Moist Red Velvet Cake and Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting | #Spiralizerrecipes #Chocolatechipbrowniecookies #Brownieideas #Dessertrecipes #Cookingrecipes #Cupcakecakes #Deliciousdesserts #Yummysweets #Buntcakerecipeseasy #Bundtpanrecipes #Waldorfastoriaredvelvetcake #cake



Ingredients

  • Cake Ingredients:
  • (Make sure ingredients are at room temperature before you start the cooking process.)
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon fine salt
  • 2 tablespoons dutch pressed cocoa powder
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons red food coloring
  • 1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Frosting Ingredients:
  • 1 pound cream cheese , softened
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter (1 cup), softened
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 4 cups sifted confectioners' sugar

Instructions

  1. Cake Instructions:
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  3. Spray three 9 inch cake pans with baking spray. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, shift together the dry ingredients for the cake. (I usually use my blender mixing bowl for this part to decrease how many dishes I use.)
  5. In another large bowl use a whisk to mix all of the cake's wet ingredients together. These ingredients include the vegetable oil, buttermilk, eggs, food coloring, vinegar, and vanilla extract.
  6. In a standing mixer, combine both the dry and wet ingredients for the cake. Mix the batter just until the mixture is blended. Scrap sides of bowl with flat spatula to incorporate all ingredients into the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into each greased baking pan, making sure to put an even amount of the batter into each pan.
  8. Place the pans in the oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick appears clean after inserted into the cake. At about the 16 minute mark, start checking for doneness. While baking the cakes, rotate the cakes halfway during the cooking process.
  9. When the cake layers are done, let them cool completely. Once cooled, frost the cake.
  10. Frosting Instructions:
  11. Place the butter, cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla in a standing mixer bowl. Mix the ingredients for about 5 minutes on medium speed until the frosting is light and fluffy. While mixing the ingredients, occasionally scrape the sides of the bowl to ensure that all the ingredients get mixed together.
  12. After the cakes have cooled frost the cake.

  • Seasoning Mixture

  • 1/4 cup all purpose flour

  • Remaining seasoning mixture
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 8 oz. linguine
  • 2 tbsp parsley chopped
  • 1/2 cup Pasta water (reserve it)






Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine salt, Creole seasoning, paprika powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and flour. Dredge the chicken in the seasoning mixture and shake off excess. Reserve any leftover spice/flour mix for the sauce.
  2. Preheat large saute pan, add olive oil and melt butter over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken tenders until done, about 8 minutes (3-4 minutes per each side). Remove from the pan.
  3. Add 4 tablespoons of butter to the empty skillet and add remaining seasoning mixture into the butter until cook it until flour is no longer raw. Add more paprika and heavy cream into the skillet. Bring to a boiling point.
  4. Lower heat and simmer 3-4 minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning to your liking.
  5. Pasta :
  6. Boil pasta in salty water, drain, but do not rinse. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water. If you think the sauce needs thinning, add reserved pasta water to the sauce. Add it slow - as much as you would like to have according to your liking.
  7. Add cooked pasta into the sauce and stir until fully coated. Add chicken into the skillet with pasta to reheat.
  8. Serve with sauce spooned over chicken and pasta, and sprinkled with chopped parsley.

banana oatmeal muffins blender recipe | #Breakfastideashealthy #Overnightoats #Healthybreakfastrecipes #Veganbreakfast #Healthybreakfastonthego #Chiaseedpuddingalmondmilk #Brownsugarcinnamonoatmeal #Cinnamonrolloatmeal #Cinnamonoatmealrecipes #Oatmealrecipesbreakfast #Cookingrecipes #Dessertrecipes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups oats — quick cooking or old fashioned
  • 2 large very ripe bananas
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons honey*
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder — I prefer aluminum free
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Up to 1/2 cup mix-ins: chocolate chips — mini or regular, chopped dark chocolate, nuts, dried cranberries, or blueberries (fresh or frozen and rinsed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a 12-cup standard muffin tin or line with paper liners. If using liners, lightly grease them as well. Set aside.
  2. Place the all ingredients but the mix-ins in a blender or the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade: oats, bananas, eggs, Greek yogurt, honey, baking powder, baking soda, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend or process on high, stopping to scrape down and stir the ingredients once or twice as needed, until the batter is smooth and the oats have broken down almost completely, about 3 minutes. By hand, stir in the mix-ins. If the batter is warm from the appliance’s motor, the chocolate chips may melt and swirl as they are stirred. If this bothers you, let the batter cool for 10 minutes before adding them.
  3. Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each no more than three-quarters of the way to the top. Sprinkle with additional chocolate chips or nuts as desired. Bake for 15 minutes, until the tops of the muffins are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Place the pan on a wire rack and let the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes. They will deflate but still taste delicious. Remove from the pan and enjoy!

  2. Grease a square baking dish (8×8 or 9×9) and arrange the blueberries in the bottom. Top with the oat mixture. Bake for 25-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and has firmed up slightly. If you want, you can top with additional flaked coconut and return to the oven for another 5 minutes just for some decorative toasted coconut on top.
