Yesssss. The piece of cake you see above, was home-made. I conjured this tasty concoction of cookies, milk, and gelatin. It was easy. It was fast and it made my lover (my husband, Super Man), love me a lot more than on any other regular dessert night. For the "berry" on top, I just sliced a small strawberry in half and...poof!...There it was, a sexy little piece of cookie cake.
And if you want to make the experience of making (notice I said 'making' not 'baking') this heavenly pastry a lot more interesting, have yourself a glass of Riesling, white grape wine from Germany (usually very affordable) and place it in a martini glass like our enchantress, the beautiful brunette pictured above. Have fun!
Ingredients:
16 - 18 Cinnamon graham cracker squares, divided
2 small envelopes unflavored gelatin (about 7g each)
2 1/2 Cups Milk (I recommend Organic Lactaid)
1 Can Sweetened Condensed Milk
2 Large eggs
2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
LAYER half of graham crackers onto bottom of 8-in. square baking pan
WHISK gelatin and milk in medium saucepan
STIR in sweetened condensed milk, eggs, and cornstarch.
Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly for 1 minute or until thickened.
Remove from heat, stir in Vanilla.
SPOON some of the mixture over crackers in pan. Top with crackers; Cover with remaining mixture and repeat until you reach desired layers.
Garnish with strawberry and if you have it, chocolate syrup!
