Stuffpoint


Hello everyone! I would like to show you one of my favorite treats. These Fried Strawberry Pies are MOUTHWATERING. One bite and I was in love. I dare you to try them. The recipe is below.

Ingredients
2 cups fresh strawberries, mashed
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 (15-ounce) package refrigerated piecrusts
Vegetable oil
Powdered sugar

How to Make It

1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a saucepan. Bring strawberry mixture to a boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute or until thickened. Cool completely.

2. Roll 1 piecrust to press out fold lines; cut into 9 circles with a 3-inch round cutter. Roll circles to 3 1/2-inch diameter; moisten edges with water. Spoon 2 teaspoons strawberry mixture in the center of each circle; fold over, pressing edges to seal. Repeat with remaining piecrust and strawberry mixture.

3. Place pies in a single layer on a baking sheet, and freeze at least 1 hour.

4. Pour oil to a depth of 1 inch into a large heavy skillet; heat to 350°. Fry pies, in batches, 1 minute on each side or until golden. Drain on paper towels; sprinkle with powdered sugar.

I hope you enjoy! This recipe was found at Southern Living. Make sure you check them out!

Birthday Madness

(From Left to Right) Annette, Elise, Kaitlyn, Nathan, Abbey, Ally, Me, My Dad (Bill)

Hello Again! Today I would like to tell you about my birthday! My birthday was a while ago, February 6th, to be exact. I turned thirteen, and I had a blast. Me and my friends went to Breakout Games, and we had to escape out of a casino. When tokens fell out of the slot machine, we all screamed and fell on the floor! We made it out, with seconds left! It was intense, but so much fun! We went back and ate cake, opened presents, and goofed around a bit.

With my family, we went to Outback. I got a spicy steak. When we got home, we opened my presents (thanks everyone for the gifts!) and ate cake. I got a white-chocolate raspberry cake from Nothing Bundt Cakes. It was delicious!
That's all for today! Thanks for stopping by, and thanks to everyone who celebrated with me!

The Best Vanilla Cake I've Ever Had

Have you ever eaten something, and just felt like saying, "Oh my goodness, this is the best thing I have ever had!"? That's what I said when I made this delicious vanilla cake with my friend, Allyson. We were planning on making a roll cake, but her oven was tilted, and half of it was burned (luckily, there was enough of it not burned for us to try it)! Here's the recipe! 🎂 

Ingredients
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375F.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar for 3-4 minutes, until thick and pale yellow. Beat in the water and vanilla. Beat in the flour, baking powder and salt, beating just until smooth.

Line a shallow rimmed baking sheet - about 10x15 inches - with parchment or foil, and if you use foil, butter it or spray it with nonstick spray. Pour in the batter and smooth it to fill the pan to every edge. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until golden and springy to the touch.

Sweet Strawberry Cobbler

Sometimes, you get SUPER bored. During times like that I think to myself, "What do you want to do?"  Then I reply to myself with, "I really don't know." Then, I eventually come to the answer. On this particular occasion - I replied with, "I know! Let's bake!" But if you're lazy (like I can be), you think baking is too much work sometimes. I ended up searching the web for super easy baking recipes. Finally, I found something that used Bisquick Mix, because everything's easier with Bisquick Mix. So without further ado - I present to you: Sweet Strawberry Cobbler.

Step 1

For this recipe, you will need 1 pint (2 cups) of fresh strawberries, 1 cup Bisquick Mix, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg, and 1 stick of butter.


Step 2

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 3

Remove the leaves and quarter the strawberries.


Step 4

Lay the quartered strawberries evenly in your baking dish.


Step 5

Mix your Bisquick Mix and your sugar - your dry ingredients.


 Step 6

Mix your egg into the dry mixture. Please note that the mixture is clumpy. It is supposed to be like that.

Step 7

Sprinkle your mixture onto your strawberry baking dish.


Step 8

Microwave your butter until it is melted all the way.


Step 9

Drizzle your butter over your strawberries and dry mixture.

Step 10

Bake your cobbler for 35-40 minutes.



Step 11

Waiting... waiting... waiting...


Done! Your cobbler should look just like this when it's finished!

Feel free to top with whipped cream or serve with ice cream! I hope this dessert tastes as good to you as it does to me! Enjoy!

 (I got master whipped cream skills. Don't Judge.)

The original recipe came from Mostly Homemade Mom.  You can get her original recipe here!
