Disney Planes - The Food: Server one

On two 3 tier stairs, I placed the Disney Planes themed food for the adults and children.  The Table was dressed in pale blue with buckets of popcorn, little dippers, the serviettes and plates as seen in the last post.

Plane tyres topped the server...This was our ever popular Gluten Free Macadamia Nut Brownie.  This recipe was featured at our Dinosaur party as the Fossil Slice.  The recipe is on that post and a slightly adapted recipe is as per below...

Gluten Free Chocolate Macadamia Brownie
Ingredients
200+ grams of Dark Chocolate
180g Organic Butter
1/3 cup rice milk
1 cup Gluten Free Self Raising Flour
1/2 cup Almond meal
1 cup Rapadura or brown sugar
1/2 cup Organic Cacao
1+ cup chopped up Organic Macadamia Nuts - the fresher the better
3 Organic eggs lightly beaten
Optional 1/8 to 1/4 tps Gluten Free Baking powder but a must if you only have GF Plain Flour.

Method
Melt Dark chocolate and butter in a double boiler
In a separate bowl add flour, baking powder, sugar, nut meal, cacao and macadamia nuts in a bowl and mix well.
Add to this dry mix, the eggs, milk and then the chocolate mixture.  Fold ingredients together until well combined. 
Pour into greased and lined cake tin/slice tin.
Bake at 140-160oC in fan forced oven for 40 minutes.
Cool and then cut out tyres with cookie cutters

If you use SR flour, it rises quite considerably - if you use Plain flour with the baking powder there is not as much rise (enough though for the tyres above!)
Place the rings in the centre to act as wheel centres...

This was fun but not a food for Ben, in fact a little nibble and his comment was "disgusting" LOL. No recipe here just saveloys and pastry squares cut into four squares.

 Ben helped wrap the little sausages in the pastry and together we made different planes.

Clouds and plane shaped Gluten Free shortbread biscuits and they were a huge hit disappearing before my eyes.  Again the cookie dough was rolled out, put in the freezer for 5 minutes and cut out with my plane cookie cutters purchased from Cakes Around Town at Durack.
