Brownies

Hi,

today I made brownies. I love brownies. They are actually made from a box, but they are still super good! We used Ghirardelli brownie mix. Click here if you want to check it out. Here is a picture of the brownies.

Peach Ice Cream

Here is a very good way to make Peach Ice Cream:

Ingredients:

One 24-once jar (or can) of peach slices in light syrup, drained

1 1/2 cups of heavy whipping cream

3/4 cup of confectioners' sugar

Instructions:

  Line 9 by 5-loaf pan with two layers of plastic wrap, and let the plastic wrap hang over the sides. 

  Then puree 1 cup of the drained peach slices in a blender. Chop the rest of the peach slices into small chunks. 

  Whip the cream with the confectioners' sugar until it's stiff. Do not over beat it. Gently fold the pureed peaches and peach chunks into the whipped cream. Fill the pan with the mixture, pull the plastic wrap over the top of the ice cream, and freeze it for at least 4 hours, or up to 2 days. 

  To serve, unmold the ice cream, peel off the plastic wrap, and slice. Then serve it to friends and family!

Snickerdoodles

Here is a recipe for some Snickerdoodle cookies:

What you will need:

2 sticks of unsalted butter at room temperature 
1 1/2 cups of sugar
2 large eggs at room temperature 
1 teaspoon per vanilla extract
2 3/4 cups of rice flour blend
2 teaspoons of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. 

In the bowl of am electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and 1 1/2 cups of sugar on the medium speed until very light and fluffy for about 5 min. Turn the speed to low, and add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well until each egg is fully mixed in. Add the Vanilla in as well. 

  In a separate large mixing bowl , whisk together the sweet rice four blend, baking powder, and salt. 
  Turn the mixer on low speed, and add the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Remove the bowl from the mixer and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl well with a large spatula, making sure all ingredients are well mixed. 
  Mix the ground cinnamon with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Form about 2 scant tablespoons of dough into a ball and roll in the cinnamon sugar. Repeat this with the remaining dough.
  Place the balls on the prepared baking sheets, about 3 inches apart.  
  Bake the cookies for 12 to 15 min. Let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 min.  Then you have some yummy snickerdoodles.
