:( :)

Coconut yogurt did NOT turn out well. It tastes SUPER good, but it's like water. I think I screwed up by putting the powdered milk when I took it out of the crock pot. I added 2 tablespoons and now the curds float instead of sinking, so I can't pour out the excess whey. :( But the stuff tastes really good with nothing added. I'll have to play with it til I perfect it cause it's yummy!!!!

Russian cream is amazing! I added frozen blueberries and it reminds me of the fruit and yogurt parfait at McDonalds! LMAO!

Oh and I'll have to try the pudding recipe later today! That looks pretty good too!

Mmm.

So Hubby's work is taking us out to dinner this sat at a VERY nice restaurant. So we were looking at their menu and I saw something I'd never heard of before so I looked it up. Russian creme. I found a recipe on Recipezaar. It looked soooo easy to make I figured what the hell? I'll try it. Oh and I can make it Gabe ok very easily!!!! Woot!
3/4 a cup of sugar
1/2 a cup water
1 packet plain gelatin

Stir these together in a pan and let sit 5 min. Then on med heat bring to a boil stirring constantly. Remove from heat.

Add in 1 cup heavy whipping cream

put to the side.

Mix 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 and 1/2 a cup sour cream.

Mix the two mixtures very well. Pour into 4 glasses. Then put in fridge for 4-5 hours. Garnish with fresh fruit. (they suggest strawberries and blue berries, but we can't do strawberries)

OMG SOOOOOOOOOOO YUMMY! I took a few tastes and I think this is my new favorite dessert!

I also got stuff to make the boys vanilla pudding tomorrow. Mmmmm. Oh and my coconut yogurt is still thickening, but it smells really good! Smells sweeter than with regular milk, a LOT sweeter! LOL!

Hrm...

I think tomorrow I'm gonna try making yogurt again. Only this time I'm making it with coconut milk. Mmmmmm.Can you believe that we have almost finished that whole GALLON of yogurt already!?!?!?! Yikes! LOL! Link especially LOVED it! It was a tad tart for me. I like mine sweeter so I didn't have quite as much, but Link will eat 2 bowls in a sitting easy. LMAO Gabe actually preferred the plain one! Weird child. So apparently he like the tart taste. He just asks me to add in a few frozen blueberries. But anyways I want to try it with coconut milk. And if I get a chance to go to the health food store. (yea I doubt it) then I'm gonna pick up some powdered carob or cocoa powder and potato starch to make homemade pudding. Mmmmm! I'm looking forward to trying this recipe out!
