<b><i>Hello Friends </i></b></div>

<b><i>Herewith Merry Christmas is nearing!!!! It is story related cake. I have been This cake inspired me to bake as we had seen Malayalam Film as SALT N PEPPER wanting to do it and the wait is over.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>The same movie name has been remake in different languages..In that scene, A hero gives Juan's Rainbow cake recipe to the heroine and they tried the recipes together in different homes and been communicated over phone for recipe and experience and so on. This story behind the cake is so amazed to hear and It is all about Juan, A french lady who had waited for her hubby for his return from the 2nd world war far away from home.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i> On her first day of wait, She baked a delicious Strawberry cake for him and in turn he didn't come. It is so disappointed. </i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>Second Day, She again baked a Pistachio cake for him and still didn't turn.It is disappointment again. She made 2 cakes joined and covered each layer with whipped cream.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>Third Day, She made orange cake and still her wait continued on and on...still he didn't come.She went to bed at the same day with disappointment.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>Next Morning, Her hubby had arrived at their home and saw his ladylove giving a box of gifted chocolates.They felt very happy meeting after long time. She had come back to the kitchen and stacked all the 3 cakes covered with whipped cream and each layer is covered with whipped cream.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>Finally she melted the chocolates and poured it over the top of the cake and topped with fruit and served a cake to her hubby. :) They ate it together of his return and their never end loving story... It is so beautiful story and I liked it .. </i></b></div>

<b><i>Hello Friends!</i></b><br />
<b><i><br /></i></b>
<b><i>I have chosen Vanilla Sponge cake as it has no eggs and replaced it with yogurt as It goes great for vegetarian friends who does not want to use cake with eggs. My friend wants mini yogurt based simple cake with little bit cream on the top for their taste approval... I have decided why not use cut out cakes with the help of cookie cutter circle size. I want to give idea and impress my friend...I made round shaped 8 inch cake and cut into round shaped mini cake with the help of round cookie cutter....Is n't it nice idea? My friend had enjoyed it with a big bite on it and cannot wait to bake cake for their next order on birthday!!!Hoping to get through!!!!!</i></b><br />

<b><i> I have been wanting this for long time...I didn't get time to bake it as It is already in my list what to bake next!!! Always being as a baker I always try new different cakes and found out it is very chocolatey and coated with desiccated coconut. It is super challenging and It came out in my 1st attempt. It is originated from Australia...It is super sponge cake filled with chocolate frosting and coated with coconut flakes. It is so heavenly and it is super wet and it can never be dry inside.It tasted really like bounty chocolate :)</i></b><br />

<i><b> It was very calm day as my kid was enjoying holidays with us and My kid won't eat ragi along with milk..I was thinking how to make her eat ragi as She likes laddoo but never mention what is the name and what ever she sees in the shape of ball will be laddoo..She loves boondi laddoo, Rava laddoo,but she never tasted ragi..I visited her blog and got it as super easy step by step wise and excellent writing on her blog Thanks a lots Priya for this wonderful recipe. My daughter loved it and said it was awesome :) I chosen almond as she will have double strength as she won't eat any dry fruits except almond and raisins... </b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<b><i>It has been super hectic day today and I made Eggless Kulkuls and It reminds me when my hubby talked abt his visit at Goa!!! We went to Goan restaurant at my place and very humble lady talked about Goan's cuisines and desserts and many flavors.It is alike to Kerala's Cuisine but tasted very differently. I was being tempted by hearing all her stories and her time during Christmas holidays here. It was best time ever with her at her restaurant. It is the best snack ever during Christmas at Goa!! I love it because the design made me feeling to try for it. I have been wanting to make it and it came out good atleast in my 1st attempt.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i><br /></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>Once on Friday I was thinking what to make for my friends!! I want to try something different apart from South Indian snacks...So opted for kulkuls. I made a small batch as it is my 1st attempt so it came out better </i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>My family and my friends ate it and loved it. It is almost gone within less than 30 mins and asked me how to make/Thanks a lots <a href="http://www.cooklikepriya.com/">Priya </a>for the best snack ever !!! Go visit her blog and you ll see baked goodies for Christmas time or as a snack along with a cup of Tea </i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i><br /></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>It is sweet version mixed with flout sugar vanilla extract and make into dough.

<ul style="margin: 0.5em 0px; padding: 0px 2.5em; text-align: left;"><b><i><br /></i></b>
<li><b><i>3 cups All purpose flour </i></b></li>
<li><b><i>2 cups whole wheat flour </i></b></li>
<li><b><i>½ cup oil – for kneading the dough</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>¼ cup ghee – for kneading the dough (Optional)</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>½ tsp cumin powder </i></b></li>
<li><b><i>1 tsp black pepper powder</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>1 tsp carom seeds</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Salt to taste</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>1 cup Freshly chopped coriander leaves</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>1 tbsp dried fenugreek leaves </i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Oil - for deep frying</i></b></li>
</ul>
<div>
<b><i><br /></i></b></div>
<div>
<b><i><u>Method:</u></i></b></div>
<div>
<ol>
<li><b><i>Sieve all the flours together into a wide bowl. Add all the spices,coriander leaves,oil and ghee.</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Knead it well to a hard dough ball.</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>It should b harder than chappathi dough.</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Once the dough is ready and cover it with a kitchen towel and set aside for about 20 to 30 minutes.</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Once time has been set, Knead it again for a minute and divide into small balls of an equal size.</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Flatten it between your palms gently. It will b bit crack from the side as it is hard and it is fine with that</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Heat the oil in the wok or kadai on medium high flame. To test the oil ready,drop a pinch of dough to it and check whether the ball comes up sizzling and it is ready for the mathris to fry </i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Reduce it on Medium flame</i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Add the flattened balls at-least 3 to 4 pieces at a time. </i></b></li>
<li><b><i>Cook it for about 10 to 12 minutes or until it is light brown on both sides..Keep on flipping the sides.</i></b></li>

<b><i>Cracker is savory cookie..It is very thin,crisp and seasoned with top like dried herbs and salt.It goes well with dipping sauce or cheese or butter spread.These crackers can be yeast raised or baking powder raised.It is drilled with holes by using fork or tooth pick in order to prevent raising of dough during baking.</i></b></div>
