FB Source: Barbi Cooper

Ingredients:

Cinnamon Rolls:

3 1/2 cups warm water
1 cup oil
3/4 cup sugar
6 tbsp yeast
1 tbsp salt
3 eggs beaten
10 1/2 cups flour
1 cube butter

1 cup sugar

1 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup cinnamon

Walnuts (or Pecans)

Icing:
4 cups powdered sugar
1 tbsp vanilla
Evaporated milk-enough to make syrupy

Directions:

Cinnamon Rolls:

1. In a *Bosch mixer, mix warm water, oil, sugar and yeast and rest for 15 minutes.
2. Add salt, eggs, and 10 1/2 cups flour, until it pulls away from the bowl.
3. Roll out onto floured surface to a 1/2" thick rectangle. 
4. Melt butter and brush it over the entire surface. 
5. Mix together sugar and brown sugar. To this I add about 1/4 cup cinnamon but you can add as much or little as you like.Sprinkle over buttered dough. 
6. Add walnuts or pecans, if desired.
7. Roll long ways. Pinch edge. Cut to desired thickness. Place on greased cookie sheet 1" apart.
8. Allow cinnamon rolls to rise until doubled, approx 30-45 minutes, depending on the warmth of the area.
9. Bake in 400F oven for 12 min. 

Icing:

• Combine Icing ingredients and drizzle over hot rolls.

* Stacie says: "Using a Bosch mixer eliminates the need for that initial rising of your dough. If you use a different mixer, or mix by hand, be sure to allow the dough to rise until doubled before rolling out the dough. Continue following the rest of the recipe as noted."

2. Preheat oven to 450°F. Roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness, and cut into 3 1/2-inch by 7-inch pieces. Each dough round should yield 4 pieces. Lightly brush edges of dough squares with egg and spoon 1 tablespoon jam on one side of dough within egg-basted edges. Fold dough in half and crimp edges with fingers and then press down edges of dough, about 1/4 inches, with the tines of fork.
3. Place hand pies on baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush tops with egg wash and bake for 15 minutes or until crust is golden. Remove from oven and allow cooling.
4. While hand pies are resting, mix sugar glaze by adding powdered sugar, milk and vanilla to medium-sized bowl and whisk to mix well. If mixture is too thick, add more milk, 1/4 teaspoon at a time, to thin.
5. When hand pies are cooled, drizzle the tips with sugar glaze and serve.

These Frosted Berry Hand Pies make for a perfectly dunkable after school treat for my soon to be pre-teen. She likes to help put her stamp on the process by folding and crimping the edges of her pies. The simple, buttery crust is the perfect package for the jammy insides.

Brown Butter Salted Caramel Snickerdoodles

ORIGINAL Source: The Recipe Critic

Ingredients:

2½ cups all-purpose Gold Medal flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup unsalted butter, sliced
1¼ cup dark brown sugar
½ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon plain Greek yogurt
1 cup caramel squares, cut into ¼’s
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon coarse sea salt

Directions:

1. In a medium sized bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, cream of tarter, cinnamon, and set aside.
2. To brown the butter, heat a medium saucepan to medium high heat. Add the sliced butter, whisking frequently. You will notice the butter starting to become frothy on the top and brown specks will start to form along the bottom. You have to watch it closely because the turn happens quickly and you don’t want it to burn. You will start to smell a nutty aroma and once it turns to a brown color, remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
3. While the butter is cooling, cut the caramel squares into quarters.
4. In a stand mixer, combine the brown butter and brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar. (The remaining ¼ cup sugar will be used for rolling in the cookies). Mix until blended and smooth.
5. Beat in egg, yolk, vanilla and yogurt and mix until combined. Slowly add the dry ingredients until combined.
6. Form the dough into a ball and cover with plastic. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
7. Once you are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Measure about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball. Flatten the ball and place 1-2 caramel squares inside, wrap the cookie dough over the caramel and roll back into a ball. Make sure it is completely covered so that the caramel won’t stick to the pan.
8. Mix ¼ cup sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and roll each cookie in the mixture. Place cookies on a parchment lined cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt. (I used coarse sea salt)
9. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges turn lightly brown. The centers will be soft. Allow to cook for 2-3 minutes, and transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

Recipe Adapted from Two Peas and their Pod

Braided Nutella Bread

ORIGINAL Source: Goods Home Design

Ingredients:
2 1/2 C all purpose flour
1/2 tsp yeast
1 C water
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp sugar
some Nutella
cornmeal
one egg

Directions:

1. Start by dissolving yeast with a 1/4 cup water in a small bowl. Take another bowl, and while you let the yeast rest for 10 minutes, mix in – with the use of a stand mixer – the appropriate amount of flour, salt, and sugar.
2. Add the yeast and mix at a low speed. Smoothly turn the speed to medium and keep turning for 7 minutes.
3. Get another bowl and lightly oil it and place the dough you recently made in there. Cover it with a plastic wrap and in about an hour of sitting in a warm place it will double in size.
4. Roll some of the dough in order to make a circle. Careful you leave enough because you’ll have to make another circle in a few minutes. 
5. Take the Nutella (be careful to take it out the fridge for a while so it would be easy to spread; you could also microwave it for 30 seconds to be sure) and pour an even layer on the surface, but leaving half an inch of margin of dough all around.
6. The next step is to place another roll off dough (Nutella free) on top. 
7. Afterward, place it on a parchment-lined or silicon-lined baking sheet. It’s advised you sprinkle the sheet beforehand with cornmeal. 
8. Use a knife to cut the dough down the middle, but keeping one end intact. Look at the image for guideline. 
9. By turning the cut side toward the top, twist the ends of the dough overtop each other. Do this for every cut you made. 
10. For the next 20 minutes, let your future bread sit in a dry place, but make sure you cover it with plastic wrap. In the meantime, prepare the oven. Set it to 350°F. 
11. Before placing the dough in, brush it with some egg wash. 
12. Then, bake at this temperature for about 20 minutes. 
13. To get that lightly brown look and taste on top, raise to 425°F and bake for another 5-7 minutes.

It’s done! Let it cool before serving.

Oreo Cream Cheese Cookies

FB Source: Yummy Tasty Recipes

Ingredients:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
6 oz cream cheese, room temperature
2 cups granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup mini dark chocolate chips
2 cups Oreo crumbles

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375, line a cookie sheet with parchment. I have found that parchment keeps the cookies from spreading too much, as they tend to do on a greased pan or a silpat.
2. In the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed, cream together butter and cream cheese until thoroughly combined.
3. Add sugar and vanilla, mix well.
4. Add flour one cup at a time and mix on low just until combined. Stir in chocolate chips with a rubber spatula.
5. Pour Oreo crumbles into a bowl. Scoop dough out and roll into roughly 1.5" balls, then roll in cookie crumbles, coating thoroughly. Be sure to cover the dough balls really well in crumbs, as this is what holds the cookie together while baking. Space cookies about 1-2" apart on sheet. Bake on center rack about 14-15 minutes and allow to cool on sheet several minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely.
