Bakity-poof!
As yet, the much-bally-hoo'd StormZOMG! has yet to materialize. We made a brief foray out. The girls got to play/run around like mad things. Then back home so Rori could nap. (She's still seepin'). John took Liesl to see Tangled again. And I got my bakin' on.
Currently there is yet another experimental bread recipe in the oven. I Fialed at the period banket again. And succeeded at GF molasses cookies. Here they is:
Great Grandma Gaston's Cry Baby Cookies
1 c. sugar
1 c. shortening
1 c. hot coffee
1 c. molasses
2 eggs
2 tsp vinegar
1 tsp lemon juice
5 3/4 c. gluten free flour (mine is a mix of rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch, and corn starch)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp ginger
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, cream together sugar and shortening. Beat in eggs, molasses, coffee, vinegar and lemon juice. In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients. Add them gradually to molasses mixture and beat well. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a baking sheet (parchment paper will make your life interesting) and bake for 12-15 minutes. Surfaces will crack slightly when done. Apply glaze while still warm.
Glaze:
2 Tbsp butter
4 c. powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla.
In a med. saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Add sugar and milk alternately until a smooth glaze forms. Stir in vanilla. Glaze cookies while still warm.
In addition, cleaning happened, including some jobs that don't get done frequently. Yeah, me. The girls even got from-scratch GF cinnamon toasted waffles for breakfast. ;-)
