Back to the Basics...Fresh Blog Design

Ok so its not a....


DESIGN....


per say, BUT I felt like my blog was really hard to read with all those elements crashing into each other! I have to take the time out to make my own background/template and nice header that really identifies with what I am doing here.

So I took off the buns of this greasy hamburger and left you with the MEAT...yes the blog and any other important information for you guys....

I should have something in the next month or so by way of making this little bloggy more snazzy...but until then I hope you enjoy what I have to offer!!

Designers and DIY'rs please write to me I am in need of your advice!


Thanks guys :)

Thanks for reading!

UPDATE 09/26/2011: I now have a legit design by the lovely WonderForest!! :)

Let's Make Puerto Rican Food: Tembleque Tutorial

Dessert....mmmmmmmm

Coconutty goodness!

So after a yummy Dinner....

Desert should come rather easy!

(OK so I spelled it both ways and I FORGOT how to spell it! lol Ever obsess look at a word too long and it starts to look completely foreign? LOL well thats what happened here!)

It's time to gather the ingredients!

Ingredients needed (recipe borrowed from food.com):

• 7 ounces cream of coconut (approx 1/2 can)
• 2 1/2 cups milk ( I replaced this with coconut milk, and in the future it would be wise to do half and half)
• 1/2 cup cornstarch (This may be too much, so I adjusted it for less cornstarch so it would be more TREMBLY)
• 4 tablespoons sugar (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

GROUND cinnamon and Shredded Coconut to top!

Mix all the ingredients in a medium to large saucepan except for toppings and stir VERY WELL.

This is what it should look like after mixing well, ignore the slotted spoon, a whisk works best!

Turn on stove to medium to high heat and NEVER. STOP. STIRRING.

It will start to thicken, it will also bubble but if you are stirring constantly you may never notice.
Continue for ONLY another ONE minute!

This is where you want it, nice and goopy! :) 

Fill your cups!

Sprinkle your favorite topping!

Let it cool a bit, then wrap in cling wrap and refrigerate overnight!

Or save a nice warm one for yourself, and sleep like a baby!

mmmmmmm

 let me know how your versions turn out or if you have any recommendations to the recipes! I would love to try them out!
