M I S S I S S I P P I M U D P I E It's a Mississippi Mud Pie
and you've told us how we can make it incredible
and here is how we're gonna make it M A K E I T
I almost got that bit wrong but got Mississippi right, crazy
Our Mississippi Mud Pie has 4 layers and we're gonna begin with the bottom one
which is a biscuit crumb, blitz up Oreo biscuits and then add your melted butter
and then we're gonna press that into the bottom of a loose bottomed tin
J: spell it B: T I N J: I T, it
The second layer of our mud pie is going to be a flourless sponge
first of all, we need to whip up some eggs in a mixer
along with some sugar until it's about tripled in size
and in the meantime we're gonna melt some butter and some chocolate over a pan
of simmering water
B: Look at that J: Puffy B: Puffy
and you kinda know its ready when with the whisk you can draw a figure of 8 and it holds it's form
J: Or you could draw a Sorted S
Next up were gonna mix our liquids that's double cream, with cold strong coffee
cause you guys said that you shouldn't taste the coffee but the coffee just gives it that rich bitterness
that is needed J: Depth of flavour B: A drop of vanilla
And this is where you need to have a bit of faith
because there's no flour in this cake which is the bit that normally keeps it all together
so cocoa's going in and then all of that liquid goes into our cake batter J: Ok
B: Which feels like it's too much J: Yes B: Trust us J: Ok
And then keeping as much air in as possible, work it together
Once your sponge mixture is all combined and folded through,
pour it into your tin over the top of your base and then you're going to put it into the oven at 180 Degrees
for 30 to 35 minutes until the sponge is nicely set
whilst our cake is in the oven baking, and then we need about 25-30 minutes of cooling time
we can make the next layer which is chocolate pudding J: Chocolate pudding
Milk, chocolate, cornflour and cocoa powder, honey and a little bit of coffee lacquer
all in a pan and heat it up gently until it all melts and combines and thickens
if you want all the weights and measurements, head to Sorted Food
J: S O R T E D F O O D .com
the next step on our mud pie is to combine our pudding, which has cooled slightly,
and our cake which has come out of the oven and cooled slightly
and what happens, cause it's flourless is it kinda dips a little bit in the middle
Perfect, cause that's where this is going
Once you've got this smooth and level, stick it in the fridge for several hours until the whole thing
has set up, then we can do the final layer.
Once your M I double S i double S I double P I Mud Pie
has come out of the fridge and has all cooled down,
it's time to talk about our final top layer
now we could have just gone for whipped cream, but we've listened to you,
and you said "don't just go for whipped cream go for caramel whipped cream"
Do we know where Mud Pie actually comes from, don't look at me like that
(talking over each other) B: Obviously the state of B: I know it comes from Mississippi
B: to replicate the kind of quagmire of a swampy Mississippi banks of the river kind of ...
J: Do you find much chocolate in those swamps?
B: I remember looking up the origins of this dish and forgetting all about them
so if you know, let us know. I mean that would be great
That right there is a four layerd epic Mississippi Mud Pie
(both) S O R T E D, Sorted
B: how did know you were gonna do that? J: we didn't even talk about it that's amazing
As you can tell we found it really hard to find anybody who wanted to come and eat this Mississippi Mud Pie
Dig In
B: Do you ever find that sometimes Oreos are better as a crumb than they are as a biscuit?
I think we've definitly got the best deal there, the whole pie B: you've done well
needless to say if you wanna make your mates go ooh aah and yum,
then you need to give this recipe a go, before he guzzles all the food
J: I have to say R E S P E C T suck it to me, this is great
