Homemade Brown Sugar Food

BROWN SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• For the cookies: Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.
• Beat the brown sugar and butter with an electric mixer on medium speed in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes; beat in the egg, then the vanilla. Add the flour mixture and mix on medium-low speed until completely incorporated. Divide the dough in half, pat into 2 discs about 1/4 inch thick, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Position oven racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Let the dough sit at room temperature for a few minutes to make rolling easier. Roll out 1 disc of dough at a time between 2 pieces of parchment paper until 1/8 inch thick. Cut out shapes with the cookie cutters and arrange about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake until the cookies are golden brown on the bottom, 10 to 12 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets until firm enough to transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely.
• Gently gather any scraps into a ball and press into a disc; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate the disc until firm enough to roll, about 1 hour. Cut out as many cookies as possible and bake.
• For the royal icing: Beat the confectioners' sugar, meringue powder and 1/3 cup water with an electric mixer in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Beat in the food coloring if using. (The icing can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.)
• Decorate the cookies with the icing; top with decorating sugar and sprinkles if using.

BROWN SUGAR FUDGE

Steps:

• Grease an 8x8-inch pan.
• Bring brown sugar, evaporated milk, and butter to a boil in a large saucepan; boil mixture for exactly 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add confectioners' sugar. Beat fudge with an electric mixer on medium speed for exactly 5 minutes. Stir in walnuts. Spread fudge into the prepared pan and let cool before cutting into squares.

HOMEMADE BROWN SUGAR

Steps:

• Combine molasses and white sugar.
• Mix well with a fork.

HOMEMADE BROWN SUGAR BUBBLE TEA

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add tapioca pearls and stir gently until they begin floating to the top of the water. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until softened and dark, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Remove from heat and add tea leaves. Let steep for 15 minutes. Strain out tea leaves and refrigerate the tea.
• Drain pearls. Bring 1/4 cup of water to a boil in the empty saucepan. Stir in brown sugar until dissolved. Immerse the pearls in the syrup and let sit until room temperature, about 15 minutes.
• Divide the pearls and desired amount of syrup between 2 tall glasses. Pour in tea. Add ice, milk, and sweetened condensed milk to both glasses. Stir before drinking.

HOMEMADE MEXICAN CHALUPAS RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy-duty shallow skillet such as a cast-iron skillet on medium heat.
• In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, baking powder, salt, and shortening. Use a fork to mix the ingredients together. Pour the milk into the dry ingredients. Use a wooden spoon to mix ingredients in with the milk to form a ball of dough.
• Turn dough onto a floured surface and roll until smooth. Mold the dough into a loaf about 8 inches. Divide the dough in half, then into fourths. See the picture above. Roll each individual section into a ball and roll out the small ball of dough into a round circle about 4-5 inches wide.
• Use tongs and carefully dip half of the chalupa dough into the hot oil. Once that half of the dough has begun to fry up but not quite brown, flip the chalupa bread with the other half of the dough frying in the oil. This is if you want to try to have the chalupas have the dip on the bottom for your fillings. If it doesn't matter to you, just fry on both sides for 2 minutes until golden brown and remove from oil onto cooling rack lined with paper towels.
• Fill your chalupas with beef seasoned with taco seasoning, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, and a dollop of sour cream. Top with taco sauce if desired.

LIGHT OR DARK BROWN SUGAR

• Gather the ingredients.
• Combine white sugar and molasses in a bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon or mixer until thoroughly blended.
• Store brown sugar in an airtight container to prevent from drying out. Enjoy in your favorite recipes.

BROWN SUGAR ANGEL FOOD CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat egg whites and sugar on medium speed until foamy; add cream of tartar. Increase speed to high; beat egg whites until tripled in volume, stiff, and glossy. Transfer egg white mixture to a large bowl; fold in flour in three additions.
• Transfer batter to a piping bag fitted with a 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch round tip and pipe into ungreased mini angel food cake pans with removable bottoms. Smooth tops with an offset spatula. Run a knife through batter to pop air pockets. Bake until cakes are golden in color and spring back when gently pressed, about 25 minutes.
• Invert pans over the necks of glass bottles and allow cakes to cool, at least 1 hour. To remove cakes from pans, run a knife around sides and center tube of pans. Release cakes from sides and run a long knife along the bottom of the cakes, freeing them from the tube.
• Make the hot fudge sauce: Combine all ingredients except the vanilla in a saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a full boil. Boil the mixture briskly for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, then remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
• Serve the cakes with hot fudge sauce and espresso ice cream.

HOMEMADE BROWN SUGAR

Steps:

• Combine both ingredients in a bowl and stir until smooth and sticky. Makes 1 cup of brown sugar.
• To double the recipe, use 2 cups of white sugar and 1/4 cup of molasses.

HOMEMADE BROWN SUGAR BOBA

Steps:

• Whisk 1/3 cup water with 1 cup of the tapioca starch in a small bowl. The slurry may look separated but will come together in the next step.
• Add the brown sugar and 2/3 cup water to a small saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat to medium high and whisk in the tapioca slurry until the mixture begins to just tighten and the water fully incorporates, about 30 seconds.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 cup tapioca starch using a heatproof spatula until it forms a ball of shaggy dough, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Dust a work surface with tapioca flour. Gather the dough together from the saucepan, transfer it to the surface and let cool, 3 to 4 minutes. Knead the dough until it is smooth, springy to the touch and no longer sticky, adding tapioca starch as needed, about 7 minutes. If the dough feels too dry, wet your hands and knead in water from your hands.
• Divide the dough into 6 pieces and cover with a damp kitchen towel. Roll out 1 piece of dough to a thickness of about 1/4 inch with a rolling pin. Use a 1/2-inch-wide bubble tea straw with the tip dusted in tapioca starch to cut pieces from the dough, making sure to dust the straw occasionally to prevent sticking. Gather the dough scraps into a ball and repeat the process. Discard any leftover dough after this step as it will be too dry to use again. Repeat with the remaining 5 pieces of dough.
• Lightly dust a baking sheet with tapioca starch. Roll the boba pieces into pea-sized balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. If the dough feels too dry or is cracking, dampen your fingers with a little water and knead it. Use immediately or freeze the boba in a single layer until hard, about 2 hours. Transfer to a resealable freezer bag and freeze until ready to use.

HOMEMADE DARK BROWN SUGAR

Steps:

• Place the sugar and molasses into the bowl of a food processor and process until the molasses is completely incorporated into the sugar, approximately 1 minute. If necessary, stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Place in an airtight container and store for up to a month.

BROWN SUGAR BOBA MILK TEA

Steps:

• For the syrup: Stir the brown sugar with 1 cup water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until the mixture is the consistency of a loose maple syrup, about 8 minutes. Add the syrup to a heat-safe jar to cool while cooking the boba.
• Place the boba in a fine sieve and shake off any excess cornstarch.
• Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the boba, stirring to prevent them from sticking together, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the boba float to the top and darken in color with translucent edges, about 4 minutes if the boba are fresh and about 7 minutes if they are frozen. Drain the boba and rinse with cold water (they will be chewy but will firm up as they cool).
• Add the boba to the brown sugar syrup and let sit until the syrup is at room temperature, about 20 minutes.
• For the tea: Divide the boba among 4 glasses using a slotted spoon and add 1 tablespoon of the syrup to each glass, letting the syrup streak and coat the inside of the glass. Divide the tea and milk evenly among the glasses and serve.
• Whisk 1/3 cup water with 1 cup of the tapioca starch in a small bowl. The slurry may look separated but will come together in the next step.
• Add the brown sugar and 2/3 cup water to a small saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat to medium high and whisk in the tapioca slurry until the mixture begins to just tighten and the water fully incorporates, about 30 seconds.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 cup tapioca starch using a heatproof spatula until it forms a ball of shaggy dough, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Dust a work surface with tapioca flour. Gather the dough together from the saucepan, transfer it to the surface and let cool, 3 to 4 minutes. Knead the dough until it is smooth, springy to the touch and no longer sticky, adding tapioca starch as needed, about 7 minutes. If the dough feels too dry, wet your hands and knead in water from your hands.
• Divide the dough into 6 pieces and cover with a damp kitchen towel. Roll out 1 piece of dough to a thickness of about 1/4 inch with a rolling pin. Use a 1/2-inch-wide bubble tea straw with the tip dusted in tapioca starch to cut pieces from the dough, making sure to dust the straw occasionally to prevent sticking. Gather the dough scraps into a ball and repeat the process. Discard any leftover dough after this step as it will be too dry to use again. Repeat with the remaining 5 pieces of dough.
• Lightly dust a baking sheet with tapioca starch. Roll the boba pieces into pea-sized balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. If the dough feels too dry or is cracking, dampen your fingers with a little water and knead it. Use immediately or freeze the boba in a single layer until hard, about 2 hours. Transfer to a resealable freezer bag and freeze until ready to use.
