rocky road

I decided to make rocky roads today because it had a simple recipe and didn't need baking in the over but sadly I didnt have the camera with me so didn't take any pictures but because it tasted real good I must put it up for future.

Ingredients:


200g of milk chocolate
75 g of dark chocolate
25 g unsalted butter
100g of marshmallows cut into pieces
90g of glazed cherries
50g peanuts

Method

1. Line a 3cm-deep, 8 x 25cm bar pan with plastic wrap.
2. Place the milk and dark chocolates with the butter in a saucepan and stir till melt
3. Stir marshmallows into chocolate with remaining ingredients.
4. Spread into pan, chill in fridge for 2 hours or until hard.
5. Slice and eat!

What's so good about this is that you can put anything you want, such as raisins, other types of nuts, turkish delights and the list can go on!

I will definately make this again and probably add more peanuts and marshmallow in the mix because there was too much "brown"/chocolate or perhaps my stirring isnt very well mixed =)

Eph 3:20

This month at church we are studying the book of Ephesians so I thought I should use that as part of my reading time. Ehephians has many good verses and this one stood out to me because it is often taught but it never really sinks into my spirit...

"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us!"

Wow, my God can do so much so much more x10000000000000000000000 more than what I can imagine my life to be! I am so often limited to my fears, and what my own natural eyes can see and therefore easily give up or feel helpless. God, on the other hand gives and does more than what we ask of him & it may not be what we envision it to be but if I step out in faith and not limit him in my box I'm sure what he does in my life definately goes beyond what I can imagine!

I know I have to keep putting my trust in God for the things that I do not yet see but know that it will come in his timing and even better!
