Old school puddings. Chocolate concrete and pink custard

The nostalgia started last week when I was sat outside of Josephs classroom which is right next to the cafeteria, we was waiting at a parents evening when I smelt it... there I was minding my own business and bamm! I was taken back to 1990, sat in the dinner hall with my Michael Jackson hair and my oversized school cardigan sat opposite my best friend eating his own snot.

I was eating Chocolate concrete and pink custard for school pudding!!

I asked the hubby if he'd had the same flash back...

"what's chocolate concrete?"

WHAT!!??

I knew then I HAD to make him some, he had to try it, how could he have already gone through nearly 31 years of his life without trying it!?

So this weekend I started on my blog series "old school puddings" and the one to kick it off has to be chocolate concrete and pink custard!

Here goes.

All you need to make this is 5 Ingredients.

160g butter
175g sugar
225g self raising flour
1 egg
25g Co-co powder

First pre heat your oven to…

Old school puddings. Cornflake tart.

Hey guys, last weeks school pudding which was chocolate concrete with pink custard was a huge hit, you can read that here if you missed it.

I decided to do cornflake tart this week and it didn't disappoint! The kids loved it and it tasted just like the one I used to devour in primary school! Its a simple recipe and great to make with the kiddies.

First you need to make the pastry.
you will need - Grease proof paper, a pastry dish and Some pastry beads.
You will also need - 8oz plain flour, 4oz butter, 3oz sugar and 1 egg.

Mix the butter and sugar together and then work in the flour and then add the egg. Need together and then place in a fridge for 15 minutes.

(you can also make this with the packet pastry or the ready roll if you didn't want to make your own.)

Take it out from the fridge, place onto a floured surface and roll the pastry out. Grease proof your dish and place the pastry into the dish and then add the pastry beads and bake for 10 minutes on gas mark 3 170C.

To snip or not to snip.

This week the Hubs went to the doctors about having "the snip" aka vasectomy.

I had a pretty horrific birth with my first child and suffered horrendous hyperemesis Gravidarum with my second pregnancy. I was sick anywhere from 10-20 times a day...everyday....Eurgh. I hated everything about my second pregnancy and at times I just couldn't see how I was going to get through it! My boy needed his mummy but I was either asleep on the sofa or I was in the bathroom with my head down the loo!

Whilst still pregnant I said I wasn't doing it all again and that it would definitely be my last pregnancy. "Its just morning sickness" said some people. Its not and I have never had the urge to punch so many people in the face!

So after both agreeing that we didn't want anymore children I asked my consultant if they could sterilize me whilst I was having a section, (well after it obviously) I would be there on the table and it would all be on show to them so what better…
