's Delight..

Rava Kesari | Suji ka Halwa | (Semolina Fudge)

Just thinking about this sweet makes me drool. One of the reasons why I love Indian Cuisine is this Kesari. :-) Especially the ones that are loaded with Ghee/Clarified Butter. They taste the best. Of course, that means you have to restrict yourself to miniscule amounts; but so what?! Its better to eat sinful delights in moderate quantities than eat boring salads in large quantities! ;-)

Kesari is a sweet made out of Indian Semolina flour. Its highly popular and you'll find the sweet served in many festivals and functions. Traditionally, we use Saffron threads to bring out a lovely orange color and a divine smell in the sweet. But since saffron is ridiculously expensive, a lot of people prefer using Orange food coloring instead.

Spiced-up Carrot Sago Pudding | Cooking With Kin #1#

As you all know, I announced the first food series on Edible Entertainment a few days back. I initially wanted to call it People's Choice Cooking. [I plan to cook with many people after exams! ;)] But I'm glad I settled for CWK - Cooking With Kin. I consider all us bloggers (and anybody interested in cooking) to be one big foodie-family! :-) Together, we're gonna give birth to many exciting recipes! (That was lame! Sorry! :P)

So, my first guest is this amazing Food Blogger, who has been a source of inspiration for all us amateur bloggers! :-) One can spend hours just ogling at her food photographs. I still wouldn't forget "improve the font or nobody's gonna read it!" email she sent me. :-) It was the first constructive advice anybody had ever given me and boy! did I cash in on that! :-D She is one multifaceted lady; what with her job, the kids, the blog AND the herculean task of hosting so many events! She is the founder of the very popular Blog Hop Wednesdays & Let's Cook Series.  - Yes folks, its Radhika, from Tickling Palates!!! *Drumrolls* 

I'm really honored to feature her recipe here today. Over to you, Radhi :-)
