Pecan Cream Food

NO BAKE PECAN CREAM PIE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk, milk, dry pudding mix, butter extract, and 2 cups toasted pecans (reserving 1/2 cup for garnish).
• Fold in whipped topping.
• Spread into prepared pie crust. I use a larger, 9 oz. crust, but sometimes the smaller, 6 oz. crusts are easier to find in stores. This can make two smaller 6 oz. pies.
• Refrigerate til set, at least 2 hours.
• If desired, garnish with additional whipped cream and remaining toasted pecans. Cut and serve.

HONEY PECAN CREAM CHEESE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients into softened cream cheese.

PECAN PIE WITH MAPLE CREAM

Steps:

• To make the pastry, beat the butter and sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy, then beat in the egg yolks. Stir in the flour, then use your hands to bring the mixture together into a dough. Remove from the bowl, wrap and transfer to the fridge to chill for at least 1 hr.
• Roll the pastry out onto a lightly floured surface to the thickness of a £1 coin, then lift into a 23cm loose-bottomed tart tin. Press the pastry into the base and sides of the tin, allowing any excess to hang over the sides. Put the tin on a baking sheet and chill for 30 mins.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Prick the base of the pastry case with a fork. Line with baking parchment and baking beans and bake for 20 mins, then remove the parchment and beans and bake for 10-15 mins more until golden. Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin before using a small serrated knife to trim away the excess pastry.
• To make the filling, roughly chop or bash half the pecans and set aside. Whisk the eggs and sugar together in a large bowl, then add the golden syrup, butter, salt, vanilla extract and bourbon, if using, and continue to whisk until everything is well combined. Add the pecans and mix again to thoroughly combine.
• Pour the pecan filling into the pastry case and arrange the remaining whole pecans on top. Bake for 20 mins until evenly coloured - it should be lightly golden brown and set with a slight wobble when you gently shake the tin. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for at least 1 hr. Just before serving, whip the cream and maple syrup together to soft peaks and serve alongside the pie.

PECAN PRALINE BUTTER CREAM ICING

Steps:

• -Pecan Pralines-.
• Melt butter over medium heat in a saucepan.
• Add sugar to the saucepan and stir frequently (do NOT use a plastic spoon, use a wire whisk). Stir until completely melted and resembles an amber color.
• Add in pecans and continue to stir mixture until the sugar is hot and bubbly (do NOT use a whisk for this part, use a metal spoon).
• On parchment paper, spread out the pecan mixture and let cool completely.
• Break pecans into pieces and place into a food processor. Process until it resembles brown sugar (slightly moist, but not pasty).
• -Butter Cream Icing-.
• Add a dash of salt to the egg whites and beat for 30 seconds.
• Place the whites over a double broiler and add sugar 1/2 cup at a time.
• Gently whip the mixture with a whisk until the egg whites no longer feel grainy when rubbed between your fingertips.
• Whip mixture on medium high until bowl is cool to the touch.
• Cut up the cold, but not hard, butter, and slowly add it to the meringue.
• Mix butter into meringue on medium-high with cake mixer. Keep mixing until you hear a "slapping" sound. This is when the butter cream is ready.
• Add vanilla.

PECAN CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese, butter and vanilla at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy.
• Gradually add powdered sugar, beating at low speed until blended.
• Beat at high speed until smooth; stir in pecans.

PECAN CREAM CHEESE BALL

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese, Old English, and Pimiento cheese spread together in large bowl until well-blended.
• Line a large,deeply-dished coffee mug or bowl with plastic wrap.
• Transfer cheese mixture to mug or bowl and cover with more plastic wrap.
• Chill for about two hours or until somewhat firm (the mixture will never become"hard.") After mixture has firmed up, remove the top layer of plastic wrap and invert the cheese ball onto a small plate.
• Remove remaining plastic wrap and cover the cheese ball with pecans.
• Chopped pecans may be used instead of pecan halves.
• Serve with apples and/or snack crackers.
• Note: This is not a firm cheese ball, and you'll probably never get it into a perfect ball shape.
• That's why a deeply-dished mug or bowl will help in the shaping process.

PECAN CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Place unbaked pie crust in a 9 inch pie plate; crimp edges, and set aside.
