My Trip

So I went to Disney world last week. It was fun and I got myself to go on Space Mountain which wasn't as scary as I thought (Roller coasters aren't my favorite ride). Anyway the food, I found options and was able to eat easily all over Disney world. At one restaurant they even had gluten-free bread rolls... they were delicious, however some of the food in Disney world I disliked, but I can't be picky because they are being so generous to have gluten- free options. After my trip to Disney world my family and I drove to Georgia to see some of our relatives there, I found out that a lot of the restaurants there had gluten-free menus, most of them didn't have stuff that they could make gluten-free like bread but they had gluten-free options which I thought was great, but now I'm back at home working on my cookbook.

Gingerbread cookies

It's the holiday season. That means lots of sweets! (for me). Like having delicious egg nog, or sugar cookies or these gingerbread cookies! When I was making these I found out that this molasses smells terrible, at least to me. well, here's the recipe:

Gingerbread Cookies

1 cup White Rice Flour

½ Cup Sweet rice flour

¾ Cup Tapioca Flour

3/4 Cup Sugar

½ Cup Molasses

1 Egg yolk

¾ Teaspoon Baking powder

¾ Teaspoon Baking soda

1 Teaspoon Salt

¾ Teaspoon Xanthan Gum

¾ Teaspoon Allspice

½ Cup Butter

¼ Teaspoon Nutmeg

¾ Teaspoon Cinnamon

1 Teaspoon Salt

Put the dry ingredients in a bowl. Cream the sugar and butter together until smooth. Stir in the molasses and the egg yolk and mix until combined. Add in the dry ingredients and mix with an electric mixer on medium low until you get “doughy” dough or so it is pliable enough to roll into a bowl without crumbling. Cover and chill for one hour. Preheat you oven to 350 F. Take out a piece of plastic wrap double the size of the dough and flour it. Put the dough on it and fold it over and then with a rolling pin simply roll it out to any thickness you would like. At this point you can cut out any shapes or just flatten into a circle and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Then bake for about 10 minutes until browned more than it was already. Let cool completely and then put on frosting if you would like.

Frosting Recipe

4 Tablespoons butter

¾ teaspoon vanilla extract

2 Cups Confectioner’s Sugar

2 Tablespoons milk

¼ teaspoon salt

Cream the butter, salt and vanilla together. Add in the sugar while mixing until fluffy, then add milk and mix with an electric mixer until soft, scraping bowl occasionally.

The Cake

My younger brother wanted me to bake him a cake for his birthday party. so I baked a cake and decorated it to look like a present. Here's a picture of it:

It may not look too good but it was incredibly hard to make. I was going to bake two  cakes but as always disaster struck when the cakes were too thin so I had to add another layer. After that was over I had to decorate it. I used marshmallow fondant. That wasn't the best choice I think because first, it was so hard to make and used up so much ingredients (or at least the recipe I found did) and it was really sweet. but I made it after a while and rolled out for the sides of the present, and then my neighbor helped me think of the way to put on a bow and we did that. On the day of the party I used these amazing food markers? (you can write on frosting and such) But it turned out to be really fun and since I was watching lots of those cake shows where they have to decorate cakes My cake turned out really good.

Rasberry scones

Here, just a recipe that I decided not to put in my cookbook, not that it tastes bad but that I just thought they weren't more of a neat recipe well anyway the point is heres a good recipe:

Rasberry Scones

1 cup Cornmeal
1 cup White rice flour
1 cup Tapioca flour
1-1/2 cup Raspberries
1 cup milk
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 tsp. Xanthan gum
1/2 cup Softened butter
1/2 tsp. Baking powder
1 tablespoon Agave syrup
1/2 cup Sugar
2 Eggs

Put oven to 375°. Put all dry ingredients in bowl. Put in butter, mix together. Pour in the rest of the ingredients. Mix together. Pour in raspberries. Mix again, then spoon batter onto greased pan. Sprinkle some sugar on top if you want. Bake for 30 min.

Simple Ice Cream Pie

I wanted to make a ice cream pie recipe for a long time. At first I was going to use cookies for the crust then I decided ice cream cones but that decision was changed when I couldn't find ice cream cones and so my crust is actually crackers. I don't know if it was just me but the pie some how had a nutty taste and I don't remember having anything nutty? Here's the recipe:

2 Tablespoons Sugar
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
4 Tablespoons Melted butter
1 1/4 Cup crackers
Some caramel sauce
3/4 Cup Vanilla Ice cream

preheat oven to 375° F.  Smash the crumbs in a large bowl until you get coarse crumbs. Then add the sugars and melted butter. put the crackers on a 9" pie plate and press it down all over the pie plate and bake it for 20 minutes. Pour the ice cream over the pie crust and flatten out and top with caramel sauce then place in freezer and freeze until hard.
