How To Make Tim Tams/Penguins | MY VIRGIN KITCHEN


howdy foodtube is Barry here from my
virgin kitchen now if you’re straining
you probably refer to what we’re making
today as Tim Tams or if you’re British
like myself you might call them penguins
but whatever you want to call them they
taste amazing and there’s nothing better
than making your own from home because
you can make him any size you want
good times
they look amazing right and it’s a
proper chocolate fest going on chocolate
cream which between two chocolate
biscuits with chocolate over the top
wanna have a go at making this hit pause
on the video now write all these things
down let’s do it so easy so much fun
well let’s do it so we’ll start off with
our cream filling first in a bowl beat
together your butter your cocoa powder
your Horlicks which is malted powder
mixed with a little bit of icing sugar
get it all nice and combined then add a
little bit of milk and melted chocolate
for flavoring and nice good stuff like
that and then we gotta do is whack it in
the fridge while we make our biscuits
okay so we’ll make our biscuits program
on another Bowl and creaming together
the butter and our sugar until it’s nice
and smooth then following up with our
plain flour cocoa powder a little bit of
baking powder some milk and golden syrup
now at first it won’t come together so
you gonna want to mix it together with a
spatula and eventually it will you might
want to add a little bit of milk to help
it along its way but do not flood it
wherever you do want its mixture kind of
dry once you’ve got it there slam it
down on a chopping board with some
baking parchment underneath but some
extra baking parchment on top and start
to roll it out nice and thin so now
comes the real benefit to why we make
these from home you can make them any
size you want
make sure your rectangles are even then
shove it still on that baking parchment
underneath in the oven for a good 10
minutes once it’s baked it might still
be a little soft let it cool down fully
on a wire rack it will firm up and it’s
time to smear it together yeah yeah so
once your biscuits have cooled down what
you wanna do is grab your filling from
the fridge take one biscuit half and
spread it nice and thick and evenly sit
another half on top press it down you
can use your finger if you want to work
around get it all nice and neat put that
back in the fridge while I melt our
chocolate just to say if you’re enjoying
this video don’t forget to give it a
thumbs up share subscribe to both my
virgin kitchen and jamie oliver’s
foodtube channel Cheers let’s finish
this off so all I did to melt the
chocolate was kind of giant food style
adding the saucepan of simmering water
melting the chocolate in a bowl above it
was looking so good I wanted to just
motorboat it again like that wanted to
motivate the chocolate but what you want
to do then is grab one of your chilled
and just dunk the base kind of thing
like a rapper would say dunk the base
just put that in there and sit it on a
wire rack when it’s time for the money
shot yep this really is the money shot
so while you watch this bit let me sing
to you My Mind’s telling me no but my
body
please tell me yes oh my gosh does that
look good so with that chocolate all
coated on there it’s working right
around the grooves penguin slash timtam
style get it in the fridge to firm up
and it’s time to eat it so just before
you say I want to show you this is a
size of my phone and this is the big one
we made it’s actually bigger than my
phone with the cover on it and the cool
thing again about making homemade is you
can customize it in any way you like my
friend Jenny Gordon from Australia is
sending me some salted caramel Tim Tam
so make you sort with caramel filling
maybe marshmallow fluff let me know down
below what you’d put in it there’s
something called a Tim Tam slam that on
a trout right now we’re gonna get in
time to work okay so in autumn town slam
you bite off both ends a Tim Tam suck it
for the straw now the big one is too big
for this mug so we’ll do a Tim Tam twerk
with a mini one a full dunk in there
okay so that’s work oh yeah I’m sort of
twerking you don’t have to see all that
we’re gonna dunk it in there oh my
goodness whole coffee being soaked right
in there ah-ah-ah spirit of Kylie
