Posted November 14, 2018 In light of recent threats against the balance of the universe, I hereby create this guild to honor and protect the Order of Chocolate. (And I fully expect an eggnog rival to arise soon, so I will save me time and effort in the future by just declaring war on them now.) 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 14, 2018 A fellow speaker of truth. I will join you in your noble goals. And I’m pretty much already at war with them - they have put a bounty on my head. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 14, 2018 That order I definitly have to join! @Silva maybe we can offer some kind of protection. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) Declaring war against a guild that doesn’t exist yet? I like the sound of that Edit: I hereby declare war on the Medium-Lighted Alley. They haven’t arrived yet, but the name is too perfect not to be used in the future, so I’m saving the time and effort and declaring war on it now.

Posted November 14, 2018 I don't normally join any guilds (Knights of the Cosmere is the only one, and it's not really a guild as much as it's a writing group), but this is a must. I feel a need to be a part of this noble cause. I hereby swear myself to the Order/Guild(?) of Chocolate, may it forever be defended in its great chocolateyness. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) Here's one of my favourite cakes. A short notice: according to an american colleague our german food isn't sweet enough. So maybe you need to add more sugar or some syrup. 200g butter 200g sugar 4 eggs (mediums sized) 2 EL cocoa 1/2 TL cinnamon 125g hazlenuts (grinded) 200g flour 10g backing powder 4 apples bake around 1 hour, at 170°C (around 338 F), reduce after ca 40 min to 165-160 (333-328 F) Grate the apples and put them aside. Put the eggs and the sugar in a bowl and stir, until you have some small bubbles in the dough and it's fluffy. Then add the butter and stir again. Afterwards slowly add the flour mixed with the backing powder. Then add the rest, the apples last. Put everything into a circular baking pan and bake. Add some powdered sugar on top, directly before serving. Side note: a TL is a teaspoon, an EL a tablespoon. If you have any questions just ask! I'll translate another recipe for some cookies when I find the time to translate it.

Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) 4 minutes ago, I am a STICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! said: Sooooo a tablespoon? That sounds right Thank you!!! 4 minutes ago, I am a STICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! said: tempered chocolate? white? Milk? Dark? 100%? only cocoa, that's enough. And I mean the one you use for baking, without sugar of other stuff, only cocoa. Not the powder you can use to make a hot chocolate. But you can add of course chocolate. 4 minutes ago, I am a STICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! said: glaze? Frosting? Sry, that one I forgot. I'll edit it in. Add some powdered sugar directly before serving. If you add in earlier it will get soaked into the cake. I can also add a picture when I bake it the next time, but that's probably after christmas, because I'll be making gingerbread and other christmas cookies next. Edit: forgot to answer the question about the guild: This is no Alleyverse guild, but simply a "guild" open for all who like chocolate. It's purpose is chocolate. So it's more a fun thing, where you can for example share recipes, or simply feel good that you found others who like chocolate as much as you do.
