Cranberry Mango Fool With Gingersnaps Recipes

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl or standing mixer cream together the butter and sugar until light. Beat in 1 egg and mix in the molasses, orange juice, and zest. Sift together the dry ingredients and stir them into the wet ingredients to make a soft, smooth dough, adding more flour if dough is too sticky. Knead the dough three times on a lightly floured board.
• Shape the dough into 3 logs, about 8-inches long, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Slice logs into thin circles, less than 1/8-inch thick. Place on lightly greased baking sheets.
• Bake cookies for about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and transfer cookies to a rack to cool.

Steps:

• Microwave the coconut oil in a large microwave-safe bowl until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the granulated sugar and molasses. The mixture should be mostly smooth; if it?s not, return to the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds and whisk again to combine. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Whisk the flour, pie spice, ginger, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the flour mixture into the coconut oil mixture until smooth, switching to a rubber spatula when the dough becomes too stiff to whisk (it will seem dry at first, but will come together).
• Scrape the dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap and roll into an 8- to 9-inch-long log. Wrap in the plastic wrap. Press the sides with a ruler to square off the log. Refrigerate, re-pressing the squared sides after about 20 minutes, until the dough is firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Unwrap the dough and slice 1/4 inch thick. Arrange the slices about 1 inch apart on the prepared pans.
• Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are firm around the edges, 18 to 22 minutes. Let cool completely on the pans.
• Make the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar and 2 teaspoons water in a small bowl. Gradually stir in up to 2 more teaspoons water until the glaze is smooth and thick. Dip half of each cookie in the glaze; return to the baking sheet and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Let set, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and grease cookie sheets. Cream the butter with the brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the molasses and egg and beat until smooth. Sift the flour with baking soda, ginger, cinnamon and cloves. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat until well blended. Pinch off a little of the dough and roll it into 1-inch balls (dough may be very moist, if so, dip hands in warm water before forming balls). Dip each ball into the granulated sugar and arrange sugar side up on prepared baking sheet approximately 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until cracked on top.

Steps:

• Heat 4 cups of the milk in a large saucepan over medium heat until steaming.
• Whisk the sugar, cornstarch and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Whisk in the egg yolks and the remaining 1/2 cup milk.
• Whisk half of the hot milk into the egg mixture until smooth, then gradually whisk the egg-milk mixture into the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture boils. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until it has thickened to a puddinglike consistency, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
• Cool slightly, stirring a few times to prevent a skin from forming. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the pudding and refrigerate until completely cooled and thickened, about 4 hours.
• Before serving, whisk the pudding vigorously until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the berries. Spoon the pudding into six to eight individual cups and top with the crushed gingersnaps.

Steps:

• With a mixer, cream together the brown sugar, butter, and salt. Add molasses and continue creaming. Combine water and baking soda in a cup. Sift together flour, ginger, and cinnamon. Add flour mixture and baking soda mixture all at once and mix until well combined. Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate until firm.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Alternatively, preheat a convection oven to 325 degrees F.
• Roll out dough on a well floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut out desired shapes with cookie cutters and arrange on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle very lightly with kosher salt and generously with raw sugar. Bake for 7 minutes, rotating the cookie sheets halfway through. Cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• Put the cranberries in a pan with 150g of the sugar. Gently heat until the sugar begins to melt, then cover and cook for 5-10 mins until the berries are soft. Mash with a potato masher and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Stir in 200ml of the cream and chill until cool.
• In a bowl, whip the remaining cream with the remaining 50g sugar until soft peaks form. Scrape onto the cranberry mixture and fold 1-2 times to very lightly marble. Spoon between 5 small bowls - the fool will marble more as you spoon into the dishes. Cover and chill for at least 2 hrs or up to 24 hrs.
• Froth the egg white with a fork. Put the extra 3 tbsp sugar on a small plate. Tip the extra cranberries for decoration into the egg white, then drop into the sugar. Shake the plate to roll and coat the berries. Repeat a few times, leaving the sugar to set for a couple of mins between each. Chill until ready to serve.
• To serve, top each fool with a few sugared cranberries and serve with Cinnamon shortbread (see 'Goes well with').

Steps:

• Mix cranberry-mango drink and grape juice in punch bowl.
• Just before serving, stir in sparkling water and apricots.

Steps:

• 1. Combine all of the ingredients in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the berries pop open, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• 2. Skim foam off the surface with a metal spoon and discard. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate, covered, for up to 3 months.

Steps:

• Place diced mango into a saucepan and stir in lemon zest, orange zest, and ginger. Pour in lemon and orange juice and mix in cinnamon stick, star anise pod, garam masala, and salt. Pour in water and sugar; stir until sugar has dissolved.
• Place saucepan over medium heat, bring just to a simmer, and reduce heat to low. Simmer until mango has softened and flavors blend, about 15 minutes.
• Pour cranberries into sauce, raise heat to medium, and cook until cranberries pop and begin to break down, about 10 minutes. Mash any unpopped berries.
• Turn off heat and drizzle 2 or 3 drops of ghost pepper hot sauce. Let cranberry sauce cool to room temperature and transfer to a serving bowl. Remove cinnamon stick and star anise pod before serving.
