Top tip! If you are cack-handed like me, use an extra bowl for separating the egg whites, so if you do accidentally manage to throw the yolk in, you haven't wasted more eggs than you need to.
Your recipes are great and taste much better than shop brought rubbish. They are cheap because you leave out all the chemicals and of course the 85% mark up. Keep it up.
Another sucessful recipe, all I can say is keep them coming they are much appreciated. On the worry about raw eggs, by mixing the whisked egg whites into the hot melted chocolate it cooks the egg enough to be deemed safe to eat. Its the same principle when making meringues with hot sugar syrup. Also in the UK eggs that are safe to eat raw or runny have the BRITISH LION MARK stamped on the shell. There are stringent health and safety checks in place to ensure the eggs are safe to eat.
This man is just a genius, 🎉 your recipes are tasty simple and of course your specialitys are good food at low cost budgeting, of which we all need right now, keep em coming. Thank you.
I keep wondering how you don't get fat trying out your recipes but now I realize no crappy e numbers no artificial colouring no preservatives just good honest ingredients and very few of them I thank you for showing what REAL for should taste like
Yes, I know what is in my food and it makes a lot of difference......I only ever eat food which I have prepared from scratch....and I also do a lot of manual work and try to get a good 5 mile walk in each day....so all of that works the cakes off. Thanks.
This looks delicious and worthy of a dessert to share with friends after a meal without looking budget! Will the next Baking on a Budget show us what to do with the 4 egg yolks?!
I mentioned in the video that the egg yokes will make a pouring custard.....video coming soon.....hope you give the mousse a try it was delicious. Thanks for watching
Have you thought about writing a book and i think you are amazing to show people how much food can be made for such little money.....keep the delicious recipes coming 👍🥐🥪
🎉.... Thank you so much for sharing. One can be quite creative with this one. I would try a orange flavored chocolate with a ginger cookie base. Salter Caramel, Chili etc will also be exciting and you could experiment with other cookies alos.
This is another wonderful recipe that is not only is inexpensive but far more healthy than the versions with cream. For those freaking out over raw eggs, used pasteurized eggs.
I enjoy your videos a lot. I don't live in the uk, so i don't know if you have them, but where I live we have those biscuits unfilled (we get them in chocolate and plain flavour).
So glad I subscribed a couple of days ago - this video just popped up and, what do you know, I have all the ingredients in the cupboard so I’ll be making it this afternoon. Thanks again for the wonderful videos.
I'll definitely give this a go. I make something similar as an Aussie I use Tim Tam biscuits as a base with melted butter. With The filling I like to make a hot chocolate (milk and cocoa powder) however to solidify it I use a lot of marshmallows which I melt into the hot chocolate mixture which I then pour over the biscuit base and then I refrigerate it over night. The marshmallow act as the gelatine and they are easy to use...... its delicious. I hope you don't mind me sharing my version. I will definite try your recipe though.
Yet again a lovely delicious recipe. Who doesn’t like chocolate! 😊 I made the Victoria sponge twice now for my boys pack lunches for work. Both times yummy! Thanks again. Their gran ( my mum) use to make a chocolate/ vanilla swirl cake! Again any chance sometime to give us a recipe?! 😊👍 keep posting the vids please.
In the interest of also budgeting calories, I omitted the crust which reduced each portion to 134 calories. Perhaps I was timid with the folding because there were specs of unincorporated chocolate but even so it was shockingly delicious! This mousse is accessible and forgiving. Tomorrow we will make pasta from the leftover egg yolks.
Great recipe but a moment of ohhhh drat for southern New Zealanders, we don't have bourbon biscuits 😬 however it looks like a cold cheesecake butter base so we do have a kiwi alternative which is either Griffin's wine biscuits (don't ask me why they're called wine biscuits you wouldn't want them with wine) 😂 or good old Griffin's Krispies ( coconut flavored white biscuit) which is what I use for cheesecake base. I did have a thought about the creme you scraped off though, you could incorporate it into a milk cream chocolate ganache for a topping, but it would be pretty sweet even if you use bitter dark chocolate. Anyway great recipe and yes I'm up at some rediculous hour watching this again 😂
Looks delicious, I’m curious does the melted chocolate cook the whipped egg whites as you stir them in? It looks really great but I’m wondering about the egg whites being raw?
Right on time!!! What's a 'Universal' equivalent of Bourbon biscuits, please? What about those cookies is essential for the mousse? I don't think I've seen those where I live. I read online that Oreo cookies by Nabisco might be a close substitute. I need to find a simple, chocolate cookie with no coating or cream. Okay!
A bourbon biscuit is a crisp biscuit with added cocoa powder. It is then sandwiched together with chocolate butter ream which was removed for this recipe. An oreo is similar.
@@BakingOnABudgetI've just made it this afternoon and had a slice for tea. It's as good as any shop bought stuff (even though I say so myself lol). Made the fruit scones too. Lovely! Keep them coming! Very simple and easy to follow.
🇿🇦 Just a bit of useless information, here in South Africa... our chocolate manufacture Cadbury /Mondelez Int, kept the price the same... but our slabs are down from 100g to 80g. Our large 200g is down to 150g. The packaging looks the same, but the slab is thiner. All cook book recipes still calls 100g of chocolate 🙄
You need to use a rubber Spatula to remove all that delicious mousse out of the bowl. I wouldn't waste any thing. How do you manager to bake or cook on prices like these? Here in North America, we spend an arm and a leg to make anything. I think I should move back to England. How I miss London.
Your right I should have used the spatula, I thought prices in the UK were high but a few people have told me that the USA is a lot more expensive.....still cheaper than shop bought hopefully.
