CINNAMON ROLLS

Ingredients:
2 and 3/4 cups (345g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 and 1/4 teaspoons Red Star Platinum Yeast or any instant yeast (1 packet)
1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk
1/4 cup (60ml) water
3 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large egg
 

Filling:
3 Tablespoons (45g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar or packed light or dark brown sugar
 

Icing:
1 cup (120g) confectioners’ sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2–3 Tablespoons (30-45ml) strong brewed coffee or milk

 I made this recipe with milk but I think coffee would taste amazing in the icing

  1. Make the dough: Whisk the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast together in a large bowl. Set aside.
  2. Combine the milk, water, and butter together in a pan. Use the stove and heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm to touch (about 110°F, you can use a candy thermometer for the right temp). Pour into the dry ingredients, add the egg, and stir until it forms a soft dough or use your mixer.
  3. On a lightly floured surface using floured hands, knead the dough for 3 minutes. Place in a lightly greased bowl (I use non-stick spray), cover loosely, and let rest for about 10 minutes.
  4. Fill the rolls: After 10 minutes, roll the dough out in a 14×8 inch rectangle. Spread the softened butter on top. Mix together the cinnamon and sugar. Sprinkle it all over the dough. Roll up the dough tightly. Cut into 10-12 even rolls and arrange in a lightly greased 9-inch round cake pan or pie dish.
  5. Rise: Tightly cover the rolls with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm, draft-free environment for 60-90 minutes.
  6. Bake the rolls: After the rolls have doubled in size, preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake for 25-28 minutes until lightly browned. If you notice the tops are getting too brown too quickly, loosely cover the rolls with aluminum foil and continue baking.
  7. Make the icing: Whisk the confectioners’ sugar, vanilla extract, and coffee or milk together. Drizzle or spread over warm rolls.
  8. Cover leftover frosted or unfrosted rolls tightly and store for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 5 days in the refrigerator.

I used the proof setting on my oven to proof these for an hour. You can just cover with towel and let sit on kitchen counter. The warmer the better.   

Here is how mine came out:

OREO CHEESECAKE BITES

Note: Prepare to make this everyday after you make it because they are addicting. I have never made cheesecake anything before this.

(8 oz. each) of cream cheese, softened 1 cup sugar 1 cup sour cream 1 tsp. vanilla 4 eggs 1/2 pound (8 oz) chocolate candy coating  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. 2. Line a 13x9" baking pan with foil, with ends extending over sides. Finely crush 24 cookies (I placed them in a food processor and crushed them finely). Melt 1/4 cup butter; mix with crumbs. Press onto bottom of prepared pan. 3. Beat softened cream cheese and sugar with mixer until blended. Add sour cream and vanilla; mix well.

CHOCOLATE PEANUT AND PRETZEL BRITTLE

Ingredients:  1 cup granulated sugar 2 tablespoons light corn syrup or golden syrup 1/4 cup water 2 tablespoons butter 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 3/4 cup broken-up chunks of thin salted pretzels 3/4 cup roasted salted peanuts 3/4 to 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips Directions:  1. Either grease a large cookie sheet or line it with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat. Get all of your other ingredients ready; you’re going to need to add them quickly in a few minutes, and you won’t have time to hunt and measure.  2. Combine sugar, corn or golden syrup and water in a medium saucepan, stirring just until sugar is wet. Attach a candy thermometer and heat over medium-high heat, without stirring, until mixture reaches between 300 and 305 degrees F. If you don’t have a candy thermometer, you’re looking for a small amount of the mixture dropped into cold water to separate into hard, brittle threads. This takes exactly 9 minutes on my stove. 3. Remove from heat and quickly sti...
