Making
Ice Cream on a lazy Sunday afternoon is always a task that I love, especially
when I have the ingredients on hand and loathe buying Ice Cream. This is why I
love Christmas so much, as I get to eat as much Chocolate and Ice Cream as I
desire!
Especially
if it’s Ben and Jerry’s Satisfy My Bowl Ice Cream in a tip of the Hat and
fitting tribute on Bob Marley’s 70th Birthday and the 30th
Anniversary of his album Legend as described in my blog article
entitled “Ben
and Jerry's Bob Marley-themed Satisfy My Bowl Ice Cream flavour - 30th
Anniversary Tribute to Bob Marley's Legend for his 1Love Foundation”.
My
version of Chocolate Ice Cream Glows-in-the-Dark and is made thanks to the
wonder of the US$25.95 Zoku Ice Cream Bowl as described in my blog article
entitled “How
to make Glow-In-The Dark Ice Cream from Scratch - US$25.95 Zoku Ice Cream Bowl
makes Avatar The Last Airbender Frozen Novelties”.
But
ever so often, when I do buy Ice Cream in Swallowfield, I usually opt to buy a
JA$200 Tub of Ice Cream and with some extra-large Chocolate Chip Cookies, make
some Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwich, a Sunday Favourite as detailed in
my blog
article entitled “How
Singles Cook on a Budget - Vegetable Ring Fried Eggs, Bacon in a Pancake
Blanket and Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwich”.
One
thing I hate though it the fact that after eating Ice Cream in Swallowfield
where I live near to the National Stadium and even when I’m back home in Milk
River, Clarendon, is the fact that I have to clean up. I mean, not the Zoku Ice
Cream Bowl, as that’s to make the Ice Cream. Rather, I’m referring to the Bowl
and plates that I have to wash up after whipping up a good batch of Ice Cream.
So
why not make the Bowls edible? Folks, hang tight, ‘cause if you’re a true
chocoholic and you loved my Glow-in-The-Dark Iced Coffee Chocolate Milk as
described in my blog article
entitled “How
to Make Glow-in-The-Dark Iced Coffee Chocolate Milk – How Coffee can be made
healthy for Children”, then you’re gonna love this my latest DIY (Do It
Yourself) that’ll be a hit for Christmas 2014.
How to Make Edible
Chocolate Bowls for Ice Cream – Satisfy My Bowl that’s Sweet to Eat
Yes,
this is a lot like having an Ice Cream cone, but made of Chocolate as shown below.
But
instead of a flat bland taste, it’s made of chocolate. And the ingredients
needed are quite simple:
1.
Pack of Small Balloons
2.
Air Pump
3.
Large Plastic Container
4.
12 oz of Dark Chocolate
5.
Stainless Steel Non Stick Pot
6.
Stainless Steel Tray
7.
Aluminium Foil or Grease Paper
8.
Glass Mixing Bowl
9.
Cooking Thermometer
The
instructions are simple:
1.
Get a pack of Balloons and an Air Pump
2.
Blow up the Balloons using the Air Pump
3.
Place the Balloons in a Large Plastic
Container so that they don’t burst or drift away and get Dirty
4.
Melt the 12 oz of Dark Chocolate using a
Stainless Steel Non Stick Pot
5.
Set a Stainless Steel Tray covered with
Aluminium Foil or Grease Paper
6.
Pour the melted Dark Chocolate into a
Glass Mixing Bowl
7.
Wait until the Dark Chocolate has cooled
to 40◦C (104◦F)
8.
Take each balloon and dip in the warm
Dark Chocolate and twirl the balloon, coating the bottom of the Balloon
9.
Take a spoon and place a dollop of
melted Dark Chocolate onto the Aluminium Foil or Grease Paper
10.
Place the balloon previous dipped in
melted Chocolate onto the dollop of melted Dark Chocolate onto the Aluminium
Foil or Grease Paper
11.
Repeat for the other Balloons
12.
Let them cool until hard
13.
Pop the balloons and Voila! Instant Edible
Chocolate Bowls for Ice Cream!
That
it folks!
With
these Edible Chocolate Bowls for Ice Cream, you just eat the bowl and no messy
bowl to wash up afterwards. Best of all, it a great excuse to blow some
balloons and in fact is a great segue for a Hydrogen Filled Floating Balloon Project.
But that’s for another time. Ciao!
