Week 72 Recommended Read

Ruthless PeopleJJ. McAvoy

To anyone else they look like royalty, but to those that know them, they are the Boss’s of Chicago’s Underground crime operations.

From Rival families, Liam and Melody are forced to marry against their wishes. Melody knows who her Irish husband-to-be is, and refuses to become anything less that who she is. Liam thinks he’s getting a pretty little housewife, not the head of an Italian Mafia family.

Neither of them is willing to give up their power.

But maybe they do share one thing in common. They’re just as wild inside the bedroom as out of it.

Ruthless People is book one of The Ruthless People Series, which contain 4 books and and after-series based on their children. I read it in a weekend. Go take a look.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour all purpose
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup milk any preference
  • 6 tbsp Dutch processed cocoa any will work, but Dutch processed cocoa is richer and gives a better flavour

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp cocoa
  • 2 tsp butter melted

Pudding layer

  • 1 cup **cold coffee use decaf for a caffeine free version

Instructions

Cake Layer

  • Using whisk, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, cocoa and salt together in bottom of greased baking pan. Add milk and mix until thick dough is formed. Spread out evenly.

Topping

  • Melt butter.
  • Sprinkle brown sugar on top of cake layer, followed by granulated sugar and cocoa, until evenly coated. Pour melted butter over top of sugars.

Pudding

  • Pour cold coffee over top both layers, soaking entirely.
  • Bake in oven for 45 minutes. Cake will be bubbling when done, and pudding will seem runny. It will thicken upon standing.

    Enjoy!
