Easter Snickerdoodles

Makes: 12

Prep time: 20 min

Cook time: 10 min

Ingredients

Dough

1 cup (140 grams) all-purpose flour 

½ teaspoon Club House Cream of Tartar 

½ teaspoon table salt

1 teaspoon Club House Ground Cinnamon

½ teaspoon baking soda

⅔ cup (130 grams) light brown sugar

6 tablespoons (84 grams) unsalted butter, softened

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 egg yolk

Cinnamon coating

2 tablespoons granulated sugar 

1 teaspoon Club House Ground Cinnamon 

Royal icing

4 cups (480 g) icing sugar 

3 tablespoons meringue powder

5 to 8 tablespoons water 

Club House Yellow food colouring

Club House Red food colouring

Club House Green food colouring 

Club House Blue food colouring

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking trays with parchment paper. 

2. Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, cream of tartar, baking soda, and table salt. Set aside. Cream the light brown sugar and butter together with an electric hand mixer on high until mixture turns pale and no large spots of butter remain, about 1 minute.

3. Beat oil and egg yolk into the sugar and butter until just incorporated, about 30 seconds. Any longer and the cookies’ texture could become cakey. Add flour mixture to the sugar and butter mixture and beat on low, stopping as soon as no dry spots remain. 

You should be able to roll a piece of dough easily into a ball without it sticking to your hands. Adjust with 1 to 2 tablespoons of water if it seems to dry, or 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour if it’s sticking. 

4. To make the cinnamon coating: Whisk the sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. 

5. Roll 2 tablespoons of dough into a ball and toss in the cinnamon mixture. Place on a baking tray and repeat with the rest of the dough, leaving at least 2 inches of space between each cookie with no more than 6 cookies on each baking tray so they have room to spread. 

6. Use the bottom of a glass or jar to flatten the balls slightly into ½-inch-thick rounds. 

Bake on the middle oven rack until the edges of the cookies are just starting to turn golden brown and the middles are puffy but still look a little underbaked (this is key to the cookies’ chewy texture), about 7 to 10 minutes. Rotate halfway through baking. 

7. When the cookies are done, remove the tray from the oven and lift one side up about 4 inches, then let it drop. This will flatten the centre of the cookies and create a level surface for decorating. Repeat with the other side of the baking tray, and then again with the second tray. Let the cookies cool for at least 10 minutes before trying to move them; otherwise, they’ll fall apart. 

9. To make the royal icing: Sift the icing sugar if clumpy and beat it with the meringue powder, and 5 tablespoons of water with electric hand beaters on low until everything is incorporated, about 1 minute. Turn beaters to high and continue beating for 1 minute more. Test the consistency of your icing by lifting a bit out with a spoon and dripping it back down into the bowl. It should take the drip 5 to 10 seconds to settle back into the icing and disappear. If it takes less time, your icing is too thin and you need to add more icing sugar. Any more time and it’s too thick, so adjust with a little water — a teaspoon at a time. 

10. Transfer ¼ cup icing into a small bowl and colour it orange with red and yellow food colouring until you get the desired colour. Transfer ¼ cup icing to another small bowl and colour it dark purple with blue, red, and green food colouring, adjusting to the desired colour. Set a damp paper towel over each of the small bowls so the icing doesn’t form a crust. Dye the remaining icing yellow using 1 drop of red food colouring and enough yellow until you get the desired colour. 

11. Fit a piping bag with a #10 tip and fill it with the yellow icing. Pipe a circle around the outside of a cookie, then fill the centre in. Repeat with the rest of the cookies. Fit 2 piping bags with #4 tips and fill the first bag with orange icing and the second bag with purple icing. Pipe beaks, feet, and eyes onto the cookies. 

12. Let the icing dry at least 30 minutes before serving, and 6–8 hours to completely set and harden.

Cinnamon Roll Poke Cake

PREP TIME 10 mins

COOK TIME 20 mins

COOL TIME 20 mins

TOTAL TIME 50 mins

INGREDIENTS  

For the Cake

  • 1 box white cake mix 

For the Filling

  • 5 tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup light brown sugar packed
  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2½ teaspoons clear vanilla extract
  • 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk

For the Frosting

  • 8 ounce bar cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup butter softened
  • 2 teaspoons clear vanilla flavoring 
  • 2 ½ cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons half and half

INSTRUCTIONS 

  • Preheat the oven to 350*. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with baking spray.
  • Prepare the vanilla cake as directed on the cake box.
  • Some white cake box recipes give the option of 2-3 eggs using the whole egg or only the egg whites. Either works for this recipe, so it’s personal preference.
  • These box cakes are almost always done baking several minutes before the suggested bake times on the back of the box so keep an eye on them in the oven! After baking, allow the cake to cool until it is still just slightly warm to the touch.
  • Using the end handle of a silicone spoon or spatula or a wooden handled spatula, poke holes in the cake. Spread the holes approximately a ½ inch apart. I prefer using the end of a silicone spatula and poking holes while the cake is still just slightly warm, the cake slips right off the spatula and doesn’t cause any surface cake rips.
  • In a heat safe bowl, add the 5 tablespoons of butter, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract and sweetened condensed milk. Whisk until all the ingredients are combined.
  • Place the bowl in the microwave and heat on high for 1 min, remove and stir. Heat for another minute and stir. Stir and make sure all brown sugar clumps have been removed. Return to the microwave for 30 second increments until all lumps are removed.
  • Carefully ladle the butter mixture evenly over the top of the cake slowly.
  • Using a stand mixer, or a handheld mixer and a medium size mixing bowl, on medium to medium-high speed, cream the butter and cream cheese together. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl until fully incorporated.
  • Reduce the mixer speed to low, add the clear vanilla flavoring, half and half and the powdered sugar a ½ cup at a time. Don’t rush this process. Return the mixer speed to medium and continue mixing until the frosting is smooth and slightly fluffy.
  • Spoon all of the frosting onto the cake and smooth it out evenly with a silicone spatula or an offset frosting knife. Cake is ready to serve immediately or is also delicious chilled with some ice cream.

Easter Egg Tiffin

MAKES:36 servings

PREP TIME:0 hours 35 mins

COOK TIME:0 hours 30 mins

TOTAL TIME:1 hour 5 mins

Ingredients

115 g unsalted butter, plus extra to grease

100 g pecans

397 g tin condensed milk

150 ml whole milk

425 g light brown soft sugar

1 tsp. vanilla bean paste

1/2 tsp. flaked sea salt

150 g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids), chopped

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan) mark 4 and lightly grease and line a 20.5cm square tin with baking parchment. Spread the pecans out on a separate baking tray and toast in the oven for 8min, or until golden and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
  • Mix the condensed milk, whole milk, sugar, butter and vanilla in a large pan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Turn up the heat a little and bubble, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 113-115˚C on a sugar thermometer – about 15min.
  • Set pan aside for 5min. Meanwhile roughly chop the pecans.
  • Add the salt to the pan and beat using a handheld electric whisk on medium speed for 5-6min, or until the mixture has thickened and is starting to come away from the sides of the pan. Alternatively, beat with a wooden spoon for 8-10min.
  • Stir in the chopped pecans. Scrape mixture into the lined tin, spreading to level. Leave to cool completely at room temperature, or in the fridge. 
  • Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Meanwhile transfer the fudge to a board and trim the edges to neaten. Cut into 36 squares, each roughly 3 x 3cm.
  • Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Dip each square into the melted chocolate to 1/2 coat. Leave to set on the lined sheet at room temperature, or chill briefly if needed. Serve.

  • 9 Bunny Peeps 9-12 peeps
  • 20-25 mini candy eggs Cadbury, M&M, or Hershey’s eggs

Instructions

  • Add Oreos (filling included) to a food processor and blend until they reach a fine crumb. You can also place them in a large zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
  • Set aside 1/3 (around 9-10 cookies worth) of the Oreo mixture for the top of the cake. Press the remaining Oreo crumbs evenly into the bottom of a 13×9 pan.
  • With a hand mixer, combine the butter and cream cheese, beating until smooth and creamy, about 25-45 seconds.
  • Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing to combine on low speed.
  • Fold the cool whip into the cream cheese mixture with a rubber spatula.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and instant vanilla pudding until smooth and the mixture begins to slightly thicken. Allow the mixture to set in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.
  • Fold the cream cheese mixture into the pudding mixture.
  • Pour over the Oreo crust, spreading gently to evenly distribute.
  • Add the remaining Oreo crumbs evenly on top of the dessert.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at minimum 4 hours or overnight.
  • For the topping, mix the shredded coconut with green food coloring to create “grass”. Sprinkle on top of cake.
  • Gently place the Peeps on top of the cake, pressing down slightly to make sure they stick up right.
  • Scatter chocolate eggs near the peeps and throughout any empty spaces.

Expert Tips & FAQs

  • Pop the dessert into the freezer for about an hour before serving for nice clean slices.
  • Switch up the flavor of the pudding to your liking. Chocolate, white chocolate, cheesecake, and even butterscotch pudding are all great options. Sugar-free instant pudding will work just fine as well in this cake.
  • It is truly up to you on how thick you’d like the crust and the top coat of Oreo crumbs to be. There is no wrong way, so eyeball it to your liking. We have made the layers both thin and thick, and it’s delicious either way! The only thing to note is that you’ll want the crust to be a bit thicker than the top coat so the base is fairly sturdy when removing a slice from the pan.

Grain Free Low Carb Crepe Batter

INGREDIENTS 

INSTRUCTIONS 

Make The Crepe Batter

  • Mix all ingredients in a blender to form the batter. Let it rest for at least 1 hour to thicken.
  • Pre-heat your pan and pour a little less than 1/4 cup batter into the heated pan. I use a 10″ non stick ceramic skillet.  It’s important to have the right heat, I usually set the stove knob between 3 and 4 when cooking crepes. 
  • As you pour, quickly tilt the pan in all directions to spread a thin layer of batter across the bottom. 
  • Cook about one to two minutes until the edges start browning, flip and cook for another 20 seconds.
  • After you’re done stacking crepes, cover them with a plastic wrap or clean towel to seal the moisture.
  • The longer they stay covered the softer and more flexible they get.
