Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Clean and fully dry a 10-inch tube pan.
  2. 2 Sift together flour, and 3/4 cup sugar, set aside.
  3. 3 Whip egg whites, along with vanilla, cream of tartar, and salt, in a large bowl to medium stiff peaks. Gradually add remaining 3/4 cup sugar while continuing to whip to stiff peaks. When the egg white mixture has reached its maximum volume, fold in the sifted ingredients gradually, 1/3 at a time. Do not overmix. Put the batter into the tube pan.
  4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until the cake springs back when touched, 40 to 45 minutes.
  5. 5 Balance the tube pan upside down on the top of a bottle to prevent decompression while cooling. When cool, run a knife around the edge of the pan and invert onto a plate.

Instructions

  1. 1 In a large bowl, stir together the cake flour, bread flour, salt and white sugar. Stir in the chunks of butter so that each one is completely coated in flour. Combine the cold water and lemon juice; stir into the bowl while lightly tossing the ingredients to moisten them evenly. Gather the dough into a ball.
  2. 2 On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Keep the edges as square as possible. The dough will look terrible, but don't worry, it will shape up. Fold the dough into thirds like a business letter, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. 3 Place the dough on the floured work surface and turn at a 90 degree angle from the last time you rolled it out. Roll again into a rectangle again and fold into thirds. If the dough is still cold and manageable, rotate and roll again, then fold into thirds, or refrigerate and continue in 30 minutes. Finish by rolling the dough out to the size of a baking sheet. Place on a lightly floured baking sheet and wrap in plastic. refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using.
  4. 4 To use, roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness and cut into shapes with a sharp knife. Use as directed in recipes calling for puff pastry, or alternatively, enclose desired fillings and bake in a preheated 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) oven until puffed and golden brown.

  1. 1 Combine cake mix, cake flour, melted butter, eggs, evaporated milk, and food coloring in a large bowl. Mix with an electric mixer on slow speed until fully combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, but best if overnight. The longer the dough sits, the easier it is to roll out and cut.

  3. 3 Roll dough on a lightly floured piece of parchment paper to a thickness of 1/8 or 1/16 inch. Cut cookies with a snowflake-shaped cookie cutter and place on the prepared cookie sheet. Dust off any flour from the top of the cookies with a brush or paper towel.
  4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven for 6 to 7 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely, 25 to 30 minutes more.
  5. 5 Decorate fully cooled cookies as desired with icing.

Instructions

  1. 1 Position rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9-inch round layer pan and line with a parchment circle.
  2. 2 In a small saucepan, heat the milk and butter to almost boiling. Set aside.
  3. 3 Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a triple sifter. Set aside.
  4. 4 Beat the eggs on medium-high speed in an electric mixer fitted with beaters or a whip attachment for about 2 minutes. Gradually add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, taking about 4-5 minutes to blend it in well. Scrape the sides of the bowl occasionally. The mixture will thicken and turn light yellow in color.
  5. 5 Reduce mixer speed to medium. Add the vanilla, then pour in the hot milk IN A STEADY STREAM, taking about 10 seconds. Immediately add the dry ingredients all at once, and beat just until blended, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary. Increase mixer speed to medium-high and beat 10 seconds. The batter will be very thin. Remove the bowl from the mixer and quickly pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  6. 6 Bake 30-35 minutes, or until the cake begins to come away from the sides of pan and is golden brown and springy to the touch.
  7. 7 Set on a cake rack to cool for about 10 minutes. Run a thin knife around the sides of the pan to loosen. Invert pan onto the rack sprayed with nonstick coating and peel off the parchment paper. Invert again to finish cooling right-side up. Store the plain sponge layer under a glass dome or covered with aluminum foil at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze.

  2. 2 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Sift cake flour, then sift again with baking powder and salt; set aside.
  3. 3 Beat sugar and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy; add cake flour mixture alternately with milk, stirring the batter until smooth after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
  4. 4 Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff peaks form; fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the cake batter to lighten it, then quickly fold in remaining whites.
  5. 5 Fill face-side of the mold with batter. Gently move a wooden spoon through the batter to remove any air pockets, without disturbing the greased and floured surface of the mold. Put the lid on the mold, securely locking or tying it together so the steam and rising batter do not force the two sections apart. Place onto a cookie sheet.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until a skewer or wooden toothpick inserted through a steam vent comes out clean, about 1 hour. Transfer the mold to a wire rack for about 15 minutes, then carefully remove the top of the mold. Let the bottom of the cake cool in the mold until all the steam escapes and the cake firms up, about 5 more minutes. Remove the rest of the mold and let the cake cool completely. For best results, do not sit the cake upright until completely cooled.
  7. 7 Frost cooled lamb cake with your favorite white frosting using a star tip to create texture on the body. Add jelly beans for the eyes, and place on a bed of green coconut grass.

  4. 4 Beat remaining 1 cup sugar and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. 5 Combine milk and vanilla in a small bowl.
  6. 6 Stir flour mixture into butter mixture in several batches, alternating with milk mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture; stir until batter just comes together. Fold in pistachios until incorporated. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool in the muffin cups for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
