Cheese rolls

My little one loves food. She's ever willing to try anything new and that's a mother's dream right?! But she hates milk and I try to get calcium into her whenever I can. She loves all milk products though, curd, cheese, butter, paneer... so I'm a happy momma.. :D... She loves opening her lunchbox to cheese sandwiches so I thought I'd try and give her something different... but essentially the same.

You'll need
2 slices of bread
2 cheese slices
1 tablespoon of butter

Cut off the sides of the bread. It helps if the bread is really fresh. Roll the bread to flatten it with a rolling pin. Put a slice of cheese on it and roll the bread into a tight scroll. Pinch the edges of the bread to make it stick. Repeat with the other slice. Heat the butter in a pan and place the rolled up bread in it. Keep moving it around to prevent one part of the bread from soaking up all the butter. Once the butter is evenly soaked up by the bread reduce the heat to a slow flame and toast the bread to a crisp. The slow flame will allow the cheese to melt wonderfully.
Done!

Black and White Banana Cake

I have a few over ripe bananas sitting on my counter and I didn't want to end up making a simple banana bread. I've seen chocolate chip banana bread recipes, but this black and white one caught my eye. Take a look.

Lamington

I don't know what we did before Google came on the scene. We just did without knowing certain things I guess. The point is I went for my niece's birthday party on Saturday and the caterer had served up these little chocolate squares. I bit into one thinking it was a solid block of chocolate. But no! Hiding inside a layer of chocolate was a piece of chocolate sponge cake! The cake was completely enveloped by the chocolate and tasted absolutely yum. I got home and the googled "cake layered in chocolate" and boom... the result was picture upon picture of Lamingtons. I kept up the googling and found my mystery dessert. Lamington it was. Only traditional lamingtons call for a layer of coconut on the chocolate. I think you can skip it altogether and it will still be awesome. Take a look at this recipe I found that made me quite confident I could try my hand at this. Thank you mrs-delicious.com. :)
