Hmm, sounds like it would be fun to make these special Christmas cakes together..............more "ingredients" to share.
Yes, wouldn't it?! :D We'd have to change one of the major ingredients though, if I were to join - I hate whisky! What do you say we change it to Rum! ;)Quote:

BETTER THAN SEX CAKE
Bake a box German Chocolate cake.
Take a hollow ice cream scoop handle and poke 12 holes in the cake.
Take caramel or butterscotch syrup and fill each hole with it.
Frost the cake with Cool Whip
Sprinkle crushed Butterfinger candy bar on top.
Enjoy!!
Ingredients:
Box German Chocolate Cake
Caramel syrup or butterscotch syrup
Cool Whip
Butterfingers Candy Bar
This cake is SINFUL and very rich!!
I would hate to see ANYONE making the Fruit cake along with the Better than Sex cake...while it might be fun (Yikes, don't tell my mom about this), it could be diasterous! :eek:
Here's a recipe for a nice and healthy sidedish, and it's easy! ;)
This is for 2 persons.
3-4 Jerusalem artichokes
1 cup (about 1/2 pint of whipping cream - (is that single or double?)
1 egg
1 piece of garlic
salt
pepper
a little chives
Boil Jerusalem artichokes for 5 min., let them cool, slice them into thin slices. Put them into a greased owenproff bowl. Stir the egg, crushed garlic, chives, cream, salt and pepper and pour it over.
Bake in oven for about 30-40 min. until slightly brown on top. Serve as a sidedish with meat.

Kohala, it's not ginger root! I've looked it up (didn't think it would be in my dictonary at first) and it says: Jerusalem artichoke. :eek:
Ahhhhh - that makes more sense with the recipe. I used to use a lot of ginger in cooking, and was trying to imagine the flavors! This makes a lot more sense:D !!!! It does look like ginger root, tho, don't you think?Quote:

(BTW - I still get a big smilie every time I see that Fister pose!!!!!)
That is a strange looking root veggie. I think it is artichoke, just shaped differently. The rest of the recipe would go with plain artichokes.
I am not familiar with them, so looked them up. Here's a link:http://www.growinglifestyle.com/article/s0/a56671.htmlQuote:

Interesting, and apparently very deceptively named.
Thank you, I'd heard of this vegetable, but only in generic terms. I appreciate the additional info.
How funny! It certainly did look like ginger! LOL Where would I be able to pick up these Jerusalem artichokes? What do they taste like? I'm very interested in trying that recipe:) They certainly look different from the artichokes I'm used to (which I use to make a really yummy artichoke cheese dip! YUM!).
Perhaps I could find them at Whole Foods??
If anyone wants more Indian recipes, do let me know!:D
Kohala, thanks a lot for posting the link, it's very informative. I must admit, I've only just noticed these in Denmark. Someone made a dish with them and I really liked it, so I asked, but not all greengrocers here sell them. - I bet they're healthy too! :D
We have them on sale over here in the UK 0- perhaps it's a European veggie?
