Ridiculously Easy I mean it. Easy. E…..Z…. Peach Crunch Cake. You need some sliced peaches in syrup. Just dump them in a 13 X 9 dish. Note: this can also be called a dump cake. Cut the peaches into smaller pieces and you can distribute them more evenly. Next up, you need a yellow cake mix. Sprinkle it right over the top of the peaches. Keep sprinkling until it’s all covered up. Then layer 1 stick of butter right on the top. For some reason this photo makes me smile. And this really makes me smile. Oh this is looking good. Finally, add some chopped walnuts. Here ’tis from the top and again from the side. Bake it at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes and voila… Peach crunch cake. Some for me… Some more for me… Good alone… good warm… good cold… and Good warm with something cold. Yum. Peach Crunch Cake 24.5 oz jar of sliced peaches in light syrup 1 package yellow cake mix 1 stick butter (1/2 cup), cut into 16 pieces 1 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup chopped walnuts Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Enjoy! See, that was easy. Go.

Muffin Galaxy: 10 RECETAS INFALIBLES PARA APROVECHAR LAS CLARAS DE HUEVO Siempre me pasa igual. Utilizo yemas de huevo para hacer cremas, helados y alguna que otra receta. Luego pienso: ¿y ahora que hago yo con las claras? Y me paso un buen rato buscando y buscando, porque de una vez para otra no me acuerdo. He pensado que quizás vosotros también os hayáis encontrado en la misma situación y puede que la lista os pueda ser útil. Aquí os la dejo, sólo os digo que el orden no tiene relación con el sabor, con mis preferencias ni nada por el estilo. 1- Bundt cake de canela y brandy: Ligero, aromática y muy esponjoso. 2- Merengues con ganache de chocolate: La receta os propone unos nidos de merengue rellenos de ganache, pero podéis cambiar el relleno a vuestro gusto o adaptarlo a lo que tengáis en la despensa: bolas de helado, crema pastelera, nata… Aromatizados con café soluble, cacao o aroma de fresa, también están buenísimos tal cual. 3- Financiers de cereza : Tan solo espolvoreados con azúcar glas tienen un aspecto elegante y están ricos, ricos.

Cake Batter Pancakes I’m fairly convinced that the world would be a better place if more sprinkles were involved. I know. I just made pancakes. When I develop recipes, I try to make all of them for a purpose. Case in point: it isn’t anyone’s birthday. But I don’t need an excuse to eat cake and sprinkles. And because pancakes always need some sort of topping, I went with a sprinkled glaze. Because nothing goes better with cake than more sugar! These are just plain fun. Sure, they would be best for a special occasion like a birthday, but they also work on a random Saturday in January when it’s -2 degrees outside and all you want to see is some sunshine. That wasn’t me. And yes, this means you will have an open box of cake mix, just like you did with the cake batter bark. Cake Batter Pancakes makes about 12 pancakes 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour 2/3 cup yellow cake mix 1 tablespoon sugar 3/4 teaspoon baking powder pinch of salt 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1-2 cups milk (I used vanilla almond milk) assorted sprinkles

Roscon Reyes KidchenAid Ya sabéis que en mi familia todos los años se viene haciendo el Roscón de Reyes casero, un bollo que siempre os hemos animado a hacer en casa porque no es complicado y los resultados son espectaculares. Para los que no lo sepáis, fue mi hermano quien en el año 99 introdujo a la familia en la preparación de este dulce tras escuchar una receta de un cocinero en la radio. Como no había por aquel entonces apenas información en internet, con esta receta trabajó durante un par de años con algún que otro reajuste como por ejemplo el exceso de mantequilla y fue a partir del año 2001 cuando llegó a mejorar la receta hasta llegar a la que hoy por hoy es ya es un clásico en el recetario familiar. Pues el resultado para nuestra sorpresa ha sido muy satisfactorio, y la amasadora, en nuestro caso ya sabéis Kitchen Aid, ha convertido este dulce en algo sencillísimo. Primera fermentación, el prefermento Vamos con la preparación. Este será su aspecto final. Lo mezclamos y reservamos. Salud.

Bake It in a Cake • Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting This has been, hands down, the most popular Bake It in a Cupcake creation to date. That’s not very surprising when you consider that pumpkin pie is the second most popular pie in America. To save time, you can make the miniature pies up to 2 days in advance — just store them in the refrigerator until you’re ready to make the cupcakes. The pies can also be prepared quickly with premade pie crust—as I’ve said, there’s no shame in taking shortcuts.

Homemade Ranch Dressing Necessity is the mother of invention. Before I moved to the country and started raising a family, I hadn’t a clue what that adage meant. Oh, believe me, I’m not suggesting that one has to move to the country in order to be inventive, resourceful, or creative. I guess what I’m saying is…I did. In the coming months, I plan to periodically discuss the concept of buying in bulk—not necessarily as a means of amassing huge quantities of food, but as a means of strategically stocking your pantry for longterm meal preparation, and, in the long run, saving considerable amounts of money. If only I actually knew anything…then we’d be home free. For now, to keep it simple, I want to share my I’m-All-Out-of-Hidden-Valley- Ranch-Packets-Dadgummit-So-What-the-Heck-Do-I-Do? The Cast of Characters: Mayonnaise (for the love of Pete, NOT Miracle Whip), Sour Cream, Buttermilk or Regular Milk, Garlic, Italian (Flat Leaf) Parsley, Chives, and Salt. Sorry. Okay, first, start with 1 to 2 cloves of garlic. Now!

Zebra cake recipe, Zebra Cheesecake recipe You know the story - girl meets recipe and falls in love after seeing recipe across the crowded internet. The recipe looks a bit different from what she is used to so girl is instantly intrigued. After the first tempting glimpse, girl can't get recipe out of her mind. Recipe even features in girl's dream that evening. Tuty's lovely blog Scent of Spice was the blog that first introduced me to this amazing Zebra cake. The original recipe was for a regular buttercake which I had all of the ingredients for but I wanted to make it as a cheesecake. For those of you unfamiliar with Japanese cheesecakes, they're nothing like regular baked or unbaked cheesecakes. I made the batter according to the instructions and clutched my hands together anxiously in front of the oven. Girl slices cheesecake, breathes a sigh of relief and thanks the gods of culinary fate that she has at last found her true love and that it hasn't let her down. The End. Preparation time: 30-40 minutes Baking time: 1 hour 5.
