    I made a chocolate pizza. It looks good. Although not very neat where I tried to 'slice' it before it was too set. Will attemp to post a picture later.
  • Was looking on tinterweb and found this youtube how to video on a cookie pizza so it isnt a chocolate slap but a huge cookie instead, thought id share incase its useful to anyone else :)

    I don't know if this has been mentioned, but one of the reasons I can't eat choc from my local deli is that they polish their chocs with almond oil to make them shiny.

    It's amazing how those with a can-do attitude and willingness to 'pitch in and work' get all the luck, isn't it?

    Please consider buying some pet food and giving it to your local food bank collection or animal charity. Animals aren't to blame for the cost of living crisis.

    there are some instructions and pictures for chocolate peppermint creams here.
    For shortening, I'd use white vegetable fat

    can anyone point me in the right direction to find out how to attach a photo to my post? I've tried in FAQ, and I've tried searching the forums, but i can't seem to see it.

    Make an account with a site like Photobucket, upload the picture you want to the site. Then when you hover over the picture in your Photobucket album, it will show the Image [img]code. Highlight the code, copy it and paste it into your post. Sorry that sounded really confusing, I think some people do it another way but that's the way I always do it :) If you get a bit stuck, just ask again :)[/img]
