Snickerdoodle Crème Brûlée, Best Holiday Dessert Recipes

Snickerdoodle Crème Brûlée, Best Holiday Dessert Recipes

November 20, 2019

The Best Holiday Dessert Recipes, yumm and icy, a good combination of taste with temperature. Now just try this recipe at home alright.

Ingredients

2 cups heavy cream

1/2 cup granulated sugar

3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for sprinkling over the tops (preferably Saigon or Vietnamese Cinnamon)

5 large egg yolks

Dash salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 tablespoons superfine sugar (or raw sugar or granulated sugar)

Steps to Make It

Combine the heavy cream, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 3/4 teaspoon of cinnamon in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat.  Cook, stirring until the mixture just begins to simmer. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool for about 15 to 20 minutes.

Heat the oven to 325 F.

In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the salt. Gradually whisk the cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Whisk in the vanilla extract and then divide the custard among the 6 ramekins. 

Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Carefully add the water to the outer pan holding the ramekins to a depth of about halfway up the sides of the ramekins.

Bake the creme brulee for 30 to 35 minutes, or until there is only slight jiggle in the centers of the custards.

Remove the ramekins to a rack to cool. 

Discard the water in the outer pan and place the ramekins back in the pan. Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until they are completely chilled.

Just before serving time, put about 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of raw sugar, superfine sugar, or granulated sugar on a serving of creme brulee. Gently move the ramekin on the countertop in a circular motion to distribute the sugar evenly. 

Slowly move a blowtorch or small kitchen torch back and forth over the creme brulee, caramelizing a section at a time. Using a pot holder or oven mitt, — the ramekins will be hot — turn the ramekins and continue caramelizing the tops until all of the sugar is melted and the top is browned. Repeat with as many custards as you plan to serve. The caramelized sugar should harden within about 2 to 3 minutes.

Alternatively, the creme brulees may be browned under the broiler. Add the sugar to the tops and place them under a heated broiler just until the sugar has caramelized. Watch them carefully and rotate the pan with the creme brulees about halfway through.

Sprinkle the caramelized tops lightly with a pinch of cinnamon fot the Holiday Dessert Recipes to be complete.

Christmas Casseroles, One of the Best Holiday Recipes

November 13, 2019

This Best Holiday Recipes is updated with deep flavored cheddar and a crunchy topping of crumbled crackers and toasted almonds.

Ingredients

• 3 pounds broccoli, cut into small florets, stems peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch coins
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 leeks, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
• Kosher salt
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 cups whole milk
• 6 ounces sharp white cheddar cheese, shredded (2 cups)
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• Freshly ground pepper
• 1/2 cup coarsely crushed saltine crackers
• 1/2 cup sliced almonds
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

How to Make This Best Holiday Recipes

Step 1    
Preheat the oven to 400°. Set a steamer basket in a large, deep saucepan filled with 1 inch of water and bring to a boil. Add all of the broccoli, cover and cook over high heat until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer the broccoli to a paper towel–lined baking sheet to drain.

Step 2   
In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil. Add the leeks and a generous pinch of salt and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 10 minutes. Add the flour and whisk over moderately high heat until bubbling and a paste forms, about 2 minutes. Add the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened and bubbling, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the cheddar and cayenne. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3   
Pour half of the cheese sauce into a large 2-inch-deep baking dish. Arrange the drained broccoli on top of the cheese sauce in a single layer and drizzle the remaining cheese sauce on top. In a small bowl, mix the crackers with the almonds and melted butter and sprinkle over the broccoli. Bake the casserole for 15 minutes, until the sauce is bubbling and the top is golden brown.

Root christmas veggie dishes with candied nuts & blue cheese

Root christmas veggie dishes with candied nuts & blue cheese

November 10, 2019

Make this christmas veggie dishes tatin with nuts and cheese as a Christmas showstopper. Perfect for a veggie family, it also makes a great Boxing Day buffet centrepiece

Ingredients

500g block puff pastry

3 slim carrots, about 12-13 cm long, halved lengthways

3 slim parsnips about 12-13 cm long, halved lengthways plus 1 large parsnip, peeled and grated

2 tbsp olive oil

2 heaped tbsp slightly salted butter

5 banana shallots, 3 halved lengthways, 2 thinly sliced

small bunch sage, leaves picked and finely chopped

4 rosemary sprigs, leaves picked and finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, finely grated or crushed

100g caster sugar

125ml red wine vinegar

100g blue cheese, crumbled (we used Cropwell Bishop)

For the candied nuts

50g walnuts, roughly chopped

25g caster sugar

2 tsp butter

3 rosemary sprigs

Method

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roll out the pastry to just larger than a 30cm diameter ovenproof frying pan and use the pan as a template to cut out a round of pastry. Leave in the fridge, or a cool place while you prepare everything else.

Bring a pan of water to the boil, add the carrots and parsnips and cook for 5 mins. Drain and set aside to dry off slightly. Heat the oil and 1 tbsp of the butter in your pan and cook the sliced shallots and grated parsnips for 1-2 mins over a medium-high heat until just starting to brown, then add a good splash of water to the pan, stir to scrape up any brown bits, turn the heat down slightly, cover and cook for 4-5 mins, stirring every so often. The parsnips should be tender. Add the herbs and garlic and cook for another minute, then tip into a bowl, scraping out as well as you can. Season a little and set aside.

Add the sugar and vinegar to the pan and bring to the boil. Cook for a few minutes until syrupy, then stir in the remaining butter. Set aside to cool slightly, then arrange the vegetables in the pan, fanning them out. Top with the herby shallot and parsnip mixture, pushing it into any spaces there may be. Lay the pastry over the top of the vegetables and push in the edges a little. Place in the oven and bake for 30-35 mins until puffed and deep golden brown. 

While the tart bakes, put the nuts, sugar and butter in a small frying pan with a pinch of salt. Cook over a medium-high heat for about 5 mins, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved and coated the nuts. Add the rosemary for the last minute. Tip out onto a piece of baking parchment and leave to cool for a few minutes.

Once the tart is baked for christmas veggie dishes, remove from the oven and carefully turn out onto a serving board. Scrape out any bits that are left in the tin and add back to the tart. Bash the nuts to break them up and scatter over, along with the crumbled cheese.
