Tri-Color Christmas Spritz Cookies

What not to love of this colorful cookies.  It helps brightens and brings cheers to this holiday season. At the time of baking this cookies, I don't have any red gel coloring, so I just use whatever colors that is available: green and orange.


Ingredients:

227 g. unsalted butter (room temperature)

1/3 cup sugar (add more if you prefers sweeter)

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

1 large egg

2 1/2 cups plain flour (sifted)

1/4 tsp. salt

Green gel food coloring

Orange gel food coloring (use red if you have)


Methods:

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, add butter and sugar.  Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.  Add vanilla extract and egg and mix until combined.  Reduce the mixer speed to low, add the flour and salt, and mix until just combined.
  2. Remove all but 1/4 cup of the dough to a flour-dusted surface and set aside.  Add enough green gel food coloring to the dough left in the bowl to color it a vibrant green like a wreath, 3-4 drops.  Mix on low until dough is completely green.  Remove the green dough to a flour dusted surface and gently fold until it comes together.  Wipe the mixer bowl and whisk clean of the green coloring.
  3. Place another 1/4 of the reserved white dough back into the bowl.  Add enough orange/red gel coloring to color it a vibrant red like a fire truck, 3-4 drops.  Mix on low until the dough is completely red.  Remove the dough to a flour-dusted surface and gently fold until it comes together.
  4. To pipe the cookies: tear off 2 ping pong balls size pieces of the white dough and add to the barrel of a cookie press; add 1 marble-size piece of the green dough and 1 marble-size of the red dough.  Repeat pattern until the barrel is filled (you will not use all of the dough).  Place a wreath disc onto the cookie press barrel according to the manufacturer's instructions.  Press the cookies onto an ungreased baking sheet.  Repeat with the remaining dough and refill the barrel with the leftover dough.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven of 170 degree Celsius for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cookies are firm but not yet browning on the bottom.  Remove from oven and continue to bake another batch of the cookies.
  6. Cool the cookies for 1 minute on the baking sheets, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely. 
  7. Store the cookies in an airtight container.
  8. Enjoy the cookies with a cup of Hot Chocolate/Cocoa. Merry Christmas!
Ready for baking!

Red Velvet Cookies

To be frank, this is the first time I ever baked Red Velvet Cookies/Muffins/Cupcakes/Cakes.  The outcome of this Cookies is simply yummylicious.  My daughter, Karen happen to be in town, tasted it, and requested to bake a batch for her to bring home.


Ingredients:

190 g. plain flour (sifted)

2 tbsp. cocoa powder

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder (sifted)

1/4 tsp. salt

113 g. unsalted butter (softened)

100 g. brown sugar

1 large egg

1 tsp. vanilla extract

3/4 tbsp. red food coloring/gel


Methods:

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, add butter and sugar.  Beat until light and fluffy.
  2. Add in egg, vanilla extract and red coloring.  Mix until combined.
  3. Then mix in all the dry ingredients.  Scrap down the sides with a rubber spatula.
  4. Chill the dough for 30 minutes.
  5. Scoop the dough (I weigh it to get the same size), roll it into balls and place on a lined baking sheet, leave spaces between each cookies for it to spread during baking.  I also use a piece of parchment paper, place over the top of each cookie, and flattened with a flat glass bottom.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven of 170 degree Celsius for 10-12 minutes.
  7. Place the cookies on a cooling rack and drizzle with white chocolate.  For the chocolate glaze, I melt the white chocolate buttons with some butter.  Pour into a piping bag, snip the end and ready to use.
  8. Once the glaze has hardened, store the cookies in an airtight container.
  9. It's time to enjoy...

Snickerdoodle Cookies

Around this time every year, I will start to bake Christmas Cookies to enjoy in the comfort of home!  Apart from baking Christmas Cookies, I also love watching Hallmark Christmas Movies, not forgetting enjoying sipping hot chocolate/cocoa.  Even though it's not cold outside, but it's something which I will do to get the real feel of the Christmas Season.  For me, it has always been the best time of the year!

Let me share my first Christmas bake 'Snickerdoodle Cookies.'  For infor, this recipe calls for baking soda, but I did not use, instead I add 3 teaspoons of  baking powder.  The cookies comes out deliciously yummy and soft.  However, the cookies does not spread out as per the recipe with baking soda.  But, the texture is still great!



Ingredients:

227 g. unsalted butter (soften)

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

2 3/4 cups plain flour (sifted)

3 tsp. baking powder (sifted)

2 tsp. cream of tartar (sifted)

1/4 tsp. salt


Cinnamon sugar coating:

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 tsp. ground cinnamon


Methods:

  1. Using a stand mixer, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.  This will take 3-5 minutes, so don't try to rush it!
  2. Add in eggs and mix until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the flour together with baking powder, cream of tartar and salt.  
  4. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Scoop the dough into balls using an ice-cream scoop, then roll the dough balls in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  6. Place the cookies on a lined baking sheet at least 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake in a preheat oven of 170 degree Celsius for 12-14 minutes, or until lightly golden but still soft.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before moving them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
  9. Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.

Soft & Chewy Brownie Cookies

Brownies! Yum-Yum!! I love them, and have baked quite a number of times with recipes from different sources.  Baking them at home is my preference, as I can control the sweetness.

Recently, I came across a recipe of this Brownie Cookies, and the photo itself already tempt me ~ slurp ~  Without much ado, I bought a pack of good quality cocoa powder and jump in straight to bake it.  The outcome is indeed 'Superb' with crinkly tops!!!


Here's the recipe to share with all Brownie lovers...

Ingredients:

100 g. good quality dark chocolate (chopped)

55 g. unsalted butter (cold from the fridge is fine)

12 g. cocoa powder (good quality)

1 large egg (50g. not including shell, at room temperature)

40 g. caster sugar

50 g. brown sugar

55 g. plain flour (sifted)

1/4 tsp. salt


Methods:

  1. Using a 2 1/2" cookie cutter and a pencil, trace 8 circles on a piece of parchment paper (one line of three, one line of two, then one line of three), leaving even spacing between them.  Turn the paper over so the pencil side is facing down.  Place the parchment paper in a baking sheet pan.
  2. Snip the end of the piping bag, and fit the piping bag with a medium round tip.  Place a clip above the piping tip and another at the end of the piping bag to stop any batter leaking out.
  3. In a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water (make sure the bowl does not touch the water), combine the dark chocolate and butter.  Heat, stirring frequently until the chocolate and butter are melted and the mixture is smooth.  Remove the bowl from heat and sift the cocoa powder over the chocolate and butter mixture, and stir until well combined.  Leave to stand for 8 minutes.  When there is 4 minutes to go, start whipping the egg mixture.
  4. In a mixer bowl, combine egg, caster sugar and brown sugar.  Whisk on medium speed to high speed until the mixture has lightened and increased in volume.  
  5. Add the chocolate mixture to the sugar and egg mixture and whisk until well combined.
  6. Add the flour and salt, and incorporate by hand using a rubber spatula until the mixture is smooth and does not have any lumps.  Transfer the mixture to the piping bag.
  7. Pipe the mixture onto the parchment paper - you want to hold the tip about 2cm. above the parchment and squeeze until you pipe a dome the diameter of the template that you drew.  Finish each one with a little flick of your wrist.  Do not worry if you do not get them large enough - you can go back and add more batter once they are all piped out - just pipe it onto the middle of each mound and they will spread out.
  8. Bake the cookies in a preheated oven of 180 degree Celsius for 10 minutes, until they are just set, and crinkly on the tops.  Do not over bake as they will dry out.  Leave to cool completely on the pan (they are quite soft so will need to set) before transferring to a storage container or serving.
  9. Store leftover brownie cookies in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for up to a week.

Piped and ready for baking
