Great Bread Recipe

I have had great bread recipes passed down from my grandmother to my mother and finally to me. This is a great bread recipe.

Blueberry Buckle Brunch Bread

1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 cup flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 cup milk
2 cups blueberries
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg

Ok, now the directions on this great bread recipe. Cream 1/4 cup butter together with 1/2 cup sugar. Beat in egg and vanilia and stir until smooth. Sift together 1 cup flour, baking poweder and salt. Add alternately with the milk to the creamed mixture, starting with the dry ingredients. Pour intoa greased 9-ich square baking pan and top with blue-berries. Combine the remaining sugar and flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Using a pastry blender or fork, cut in remaining butter until the texture resembles coarse cornmeal. Sprinkle oer blueberries. Bake in preheated oven at 350 degrees for one hour. Cool slightly before serving. This is a great bread recipe that I know will make your house smell great.

I like to plan ahead what breads I am going to make that week. As the winter comes I start to gravitate towards heavier more filling breads, such as sourdough and heavy coffee cakes. Of course, in the summertime I like the lighter more airy tasting breads, such as strawberry bread or a variation of angels food cake with lime. When you leave the house for a while and come back in to the smell of baking bread, I think you'll agree that there is nothing like the smell or taste of a great bread.

Batik Cake






WITH Hari Raya around the corner, it´s time to indulge in a little traditional treat. Kek batik has long been a favourite dessert during this season, and instead of hunting for it at your neighbourhood Ramadan baazar, try making your own.

INGREDIENTS

175g butter
4 large eggs
300g Tea Pot condensed milk
40g Nestum
110g Milo powder
15g cocoa powder
125ml water
280g Marie biscuits (break into pieces)

METHOD

1. Beat butter till light and creamy. Add in one egg at a time and beat well after each addition.

2. In a saucepan, mix together Tea Pot condensed milk, Nestum, cocoa powder, Milo and water. Add in the butter mixture. Mix well.

3. Cook over low heat until batter thickens, stirring all the time so that it won´t get burnt.

4. When the batter thickens, turn off the heat and set aside to cool. Gently fold in the Marie biscuits bit by bit.

5. Spread the cake mixture and press lightly layer by layer on a greased and lined 7-inch square cake tin.

6. Bake at 150C for one hour. Remove and let cool thoroughly before wrapping up tightly with
aluminum foil. Chill for a few hours or overnight before serving.

Note: The small crumbs from breaking the Marie Biscuits into pieces should be discarded and not added to the cake batter.

Tiramisu

Tiramisu recipe picture

Info

  • Prep: 1 - 2 hrs.
  • Cook: ~30 mins.
  • Serves: 12

Ingredients

All the ingredients came from Trader Joe's except for the powdered sugar:

You'll need (from left):

Decent rum
A pot of coffee
Two 8 oz. tubs of mascarpone cheese
Good chocolate
3 eggs
Heavy cream
Powdered sugar
3 boxes of ladyfingers

(Additional ingredients for this recipe are listed below in recipe steps).


About the only really special piece of equipment you'll need is a 10+1/2" (or thereabouts) springform pan. Everything else I used should be present in any decent kitchen.

Step 1

The bottom of the springform pan get a lining with a double layer of foil. This just helps seal up the pan so coffee won't leak out. The the barrel of the pan gets clamped on and the excess foil tucked underneath.

Step 2

The Custard 3 egg yolks 1/3 cup of powdered sugar 1/3 cup of rum

Step 3

Whisk together well over simmering water. ... continue to whisk until it thickens a bit. (Note that the bowl is tempered glass. Don't try this with a bowl which is not heat-resistant.) When the custard is done, put it in the fridge to cool.

Step 4

The Cheese Mixture Put your mascarpone and another 1/3 cup of powdered sugar in a larger bowl. Cream them together with a rubber spatula.

Step 5

Then beat with a hand mixer...

Step 6

... until it looks like this.

Step 7

Add 1+1/2 cups of heavy cream.

Step 8

And beat. It will look like extra-thick whipped cream...

Step 9

... and then like over-beaten cream. At this point, I felt the custard was still a little warm, so I put the cheese mixture in the fridge to keep cool and proceeded on with other things.

Step 10

The Chocolate Shavings You will need: Chocolate and a grater.

Step 11

Using the fine side of the grater, I reduced an ounce of fine chocolate to fine shavings.

Step 12

I then folded up the foil into a packet so I could put it in the fridge to keep cool.

Step 13

Back to the Cheese Mixture Everything's cool now, so it's time to mix the custard with the cheese mixture. Pour it in.

Step 14

Fold it together. Put it back in the fridge to stay cool.

Step 15

Assembly You will need: Ladyfingers, knife, coffee, and a rimmed plate. The ladyfingers are a little longer than the pan is tall. I therefore will trim the ends a litlle. Since these are ladyfingers, I think of this as trimming the fingernails. The trimmed ones do not get soaked in the coffee. They get stood up around the outside of the pan, frosted side out. The whole ones get soaked in the coffee for a few seconds, until they are about half wet and half dry, and are used to support the upright ones.

Step 16

The bottom doesn't need to look nice, especially, since it won't show. The outside needs to be pretty. Done. You can see a few places where I've filled holes by soaking a few of the "fingernails" and stuffed them in.

Step 17

Starting to add the cheese mixture. It should seal against every single upright ladyfinger and cover the bottom evenly. Make sure to use less than half. Done with the first layer of cheese mixture and ready fro the next layer of ladyfingers.

Step 18

More ladyfingers get soaked in coffee until about half-wet and are used to make an even layer on top of the cheese mixture. Second layer of ladyfingers is done; ready for more cheese mixture.

Step 19

Second layer of the cheese mixture going in. All done. Took the chocolate out of the fridge... ... and cut off the corner to make a little hole. Then I held the packet by the edges so my body heat wouln't melt the chocolate and sprinkled it on top of the cheese mixture.

Step 20

Voila! ready to cover with foil and stick in the fridge until it's time to go to the party. And here's what it looks like as it's opened up. As expected, the tiramisu was a smash.
