Texas Sheet Cake

Texas Sheet Cake

2 cups flour

2 cups white sugar

2 cubes margarine or butter

1 cup water

4 tbsp cocoa powder

2 eggs, beaten

1 tsp soda

1 tsp vanilla

1/2 cup sour milk (1 tsp white vinegar and then the rest regular milk)

Mix flour and sugar in a large mixing bowl. In a sauce pan bring margarine, water and cocoa to a boil. Pour boiling mixture into flour mixture and mix thoroughly. Add eggs, milk soda and vanilla and mix until very smooth. Batter will be runny. Cook in a large baking sheet (I call it a cookie sheet.) Grease and flour the pan, but don’t use flour use cocoa powder. It works great on chocolate cake or brownies. Bake at 350° for 30-40 minutes. My oven only needs 28-30 minutes so watch it close. (It really depends on the pan you use.) A toothpick will come out clean when it is ready. Let cool and frost with following frosting recipe…

Fudgey Chocolate Frosting

1 cube butter

4 tbsp cocoa powder

5 tbsp milk

3 cups powdered sugar

Bring first three ingredients to a boil. Put powdered sugar in a mixing bowl. Pour boiling mixture into the mixing bowl with the powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly until smooth. Put on cake while still warm so it will spread easily.

Soft Pretzels

Ingredients:

·         1 1/2 cups warm water

·         2 tablespoons light brown sugar

·         1 package active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)

·         3 ounces unsalted butter, melted

·         2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

·         4 1/2 to 5 cups all-purpose flour

·         Vegetable oil

·         3 quarts water

·         3/4 cup baking soda

·         1 whole egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon cold water

·         Coarse sea salt

Directions:

1.      Combine the water, sugar, yeast, and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix with the dough hook until combined. Let sit for 5 minutes.

2.      Add the salt and flour and mix on low speed until combined. Increase the speed to medium and continue kneading until the dough is smooth and begins to pull away from the side of the bowl, about 3 to 4 minutes. If the dough appears too wet, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.

3.      Remove the dough from the bowl, place on a flat surface and knead into a ball with your hands.

4.      Oil a bowl with vegetable oil, add the dough and turn to coat with the oil.

5.      Cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap and place in a warm spot until the dough doubles in size, about 1 hour.

6.      Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

7.      Bring the water to a boil in a small roasting pan over high heat and add the baking soda.

8.      Remove the dough from the bowl and place on a flat surface.

9.      Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, about 4 1/4 to 4 1/2 ounces each.

10.  Roll each piece into a long rope and shape into the lengths or shapes that you want (sticks are easy and tasty).

11.  Boil the pretzels in the water solution in batches. Boil for about 30 seconds. Remove with a large slotted spoon.

12.  Place pretzels on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Make sure they are not touching.

13.  Brush the tops with the egg wash and season liberally with the salt.

14.  Place into the oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown.

15.  Add additional toppings immediately after they come out of the oven.

Best Cornbread

I got this cornbread recipe from my friend Stacie, who got it from this site. Jeff says this is the best cornbread he has ever eaten. I think the secret is the sugar. And the butter.

Ingredients:

½ C cornmeal
1 ½ C flour
2/3 C sugar
1 Tbs baking powder
½ tsp salt
1/3 C oil
3 Tbs butter, melted
2 eggs, beaten
1 ¼ C milk

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350. Combine dry ingredients. Make a well and add wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Bake in a greased 8x8 pan for 35 minutes. (I like to bake in muffin tins for about 25 minutes - it makes automatic portions and cooks evenly. But it is more dense in an 8x8 pan if you prefer it that way.)

Cheesy Potato Soup..

5-6 potatoes
chicken bullion (about 2 teaspoons)
1 cup flour
1 cup butter or margarine
milk
grated cheddar cheese (about three cups)
paprika
salt and pepper to taste
cooked bacon, chopped (optional)

Peel and cube potatoes. Place in a large pot and cover potatoes with water. You don't want too much water, just enough to cover the potatoes. Boil until tender then reduce the heat. Add the bullion, and the salt and pepper. In a smaller sauce pan, melt your butter or margarine. Once it is all melted, stir in the flour while the pan is still on the heat. Stir until it is a smooth paste. Reduce heat and add milk, whisking it until it is a smooth, thickened mixture. (This is your roux.) Add this at once to your potatoes and water. Stir continuously to make a smooth, thick soup. Add 2 cups of the shredded cheese and continue to stir until it is all melted. Sprinkle some paprika in to add color and a slight flavor. Dish up and top with more cheese and bacon. We like to have it with warm bread.

Over Night Rolls

Heat, then cool 1 cup of milk and 1/2 cup of butter or margarine. In a separate, small bowl (I use my Pyrex measuring cup) mix 1 tablespoon of yeast and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Moisten with a little warm water (like 1/4 cup) to activate the yeast.
In a large bowl, beat 3 eggs, then add 1/2 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the mil mixture, yeast, and 4 cups of flour. Stir well.
No need to knead.
Cover and let rise overnight.
Next morning, divide the dough. Roll into two circles on a floured board and cut the circles into 16 triangles (much like a pizza). Brush with melted butter or margarine and roll into a crescent shape.
Let rise 4-5 hours and bake at 350 for 15 minutes.

Italian Pasta Salad

-tomatoes

-cucumbers

-crumbled bacon

-cubed cheese

-fresh grated parmesan cheese

-italian salad dressing

-tortellini

-mini bow ties

(you can also add chopped peperoni and sliced olives if desired)

Boil pastas according to directions. My favorite dried tortellini is the Four Cheese Tortellini from Barilla. I had to use up some other stuff this time that I picked up at Costco. While the pasta is cooking, chop tomatoes and cucumbers. Place in a large bowl. Add crumbled bacon. You can cook and crumble your own bacon, but I took the easy route and used real bacon bits. Cube cheese (I like sharp cheddar and swiss or mozerella, but you can add whatever you have on hand). Add fresh grated parmesan cheese. When pasta is done, strain and rinse under cold water until noodles have cooled. When cool, toss with remaining ingredients and pour italian salad dressing over, continuing to toss. You can use low fat italian or even homemade italian dressing...anything with work. Refrigerate for a few hours before serving. Keep in air tight container in fridge.

French Bread - Rachel Naylor

1/4 C warm water
1 C hot water
1 1/2 Tbs Sugar
1/2 Tbs salt
2 1/2 Tbs oil
3 C flour

1 egg white (for crust browning)

Directions:
Dissolve yeast in 1/4 C water. Let stand 10 min (I use instant yeast and don't wait 10 minutes). Combine all ingredients (except egg white) and beat well. Allow the dough to rise until double (about 45 minutes). Punch it down and then allow it to rise again (about 45 minutes). Roll into 1 long loaf and put on a greased baking sheet. Gash the tops diagonally with a knife. Mix the egg white with 1-2 Tbs of water. Brush egg wash over entire loaf. Let rise for at least 30 minutes. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 15-20 minutes.

Italian Calzone-Heidi Wood

Ingredients
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup diced pepperoni
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon dried basil leaves
1 egg, beaten

Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

To Make Dough: In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add the oil, sugar and salt; mix in 1 cup of the flour until smooth. Gradually stir in the rest of the flour, until dough is smooth and workable. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes, or until it is elastic. Lay dough in a bowl containing 1 teaspoon olive oil, then flip the dough, cover and let rise for 40 minutes, or until almost doubled.

To Make Filling: While dough is rising, combine the ricotta cheese, Cheddar cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms and basil leaves in a large bowl. Mix well, cover bowl and refrigerate to chill.

When dough is ready, punch it down and separate it into 2 equal parts. Roll parts out into thin circles on a lightly floured surface. Fill each circle with 1/2 of the cheese/meat filling and fold over, securing edges by folding in and pressing with a fork. Brush the top of each calzone with egg and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet.

Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 30 minutes. Serve hot.

NOTE: I filled mine with pepperoni, green pepper, onion, olive, mushrooms, and the cheeses. I used mozzarella instead of cheddar. I also added garlic salt, and some italian seasoning. I just used Rhodes roll dough and made mini calzones. I would let mine rise a little longer before baking, so I could re-seal them. They turned out really good :)
