femkes_folliesI suffered another Fial on the banket, but I'm getting closer. I do, however, now need more almonds. So I'll take another run at it this weekend.
Since I baked, and then had nothing to eat, I had to stir up something else. (not counting the Provolone and Black Pepper popovers and ham with cheese sauce we had for lunch - it was leftovers day)
I am now in the process of trying to reconstruct some of the comfort foods of my childhood for my girls, in case you were curious.
Butterscotch Dumplings
2 c water
1 c brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbsp butter
1 tsp vanilla
Place water, sugar, salt, and butter into a medium saucepan, bring to a boil to dissolve sugar and set aside, keeping warm. Stir in vanilla
1/3 c. vanilla sugar
1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbsp butter
1 tsp xanthan gum
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 1/2 c flour
1/2 c milk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9" square baking pan with nonstick spray.
In a medium bowl, cream together sugar, salt, and butter. Stir in xanthan gum and baking powder. Add the flour and milk, alternately in several additions, until a stiff but sticky dough is formed. You may need a little more or less milk.
Pour the syrup into the pan. Drop the dough into the syrup by spoonfuls (my cookie dough disher worked VERY well). Bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is faintly golden. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
1/3 cup
