Perhaps "Off Topic" would have been better than "Random Stupidity".

I made this a couple of weeks ago:
Note the references to beating and whipping [:D]

Buttermilk Spice Cake

Preheat the oven to 350F and prepare your 8x8 cake pan.

In a large bowl combine:
2 cups cake OR all purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp of cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cloves
2 Tbls ginger
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking soda
 
Whisk together the dry ingredients until you have a uniform mixture then add:
8 Tbls softened butter
3/4 cup buttermilk

Beat together to thoroughly incorporate the ingredients.
(use your paddle attachment of your stand mixer if you have one)
The mixture will be very thick and begin to get fluffy.

Add 2 eggs
Beat for a minute or two to combine the eggs and whip air into the batter.
It will have a consistency similar to homemade whipped cream.

Pour into your prepared pan and with a spatula smooth the surface a little.

Bake for 50-55 min (until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle)
If you use a different sizepan the time will have to be adjusted.

If you wish to scene while the cake is baking, set the timer and do it where any big vibrations will not affect the cake or the cake may fall.

Cool completely in the pan and frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting.

FR, after read thru


Well, I thought they were delicious, Gypsy.

  • Light, fluffy, they added air & sweetness to the mix ... .

  • Threads frequently need seasoning & careful cooking or they turn out raw or overcooked, bland or unpalatable.

  • & there are always way too frickin' many cooks in the kitchen . .. . .


*smacks, with gooey spoon, at the multitude of fingers dippin' in the bowls*


But tastes vary so much. One person's ambrosial chili is another persons cheap canned dog food, so, eh . . .. .

Sorry to hear it shut down that portion of the blend, rather than serving 6, 8, 12, 16, or however many . .. . . .

Made pumpkin bread from this recipe the other day. The teen inhaled it. He swears it's the best. I lessened the spices since I'm not a fan of very spicy sweet breads and added some vanilla.




DarkSteven -> RE: Recipes for wierdness (10/7/2009 5:56:39 PM)

I'm a bachelor, so ya KNOW it'll be simple.

Chicken a la DarkSteven

Spray nonstick spray on a frying pan.  Take some boneless, skinless chicken breasts or, better yet, breast strips, and pan grill them.  After a couple of minutes, add a 50-50 mixture of ranch dressing and salsa to the pan.  Push the chicken so it sits in the glop.  Cook till done, stirring as often as you damn well please.

Add a garnish if you care about looks.

I'll bet it actually tastes better than you make it sound . .. . [;)]

I bet you could also smear the chicken with the Ranch dressing & chuck it on a cookie sheet & broil or bake the chicken (15-20 minutes?). Serve the cooked chicken on little pools of salsa poured onto the plate . . . . . .

I'm 3 days into learning how to make sourdough starter for the first time, and given the nauseating stench that assaults my delicate nostrils every time I pull the lid off the glass bowl, the term "recipe for weirdness" seems like a particularly timely phrase. I'm wary and disillusioned at the moment, but hoping for some sort of change in direction by tomorrow....

Des,
Did you use canned pumpkin or cook yours from scratch?




hizgeorgiapeach -> RE: Recipes for wierdness (10/8/2009 1:42:30 PM)

I've spent the last 3 days in the kitchen.... 11 dozen chocolate chip cookies, Foccacia w/garlic, olives, rosemary, and mozzarella, Foccacia w/tomato, basil, and proscutto, 2 Gubana loaves, and 3 dozen "fighter biscuts".  (The term "fighter biscut" derives from the SCA - it's basically a yeast bread or biscut type roll which has had cheese and either ground sausage or finely minced pepperoi added to the dough before it's formed and baked.)  I've still got 2 dozen peanut butter cookies, and 2 dozen oatmeal raisin cookies to get done this evening, so that all of that can go with me to a camping event this weekend.  30th anniversary of the local group, so all of us are helping supply goodies to keep the outta towners who are coming in for this well fed.
 
Do NOT ask me how I managed to find the time to do it all while dealing with dad.  I'm basically running on 3 hours of sleep over the past 48 hours.

Baked a small sugar pumpkin. Made about 5 cups of mashed pumpkin. If you bake your own, it's drier than the canned stuff so add a little more liquid. Oh and since I've got a little cider left in the fridge, I used that for the liquid.

Cherry and Chai Rice Pudding

Ingredients
3 cups 1% milk
1/2 cup arborio rice
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup Splenda
1/8 tsp salt
2 tsp butter
1/4 cup liquid egg substitute
4 tbsp dried tart cherries chopped
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp cardamom, ground
1/4 tsp allspice
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
4 tsp brown sugar

Recipe Method
1- In a large saucepan, stir 21 /2 cups of the milk, rice, sugar, Splenda, salt, and butter. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
2- Combine egg substitute with remaining 1 /2 cup milk and stir. Add about 1/3 of the milk-rice mixture into egg mixture, then return to pan, stirring constantly. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3- Stir in cherries and continue to simmer uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until rice is tender. Remove from heat.
4- Stir in vanilla and spices. Divide evenly into individual bowls and top each serving with 1 Tablespoon of chopped cherries and 1 teaspoon brown sugar. Serve.
Makes 6 half-cup servings.

I made a couple of changes:
I used an organic vanilla milk that was in the dairy clearance aisle for 2 cups of the milk and I omitted the sugar, but added theSplenda.
I also used 2 bags of red tea chai instead of the spices; steeping it in warmed vanilla milk and I omitted the vanilla from the recipe.
I did not top with additional cherries or brown sugar.

I've never cared for the sourdough thing.

Real bread, though, is not the project some envision. Mix it, kneed it, cover it and leave it. Come back tomorrow, kneed it, cover it and kneed it. Come back next day, bake it.

Very little time, actually, and well worth the effort.
