Give me a very good recipe so that I can impress a date


did your manners go on vacation without you?

Remember to brush your teeth and clean under your fingernails. Tell her she looks really pretty. Bring flowers. Call her father "Sir". Give her mother the flowers. Mention to her Mother that you make a really light Hollandaise Sauce. Give her little sister a very small box of chocolates. Promise her father you'll have her home by ten. Keep your promise. Walk her to the door and kiss her goodnight. Call the next day and tell her you'd like to see her again soon. Don't lie.

That oughta do it.

Guess you don't have much else going for you. Sorry, but cream cheese frosting will not change your bad manners.

I doubt this is going to be enough to impress your date. Here is what I use:

- 100 g unsalted butter, softened

- 385 g good-quality full-fat cream cheese

- 680 g icing sugar

- 2 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract

1) Beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth. 2) Sift the icing sugar over top and stir in. 3) Stir in the vanilla extract.

Wow. A "please" would have been nice, yes, but ouch. I chalked it up to his/her (I'm not assuming either, nor am I assuming orientation. :-) being so excited (and, perhaps, youthful and in a hurry) about said date s/he momentarily forgot said manners.
