Valentine’s Petit Fours

Erin (and sometimes The Todd) — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 15:20:41 +0000

Oh yeah. You heard me. I’m going hardcore Bakerella for V-day this year. My beautiful stepdaughter Katie is an amazing baker, so I’m making her help me. We will tackle the fabled Petit Fours. Do not be afraid, join me in this Master Bakerella adventure.

Valentine’s Day Petit Fours

Ingredients

2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus melted butter for pans
1 pound almond paste
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure almond extract
6 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
Pinch fine sea salt
8 cups tinted Royal Icing, recipe follows, or store bought

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Brush 3 (12 1/2 by 9-inch) rimmed baking sheets (otherwise known as quarter sheet pans) with melted butter. Line the pans with parchment paper, leaving a few inches of overhang on opposite sides. Butter the top of the parchment paper as well, then set aside.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the almond paste and sugar on medium speed until well combined, about 5 minutes. Add the almond extract. Roughly cut the room temperature butter into pats and gradually add to the almond paste-sugar mixture. Beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl if needed. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating to combine after each addition. Add the flour and salt and beat until just combined.

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared baking sheets, about 2 1/4 cups each sheet, smoothing the batter out with an offset spatula. Gently tap the baking sheet on the table to remove any air pockets in the batter. Air pockets will cause holes in the baked cake and give a ragged look to the finished product. Bake until just set, but not browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Give the baking sheets a turn halfway through baking, after about 8 minutes, for even baking, if needed, but don’t worry too much because we’re covering the cakes. Test with a toothpick or skewer and if clean, remove from the oven and transfer to wire racks to cool.

To make the jam easier to spread and to prevent tearing the cake, puree the raspberry jam in a food processor. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Turn 1 cake layer out onto the lined baking sheet. Spread half of the raspberry jam in an even layer over the cake. Carefully flip the cake out of the baking sheet and top with a second cake layer. Spread with the remaining jam. Carefully flip the final layer out of the baking sheet and top the cake. Place a piece of parchment paper over the final layer and top with a second baking sheet. Weigh down with 2 large (28-ounce) cans. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.

Remove the cake from the refrigerator and cut into 1-inch squares. Place onto a wire racks over at least 2 baking sheets, leaving at least 1-inch between each cake piece.

Place each of the tinted royals icings in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, with the bottom of the bowl not touching the water, until pourable. You should have about 8 cups total. You’ll be using about 1 heaping tablespoon icing on each. Carefully place a cut cake on a chocolate fork/dipper (or a small fork). Place the cake over the icing and spoon the icing onto the cake. If the cake drops into the icing, carefully pick it up with your spoon and place back onto your fork/dipper. Place back onto the wire rack using another dipper or fork to slide onto the wire rack. Top with decorative dragees, as desired. Repeat with the remaining icing and cakes. Alternately, for each tinted frosting, set 3 cooling racks over baking sheets and divide the cut cake pieces evenly among the racks. Pour the tinted frosting slowly over the cake pieces. If you need extra frosting, just remove the cooling rack, scrape the excess frosting from the baking sheet, melt or microwave until pourable and touch up any area that the frosting didn’t coat the first time. Let stand until set, about 30 minutes at room temperature or cover and place in the refrigerator for up to 1 week until ready to serve.

Royal Icing:

6 tablespoons corn syrup
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon almond extract
17 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar (about 5 boxes)
Pink food coloring

In a large heatproof bowl, combine 1 1/4 cups plus 1 tablespoon water, corn syrup and almond extract. Once incorporated, slowly whisk in the sugar until fully combined. Alternately, slowly mix together in a stand mixer and transfer to a heatproof bowl prior to icing cakes.

(Editor’s note: I pulled this from the Food Network with some minor alterations.)

Wait. What?

Erin (and sometimes The Todd) — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 16:30:27 +0000

I had my “once a year, low-expectation” lunch with three of my favorite girlfriends yesterday. Now that we’re all staggering under a massive workload and demanding children, we’re proud of ourselves if we get face-to-face once every 365 days.

I was showing off pictures of my adorable baby Zoe when Carolyn chirped, “oh, that’s so sweet! And just think, you’ll be having her Period Party before you know it!”

“Ah…her what?”

My 3 best friends since, like, junior high school looked at me blankly.

“Her Period Party.” Clarified Alex, “where you celebrate the joy of her First Menstruation.”

My mouth gaped open like a carp’s and I could only hope I’d swallowed the last of my salad before my friend’s little revelation.

“Period Party? For getting her period? Seriously?”

My girlies nodded gravely and I shut my mouth with an audible snap.

People, come ON. When I started my cycle at the age of 14, my mom chucked a box of pads at me and said dryly, “congratulations, you’re a woman.” When did we graduate to a cake and party streamers for something that’s usually celebrated with a speedy trip through the self-checkout with an armload of feminine hygiene products? And who am I supposed to invite to Zoe’s theoretical Period Party? Classmates? Nana? Uncle Kelly? I know that at 14 if my mother had invited a group of people over for cake and a celebration of my awkward introduction to tampons I would have made my way to the I-15 freeway, laid down on the cement and prayed for the next 18 wheeler to crush me into a paste. What am I missing, here?

Erin (and sometimes The Todd) — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 15:24:09 +0000

The new Disney On Ice–your Toy Story characters!–hits the Delta Center in SLC March 7-11. Pick up a FREE tickets today (Monday, 1.23) by doing this: head for the Delta Center (301 West South Temple) between 11am and noon. The first 500 people to bring a new children’s boook get a free Disney On Ice ticket in return. It’s one ticket per book, so I’d suggest grabbing a couple of friends and extra books to get enough tickets for the whole family. The books go to low-income families and preschools throughout Salt Lake City. You get to see Disney On Ice free AND do a good deed at the same time. Nice, eh?

(Editor’s note: for the well-meaning who will attempt to correct me with the new name for Delta Center–don’t bother. I’m never going to publicize a company that saturates our state with high-level nuclear waste.)

So we just got back from picking up our press credentials for the Sundance Film Festival and I was still giggling a little because a French director kissed my hand and called me “vous êtes charmante, mademoiselle Erin.” Cue to the living room where poor little MacLean projectile-vomited over every piece of furniture–the boy is thorough, I’ll give him that. Nothing like spending your evening cleaning up a stomach virus while that French director is off drinking champange somewhere. Sigh…

What’s REALLY Keeping You From Your Success?

Erin (and sometimes The Todd) — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 16:44:30 +0000

The power of the subconscious has always fascinated me, because no matter what you resolve with your surface awareness, if your entire mind, heart and soul aren’t in agreement, it’s just not gonna happen.

We’re hosting a FREE event at the B98.7 studios Thursday (1.19.12) to help you defeat the “dark underbelly” of your subconscious. Paul Smith (aka Mind Over Matter Hypnotherapy) is a gifted hypnotherapist who’s going to work through the basics of hypnotherapy, and do a session with all of us on reducing stress and anxiety. Imagine being able to sleep through the entire night…no more panic attacks! Need to lost weight? Quit smoking? Join us and talk to Paul about it.

(Editor’s note: I’m a huge believer in the benefits of hypnotherapy–I was really nervous before my first plane flight when I was a little girl. My father–the shrink–hypnotised me to be “so relaxed that you’ll fall asleep before the wheels leave the tarmac.” It took me 21 YEARS to be able to stay awake on a flight!)

We’ll have dinner, massage therapists and lots of goodies to give away. I’m excited for all of us to work through this together–it’s going to be a very healing night! We’re located at 434 West Bearcat Drive (2300 South) in Salt Lake City, and “Mind Over Matter” will run from 6-9pm. Find more information here. Join us! It’s going to be an amazing night…

Lovely Lemon Bread

Erin (and sometimes The Todd) — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 15:33:32 +0000

Lovely Lemon Bread

2/3 cup butter, softened

1 1/2 cups sugar

3 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons freshly grated lemon zest

4 eggs

1/4 teaspoon vanilla

3 cups flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

1 cup milk

2 cups diced, dried cranberries or fresh or frozen blueberries, raspberries, blackberries – go wild!

Glaze:

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1/2 cup lemon juice

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat 4 mini loaf pans (or 2 regular size) with vegetable cooking spray.

In a large bowl cream the butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in the lemon juice, zest, and eggs, and vanilla until well combined.

In another bowl stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add alternately with the milk to the egg mixture, beating just until combined after each addition. Fold in berries, if using.

Divide batter among prepared pans and bake for 30-40 minutes if making mini-loaves. Remove to a wire rack, but leave in the pans.

In a small bowl combine the glaze ingredients. Pour over the hot loaves and allow to cool completely before removing from pans. Wrap tightly to store.
