Easy Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnamon Rolls are the greatest snacks, desserts, and breakfast food! In this video, I make them from scratch using my own technique and the recipe for bread dough. https://www.tyronebcookin.com/2009/05/easy-bread-dough.html 

If you would rather not make the dough, buy pizza dough balls from your local grocer.

I do not use a sweetened dough for Cinnamon Rolls because there is enough added sweetness in the filling and glaze.

Peanut Brittle! (and the secret to not breaking your teeth!)

 

We're making peanut brittle with the boys. Steph goes through the steps. The addition of the baking soda at the end creates air bubbles in the brittle. This maintains the crackly goodness of the brittle BUT keeps you from breaking your TEETH! It's DELICIOUS!

Mexican Chocolate Caramel Cookies!

 

These Mexican Chocolate Carmel Cookies are made with the caramel candy we made in our last video! Stephanie found an awesome "from scratch" cookie recipe that she modified to make it her own!

Here is the link to the cookie recipe we modified.

Thank you! #TastesBetterFromScratch

The changes are simple. When you watch the video you will see HOW and then WHEN to add them in.

• Replace the chocolate chips with 2 discs of Mexican Chocolate chopped up. 
• Add a tablespoon of instant espresso powder to your cookie dough.
• Add your caramel candy into the middle of the cookie dough. Watch our caramel candy video. If you're still not convinced to try it yourself then those little square plastic-wrapped caramels from the store will do.

Two things you need to remember to have the most success with this recipe:

1. Chill your cookie dough 2 to 3 hours before using.
2. After rounding your caramel candy into balls, chill for at least an hour. You can do this anytime and then wait till your cookie dough is chilled.

This will also help your cookie have the best structure with no caramel "blow-outs". But even if you do have some, it still tastes great!

The Perfect Cheesecake!

 

 
Looking for the perfect cheesecake recipe? This is a classic New York style cheesecake with a cookie crust and high sides. We also add some leftover "Halloween" candy! It is dense, rich, and light at the same time. But we can't take credit for the recipe we just bumbled through it for some excellent results!
