Carrot and Pineapple Cake Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice 4 large eggs 2 cups granulated sugar 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 1 1/4 cup vegetable oil 2 cups peeled and grated raw carrots (4 to 6 medium carrots) 1 cup raisins 1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained 1 cup coarsely chopped pecans or walnuts Cream Cheese Frosting (see recipe below) 1 cup shredded or flaked sweetened coconut Preparation: Preheat oven to 350 F. Butter three 9-inch round cake pans. Line the bottom of the pans with parchment paper and then butter and flour the cake pans. NOTE: You can also make this into a 2-layer cake. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice; set aside. In the bowl of your electric mixer, add eggs and beat on medium-high speed until light yellow or approximately 2 minutes. Slowly add the sugar to the eggs until well mixed and fully incorporated. Add the vanilla extract and beat an additional 1 minute. Reduce the mixer speed to medium and slowly add the vegetable oil. Once all the oil is added, beat the mixture for another 1 minute. Reduce the mixer speed to medium-low and blend in the flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the grated carrots, raisins, drained pineapple, and pecans or walnuts. Divide the batter equally between the prepared cake pans. Bake approximately 40 to 50 minutes or until a long toothpick or wooden skewer, inserted in the center of the cake, comes out clean. Cake is done when the internal temperature registers approximately 205 to 209 degrees F. on your cooking thermometer. Remove from oven and let cool on wire cooling rack for approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Remove cake from pans
and place on the wire racks to finish cooling. While cake is cooling, prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting. To frost the cake, place one (1) cake layer (flat-side up) on a large cake plate. Using a knife or spatula, spread the top of the cake layer with some of the Cream Cheese Frosting. Place the second cake layer on top (flat-side up) on top of the first layer and spread frosting over the top. Place the third cake layer (rounded side up) on top of the 2nd cake layer and spread the remaining Cream Cheese Frosting on the top and sides of the cake. Using your hands, gently press the coconut on the sides of the cake. The cake can be covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated up to 4 days. Let it cool in the refrigerator about 1 hour before covering, to ensure ensure the frosting has hardened and will not stick to the plastic wrap. Makes 1 (3-layer) cake. Cream Cheese Frosting: 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature 6 tablespoons butter, room temperature 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract* 2 1/2 to 3 cups powdered (confectioner s) sugar * For additional pineapple flavor, substitute some of the pineapple juice, that was drained off, for the vanilla extract. In a bowl, combine cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until smooth. Add powdered sugar and beat until smooth and creamy! Snackle Recipe Snackle Recipe for salty fillings 1 egg

Unwrap thawed phyllo dough and cover it with a slightly moist clean kitchen towel. Phyllo dries out very quickly, so keeping it covered while you re working is essential. 5. Place one sheet of phyllo dough on your work surface carefully. Using a pastry brush, brush melted butter on one half of the phyllo and fold the other half on top. The butter works like a glue and holds the sides together. Pipe a strip of Nutella down one side of the dough, leaving ½ inch at the top and the bottom. Fold

Refrigerate uncovered until cool, about 3 hours. Then cover and chill overnight. 10. Prepare Lemon Curd topping: 11. Zest the lemons. Juice the lemons. In a bowl mix together the egg yolks and sugar until smooth.stir in lemon juice and zest. In a saucepan, over medium heat, bring to a simmer. Continue cooking, stirring constantly until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Stir in the butter 1 Tbsp. at a time. Cover lemon curd with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. 12. The next day, wrap a warm towel around spring form pan to release the cake. Gently remove pan sides. 13. Top with lemon curd to taste. You don t have to use all of the lemon curd for the topping I usually have some lemon curd leftover and serve a dollop with each slice of cake). 14. Refrigerate until ready to serve (see floss tip below).
Additional Tips 1. This cake needs to be refrigerated overnight, plan to make the cake the day before you want to serve it. 2. Right before serving, pre-slice the cake into 8 pieces by using a long string of unflavored dental floss cutting this ultra-moist cake with a knife is very messy! Serve and enjoy! Apple Roses Ingredients: to make 6 roses 1 frozen puff pastry sheet, thawed 2 red organic apples (I used red delicious) half lemon, juice 1 tablespoon of flour, to sprinkle the counter 3 tablespoons of apricot preserve cinnamon (optional) powder sugar for decorating (optional) Preparation time: about 20 minutes to prepare, plus 45 minutes to bake Directions: 1. Thaw the puff pastry if you haven t done so yet. It should
take about 20-30 minutes. 2. Prepare a bowl with some water and the lemon juice. Cut the apples in half, remove the core and cut the apples in paper thin slices, as shown in my picture. Leave the peel so it will give the red color to your roses. Right away, place the sliced apples in the bowl with lemon and water, so that they won t change color. 3. Microwave the apples in the bowl, for about 3 minutes, to make them slightly softer. If you prefer, you can also simmer the apple slices in the water in a small pan (on the stove).
4. Unwrap the puff pastry over a clean and lightly floured counter. Using a rolling pin stretch the dough a little, trying to keep it in a rectangular shape. Cut the dough in 6 strips. These are about 2 in x 9 in (5 cm x 22 cm). 5. In a bowl, place three tablespoons of apricot preserve with two tablespoons of water. Microwave for about one minute, so that the preserve will be easier to spread. Spread the preserve on the dough.
6. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Drain the apples. 7. Place the apples on the dough, as shown in my picture. Sprinkle with cinnamon if you d like. 8. Fold up the bottom part of the dough.
9. Carefully roll, seal the edge, and place in a silicone muffin cup. No need to grease the muffin mold if it s silicone. Otherwise, make sure to grease it.
10. Do the same for all 6 roses. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 40-45 minutes, until fully cooked. NOTE: make sure the pastry is fully cooked on the inside before removing the roses from the oven! If after 30 minutes the apples on top look fully cooked, move the pan to a lower rack in the oven, and wait for 10-15 more minutes to avoid undercooking the puff pastry. Sprinkle with powder sugar and enjoy!
