Irish Cream Gingersnaps Recipes

Steps:

• In a blender, combine heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, Irish whiskey, instant coffee, chocolate syrup, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Blend on high for 20 to 30 seconds. Store in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator. Shake well before serving.

Steps:

• Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and spices in a bowl; stir well to mix. In the bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together on medium speed the butter and sugar for about 5 minutes until very light, fluffy and whitened. Add the egg and continue beating until smooth. Lower speed and beat in half the dry ingredients, then the molasses. Stop the mixer and scrape down bowl and beater. Beat in the remaining dry ingredients. Remove bowl from mixer and use a large rubber spatula to finish mixing the dough. Use a small ice cream scoop to scoop out 1-inch diameter pieces of dough. Roll into balls between the palms of your the hands, then roll in the sugar. Place the balls of dough on the prepared pans leaving about 3 inches all around each, to allow for spreading. Bake the cookies for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until they have spread, the surface has crackled, and they are firm to the touch. Slide the papers from the pans to racks. Store the cooled cookies between sheets of parchment or waxed paper in a tin or platic container witha tight-fitting cover.

Steps:

• Line the ramekins with plastic wrap creating a shell and leaving long flaps to cover the ramekins later. In a food processer, pulse gingersnap cookies with melted butter until small crumbs form for the crust. Press half the cookie crumb mixture, dividing evenly, firmly into the bottom of each ramekin. Reserve the other half of the crumb mixture for the topping.
• In a large bowl, whisk heavy cream with sugar until soft peaks form. In a separate large bowl, add the espresso powder and condensed milk and blend until espresso powder is dissolved. Whisk in Irish cream then fold in whipped cream. Pour evenly into the ramekins. Top with remaining gingersnap crumbs and cover with the extra plastic wrap, pressing to compact mixture. Freeze until set, about 5 hours. To serve, remove plastic wrap from top and then gently turn ramekins over to release dessert onto a serving plate. Gently remove plastic wrap.

Steps:

• Thoroughly mix the marmalade and ground ginger.
• Put the whiskey, marmalade mix, lemon (or orange) rind and sugar in a bowl.
• Stir well, then leave the mixture to stand for at least 15 minutes.
• Stir the cream slowly into the whisky mixture until evenly blended, then beat with an electric or rotary beater until thick.
• Beat the egg whites until stiff, and then fold into the cream mixture until well blended.
• Spoon into 4 individual wine glasses or sundae dishes, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Serve chilled, with brandy snaps or ginger snaps (cookies).

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat together molasses, brown sugar and butter until mixture is smooth.
• Add cream, ginger, cinnamon, flour, baking powder, salt (if using).
• Continue beating until dough is stiff.
• Chill dough.
• Roll out small portions of dough to 1/4-inch thickness.
• Cut into 3-inch rounds (or if you prefer other shapes).
• Bake in 375-degree F oven for 8-10 minutes.
• Be careful--do not overbrown these cookies.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
• Combine dry ingredients and set aside.
• In a large bowl beat butter till soft, gradually add sugar.
• Beat in egg and molasses.
• Stir in flour mixture.
• Roll into balls, then roll in sugar.
• Bake 10- 12 minutes.
• Cooking time depends on the size of cookie.
• I have small children so I make them quite small and the baking time decreases.
• The yield is not correct- It depends on the size of the cookie- I do not know the amount it will make?
