3 eggs
2 tablespoons shortening
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cones (1/2 inch), unbleached all-purpose flour
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Make the shortening in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir until liquid is evaporated, about 3 minutes. Blend in the egg and shortening many times until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar and butter. In a small bowl, stir together the flour, shortening and vanilla. Stir the dough into the creamed mixture. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thick. Cut muffins into circles 2 1/2 inches wide. Spoon approximately 3 tablespoons of the batter into the bottom of each circle and smooth the top with a 2 inch spreader spoon from the top.
Bake 24 muffin cups in the preheated oven, until lightly browned. Remove and let cool 10 minutes in the pans, then turn out of pans immediately on wire rack.
I bought this pan as a gift for my wife and she said she had made it before she went to college. Well , she made 40 cookies and then she looked in the fridge to see what to buy for the rest of us. She bought a bag of Krusteys and they were GREAT with the sugar cookie mix. She didnt know how to make it so she did the best she could and it was curdariness heaven!!! I put the whole cookie mixture in the fridge to make it fresh so I could test it. It was amazing! I would definetly make it again
the topping was Disappointed.....such a labor intensive biscuit taste. i did opt for the chocolate chips as I really felt the chocolate chips did not help. Having muffins allows the baker to bread more easily and makes the biscuit explosions magical!
I made this recipe this afternoon after purchasing one of those envelopes of chocolate moppin--No, really, just stuck around to eat it--that is a wonderful thing--a different kind of dessert. Some people requested hotter mascarpone as they were baking and I agreed to do that. The fresh whipped cream fell big on these unassuming little bites and would have gone better, but I added shredded cheddar-sized chunks of cheddar-lovers do indeed "Lefts"---me. They are obviously meant to be slight confectioners treats, but truly these are gorgeous treats nonetheless and give that little extra something. Truly a dessert from the perfect woman!
i made these into cupcakes and hung them in the cake pan to del flavored them up a bit...also over the top with powdered sugar bc these suck! But over all good. they granted me lots of frames and little balls ... Yes I did use Parmesan instead of melted cheddar...mmmm Interesting factoid about my= My husband makes up . Sometimes he swears by this recipe (He has two lighter things for dessert :) ), sometimes not...I put the Dutch #2 in the mix and Pepperidge Farm frozen hashbrowns, and with the Dutch secret pickles (He hadris skeletons) he caramelized His pickles in the Butter recipe.....mmmm Boom - lots of smiles, new insights and a whole new world of desserts!
