CREAM CHEESE SUGAR COOKIES | JUST A PINCH RECIPES



Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies | Just A Pinch Recipes image

There are so many things we love about this Christmas cookie cutout recipe. It doesn't make a ton of cookies and is easy to throw together - perfect if you just want a little treat. The cookie itself is sweet, tender, buttery and has a richness thanks to the cream cheese. By itself, it's a delicious Christmas cookie. We love that Cassie leaves the decorating up to you. They can be coated with a basic powdered sugar and milk glaze. Or, thin out a buttercream frosting and have fun with a piping bag. A great cookie option if you don't like heavy frosting on your cutout cookies since you can decorate how you want. We used this Easy Homemade Buttercream Recipe for decorating and thinned it a little with milk for our reindeer and Christmas tree decorations.

VANILLA FUDGE RECIPE | BBC GOOD FOOD



Vanilla fudge recipe | BBC Good Food image

Homemade fudge makes a fabulous gift wrapped up for Christmas or any special occasion. Our recipe for these buttery sweets is well worth the effort

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Treat

Total Time 50 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield Cuts into 36 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 5

450g golden caster sugar
400g double cream
50g butter
1 tbsp glucose syrup
1 tbsp vanilla bean paste

Steps:

  • Line a 20 x 20cm cake tin with baking parchment. Tip the sugar, cream, butter and glucose syrup into a medium to large saucepan. Heat to dissolve the sugar and melt the butter, stirring now and again.
  • Once dissolved, put a sugar thermometer in the pan, making sure the end is completely covered by the syrup – if not, transfer the mixture to a smaller pan (with enough space for the syrup to bubble up). Increase the heat and bring the syrup to a steady boil. Keep bubbling, stirring occasionally to stop the sugar from catching, until the mixture reaches 116C – this is known as the soft ball stage.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and leave to sit, undisturbed, for 5 mins, until the temperature drops to 110C. Stir in the vanilla and a good pinch of salt.
  • Keep the sugar thermometer in the pan and begin beating the mixture with a wooden spoon, quite vigorously, until the temperature cools to about 60C. By this time the fudge will be really thick and will have lost it glossy shine. Remove the thermometer and continue beating for a few mins more. This process is very important when making fudge, as it creates small sugar crystals, which give the fudge its lovely smooth and creamy texture (see 'fudge know-how', below).
  • Before it sets completely, quickly pour the fudge into your prepared tin and smooth over the surface. Leave to cool at room temperature overnight – don’t put the fudge in the fridge as it will become sticky and won’t set properly. Cut into bite-sized pieces and pop in a box to give as a present. Will keep, in a sealed container, for up to 2 months.
