Serradura (Special Halloween "Heaven")

This recipe I publish below is one of my favorites. I remember when I used to go to the countryside to spend the weekend & there my aunt Maria prepared us this sweet and delicious dessert. The Serradura is a typical Portuguese dessert & because of its taste and texture will transport you to a moment of pleasure that you are going to believe you are in heaven.

Ingredients:

- 1 packet of Cookies.

- 500ml of Cream.

- 390gr of Condensed Milk.

Elaboration:

This recipe is super simple and quick to make, so the first step is crushed cookies in a blender or grinder and reserve. Then we whip the cream and once done, add to this the condensed milk and mix with outflanking movements (circular) not to lower the whipped cream.

Once you have everything is time to create our dessert in small glasses. We'll start by putting a layer of biscuit and then another layer with the mixture of cream and condensed milk, let cool about 10 minutes in the refrigerator. After those 10 minutes, decorate with the curshed biscuit and that's all!.

After a good summer break, it's time again to share with you new and wonderful recipes to sweeten your life a little more.

Ingredients:

- 300gr of Oreo Cookies.

- 100gr of Nutella or Cacao Cream.

- Milk Chocolate.

- White Chocolate.

- Lollipop Sticks.

Elaboration:

The first step is to grind the cookies. Once we have them, we add the cacao cream and mix all well. With the resulting "dough" we will make balls with the size we want (preferably not too large) and put them on a plate or tray.

Then we melt the two types of chocolate, each separately. When we have the melted chocolate, dip the tip of the sticks and nailed a little on the balls, we will let the chocolate solidifies inside the ball.
