Ham, pineapple & cheese pizza scrolls
Preparation Time 20 minutes
Cooking Time 30 minutes
Makes 12
Ingredients
300g (2 cups) self-raising flour
Pinch of salt
90g butter, cut into cubes
160ml (2/3 cup) milk
Plain flour, to dust
60g (1/4 cup) pizza sauce
80g (1 cup) coarsely grated cheddar
150g sliced leg ham, coarsely chopped
1 x 225g can pineapple pieces, drained on paper towel
Extra milk, to brush
Method
Preheat oven to 210°C. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the milk. Use a round-bladed knife in a cutting motion to mix until evenly incorporated and the mixture begins to hold together.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead until smooth. Use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll out the dough into a 30 x 40cm rectangle.
Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 2cm border around the edge. Sprinkle with the cheddar, ham and pineapple. Starting from a long side, roll up firmly to form a log. Brush the edge with a little extra milk and press down firmly to seal the log. Cut crossways into 12 equal portions, about 3cm thick. Place scrolls on the prepared tray. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
Notes & tips
These pizza scrolls will keep for up to 2 days. Store in an airtight container in the fridge and bring to room temperature before serving.
Pack a pizza scroll with chilled apple juice, a bag of mixed nuts and dried fruit.
free easy to find recipes which are good are crepes although high class they require you to mix some stuff pour it into a pan and cook it. you may burn a few but once you get the hang of it they are delicious. brownies are also good the recipes are on the back of the boxes so are cookies. Chocolate pound cake a little bit more of a challenge but it is terribly good find the recipe in a French cook book.
Easiest recipe in the world!!
You need a crockpot..If you don't have one...get one soon! I can't live without my crockpot.
1-2 lbs. boneless chicken breasts
1 bottle "bloody mary mix" (can find it at the liquer store)
a few hot peppers of your choice (cut into pieces)
put all ingredients in the pot, and cook on low ALL DAY...
6-8 hours...the longer, the better!
Serve over white rice, or alone with a side vege
YUMM
carame filled chocolate cookies
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
48 chocolate-covered caramel candies (I use Rollos)
Beat butter until creamy.
Gradually beat in white sugar and brown sugar.
Beat in eggs and vanilla.
Combine flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa.
Gradually add to butter mixture, beating well.
Cover and chill at least 2 hours.
Divide dough into 48 pieces.
Start by dividing dough into four equal pieces; then divide each piece into thirds; then each of those pieces in half to make 24; and each of those in half again to make 48 pieces.
Flatten each piece slightly and return to refrigerator.
Working with a few at a time, and leaving the remainder in the frige, press a piece of dough around a rollo, being careful to cover it completely.
(I find the rollos easier to handle when they're pre-chilled) Roll into a ball.
Place 2-inches apart on a greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 8 minutes in preheated 375°.
Let cool for 3-4 minutes before removing from baking sheet or caramel will run out the bottom of cookie.

Chocolate Cherry Trifle Recipe courtesy Nigella Lawson
Show: Nigella Feasts
Episode: Crowd Pleasers
2 (approximately 12 ounces each) chocolate pound cakes
1/2 cup black cherry jam
1/2 cup cherry brandy
2 cups drained bottled sour cherries (recommended: Morello)
Custard:
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, minimum 70 percent cocoa solids, chopped
1 1/3 cups plus 1 tablespoon milk
1 1/3 cups plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream
8 egg yolks
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 cup cocoa
Topping:
3 cups heavy cream
1-ounce bittersweet chocolate
Special Equipment: Large wide trifle bowl
Slice the chocolate pound cake and make jam sandwiches with the cherry jam, and layer the bottom of a large wide trifle bowl. Pour over the cherry brandy so that the cake soaks it up, and then top with the drained cherries. Cover with cling wrap and leave to macerate while you make the custard.
Melt the chocolate on low to medium heat in the microwave, checking after 2 minutes, though it will probably need 4 minutes. Or you can place it in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Once the chocolate is melted, ser aside while you get on with the custard.
In a saucepan warm the milk and cream. Whisk the egg yolks, sugar, and cocoa in a large bowl. Pour the warm milk and cream into the bowl whisking it into the yolks and sugar mixture. Stir in the melted chocolate, scraping the sides well with a rubber spatula to get all of it in, and pour the custard back into the rinsed saucepan. Cook over a medium heat until the custard thickens, stirring all the time. Make sure it doesn't boil, as it will split and curdle. Keep a sink full of cold water so that if you get scared you can plunge the bottom of the custard pan into the cold water and
whisk like mad, which will avert possible crisis.
The custard will get darker as it cooks and the flecks of chocolate will melt once the custard has thickened. And you do need this thick, so don't panic so much that you stop cooking while it is still runny. Admittedly, it continues to thicken as it cools and also when it's chilling in the refrigerator. Once it is ready, pour into a bowl to cool and cover the top of the custard with cling wrap to prevent a skin from forming.
When the custard is cold, pour and spread it over the chocolate cake layer in the trifle bowl, and leave in the refrigerator to set, covered in cling wrap overnight.
When you are ready to decorate, softly whip the cream for the topping and spread it gently over the layer of custard. Grate the chocolate over the top.
This is a great recipe- A can of pumpkin, a box of chocolate cake mix, and bob's your uncle. Mix them together, place in oven at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Take them out, let them cool. They are supposed to be very soft and easy to tear, and squishy. They are to die for and are easy to freeze for later!
This is an awesome dessert. I have had it several times. Made it a couple as well...sooooo mmm mmm good.
Strawberry Pretzel Squares
2 cups finely crushed pretzels(either salted or not, your preference...I use salted)
1/2 cup sugar, divided
2/3 cup melted butter or margarine
12 oz. (1-1 1/2 8 oz pkg) Cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp. milk
1 cup thawed Cool Whip
2 cups boiling water*
1 pkg. Strawberry Jello
1 1/2 cups cold water
2 pints strawberries, sliced
Preheat over to 350 degrees. Mix crushed pretzels, 1/4 cup of the sugar and butter Press firmly onto bottom of 13x9 inch baking pan. Bake 10 minutes. Cool.
Beat cream cheese, remaining sugar and milk until smooth. Gently stir in whipped cream. Spread over crust. Refrigerate.
*Meanwhile, stir boiling water into jello in large bowl at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Stir in cold water. Refrigerate 1-1 1/2 hours or until slightly thickened(consistancy of unbeaten egg whites). Stir in strawberries. Spoon over cheese layer.
Refrigerate 3 hours or until firm. Cut into squares.
*If you don't like Jello(like me) then omit all the ingredients after the cool whip and all the step making the Jello. After the cheese mixture has been setting for the hour or so I will just put thawed frozen strawberries over the top, including all the juices that occur while thawing. It tastes out of this world. Hope you enjoy.

Easy Yummy Trifle

1 Large (family size) box of Instant Vanilla Pudding
Heath Bar Candy (I use half a bag of the bite sized bars)
Kahlua (if desired)
Follow the directions and make the cake. Let it cool completely.
Next make the pudding. I use 3 parts milk 1 part Kahlua (usually 1 1/2 cups milk 1/2 cup Kahlua) Let it set.
Toss the Heath Bar in the food processor until it is chopped into small pieces.
Once the cake has cooled, in a Large bowl, layer pieces of cake, covering the bottom of the bowl. Next layer is pudding, then some heath candy, more cake, cool whip, cake, pudding, candy, (repeat as necessary). The last layer should be cool whip, and then use the finest pieces of heath to cover the top.

Cook hash browns in 3 tbsp of butter untill brown. Slice sausages into bite size pieces, brown them in a seperate pan. Add the cooked sausages to the hash browns. In the pan you cooked the sausages in, scramble and cook the eggs, add them to the hash browns and sausages...finally, add your cheese on top of everything...and presto!

an easy snack I make, or finger food if I'm having a party...
puff pastry - cut into small squares, triangles whatever you like, then put on lined baking tray, spread with a little pesto, top with a slice of tomato and some fetta cheese crumbled up, bake in the oven until they look golden and yum.... then eat them! You can use different pestos, but the basil one is best I think.
If it's just for you just cut the pastry into quarters and put a few tomato slices on each piece, I make it 16 pieces with one slice each if it is to be finger food.
