LEMON TRUFFLES

by


 

Ingredients:


* 1 cup white chocolate chips

* 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

* 1/4 cup heavy cream

* Zest of 2 lemons

* 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

* 2 cups powdered sugar

* Yellow food coloring (optional)

* Lemon zest or yellow sprinkles for decoration (optional)


Instructions:

1. In a heatproof bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and butter.


2. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and butter mixture. Let it sit for a minute to melt the chocolate, and then stir until smooth.


3. Add the lemon zest and lemon juice to the chocolate mixture, stirring well.


4. Gradually add the powdered sugar, stirring continuously, until the mixture is smooth and well combined. If you want a more vibrant yellow color, you can add a few drops of yellow food coloring.


5. Refrigerate the mixture for about 2 hours or until it’s firm enough to handle.


6. Once the mixture is firm, use your hands to roll small portions into truffle-sized balls. If the mixture is too sticky, you can dust your hands with powdered sugar.


7. Optional: Roll the truffles in additional lemon zest or yellow sprinkles for a decorative touch.


8. Refrigerate the truffles for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Ingredients:

For the Mashed Potatoes:

2 pounds potatoes, peeled and quartered

1/2 cup milk

4 tablespoons butter

Salt and pepper to taste

For the Ground Beef and Gravy:

1 pound ground beef

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 cups beef broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: 1 cup frozen peas and carrots


Directions:

Prepare the Mashed Potatoes:

Place the peeled and quartered potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add salt and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the milk and butter, and mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and keep warm.

Cook the Ground Beef and Prepare the Gravy:

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef, and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.

Sprinkle the flour over the beef and cook, stirring, for another 2 minutes to cook off the flour taste.

Gradually stir in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a simmer, and let the gravy thicken, about 5 minutes. If using, add the frozen peas and carrots during the last few minutes of cooking.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve:

Spoon the creamy mashed potatoes onto plates or into bowls.

Top with the ground beef and gravy mixture.

Cooker pot Roast with Gravy Sauce Recipe

by


 

Ingredients:

  • 2-pound chuck roast
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 8 oz mini carrots
  • 16 oz golden potatoes (cut in half or into quarters if large)
  • 1/2 cup red wine
  • 1 tablespoon garlic and herb seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 sweet yellow onion
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 1/4 cup tapioca beads
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • Steps

    Take your roast, and from there, season it completely with the herb and garlic seasoning, which makes everything completely covered.
    Take the oil and heat it, and heat the pan over medium-high heat, in a slow cooker or skillet.
    Take the roast, then brown on each side.
    Take the roast and place in the slow cooker with the potatoes and carrots.
    From there, use the time to make a porridge by whisking 1/4 cup of water with the cornstarch.


    Be sure to whip the porridge completely with the remaining ingredients in the slow cooker.
    From there, put the slow cooker over low heat, then let it cook over low heat for about 8-10 hours, or until it is tender, and everything is combined.
    Season everything for taste, and from there, serve as you wish. You should try to go for a tender fork kind of pot roast to offer the best results you can get from this, and something you won’t be able to get enough.
