"Rockin' Recipes" For Stonefest -
07-01-2010, 08:56 AM
I am going with Mistress Cookie's excellent idea for a themed Pie and Bakery Stand for Stonefest 2010.
Her imagination works wonders sometimes, and she came up with a great idea of everything resembling rocks and stones (as much as they can as we don't want our bakery treats being as heavy as rocks of course )
As time is a wastin' I thought I would share a few recipes I was considering, so that we don't have pesky double-ups, as there is nothing worse!!
Is it too much to request that for this specific event, only STONE fruits are used in pie making, or at least something with a sizable pit? That does at least give the option to use Apricot, Plum, Nectarine, Peach and also, a standard favorite; Cherry.
Anyway, I will leave you gals to fight over who does what pie, as I have my mind set on Rock Cakes and Cherry-Marble Cake.
Admittedly, I have had multiple requests for my cherry pie, but I must stand firm and say no.
Here are my recipes should anyone want to make them at a later time.
Even if I say so myself, these are certainly "rockin' recipes"
Rock Cakes:
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
115g unsalted butter
115g sultanas
50g mixed peel
75g caster sugar
Grated zest of 1 orange
2 eggs
Method:
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Sift flour and baking powder into a large bowl, then rub in the butter until it resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in fruit, sugar and zest. Add eggs, stirring together, until you have a stiff dough.
Place walnut-sized mounds of the mixture on a greased baking tray, leaving space for spreading between each one. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
---------------
Cherry - Choc Marble Cake
Ingredients
2 ounces (55 grams) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 Cup Pitted and diced cherries.
1 tablespoon brewed coffee or espresso
2 1/4 cups cake flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups (250 grams) granulated white sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup sour cream
1/3 cup (80 ml) milk
Method:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) and place rack in center of oven. Butter, or spray with a non stick spray, a 10 inch (25 cm) bundt or tube pan.
In a stainless steel bowl, over a saucepan of simmering water, melt the semisweet chocolate with the coffee. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a separate bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the butter until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 5 minutes). Add beaten eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract and sour cream.
With the mixer on low speed alternately add the flour mixture and the milk to the batter, in three additions, beginning and ending with the flour.
After preparing the batter, pour 1/3 of the batter into two other separate bowls. Stir the melted chocolate into one half of the batter, mixing well. Add cherries to another and fold through. Place the batter into the prepared pan by alternating spoons of vanilla batter, cherry and chocolate batter. Then, with the end of a wooden spoon, gently draw swirls through the batter to marbleize it. Don't over mix or you won't have that wonderful marble affect.
Bake for about 50 - 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for about 10 minutes before removing the cake from the pan to cool completely. Serve warm or at room temperature. This cake will keep for a couple of days at room temperature or it can be frozen.
^--As you can see, I prefer to use my bundt pan for this.
Thank you for your time, Sisters.
YIC,
Sister Phebe.

When I was a child I added water to my shortbread because I thought it was too dry. That would make perfect little rocks for the party.

Oh what a great thread Mrs Wintersnow.
I know that Daddy has often mentioned catching stone fish when he goes fishing.
But a google of recipes only came up with hash cookies.
I am not sure if they are the same thing so will leave that open to other Ladies of Landover to let me know.
2 Chronicles 7:14
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land Australia.

Good Morning Sister Charli,
I just hope your father is not stepping on those stonefish. I have heard they can cause quite an "ouch".
Onto those Hash Cookies. I have never heard of them, nor made them myself but perhaps they are a potato cookie of sorts? Like a Hash Brown?

Yes I will be there. I'm just transferring planes in Minneapolis right now.
Stone Fruit Cobbler
However many peaches, plums and apricots you need to use up, cut into slices
4 1-inch slices of brioche, cubed (about half of a large loaf)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1 egg, beaten
Ground ginger, to taste
Place the fruit in the bottom of a round baking dish, toss them with as much ginger as you like, and then layer the brioche cubes over them. Mix the melted butter with the sugar and flour and then add the beaten egg and mix well. Pour the sugar mixture over the brioche cubes. Bake at 350 F for about 40 minutes.
Oh and thank you for letting me stay with you. I'm a little upset over this thing with the house and will probably need a shoulder to cry on.
Would people in the community be interested in a big pot of "stone soup" (it's from the sharing story, everyone brings one ingredient for the soup). There's also 'stone crab' although I've never had it.

Charli,
Never eat Hash Cookies. They are food of hippies. Hash cookies have many strange side effects, the most noticeable is growth of facial hair. Look at these women who eat hash cookies.
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth
Proverbs 19:25 Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.
Ezekiel 16:14 And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord GOD.
Proverbs 6:25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.
Genesis 24:16 And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
Song of Solomon 1:15 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes.

Mrs. Wintersnow there is no hope for that one. This is the fate of Muslim women after many generations of eating hash cookies. No wonder they are forced to wear the veil.

I'm so thrilled we're all on the same page with this! Stonefest 2010.........Wooo Wooo ! ! !
Here's a delicious recipe that's actually quick and easy, too. Needless to say...one of my favorites
(NOTE: These cook up as golden brown triangles, sort of a cross between a biscuit and a scone, and they look a bit like big lumps of terra cotta. Add some crushed walnuts for extra weight in throwing.)
Sweet Potato Biscuits
Bake the biscuits immediately after cutting them; letting them stand for any length of time can decrease the leavening power and thereby prevent the biscuits from rising properly in the oven.
- 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus ¼ cup for dusting the work surface
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 (15 oz.) can sweet potatoes in light syrup, drained
- ¼ cup packed dark brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
- ¾ cup heavy cream
1.) Adjust oven rack to the middle position and heat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2.) Whisk together 2 cups flour, the baking powder, and the salt in a large bowl.
3.) Mash the sweet potatoes with a fork or a potato masher in a microwave-safe bowl. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg and stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to combine. Microwave on high power until the sweet potatoes are warmed through and the sugar is completely dissolved, 2 ½ to 3 minutes. Stir to combine, add the cream, and whisk until somewhat smooth (there will be a few lumps) and homogenous in color.
4.) Add the sweet potato mixture to the dry ingredients and use a rubber spatula to combine. Transfer the dough to a work surface dusted with the remaining ¼ cup flour. Gently kneed the dough by hand until it comes together (it will be sticky), about 1 minute.
5.) With wet hands, roll the dough into a ball, then pat, flatten and shape into an 8-inch circle. Cut the dough into 8 wedges, place on the paper lined baking sheet.
6.) Bake until the biscuits are light brown, 22 to 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Serve warm.

Although I am unfortunately attending Stonefest, the pies I baked today gave me an idea to share with you ladies.
Above is a picture of the mini pies I have baked today. Instead of the regular size you will bake them in a muffin pan. I used a 24cup mini muffin pan, making them into bite size, which will likely be perfect to throw as stones!
Praise Jesus
I hope you all have a great time at the Fest

Gosh Sister Sylvia!
What a fabulous idea!! I certainly wish you were coming along too my friend, but if you would allow me, I would be more than happy to bake such tiny pies in your honor!
They do look like they have a nice egg-washed and flaky pastry top rather than a shortcrust? Does that help them not seize up when baked in such a tiny fashion?
Gee I don't know why but for some reason I am reminded of an old, funny family anecdote right now. My grandmother, Bless her, was a wonderful baker, pies, cakes..you name it... she could cook it..except for one thing. She had issues with scones. (yes English family background ). Her scones were like hockey-pucks. I remember one day when she had tried yet again to get them right and my grandfather, fed up with her failing at it yet again, pelted one of them at her and it hit her in the head. She fell to the floor and was unconscious for a little while. On waking she could not remember the recipe or too much of anything else, truth be told. I am not sure why.
Oh good times indeed!
Anyway, I just mentioned that as if I could have mastered HER way of cooking them, they too would have been great make-shift stones of their own, should we happen to run out.
YIC,
Mrs.P.Wintersnow

Dear Sister Phebe,
I will be very honored if you will bake them for the StoneFest! It will be though as I have been there with you.
Here is the recipe for this dough:
4 cups of flour
2 cups of margarine or shortening
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon of sugar
a pinch of salt
Combine the flour sugar and salt and add the margarine/shortening little by little. Next combine the egg yolks and work the dough until it is uniform and not sticking to your hands anymore.
Once the filling is added, close the mini pie with dough and brush them with egg yolk so it will turn golden when ready.
Let me know how it turned out -- save one or two for tasting before the throwing starts!

You're not coming???
I was so looking forward to a walk with you and Sister Phebe down to a private spot by the river where we could all witness to each other and quote scriptures that most move the Holy Spirit within us.
You will be missed Sister Sylvia! Perhaps next year?
Yours in Him!

Oh Brother Rubicon -- If I may call you Brother, thank you for your kind words, what a gentleman you are.
I will not be able to come this year, but surely will plan on coming next year, that we may be walking together, quoting scripture, praising Jesus.
Yours in Christ

Bless you Sister in Christ!
I look forward to next year when we can all come together for the Stonefest! Perhaps, in the next year, you can witness to other women to serve Him and bring them along?
In His Steadfast and Saving Grace!
