Strawberry lime scones Ingredients
Scones
1 1/2 cups Betty Crocker™ All-Purpose Gluten Free Rice Flour Blend cup granulated sugar1/3
2 teaspoons gluten-free baking powder 1 teaspoon grated lime peel 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup cold butter, cut in small pieces 3/4 cup chopped fresh strawberries 1 cup whipping cream Lime Glaze
3/4 cup powdered sugar 1 to 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
Directions 1Heat oven to 425°F. 2In medium bowl, stir together flour blend, granulated sugar, baking powder, lime peel, xanthan gum and salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through mixture in opposite directions), until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Gently stir in strawberries. Stir in whipping cream just until moistened. 3On surface lightly sprinkled with flour blend, knead mixture 5 to 7 times to form dough. Pat into 3/4-inch circle. Cut dough into 8 wedges. Place wedges on ungreased cookie sheet. 4Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand on cookie sheet 1 minute. Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. In small bowl, mix powdered sugar and lime juice until thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle over warm scones. Serve warm. Expert Tips Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change. The cream in the recipe contributes part of the essential fat that makes scones so tender and delectable. For best results, do not substitute a lower fat dairy option. This recipe was created for our new Betty Crocker® Gluten-Free Rice Flour Blend available in grocery stores in late July. Until then, feel free to try this recipe using any gluten-free all-purpose rice flour blend found in larger supermarkets and co-ops.
carrot patch cookies Ingredients
Dirt
1 box (4-serving size) chocolate instant pudding and pie filling mix 2 cups milk 1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed 1 1/4 cups finely crushed chocolate wafer cookies (about 20 to 25 cookies) Carrots
1 pouch (1 lb 1.5 oz) Betty Crocker™ sugar cookie mix 1/3 cup unsalted butter, softened 1 tablespoon Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour 1 egg Red and yellow gel food color Betty Crocker® white decorating icing Edible Easter Grass Directions 1In large bowl, beat pudding mix and milk with whisk 2 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken. Let stand 5 minutes. Stir in whipped topping and 1/4 cup of the cookie crumbs. 2Spread pudding mixture evenly in bottom of 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish. Cover with remaining cookie crumbs. Refrigerate 1 hour to set. 3Meanwhile, heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, stir together cookie mix, butter, flour and egg until a dough forms. Add red and yellow gel food colors; stir until dough turns a bright orange color. 4With fingers, shape dough by rounded tablespoonfuls into small carrot shapes, about 2 inches long; place on ungreased cookie sheets. Repeat with remaining dough. Use sharp knife to make a few shallow lines across top of each cookie. 5Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Cool 2 minutes on cookie sheets; remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely. 6Place dab of white decorating icing on back of each cooled cookie. Break off pieces of edible Easter grass; attach a few pieces to icing on back of each cookie to look like green stem of carrot from front. Carefully place cookies upright in pudding mixture (you may not be able to fit all of the cookies). Serve immediately. Expert Tips Serve this cookie "cake" at a child's spring birthday party for a fun and unique treat. You can make the entire recipe ahead of time; just don't place the cookies in the pudding until ready to serve, as they'll soften in the pudding mixture.
low cooker lasagna Ingredients
1 pound bulk Italian sausage 1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup) 3 cans (15 ounces each) Italian-style tomato sauce 2 teaspoons dried basil leaves 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 ounces) 1 container (15 ounces) part-skim ricotta cheese 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese 15 uncooked lasagna noodles
Directions 1Cook sausage and onion in 10-inch skillet over medium heat 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sausage is no longer pink; drain. Stir in tomato sauce, basil and salt. 2Mix 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese and the ricotta and Parmesan cheeses. (Refrigerate remaining mozzarella cheese while lasagna cooks.) 3Spoon one-fourth of the sausage mixture into 6-quart slow cooker; top with 5 noodles, broken into pieces to fit. Spread with half of the cheese mixture and one-fourth of the sausage mixture. Top with 5 noodles, remaining cheese mixture and one-fourth of the sausage mixture. Top with remaining 5 noodles and remaining sausage mixture. 4Cover and cook on Low heat setting 4 to 6 hours or until noodles are tender. 5Sprinkle top of lasagna with remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese. Cover and let stand about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Cut into pieces. Expert Tips Something as simple as chopped fresh parsley will dress up this lasagna. Sprinkle on the parsley just before serving. For lasagna with a kick, look for hot or spicy Italian sausage. Links can be used if bulk sausage isn't available. Just squeeze the meat out of the casings and cook as directed.
