Confetti Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Add the ingredients to bread machine according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Select basic white cycle and crust setting.
• NOTE: Dough may appear stiff at first until the vegetables have released some of their liquid during the kneading cycle.
• Watch closely; it may be necessary to add 1 to 3 tablespoons additional flour.
• If you prefer, you can use the dough setting on your machine and bake in a conventional oven at 350 degrees F until golden brown.

Steps:

• For the pull-apart bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 10-inch bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Separate the biscuits and cut into quarters. Put the rainbow sprinkles in a large resealable plastic bag, add the biscuit pieces and shake until coated. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon and 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar. Seal the bag and shake until everything is mixed. Pour the pieces into the prepared pan and set aside.
• Heat the butter with the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring, until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Mix in the almond extract. Pour the mixture over the biscuit pieces.
• Bake until the top of the bread is golden, about 30 minutes. Cover with foil and continue to bake until cooked through, an additional 5 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
• For the frosting: Mix the confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, butter and salt in a medium bowl. Add the vanilla and 2 tablespoons of the milk and mix until smooth. Add another tablespoon of the milk if the frosting's too thick.
• Spread the frosting on top of the cake and garnish with the rainbow sprinkles.

Steps:

• For the dough: Grease a large bowl with butter and set aside.
• Pour the flour, sugar and salt into the bowl of stand mixer fitted with the dough hook.
• Add in the yeast and turn on the lowest speed for 30 seconds to evenly distribute.
• Add the milk, melted butter, eggs and 1/4 cup warm water (105 to 120 degrees F) to the flour mixture all at once. Beat on low- to medium-speed until the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
• Add in the sprinkles and mix until mostly distributed, about 30 more seconds.
• Remove the dough from the mixer, shape it into a ball with your hands and place it in the greased bowl, turning once to coat the entire surface.
• Spray a piece of plastic wrap with nonstick spray and cover the bowl. Let the dough rise until doubled in size. (You can also place in the refrigerator overnight.)
• For the coating: Melt the butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Add in the granulated sugar and extracts and set aside.
• Generously spray the bottom and sides of a Bundt pan. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Punch the dough down by pushing your fist into the center and then start pulling the edges into the center.
• Pull apart the dough into small pieces about an inch across and roll in your hands to create smooth, uniform dough balls. Place one layer of dough balls into the Bundt pan, then pour a third of the melted butter mixture over.
• Repeat this process twice more, or until you have used all the dough and butter mixture.
• Bake until golden brown on top, 30 to 35 minutes, covering with foil if the top starts to brown too quickly.
• For the glaze: Meanwhile, beat the cream cheese with the confectioners' sugar until smooth and light. Add the milk and vanilla and mix until fully incorporated. If the glaze seems too thick, add more milk. If the glaze seems too runny, add in a bit more confectioners' sugar. (You are looking for a gravy-like consistency, where the glaze will fall over the sides of the monkey bread but not spill off completely.)
• Remove the monkey bread from the oven and cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Invert onto a serving plate.
• Whisk the glaze briefly, then pour over the monkey bread. Garnish with more sprinkles.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In large bowl, combine muffin mixes and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, mix eggs, corn, buttermilk and 1/4 cup oil until blended. Add to dry ingredients; stir just until moistened. Fold in cheese, onion, chiles, pimiento strips and jalapeno., Brush remaining oil onto bottom of a 13x9-in. baking pan; place in oven until hot, 4-5 minutes. Pour batter into hot pan. Bake until edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 50-60 minutes. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Combine crushed sugar cones and 2 tablespoons sugar with melted butter. Using the bottom of a glass, press cone mixture onto bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Bake until set, 12-15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack., Meanwhile, sprinkle gelatin over cold water; let stand 5 minutes. Beat cream cheese and remaining sugar until smooth. Slowly beat in cream, butter flavoring and extract. In a microwave, heat gelatin on high until melted, about 10 seconds; beat into cream cheese mixture. Fold in sprinkles; transfer filling to crust. Refrigerate, covered, until set, about 3 hours., Top with additional sprinkles.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray 4 clean 13 3/4-ounce cans with cooking spray. Set aside. (If using a skillet, spray with cooking spray.) Melt the butter in skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots, and cook, stirring occasionally, over medium-low heat until soft, 3 to 4 minutes; set aside.
• Place flour, cornmeal, salt, pepper, baking powder, and baking soda in bowl. Whisk briefly to mix. Make a well; add eggs to center. Whisk eggs into dry mixture. Add buttermilk. Combine. Mixture will be thick.
• Stir in the cooked shallots and raw peppers. Melt the vegetable shortening in a small pan over medium heat. Pour hot shortening into the cornbread mixture. Stir well to combine. Spoon the batter evenly into prepared containers or skillet.
• Bake until golden brown and cornbread is pulling away from sides of cans or skillet, 30 to 40 minutes; a cake tester inserted into the center should come out clean. Transfer to a cooling rack. Let cool enough to touch; gently run a knife around rim, and unmold. Slice crosswise into 1-inch pieces. Serve warm with Dried Chile-Pepper Butter.
