I saw this recipe for chocolate stout cake and just had to share. I know it's not very rock and roll but I don't care. I'm a home counties white boy so there's no pretending that I'm anything but. I also like it because the site is called The Hungry Mouse. http://www.thehungrymouse.com/2009/10/30/chocolate-stout-layer-cake/

Genius  There's also this version, probably by the Lego Death Star people, which adds an extra bit of fun.

I made chilli today...
500g minced beef 500g minced pork 2 large onions 5 tins tomatoes 6 tins various beans (I use 2 of pinto, 2 of borlotti and 2 of cannelloni) 1 tsp hot chilli powder 1 tsp cayenne pepper 2 tsp paprika 2 tsp ground cumin 1 beef stock cube
Finely chop the onions, then cook them in a large saucepan in a little sunflower oil. Once they've softened add the minced beef and brown it, making sure it gets broken up. Then add the minced pork and brown that, too.
Keeping the pan on the heat, add the tinned tomatoes, and the beans (drain them first!), and stir well. Add the spices, followed by a little water from the kettle, then crumble the stock cube in and stir well again. Bring the pan to the boil, then cover and turn the heat right down so the mixture is simmering gently. Let it do this for three hours (or more, if you can bear it - the smell is amazing), then season to taste and serve with a carb of your choice (rice, bread, baked potato or even chips) topped with soured cream and grated cheese.
This makes a pretty mild chilli - if you like a botty-burner then add more chilli powder and cayenne. You can also use finely chopped, deseeded chilli peppers, and fry them with the onions before adding the meat.
Makes enough for about ten people, and gets better after it's been frozen.

This is a terrible thread that makes me want to go and cause absolute chaos in the kitchen.
