Peanut Butter $ Jelly Ice cream Sandwiches cheekyricho video recipe

Strawberries are cheap, luscious and plentiful at the moment and we have a whole playlist on our cheekyricho YouTube channel Dedicated to this delightful little berry. I wanted to make something original and summery to showcase Madame Strawberry but I am having a Gourmet Ice cream moment, no make that fortnight and with the warmer weather upon us and my penchant for sitting out in my garden road testing my latest icy creation, this little idea popped into my head and I simply had to make it. It's fantastic, the crunchy salty peanut flavour blended into a creamy rich Icecream layered top and bottom with home made fresh strawberry jam, then sandwiched between two Icecream wafers. Hang on don't drool yet, I'm not finished. Believe it or not you can wrap these individually in Baking Paper and pop them bake into the freezer. Unwrap them at will and you have a ready made moisture proof plate to catch any wayward drips. Don't ask me how the wafers stay crunchy but they do, I think the gooey jam protects them. I don't know about the science involved but I do know this is so easy to make and eat you would be crazy not to give it a try. Depending on you wafer sizes this recipe makes 10 cheekyricho Peanut Butter and Jello Icecream Sandwiches.

Pickled Eggs cheekyricho YouTube video recipe

Cheekyricho Pickled Eggs. I am often asked what to do with an excess of fresh eggs. Baking is the obvious answer, meringues, pavlova, egg custards, quiches and of course lemon butter or lemon curd. On a recent trip to far North Queensland we stopped off at a Farmers Market, I love visiting country markets, buying fresh produce for our camp meals, sampling locally produced unusual preserves and baked goods. Many old fashioned home cooks donate their 'specialty' to local charitable organisations for cakes stalls etc, quite often using ingredients not available where we live. At one of these markets I bought some home pickled eggs. They were great, with fridge space at a premium (because prefers cold beer) anything that can be stored unrefrigerated is a bonus. These eggs don't require chilling, keep for up to two years and are perfect for salads and consuming with aforementioned cold beer as the sun goes down whilst gazing out over some picture perfect vista. Him day dreaming about travels made or to be made and me busily writing out recipes and jotting ideas for my YouTube channel Into already bulging notebooks. 

First job when I got home was to bring you Pickled Eggs. So simple, makes use of an abundance of eggs and are a great high protein snack when out in the kayak. We hope you give this recipe a try, the hardest part is waiting the 8 days until the pickling solution has done its magic, before you can eat them.

Awesome 3 ingredient Aussie Damper

My neighbour shared his Aussie Damper Recipe with me and I had to share it with you. Not passing this fantastic recipe on is bordering on criminal negligence. It's idiot proof, smells and looks just like home baked bread and cooks in 15 minutes in the camp oven over a camp fire. Take the lid off the camp oven and you are greeted with the smell if home baked bread, except it has no yeast, fat or eggs in it. It's light fluffy and fragrant, you can bust it open and eat a chunk, slice and butter it or even toast it and eat it hot and crusty slathered in butter and golden syrup. 

 We are really getting into Happy Hour down by the river sitting around a camp fire eating home baked treasures with a glass of something cold. Check it out and so much more on our cheekyricho YouTube channel. http://youtu.be/J_l4GCCEVsw

Apple Cinnamon Almond Damper

Cooked to perfection in a Bedourie Camp Oven over hot coals in an Open Fire. There is a sweet almond, spicy moist filling looped all through this fluffy soft damper, with fresh crisp tart Granny Smith apples slivers wedged into the folds, then brushed with milk sprinkled with raw sugar into a pan onto a trivet and popped into the camp oven. Coals are ready, camp oven onto a couple of well Placed stones in the fireplace and a few shovels of coals ontop of the lid, resist the urge to peek because this baby is going to need 25-30 minutes. It slices beautifully, the apples are just tender, the sugar has turn to a bubbly toffee like coating and the fresh baked aroma is .... An experience to remember. Cut a couple of hot wedges to impress Arthur, My neighbour who says "that's not a Damper it's a tea cake." But then he gave it an 11/10, that is better than good enough for me.  Arthur is not prone to  being too frivolous with compliments. He also claims to be a Damper Expert and has offered to teach me his special recipe. Arthur and his family have been camping forever and when he says he can make the best Damper you had better believe him.  That   Recipe is coming soon.
