Scones

 Source: https://www.taste.com.au/recipes/basic-scones/12d869d1-2ac9-44ae-a88d-11354729fcb5




Ingredients: 

1. Plain flour, for dusting

2. 3 cups self raising flour

3. 80g butter, chilled and cubed

4. 1-1 1/4 cups milk

5. Jam, to serve

6. Whipped cream, to serve 


Instructions: 

  • Preheat oven to 200°C. Sift self-raising flour into a large bowl.
  • Using your fingertips, rub butter into flour until mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  • Make a well in the centre. Add 1 cup of milk. Mix with a flat-bladed knife until mixture forms a soft dough, adding more milk if required. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently until smooth (don't knead dough too much or scones will be tough).
  • Lightly dust a flat baking tray with plain flour.
  • Pat dough into a 2cm-thick round. Using a 5cm (diameter) round cutter, cut out 12 rounds. Press dough together and cut out remaining 4 rounds. Place scones onto prepared baking tray, 1cm apart. Sprinkle tops with a little plain flour. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden and well risen. Transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm with jam and cream (Whipped cream, to serve).

Tisamisu

Source: https://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/easy-tiramisu/

Ingredients: 

▢357 g heavy whipping cream
▢226.8 g container mascarpone cheese ,room temperature
▢66.67 g granulated sugar
▢4 g vanilla extract
▢354.88 g cold espresso
▢45 g coffee flavored liqueur ,optional (Kahlua or DaVinci brands)
▢1 package Lady Fingers ,Savoiardi brand can be found in the cookie aisle at your local grocery store, or online
▢Cocoa powder for dusting the top

Instructions: 

1. Add whipping cream to a mixing bowl and beat on medium speed with electric mixers (or use a stand mixer). Slowly add sugar and vanilla and continue to beat until stiff peaks. Add mascarpone cheese and fold in until combined. Set aside.

2. Add coffee and liqueur to a shallow bowl. Dip the lady fingers in the coffee (Don't soak them--just quickly dip them on both sides to get them wet) and lay them in a single layer on the bottom of an 8x8'' or similar size pan. 

3. Smooth half of the mascarpone mixture over the top. Add another layer of dipped lady fingers. Smooth remaining mascarpone cream over the top.

4. Dust cocoa powder generously over the top (I use a fine mesh strainer to do this). Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours or up to overnight before serving.
