- THE ROYAL WEDDING CAKE!
Yes, I was a bit wrapped up in the majesty of the Royal Wedding. It was beautiful. I woke at 6 to catch a glimpse of the action and Kate looked just gorgeous. Anyway, I tried my best to re-create the royal biscuit wedding cake that William personally requested (from me, of course lol). I brought it to work for a little fun today. It is DELISH! How did you celebrate the Royal Wedding?!
UPDATED: What a goofball I am! One of my favorite bloggers, Caitlin (and of course I trust her with all things British ’cause of her Husb hehe) reminded me to post the recipe! So, I used the following recipe from DailyCandy. (Link to recipe HERE)
Prince William’s Chocolate Crunch Cake
Serves eight
Ingredients
For the cake
1 box graham crackers
¼ c. raisins
¼ c. nuts, chopped
5 oz. dark chocolate
5 oz. milk chocolate
1 stick butter, room temp.
1 14-oz. can condensed milk
For the topping
5 oz. dark chocolate
1 tsp. milk
1. In a large metal bowl, crumble graham crackers into bite-size pieces. Add raisins and nuts.
2. In a saucepan, melt chocolates, butter, and milk. Stir frequently so chocolate doesn’t burn.
3. Add melted mixture to crackers and stir until dispersed.
4. Line an 11-by-7-inch pan with waxed paper. Pour mixture into pan; spread evenly. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
5. For the topping, combine ingredients in a saucepan; stir until melted.
6. Remove cake from fridge and cover with topping. Cut into squares and serve.
The only modifications I made was doubling the recipe for double deliciousness and I did not use wax paper, I instead sprayed the pan with PAM spray and it was just fine! OK, now go to it! Enjoy!
Good luck tomorrow. We should have great weather 🙂
