After reading the ingredients, I bet it’s nice and dense and fudgie? That’s a chocolate cake should be.

I’m really craving mall now. And you’re right it has to be with a mild chocolate flavor, otherwise it just tastes horrible. I remember adding too much chocolate and it and it just didn’t work. And I remember if I add too much malt that doesn’t work either. It has to be a moderate amount of both to be perfect. Just that light brown color.

I’ll try to remember who to send you a recipe tomorrow for a chocolate malt whipped cream. I had it once at a creamery that served the most luscious desserts. Instead of putting the malt with the ice cream they put it in the whipped cream. And it was amazing! The same flavor as an ice cream chocolate malt. And then you layer it in between vanilla ice cream Yum ! I like to go out to eat and find things I really like and then try to duplicate them at home. Mainly because I am cheap :-) but it’s also rewarding when it works out.

I would appreciate the recipe for the choc malt whipped cream. I have a pint which may have gone sour. It depends these days. If you don't open them, they seem to keep past the expiry date but you can't push too far and the one cup cartons the brand the store carries gets clotty sometimes.

I was looking at what I need to make that cake, guess it's the 4 serving size of Jello choc fudge or regular choc instant. Be sure to use instant. And only use with Duncan Hines mixes (no I'm not paid by them lol) because the others already have pudding in the mix.

I'll get back to my malts but today it is fish. I get to craving fish. Have to thaw some out and cook it, was comparing two recipes that bread and bake catfish filets (it's not the same as our Mississippi catfish) but good. Then I have to get two more frozen packages used up so will bake that without breading.

Then I HAVE to thaw out my 2 beef shanks and make veggie soup, have everything for that. And I always make a lot but don't use a recipe except the one in my head. Love the new broths and stocks and Better than Boullion, have to be careful with the latter.

And I'm a potato girl, time for more of those. Love those packages of Idahoan and Betty Crocker instant mashed. They are different from my home made but very good, the kind where you add your own milk and butter, didn't like the kind you just add water.

So I've got plenty to keep me busy. And thanks again for all the fun talk!
