Chocolate Coated Almond Biscuits
How much I love cooking for friends, lately it is growing on me with every meal. Food fills our home with treasures; laughter, stories, happiness. Truly nothing and nothing gives me the pleasure more than having friends and family over a meal. It sets the mood and lights my heart, if you know what I mean. Today I was going to have special visitors. Our friend’s twin daughters, born 10 minutes apart, they are absolutely adorable. I had to make them chocolate coated biscuits, the ones that we had on our ‘phoren’ holidays, or the more ‘desi’ version that we get at the Niligiris in Bangalore. My experiment in kitchen today worked wonders, the little ones licked into the chocolate till the entire biscuit was visible, and then munched into the biscuit oblivious of anything around. Hands, nose, mouth all decorated with chocolate, until they left traces on their pretty dresses. I want to keep them forever, cuddle them and pick and cook every mors
