Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups strawberry, finely chopped
1 cup sugar
1 lemon juice
1 cup sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup heavy cream
1 pinch kosher salt
1 qt neutral oil, such as canola or vegetable, for frying
3 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
3 eggs, beaten
2 cups mini marshmallows
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon coconut oil
2 tablespoons powdered sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • Make the strawberry dipping sauce: Add the strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice to a small pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes, until thickened. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside until ready to serve.
  • Make the caramel dipping sauce: Add the sugar to a small pan over medium heat. Without stirring, cook the caramel for about 10 minutes, swirling the pan occasionally to loosen any clumps of sugar. Once the sugar turns dark amber in color, remove the pot from the heat. Add the butter and heavy cream and whisk to combine. Be careful as the mixture will bubble up and could burn you. 3. Add the salt and stir to combine. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside until ready to serve.
  • Make the fries: Heat 1 inch (2.5 cm) of oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • Add the milk and eggs to the dry ingredients. With a rubber spatula, stir until fully incorporated.
  • Transfer the batter to a clean squeeze bottle.
  • Working one at a time, squeeze the batter into hot oil. Cook for 30-45 seconds on each side until golden brown. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper wire rack over a baking tray.
  • Make the marshmallow dipping sauce: Add the marshmallows and butter to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 1 minute in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  • Make the chocolate dipping sauce: Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until melted.
  • Dust the funnel cake fries with powdered sugar and serve with the dipping sauces.
  • Enjoy!

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 very ripe plantains, peeled and sliced on the bias
¼ cup coconut sugar
¼ teaspoon McCormick® Ground Cinnamon
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 can cream of coconut
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 ½ cups crema
2 qt vegetable oil, for frying
2 ½ cups all purpose flour
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 can full fat coconut milk
3 large eggs

Steps:

  • Roasted the plantains: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a glass 9 x 13-inch baking dish, toss the plantains with the coconut sugar, cinnamon, and salt until well coated.
  • Roast until the plantains are tender, but not mushy, about 30 minutes.
  • Make coconut syrup: In a blender, combine the coconut cream, sweetened condensed milk, and crema. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Make the funnel cake: Heat the vegetable oil in a large, high-walled skillet over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, coconut milk, and eggs until thick and creamy.
  • Pour the batter into a large squeeze bottle or gallon-size zip-top bag with the corner cut off.
  • Squeeze the batter into the hot oil in a circular motion to create multiple layers. Fry until golden brown on one side, about 2 minutes, then flip and continue frying until golden brown on the other side, about 2 minutes more.
  • Top the funnel cake with toasted coconut flakes, coconut sugar, the roasted plantains, and coconut syrup. Serve immediately.

BLOODY CUPCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY



Bloody Cupcakes Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: water, light corn syrup, granulated sugar, cornstarch, corn syrup, cornstarch, water, red gel food coloring, blue gel food coloring, red velvet cupcakes, candy thermometer

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Desserts

Yield 8 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

¾ cup water
⅔ cup light corn syrup
2 cups granulated sugar
cornstarch, for dusting
¼ cup corn syrup
1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon water, room temperature
1 ½ teaspoons red gel food coloring
2 drops blue gel food coloring
8 red velvet cupcakes, store bought
candy thermometer

Steps:

  • Make the edible "glass": Line a baking sheet with a nonstick mat or parchment paper.
  • In a medium saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer, combine the water, corn syrup, and sugar. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the temperature reaches 300°F (150°C), hard crack stage.
  • Pour the candy evenly onto the prepared baking sheet and let cool at room temperature for 45-50 minutes.
  • Once cooled, drop the baking sheet onto the counter a few times to break the candy into 1-2-inch "glass" shards. Dust lightly with cornstarch to prevent the pieces from sticking together.
  • Make the "blood": In a small bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, cornstarch, water, red food coloring, and blue food coloring until well combined.
  • Stick 2-3 pieces of "glass" into each red velvet cupcake. Drizzle the "blood" over the top.
  • Enjoy!
