MY first official assignment as Aunt Elly, is to make cheesecakes for 40 people!
My nephew gets his name this weekend and I´m making the cakes!
My nephew is the silver lining, but the cheesecake is my dark cloud!
They don´t always work out...When my parents got married, I made one with a hint of gingerbread flavor and one with a hint of orange but they got a bit grainy (grynig)... But they did disappear....very quickly!
So I´m thinking:
Cheesecake with banana and chocolate truffle (a frozen kind).
You have mashed bananas into the batter and chopped chocolate ... and if that was not enough, you top the cake with chocolate truffle sauce (or is it called Ganache?)! We have a little guy that can´t have eggs coming so after looking around,I found this! But I'll make a big one, so more people can taste (if they want!)
A plain one with raspberries on it and maybe a chocolate bottom...I don´t know yet.
If I get hold of fresh raspberries or strawberries, I think I will decorate with those but I'll make a raspberry sauce with gelatine, so it stiffens on top of the cake.
I´m going to try to make chocolate decorations to put on the cakes ..... His name .. maybe!!
I will take some photos and put on here later...on either beautiful cheesecakes or a train crash! Who knows!
