Instructions

  1. 1 In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in 1/2 cup warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  2. 2 In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the evaporated milk, 1/4 cup water, shortening, honey, salt and 2 cups flour. Stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  3. 3 Punch dough down and divide in half. Roll out each half and roll into loaf shapes, sealing seams by pinching. Place in buttered 9x5 inch bread pans. Butter the tops of each loaf with melted butter; cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm area until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  4. 4 Place a small pan of hot water on the bottom shelf of the oven. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  5. 5 Uncover loaves and bake until tops are golden brown, about 25 to 35 minutes. Brush butter onto crusts while warm. Slice when cool.

Instructions

  1. 1 Mix together boiling water, potato flakes, evaporated milk, shortening, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Place in the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled.
  2. 2 After dough is thoroughly chilled, add 3 cups flour, using a pastry blender to cut in.
  3. 3 Divide dough into 3 equal size portions. Form into 3 logs. Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator.
  4. 4 Heat an electric griddle to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  5. 5 Divide logs into 8 pieces of dough. Roll each piece to about the size of a 10-inch tortilla. Work additional remaining flour into rounds as needed. Use care to press lightly with the rolling pin when forming into rounds as they are much more tender than pie dough. The weight of a large rolling pin is nearly enough.
  6. 6 Bake on the griddle until golden brown and each round feels dry but not crisp, about 1 minute. Flip and turn lefse frequently.
  7. 7 Cool on a cloth. Cover with an additional cloth. Stack pieces on top of each other as they are baked. The steam will create a more tender product.

  2. 2 Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
  3. 3 Whip together the egg whites in the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Add the cream of tartar and whip until soft peaks form, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the egg whites to a separate bowl.
  4. 4 Beat the egg yolks in the mixing bowl using a paddle attachment until thick and pale in color. Add the granulated sugar and beat on high for about 5 minutes, until very thick and ribbons fall when you lift the paddle attachment. Stir in the vanilla extract, almond extract and milk until smooth. Add the flour mixture and stir until just combined.
  5. 5 Fold in the egg whites, in three increments, making sure to thoroughly incorporate the whites but try not to over-mix.
  6. 6 Pour batter into prepared baking pan and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. 7 Whisk together the three milks in a medium bowl. Whisk in the rum and vanilla extract. Using a wooden skewer, poke holes all throughout the cooled cake. This will allow for the milk mixture to seep in. Pour the milk evenly over the cake. Cover with Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil and allow to chill in the fridge for about 3 hours or overnight.

Instructions

  1. 1 Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Add cinnamon sticks, cloves, and anise seed. Cover and set aside to steep for 15 minutes.
  2. 2 Meanwhile, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 2 tablespoons water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir occasionally to dissolve sugar completely, but stop stirring once the mixture comes to a boil. Stay near the stove to monitor the color, swirling the pan gently to redistribute the sugar as the caramel begins to darken. Cook to about 310 degrees F (160 degrees C), or until the sugar turns light golden brown, then pour into a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Set aside to allow caramel to harden.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  4. 4 Remove crust from day-old bread, tear bread into cubes, and place into a large mixing bowl. Strain spice tea through a fine mesh sieve to remove spices. Add to bread along with evaporated milk. Stir to evenly moisten and set aside for 10 minutes.
  5. 5 While the bread mixture sits, whisk eggs in a large mixing bowl along with remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar, vanilla, salt, and melted butter. Stir in moistened bread mixture until evenly mixed. Pour into the loaf pan over the caramel.
  6. 6 Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place the loaf pan on the towel, inside the roasting pan, and place roasting pan on oven rack. Fill the roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the loaf pan.
  7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
  8. 8 Cool in the pan for about an hour, then refrigerate until cold, 2 hours more.
