Makes about 2 dozen miniature tarts.

9 oz pie crust pastry (enough for two single standard pie crusts)
approximately 11 tablespoons black treacle (can use golden syrup if desired)
1 heaping teaspoon ground ginger, optional
4 oz unseasoned breadcrumbs

After greasing the pan first, line each cup of a miniature muffin baking pan with the pastry, rolled as thin as possible. Warm the treacle in a saucepan. Add the ginger and stir in the breadcrumbs. Spoon the breadcrumb mixture into each pastry cup only about 2/3rds full. Bake for 15-20 minutes, watching closely so the crust edges do not burn.

"HAVE A BISCUIT, POTTER!"

"You told her He Who Must Not Be Named is back?"
"Yes."
Professor McGonagall sat down behind her desk, frowning at Harry. Then she said: "Have a biscuit,Potter."
"Have - what?"
"Have a biscuit", she repeated impatiently, indicating a tartan tin lying on top of one of the piles of papers on her desk. "And sit down"
There had been a previous occasion when Harry, expecting to be caned by Professor McGonagall, had instead been appointed by her to the Gryffindor Quidditch team. He sank into a chair opposite her and helped himself to a Ginger Newt, feeling just as confused and...

kumquats
blueberries
mango
kiwi
pineapple
papaya
strawberries
plums
grapes

Choose the fruit you like (tropical is excellent - the more unique the better - this is Herbology you know!) and that lend themselves to party-sized portions. Arrange it all artistically on unique garnish, or have your house-elf Leezy (Thanks, Lisa!) arrange it for you. Set up in your Herbology classroom amongst real and artificial plants and enjoy!

Looks really good! Hope you enjoy it because it is the twist on regular fruit salad.
small Brie cheese round
packaged puff pastry sheet

Wrap the pastry sheet around a small round of Brie cheese, sealing the raw edges together underneath. Brush with milk for nice browning. Place on greased foil on a cookie sheet and bake in the over at 400F for 15 minutes, or until crust is golden brown. Serve with a spreader and your preferred assortment of crackers.

I decided to use my pastry scraps to make the Hogwarts shield with the H on top of my Brie. Everyone liked the shield so much, they ate AROUND it and left it there alone on the plate! haha...

You can add to the layer between the pastry and the Brie if you like. My favorite is apricot preserves with dried cranberries, but the cranberries make it lumpy, so that could mar your design, which is why I left this one plain.

dark chocolate
dry chow mein noodles

Melt your chocolate until smooth. Stir in noodles until the mixture is thick enough to hold together. Spoon bite-sized clusters onto wax paper and let harden in the refrigerator. If you want longer-lasting candy, melt 1 stick cooking paraffin per 12 oz of chocolate before adding the noodles. These can be frozen, just thaw before serving.


These are really good or at least i would geuss so because my Grandma would always make them but instead of chocolate they had butterscotch and they were really really good so if you wanna try that instead even though these would be good you can because they are still clustered and you can imagine them to be cockroachs just in a different color!

Makes about 3 dozen from a standard cake mix.

Your favorite devils food cake recipe, made into cupcakes
black string licorice

Bake your cupcakes according to the instructions, without using paper cup liners. Slice off the top of the crown of each cupcake so that when it is turned upside down, it sits flat. This gives you more of a cauldron shape than a cupcake shape. Cut the black string licorice into small pieces and poke them into the cupcakes as cauldron handles.


These look so good to make kind of like cupcakes you can if you want to choose to not use the licorice, i know my family doesnt like it except for my dad.............You could probably also use whatever cake mix you like. Happy Baking!

I've seen a billion ways that you can do this, but my favorite ways are the ones I've come up with on my own.

In the picture: The darker quill is a real bird feather (a vulture I think.) The white one is a craft feather and ribbon.

You can make a pen out of either a real feather or the fake costume feathers you can buy at any craft store, or wal-mart.

A Blancmange is a European dessert traditionally made with a gelatin based thickener. In the Harry Potter series, this dessert is seen in Goblet of Fire during the Triwizard feast. It might have also been made by Fleur Delacour while the trio were staying at Shell Cottage in Deathly Hallows.




This recipe has a little twist to the traditional recipe. This recipe gives a combination of Blancmange with a Creme Brulee recipe, hence the name Blancmange Brulee. It is a much denser custard with a hint of almond flavoring, and a carmelized sugar topping.



Cooking Time: 5 hours

Level Difficulty: Moderate...
