CANDY CANE COOKIES
CANDY CANE COOKIES
NOTA: Die deeg is baie baie sag, ek het dit in die vrieskas gesit en uit die vrieskas uitgewerk. Toe het dit beter gegaan, Ek moet dit een een doen wat die deeg word weer sag so ek maak een en sit dit dadelik op my bak pannetjie.
INGREDIENTS:
1 ¾ cup flour
¼ cup cornstarch
½ cup confectioners sugar
1 cup Margarine/butter
½ tsp peppermint extract
red food colouring (gel works best)
DIRECTIONS:
Cream together sugar, butter and peppermint extract with a mixer until they are nice and fluffy. Next add your cornstarch and flour and mix well. Separate the dough into two equal parts and place each in a bowl. Take one half and mix in enough food colouring to get the shade of red you desire. Now you can wrap both in plastic wrap and chill until they are pliable, about 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 175 grade C.
Now for the creative part! You can do this several ways, but this is how we did it. Take your tinted and untinted dough and using a melon baller or scooper, divide each dough into balls for rolling. You can roll one of each colour into a thin tube. After one colour of each is done, twist them together and shape into a candy cane. This may seem easy at first, but you may need to give it a couple of tries to get it right. If the dough get too soft, put it back in the fridge for 10 minutes.
Once your done with all the dough, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place sheets in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Make sure that these do not burn. They should be checked on often. You will know that they are done once they become firm but not “browned”

DIRECTIONS:
IN THE BREAD MACHINE
Place ingredients in bread machine in above order and choose the dough cycle.
Divide the dough in half.
Roll each half into a 9" round circle.
Spread some softened butter onto each circle (if desired) and cut each circle into 8 or 12 pie-shaped wedges, depending on the size of roll you want.
Starting with the wide end, roll up each wedge.
Place on greased baking pan, cover with a cloth and let stand for about 2 hours until roll has doubled in size.
Bake at 375 for 12 minutes.
WITHOUT BREAD MACHINE
In a large bowl, mix together yeast, milk and sugar. Let stand for 30 minutes.
Mix eggs, butter and salt into yeast mixture.
Mix in flour, 2 cups at a time.

FESTIVE BREAD
FESTIVE BREAD
INGREDIENTS:
2 teaspoons dry instant yeast
1 tablespoon sugar or honey
1/3 cup warm milk
2 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for kneading and flouring
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 warm milk (extra)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon vinegar or lemon juice
4 oz (1/2 cup) butter, melted and cooled
GLAZE:
1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons milk
METHOD:
Dissolve yeast and sugar in 1/3 cup warm milk, cover and leave in a warm place to rise 10 minutes.
In another bowl, sift the flour and salt together. Make a well in the middle and add beaten eggs into it, the remaining warm milk, olive oil, vinegar and yeast mixture. Knead the dough with your hands or in your mixer until it separates from the sides of the bowl. Remove dough, place on lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until it becomes a soft, pliable dough. Place in a greased bowl, cover with a towel and leave to rise in a warm place until doubled in volume – about an hour.
Punch risen dough and transfer on a floured surface, divide dough into 2 equal parts. Divide each of these again into 4, so you have 8 pieces of dough altogether.
Roll each piece of dough out into a roughly rectangular shape with a thickness of 3-5 mm. Brush cooled, melted butter over each piece. Set aside remaining butter for later.
Place one piece of rectangular dough over another one and start to roll into a cylinder. Do the same with the rest of the dough; you will end up with 4 cylindrical rolls altogether.
Cut each roll into three pieces in this way – slice at both ends of the roll about 1.5 inch long each, and put these two pieces aside. Then cut the middle part of the roll into 4 triangles.
Preheat oven to 350F. Grease or line a large baking tray. In the middle of the tray, arrange the cut ends of the rolls around each other to form a circle, placing the cut sides down. Arrange the cut triangles to completely surround the middle circle. Cover with towel and leave the dough to rise in a warm place for about 30-40 minutes.
Beat the yolk with the milk with a fork to form a glaze and brush top of the bread with the glaze. (You can sprinkle with sesame seeds or other dry toppings at this point.) Bake bread for 20-30 minutes, reducing the temperature to 300F after 10 minutes in the oven.
Brush bread with melted butter as soon as it comes out of the oven, cover with a towel and leave to cool for 10-15 minutes before eating.

1 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 2/3 cups plain flour

Gradually add the flour, baking powder and salt, continually beating, refrigerate 30 minutes.
(Na ek die uit die yskas uitgehaal het het ek my groen kleursel by gemeng)
Remove dough from refrigerator in small amounts. Scoop one heaping teaspoon at a time. Roll the dough into a thin finger-shaped cookie. Press one almond into one end of each cookie to give the appearance of a long fingernail. Squeeze cookie near the tip and again near the centre of each to give the impression of knuckles. You can also cut into the dough with a sharp knife at the same points to help give a more finger like appearance. Arrange the shaped cookie on the baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until the cookie are slightly golden in colour about 15 minutes.
Remove the almond from the end of each cookie, squeeze a small amount of red decorating gel into the cavity, replace the almond to cause the gel to ooze out around the tip of the cookie.

SUNNY SPINACH PIE
SUNNY SPINACH PIE
INGREDIENTS:
DOUGH:
530gr Flour
1/3 cup of extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon salt
FILLING:
375 gr of boiled spinach
375 gr ricotta
1 egg
90 gr of grated Parmesan
Salt and pepper
Bread crumbs
INSTRUCTIONS:
Place all dough ingredients in a stand mixer. Using the dough hook, knead until the dough is smooth and combined. Wrap in plastic while you make the filling.
To create the filling, mix the spinach with the ricotta.
Next, add your egg, Parmesan, and salt and pepper. Mix well. Set aside briefly.
Unwrap your dough from the plastic and divide it into two equal parts.
Using a rolling pin, roll out each dough ball to create two circles 30 cm in diameter each.
On your first circle, sprinkle breadcrumbs over-top to help absorb the moisture of the filling and to keep the dough dry.
Distribute the filling on the circle that was just sprinkled with breadcrumbs.
Place one large dollop at the center of the circle, and spread the remainder in a ring around the dough.
Sprinkle the filling with grated Parmesan.
Now, cover with the second circle of dough
Seal the edges with your hands, and then use a fork to press.
Place a small bowl in the middle of the pie and press lightly to make an indentation.
Use your fork to press lightly.
Cut the dough into pieces approximately 2 cm thick, keeping it attached at the center.
Twist each slice and continue until each slice is twisted.
Bake the spinach pie at 180°C for 30 minutes or until golden
