    Couple days back, we all (mom, two sisters, myself & maha) went to our favorite vegetarian restaurant Arya Bhavan for dinner. We ordered chilli parota, paneer pulav, chilli gobi, chinese noodles & paper roast. It was all delcious and finally we came to my favorite part of the meal "DESERT". My sister ordered cassata icecream and i went for a butterscotch milkshake. My sister got her icecream first, and i got the spoon from her and had a bite straight away and it was so yummy. I called the waiter and cancelled my milkshake and ordered cassata. YES I DID!

     
    After waiting for few minutes, the waiter came back and told that cassata got over. You know how sad i felt. Then finally when we reached home i was thinking all about cassata the whole night. Then early in the morning i got dream of myself making cassata at home, I know i know you think i am crazy. YES i am..This is my reality. I am sure many go through this. When i woke up, i decided to bring my dream to a real. I asked hubby to get all the ingredients and got into action. And the result was amazing, i had not one but 3 of those big slices. Yum Yum.
     
    If you are wondering what i had for desert in that restaurant..I called the waiter back and ordered the same butterscotch milkshake..You get that i can never miss deserts in my life..HE HE..

    How to Make Cassata Ice Cream

    1. Start by making simple syrup. Take sugar and water and a sauce pan, heat it to dissolve the sugar. Allow it to cool down. Syrup done..
    2. Take a 1 liter bowl which is big enough to hold all the icecreams and cakes.
    3. Line it generously with vanilla cake. Break small pieces of cake and fill all the gaps.
    4. Now wet the cake with the simple syrup generously.
    5. Now take the icecream one by one in a bowl and cream it well.
    6. Spread the icecream one by one over the cakes above each one.
    7. Once all is one, sprinkle the top generously with chopped nuts.
    8. Now cover the whole bowl with cling wrap and put in the freezer overnight.
    9. When it is all set and frozen, invert it over the plate and remove the plastic wrap/
    10. Slice and serve immediately.
