CINNAMON SUGAR SCUFFLES (UKRAINIAN SCUFFLES)

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let stand 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, 3 Tbsp. sugar and salt.
• Add the butter, cutting it in with a fork or pastry cutter as if you were making pie crust. I have never made a pie crust so for those confused as I was, simply add the butter gradually, and piece it up with your fork until you have pea-sized amounts in the mixture.
• Add the milk, eggs, and yeast mixture to the dry ingredients.
• Mix well (by hand) and knead a few times until you've got a round ball of dough.
• Cover bowl and refrigerate overnight (important, you need to keep the dough chilled so overnight is perfect!)
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F. Divide dough into 6 parts, keeping one part out and putting the rest back in the fridge until ready for it.
• Scatter your counter generously with sugar and cinnamon, and roll each piece into a circle on the sugar. I used a tea saucer placed on top and cut around it to create the perfect circle.
• Cut your circle into wedges like a pie. I cut mine into 4 pieces and then cut each in half so I ended up with 8 wedges from each circle.
• Roll each wedge from the widest side inward to the skinniest.
• Place on a baking sheet about about 1 inch apart and bake for 10 minutes, or until golden.
• Remove from baking sheet immediately and cool.

SCUFFLES

Steps:

• Combine flour, 3 tbsp sugar and yeast in bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Add milk and beaten eggs to flour mixture and stir just until combined.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead dough and shape into a ball. Place ball in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or up to 12 hours before rolling out.
• Remove dough from refrigerator.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Meanwhile, uncovered dough and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Knead dough and divide into 6 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
• Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Sprinkle a clean surface with about 1 tbsp of sugar mixture. On sprinkled surface, use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll out one ball into a round about 1/8 inch thick; flip dough over while rolling to get sugar mixture on both sides. Cut round into 8 wedges. Starting with wide end, roll up each wedge jelly-roll fashion. Gently pinch centre of rolls to secure.
• Repeat procedure with remaining sugar mixture and balls.
• Place rolls in parchment paper-lined rimmed baking sheets.
• Bake until rolls are lightly browned, about 16-18 minutes.
• Remove from pans and cool on racks.
• Store in an airtight container in a refrigerator for up to 1 week. May be frozen.

SCUFFLES

Steps:

• Mix in large bowl, flour, salt, yeast and margerine.
• Add milk, eggs and water.
• Knead dough and let stand in fridge overnight.
• In morning, divide dough into 4 equal parts.
• Roll as for pie crust.
• Mix 1 Cup white sugar and 2 tablespoons cinnamon.
• Sprinkle on both sides.
• Cut into triangles and roll wide end to narrow end.
• Bake in greased pan, 12-15 minutes in 350 degree oven.

CHOCOLATE SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Brush 6 (6-ounce) ramekins with soft butter, then coat with sugar. Put the prepared ramekins in the freezer. (This can be done a day ahead.)
• Set an oven rack in lower third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Put the chocolate and butter in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, but not touching, the water. Stir the chocolate occasionally until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Set aside.
• Combine the egg yolks and warm water in the bowl of a standing mixer or large bowl and beat until frothy. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar, and continue beating until ribbons form, about 5 minutes. Very lightly fold the yolks into the chocolate mixture. (Rinse the bowl well, if using for beating the egg whites.)
• Remove prepared ramekins from freezer. Put the egg whites in the bowl of a standing mixer, or large non-reactive bowl, add the lemon juice. Beat on medium until frothy; then gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and increase speed to high. Beat until the whites hold a stiff but not dry peak.
• Working quickly, fold about a third of the egg whites into the chocolate to lighten; then fold in remaining whites until blended. Gently ladle or spoon the souffle mixture into the ramekins, and place on a baking sheet. (Level off the surface with a straight edge, scraping any excess mixture back into the bowl.)
• Immediately bake until the souffle rises about 1 1/2 inches from the ramekins, and the tops are touched with brown, about 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven, dust with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.

SCUFFLES AKA CINNAMON TWISTS

Steps:

• Add flour and baking powder together in large bowl; mix to combine
• Cut butter into flour mixture until crumbly; add milk and eggs, stirring just until dough comes together to form a ball
• Divide into 4 discs; cover each securely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or overnight until ice cold
• Weigh flour and baking powder into TM bowl: mix to combine for 5 seconds at speed 3
• Weigh cold butter cubes into flour mixture in TM bowl; use hand or wooden spoon to mix butter cubes inside TM bowl with flour (without machine running)
• Mix to combine from 0-10 for 15 seconds until coarse crumbles (similar to oatmeal)
• Weigh milk and eggs into TM bowl; combine for 30 seconds at speed 3 to 8 until mixture just comes together in clumps (be sure to not over mix)
• Divide dough into 4 discs; cover each securely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or overnight until ice cold
• Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle generous amount on work surface
• Divide dough into 8 equal balls; refrigerate seven and place one on top of cinnamon sugar
• Roll dough out 1/8th-inch thick into circle (as you would pie crust) on sugar/cinnamon mixture
• Divide circle of dough into 4, then into 8 triangular pieces: a pizza or pastry cutter works great for this
• Start at the wide end of your triangle and roll triangle toward its point similar to rolling a croissant; place each on cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 18-20 minutes

CHEESE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Use room temperature butter to grease an 8-inch souffle mold. Add the grated Parmesan and roll around the mold to cover the sides. Cover with plastic wrap and place into the freezer for 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a small saucepan, heat the butter. Allow all of the water to cook out.
• In a separate bowl combine the flour, dry mustard, garlic powder, and kosher salt. Whisk this mixture into the melted butter. Cook for 2 minutes.
• Whisk in the hot milk and turn the heat to high. Once the mixture reaches a boil, remove from the heat.
• In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks to a creamy consistency. Temper the yolks into the milk mixture, constantly whisking. Remove from the heat and add the cheese. Whisk until incorporated.
• In a separate bowl, using a hand mixer, whip the egg whites and cream of tartar until glossy and firm. Add 1/4 of the mixture to the base. Continue to add the whites by thirds, folding very gently.
• Pour the mixture into the souffle. Fill the souffle to 1/2-inch from the top. Place on an aluminum pie pan. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes.

CHOCOLATE SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Butter 6 ramekins or 1 large souffle dish and coat with granulated sugar, tapping the side of the ramekins while upside down to remove any excess sugar. Heat the chocolate and butter in a glass bowl over simmering water in a double boiler, until blended, stirring occasionally. When blended, remove the bowl from the double boiler.
• Using a hand mixer, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl until soft peaks form. Add the 1/3 cup granulated sugar gradually, beating constantly until stiff peaks form. In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks until slightly paler in color. Add the whisked egg yolks to the melted chocolate mixture, then fold in the egg whites.
• Spoon or pipe the chocolate mixture into the prepared ramekins and arrange them on a baking sheet. Carefully put them in the middle of the oven and bake until the souffles are risen and cooked, about 18 to 25 minutes Remove the souffles from the oven and serve immediately with melted vanilla bean ice cream, in a pitcher, to be poured over the souffles. Enjoy!
• Other serving suggestions: lightly sweetened whipped cream or a dusting of powdered sugar or cocoa powder.
• Cook's Note: To help the souffles rise evenly, run the tip of your thumb around the inside edge of the ramekins before baking.

HOT CHOCOLATE SOUFFLéS WITH CHOCOLATE CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7 and place a baking tray on the top shelf. For the sauce, heat the cream and sugar until boiling. Remove from the heat, stir in the chocolate and butter until melted, then keep warm.
• Brush 6 x 150ml ramekins with melted butter, sprinkle with the 2 tbsp caster sugar, then tip out any excess. Melt the chocolate and cream in a bowl over a pan of simmering water, cool, then mix in the egg yolks. Whisk the egg whites until they hold their shape, then add the sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, whisking back to the same consistency. Mix a spoonful into the chocolate, then gently fold in the rest.
• Working quickly, fill the ramekins, wipe the rims clean and run your thumb around the edges. Turn oven down to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6, place the ramekins onto the baking tray, then bake for 8-10 mins until risen with a slight wobble. Don't open the oven door too early as this may make them collapse.
• Once the soufflés are ready, dust with icing sugar, scoop a small hole from their tops, then pour in some of the hot chocolate sauce. Replace the lids and serve straight away.

GRAMMA'S SCUFFLES

Steps:

• Mix first ingredients until crumbly. Mix 2nd ingredients; make a well and add egg mixture to flour mixture.
• (I'm not sure if over-mixing matters or not!) Portion the dough into 8-10 balls (about the size of a pie plate when rolled out). Wrap each ball in plastic wrap and leave in the fridge overnight(or a few hours if you're in a rush).
• Sprinkle cinnamon sugar onto work surface and roll out patties to the size of a pie plate. Cut into wedges and roll into scuffles. Roll from wide end down to the point. Place onto cookie sheet. Bake at 350 deg for 12 minutes.
