my nemesis nemesis

Oh well. My 'easy small nemesis' ended up as a sloppy mess. Pretty much everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong - I misread the recipe, and put things in in the wrong order, I didn't have a baking tray big enough too use as a bain marie for my cake tin, so ended up using a bowl within a bowl, and my cooker doesn't go low enough for the recipe.

Needless to say, this didn't turn out well. At least I now have a bowlful of something between mousse and pudding to eat.

Next time I'll try their 15 minute cake, which seems similar to the chocolate oblivion recipes on some food blogs I've seen, or the chocolate torte, that just fridges.

Or maybe I'll learn that the River Cafe Easy generally isn't easy and makes far more washing up than any other cookboook I've got.

I take solace in this and this.
