Icy goodness
Inspired by Melissa of
tiny happy, I bought some ice-block moulds and am amusing myself coming up with flavours. I'm keen to try her
Piña Colada combo, next time the moulds are free!
Here are two mini 'recipes' of my own. I found they weren't overly sweet (which suits me), but you might want to add more sugar if you have a sweet tooth. Each recipe makes enough for 6 ice-blocks.
Apple Cinnamon
1 tin apple slices/chunks (unsweetened)
1/2 cup apple juice
1 Tbsp brown sugar (or more, to taste)
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Coconut Rough
1 cup milk
1/2 tin coconut cream
2 Tbsp drinking chocolate powder (or more, to taste)
Instructions: Whizz all ingredients in a blender, pour into ice-block moulds (leaving 1/2 inch at the top for expansion). Freeze for 4 hours.
Now if only I could figure out how to eat them without getting drips down my front... Obviously I have not yet outgrown the need for a bib. :p
