COOKING MAMA CHOCOLATE CORNETS - NERDY NUMMIES

Hey guys, its Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy Nummies! Lately, Ive been playing a lot of Cooking
Mama 4 on my Nintendo 3DS. And, I love this game! And Im so excited because Cooking Mama
5 - Bon Appetite, is coming out. So I thought, in honor of the game coming out, lets make
a treat from the game. Today we are going making Chocolate Cornets, which are a Japanese
pastry.

They kind of remind me of chocolate croissants, theyre a little bit
similar. And were gonna have a very special guest come visit us today at the end of the
show, so, lets get started! The things you will need for the pastry bread
will be: 1 big mixing bowl, a spatula, 3/4 cup of milk, 1 cup of flour, and then
another 1/2 a cup of flower because were gonna add them separately. Youll also need: 4
tablespoons of sugar, 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 and 1/4 teaspoons of yeast, 1/2 a teaspoon
of salt and some aluminum foil. The ingredients youll need for the mousse
filling will be: 1 cup of regular milk, 1 and 1/3 tablespoons of corn starch, youre
gonna need 2 eggs, but were just gonna be using the yolks, so, 2 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon
of cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons of butter, 2 and 1/2 tablespoons of regular sugar, and
1 tablespoon of flour.

Lets put it all together! The first thing youre gonna do is microwave
your milk for 2 and 1/2 minutes on high, and then add it to your big mixing bowl. Oooooh! And then youre gonna add your sugar, and
the butter. Then youre gonna mix everything together
until your butter is melted. Now were gonna add the 1 cup of flour, to the liquid mixture,
here we go.

And youre gonna keep mixing, mixing it together and then let it sit for
a few minutes because you dont want your batter to be too hot when we add the yeast,
you just want it to be warm, not hot. Now were gonna add your yeast, salt and
the rest of the flour, and mix it all together. Now were gonna knead the dough for about
10 minutes with flour until its nice and smooth and stretchy! So youre just gonna take
a little bit of flour, put it on top of your surface. Oh its nice and sticky! Plop
it down right in the middle, look at that! Sticky, sticky.

Work the flour in, and were
gonna knead it until its not sticky anymore. Once your dough is this kind of consistency,
it doesnt stick to your hands anymore and its stretchy. Youre just gonna put it
in a bowl, like this, and then youre gonna take some saran wrap and cover it. And youre
gonna let it sit for 1 hour, for the yeast to rise.

After an hour your dough should look like
this, look at that! It fluffed up so much! Now youre gonna take off the saran wrap,
take it out of the bowl, and now youre gonna divide it into 8 balls. So what I like
to do is first divide it in half, just eyeball it, and then half again, and then half again. Once youve got your dough into 8 little
balls, you can re-use your saran wrap and youre just going to cover them for another 10 minutes. Now youre gonna take 8 sheets of aluminum
foil, theyre each about 15 inches long and were gonna do a little Origami! Its almost
like origami, its pretty fun.

The first thing youre gonna do is fold
this in half, and then youre gonna fold the bottom up to here to be a triangle. Then,
this top part youre just gonna fold it down, and with this little excess youre gonna
tuck it under. Then youre gonna fold it in half again to be a smaller triangle, and one more
time. Now youve got your little triangle, and this corner is going to be the bottom
and youre just going to roll it over, starting from this side, over to this side.
Then youre gonna do that to the rest of these, youre gonna need to make 8 total.

Now were ready to make the pastry cornet!
Are you ready? This is the fun part! Youre gonna take off the saran wrap and
then youre gonna take your little aluminum middles, and youre gonna spray em a little bit. Oh Eeeeeee!!! Yeargh Is this for real?? Just give it a little spray, boop! Now youre gonna take one of your little
bread balls, and youre gonna roll it out. Look at that, nice and stretchy! Wee-wee!
Its like jump rope! Once you got your dough rolled out like this,
what youre gonna do, is take your little center piece, and youre gonna
start at the tip, at the bottom. And then youre just gonna roll all the way up, and youll
want it to have 5 creases.

So there we've got 2, and now weve got 3, and now weve
got 4, and 5! Perfect! Then youre just gonna do that to the rest
of the rolls. I love this part, its pretty fun! Weeeeeeee, oh!!!! Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmmm! Once youve got your cornets rolled, youre
gonna preheat your oven to 350 and were gonna bake these for 15 minutes until
theyre golden brown. While the cornets or cornets, Im not quite
sure how to say it, are baking, were gonna be making the chocolate mousse filling. Yum yum
yum! So the first thing that youre gonna do
is take your 2 egg yolks and add them to a big mixing bowl.

And then youre gonna add in
your sugar. Take a whisk and then mix it all together.
Now youre gonna boil your milk, and then once its boiled youre going to slowly add
it to your egg-sugar mixture so that it wont cook the egg. And now were gonna add our
dry ingredients, were gonna add flour, cocoa powder, and some corn starch. Mix it
up, once youve mixed in all the dry ingredients, then youre gonna slowly add the rest of
the milk, I like to do it by spoonful.

Spoon, and mix! Now youre gonna take your
chocolate mixture and youre gonna pour it back into your pan. Now were gonna take this
over to the stove and were gonna stir it on a medium heat until you have a thick, pudding
consistency. Once youve made your chocolate mousse,
were going to let it chill, let it cool down in a very cool way. Let me show you what to do, Im just using
a spatula to scrape the chocolate mousse into a little bowl, and then were gonna stick
it into a larger bowl of ice water, just to chill.

After youve let the chocolate mousse chill
for just a little bit, now we are going to assemble our pastries, Im so excited! So
youre gonna take your chocolate mousse, and Ive got a plastic little bag here. And I just
put it inside of a cup so it would be easy, and youre gonna put it inside the bag.
Oooooh, scoop it in there. Now youre gonna tie the top of your bag,
Im using a little elastic tie, sometimes I use hair things, whatever I have. And now were
gonna take out the aluminum foil in the middle.

So what youre gonna do is just pick one
of these little guys up, and just give a little twist, and there you go. Hes like, fill me with chocolate! Yum yum
yum yum yum! Take all of these out, you dont want to
eat these. Now the fun part, we are going to fill our
pastries with yummy chocolate. So, youre gonna take your chocolate mousse,
pick one of these guys up and just fill it up! Then youre gonna do this to the rest of
your pastries.
