I have always wanted to make homemade food. Sometimes I used to check store bought food and read the ingredients and wish I could make the same. But am not familiar with some of the ingredients and don't know where to get them. Sometimes when I came across a food even if a recipe is not attached to it I look at the picture and create my own recipe and it's true sometimes a picture speak for the recipe. I mean you can create your recipe by just looking at the picture that is if you are creative. There is creativity in food and everything. And one must have initiative too. So, I attempted to make this Bournvita. I have so much hope in my self and to my greatest surprise it turned out well. I was so happy.
  Pls feel free to make your own and share the picture with me. I will share it in my blog here. Thank you.

  Ingredients:
1 1/2 (250 ml measuring cup) cups cocoa powder
1 cup icing sugar
2 tbsp powdered milk flavour
1 cup powdered milk
1 egg

 Method
In a medium bowl, mix the cocoa powder and icing sugar till well mixed. I used my wooden spoon to mix it.
 Add the powdered milk and the powdered milk flavour, stir well too. Lastly, break the egg and remove the egg white separately and pour the egg white in the bowl of the ingredients. Stir well all together. To mix well; you can use your hands but you have to wash your hands first. Mix well. It will resemble crumbs because of the the egg white that was added. Pour the Bournvita mixture in a baking tray and place it in a preheated oven for 15 minutes on a moderate heat. Stir twice in the oven with a wooden spoon so that it will bake well.
  NB: The reason for baking the Bournvita in the oven is to make it dry because of the egg white that was used. And that will make the Bournvita to last longer.
  Bring the Bournvita out of the oven allow to cool. Your Bournvita is ready! Enjoy your tea.
