This Dessert:
Terumas HaDeshen
There were four piles of ash on the mizbeach and every day a kohen would remove one shovelful and place it to the side of the mizbeach where it would miraculously sink into the floor.
What you need:
Ingredients
4 chocolate cupcakes
½ cup chocolate frosting
½ cup vanilla frosting
2 chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreo)
2 vanilla sandwich cookies (like Oreo)
Things
Small bowl
Piping bag with a star tip
Food processor
Small square platter
How to make it:
In a small bowl mix the chocolate frosting with the vanilla frosting, a little bit at a time, until it makes an ash gray color.
Fill the piping bag with the gray frosting.
Starting from the edge of each cupcake, pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes in a swirl.
Remove the cream from the cookies.
Break the cookies into the bowl of a food processor fitted with an s-blade.
Pulse the chocolate and vanilla cookies together to make cookie crumbs.
Sprinkle crumbs on top of the cupcakes to cover as much of it as possible.
Arrange on a square platter with one cupcake in each corner.
