Christmas Recipes For The Sweet Tooth
There is nothing people like more at Christmas that giving thoughtful gifts to loved ones. Given these hard financial times however, you may be put off buying too many presents, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t make some lovingly created Christmas treats at home. Below are some great sweet recipes from IWOOT.
Fudge. This is what you will need
• A heavy saucepan with non-stick qualities
• A candy thermometer
• Some oven-proof trays
• 1lb fine white sugar, ½ pint semi-skimmed milk, 2oz soft butter, 14oz condensed milk.
Method: Whilst frequently stirring, mix and melt all the ingredients in the pan slowly. The mixture should start to become a rich creamy-brown colour as it approaches 115oC on the thermometer. Take off the heat and stir until mixture becomes very tough and grainy. Pour mixture into the baking trays, smooth out and leave to set. When set, cut into cubes and enjoy
Chocolate Chip Cookies. Here’s whats needed
• Mixing bowl
• Grease-proof paper
• Baking trays
• 4.5.5oz flour, 2.5oz butter, 1 egg, 2oz brown sugar,2oz caster sugar, 4oz choc chips, ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Method: Add sugar, flour, bicarbonate of soda, butter and vanilla extract into a bowl and mix together well with a spoon or using your hands. Add the egg and continue mixing until the mixture is doughy and a little sticky. Make some small balls out the mixture (about the size of a ping pong ball) and places them on the grease-proof paper which should be placed over a baking tray. Leave a good couple of inches between each ball as they will spread out and expand. Heat in the oven at between 180-200oC for around 12 minutes, but it is best to keep an eye on the cookies as ovens vary in cooking speed. Let the cookies cool down for 20mins before taking a bite.
