Here are some recipes from my daughters cookbook for your kids to try-

Chocolate Mousse

6 1/2 oz. dark chocolate, broken into pieces
2 Tbsp. butter
1/2 cup cream
4 egg whites
3 Tbsp. sugar

Place the chocolate, butter and cream in a saucepan over very low heat. Stir until the chocolate has melted, then take it off the heat and pour it into a large bowl to cool.
Put the egg whites in the bowl and with an electric mixer beat it until light and foamy. Sprinkle with the sugar and beat until th egg whites has peaks that stand up, be careful not to overbeat it.
Fold the egg white into the chocolate mixture with a metal spoon, being careful not to stir out the air. Spoon the mousse into glasses and refrigerate until firm.

Serves 4






Garlic, Herb, and Cheese Breads
4 long buns or small baguettes

Garlic butter-
2 cloves garlic, crushed
3 Tbsp. butter, softened

Herb butter-
2 tsp. mixed dried herbs
3 Tbsp. butter, softened

Chessy butter-
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
2 Tbsp. butter, softened

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Slice the bread all the way along, but without cutting all the way through it.
To make the different butters, place the garlic and butter, herbs and butter and cheese, and butter in seperate bowls and mix well. Spread the butter into the cuts in the bread.
Wrap the bread in aluminum foil an put on a baking tray. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes so that the butter melts and the bread is warm.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the macaroons are just starting to brown. Cool on the trays before serving.
