The NEW Recipe Thread

So once upon a time I made a recipe thread, but then people posted fake recipe (ie put water in cup) and that was no fun. So now I am doing this again and you guys should not do that.
This is for y'all to also post real recipes so get on that.
Now, for recipe one:
Fannie Farmer’s Classic Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Ingredients
1 (8 ounce) package macaroni
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
1 cup cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded good quality
1/2 cup breadcrumbs, buttered
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Cook and drain macaroni according to package directions; set aside.
3. In a large saucepan melt butter.
4. Add flour mixed with salt and pepper, using a whisk to stir until well blended.
5. Pour milk and cream in gradually; stirring constantly.
6. Bring to boiling point and boil 2 minutes (stirring constantly).
7. Reduce heat and cook (stirring constantly) 10 minutes.
8. Add shredded cheddar little by little and simmer an additional 5 minutes, or until cheese melts.
9. Turn off flame.
10. Add macaroni to the saucepan and toss to coat with the cheese sauce.
11. Transfer macaroni to a buttered baking dish.
12. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
13. Bake 20 minutes until the top is golden brown.
Notes: this makes a huuuge serving. It's a good recipe, but not very cheesy. I recommend using a medium or sharp cheddar. And for the roux, the time's a little long; you should go by sight. Once it's a thick, off-white color, it should be okay.

7 ounces of coconut milk or 7/8 cup of heavy whipping cream
shrimp frying stuff:
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp black mustard seeds

I haven't made Natillas in a while, I need to make them.
This is the recipe I use from one of our cookbooks.
Natillas
4 eggs, separated
3/4 cups sugar
1/4 cups flour
4 cups milk
1/2 tsp. almond extract (Optional. I don't use it a lot)
1/8 tsp nutmeg
Beat the egg yolks and stir in the sugar and flour. Mix until smooth.
Put milk and yolk mixture in saucepan and cook until it thickens to soft custard consistency.
Remove from heat, add extract and cool.
Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into custard.
I'm not sure since its been a while but I think that vanilla extract tastes good when substituting the almond. But don't quote me on that it's been a while since I've made it.

Awesome friggin popcorn
software:
2-3 cups of unpopped corn
2 tbsp butter (you can add more or less if you want)
salt (not kosher--cue jew joke)
Hardware:
Skillet--aluminum is best
oven (duh)
1. melt butter in skillet over medium heat
2. pour in upoppped corn kernels
3. wait till they pop, don't go anywhere because it may burn, you can add more butter if you want now.
4. once about 70% of the corn is popped, take it out of the skillet and put it all in a bowl. Sprinkle salt on popcorn. You can add some other kind of flavoring, but I prefer it pure.
NOW YOU'VE MADE SOME POPCORN, POPCORN THAT IS INFINITELY BETTER THAN THAT MICROWAVE CRAP.
I might take pics of making this next time I go to my grandmother's house.

Chocolate Cornflake Cake (with pictures!)
Ingredients
Around 3 Easter Eggs (I used Easter Eggs, with normal chocolate probably 2 large bars?)
Cornflakes/Rice Crispies/Frosties (I reccomend Cornflakes)
(pic) (note that is the small bowl in the pic)
Utensils
Wooden Spoon
2 Large Bowls
(does hot water count, if so yes).
Directions
Pour water into one of the bowls, put on the range and heat up untill it is boiling. Whilst it is warming up, break up the pieces of chocolate so it is ready. Once the water has boiled, put another bowl in top, try and make it so it is around the same size/slightly larger. Then, put the pieces of chocolate into the bowl, but not all at once otherwise you may get the bottom burning whilst the top isn't. Once all the chocolate has been melted and stirred, pour in your desired filling, whether that be Cornflakes or whatever. I suggest putting quite a bit in, depending on how hard and crunchy you want the cake to be
(pic)
Now, once it has all been stirred together you can either a) seperate the mixture into small muffin things which takes longer and is more complicated or b) get a smaller bowl, line it with clingfilm and and pour the mixture in,
like so.
Leave it to set in the fridge for about 25 mins, that is if you want the inside to still be a bit gooey. If you want it to be hard all the way through, wait for an extra 5-10 mins. Beware though, I suggest having small portions as it is very dense and will fill you up.

Enjoy!
