Just Discovered RSL Was Atticus Finch In A 2013 Play Of To Kill A Mocking Bird. I’m Going Insane Trying

Fresh Strawberry and Cream Cheese Danish

INGREDIENTS:

2 sheet Puff Pastry dough, thawed

8 ounces Cream Cheese, softened

1 tsp Vanilla Extract

½ tsp Almond Extract

4 Tbsp Sugar

1 ½ cup Fresh Strawberries, sliced

1 Tbsp Cornstarch

1 Egg + 2 Tablespoons water, whisked for egg wash

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking sheet.

In a small bowl, mix together the strawberries and corn starch. Set aside.

On a lightly floured surface roll out thawed puff pastry into a 12×9″ rectangle. Cut in half lengthwise, yielding 2 4-½” strips. Cut those two strips crosswise into thirds, to yield six 4×4 ½” pieces.With a knife, score ½” border around the edge of each piece of puff pastry. Use a fork to make five or six pricks into the dough within the border of each piece. This will help keep the middle of each piece from rising.

In a bowl, stir together softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla and almond. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of mixture into the middle of each piece of dough and spread around evenly, ensuring the mix stays within the borders.

In the middle of the cream cheese, add a couple of spoonfuls of strawberries into the middle.

Bake for 18-20 minutes, on the middle rack and rotate the baking sheet half way through baking. Remove from baking sheet and cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or room temperature. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving. Shave chocolate over the top as well, if desired.

“Sharlotka” is a classic Russian apple cake. In some parts of the world, it’s known as the French Apple cake and it is best described as an apple sponge cake. This cake is packed with apples😍 Unlike traditional apple pie, which is heavy on the crust, this cake makes apples the star of the show. This results in a cake that is airy, soft and beautifully simple. Feel free to use any apple in this cake.

Soooo, you need:

4 eggs

1 cup sugar

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 tbsp cornstarch

4 large apples

powdered sugar for dusting

Wash, peal and dice apples into one inch pieces. Using a mixer, beat eggs with sugar, until it’s three times in volume. Using a spatula, fold in flour by thirds, add 1 tsp of baking powder and 1 tbsp of cornstarch. Line a baking pan with parchment paper. Cover bottom of the pan (I use 8 inches pan/20cm) with some cake batter, lay out the diced apples, cover apples with cake batter, shake the pan a bit, to spread batter between each apple piece. You have to do two layers of apples and cover the top of your cake with cake batter. The main thing is that the cake batter has to be not too thick and not too liquid.

Bake it at 350F/180C for 40 minutes, check using a wooden toothpick. If the cake is ready, the dough should not stick to the toothpick. It may take a bit more than 40 mins.

Rereading SOC and thinking about Erin.

Triggering her panic attack and Kaz finding her hyperventilating in the corner, unable to move.

Directions:

Green tea pastry cream 

1. In a mixing bowl, add and mix egg yolks, sugar and vanilla extract until pale yellow. And then, add green tea powder, flour and mix well. 

2. In a milk pot, add and simmer milk. You can add vanilla bean now instead of adding the extract in step (1). 

3. Slowly add warmed milk to (1)egg yolk mixture and mix well. 

4. In a pot, pour the (3) mixture and constantly stir until creamy on medium heat. 

 5. Transfer to bowl, cover with wrap and let completely cool. 

Green tea Craquelin

1. In a mixing bowl, soften the butter kept at room temperature, add and mix the sugar, green tea powder and flour. 

2. Make the dough into a ball, cover the top and bottom with plastic wrap or put in a bag and roll it to 2~3mm thickness.

3. Freeze before use. 

 Choux pastry

1. In a pot, boil water, cubed butter and salt. Turn off the heat when butter is melted. And then, add flour and mix with a spatula. 

2. When flour is completely incorporated, turn on the heat again until a thin coat forms on the bottom of the pot.

3. Transfer the batter in a mixing bowl and cool it until lukewarm.

4. Beat the egg in another mixing bowl, slowly add the beaten egg into the batter and mix well using spatula.

5. Transfer the pastry batter into a piping bag and pipe into 3~3.5cm sized balls.

7. Bake into preheated oven at 180℃ for 20~25min. Temperature and baking time may vary due to type of the oven. Be careful not to open the oven in the middle, or the choux will sink. 

 Assembly

Hello! I'm terribly sorry to bother you, but I just wanted to say that I love your blog! I've tried out some of your recipes, and they're all soooo good! Oh! I also wanted to know if you know any recipes for hot cocoa?

Aww, thank you so much! I’m so glad you like them ^_^ and I do happen to have a recipe for hot cocoa!

HOT COCOA TO WARM A ICY HEART POTION

Is there one person in your life that just absolutely gets on every one of your nerves? Do you still have to associate with them even though they make your teeth grind? This hot cocoa will calm your nerves and release your heart from its icy cadge. You will then find a little more tolerance to deal with said person.

What you will need:

2 Hershey bars

2 tbsp vanilla sugar

2 tbsp cocoa powder

1 soft caramel candy

1 tbsp condensed milk

1/4 tsp instant coffee (not coffee grounds, I’ve made that mistake before lol)

3 cups milk

Whipped cream

Directions

Heat your milk and condensed milk on medium heat. Add in your vanilla sugar, caramel candy, and instant coffee. Melt in your chocolate chips and stir in cocoa powder. Let simmer for about 5 minutes before ladling into cups, and serve with whipped cream.

Take your hot chocolate into a quiet place and sit in the center of the room. Say this incantation three times before pressing your lips to the cup and drinking it.

No longer will you send shivers down my core”

Drink and enjoy!
