Lazy Clotted Cream

 Lazy Clotted Cream 🙃 Clotted Cream Recipe from Pants Down Aprons On (https://youtube.com/@PantsDownApronsOn). This post isn't an ad or sponsored. I just wanted to share my Half Birthday adventure with you all ♥️ @PantsDownApronsOn recipe didn't involve canned Thick Cream, but he did say that it's a versatile recipe that can be used for pasteurized milk products with 35% Fat. However, this Thick Cream only had 25% Fat, so I added more Butter than recommended to make up for the lack of fat. Recipe: - 1 can of Carnation Thick Cream (or any kind of canned Thick Cream with a fat content of 25% or higher) - 2 thick slices of Unsalted Butter Cooking Instructions: 1. Pour the whole can of Thick Cream on a pan on medium high heat and add Butter and whisk together. 2. Reduce heat to ensure that it doesn't burn and cook until slightly thickened. 3. Place hot Cream mixture into containers and let it set in the fridge for about 10 mins to 1 hour. 4. Enjoy with a Scone or anyway yo...

Heart Shaped Challah Bread French Toast Bites

Image
 Heart Shaped Challah Bread French Toast Bites Recipe Valentine's day is almost upon us and what better way to celebrate the person/people you love than these cute bites of love?!  Usually whenever I make French Toast, I let the bread sit overnight in the fridge in the egg mix, but I tried that with this recipe and it caused more issues (the bread falling apart). So, I highly recommend against using the  latter method and recommend frying your heart bites immediately after dipping it in your egg/milk batter while utilizing the low and slow method.  The low and slow method for me is cooking on a high temperature initially and lowering it to medium or low to slowly cook your bites while continually flipping them. ^This is what happens when you don't utilize the low and slow method. You get blobs instead of hearts. I was impatient initially because I was excited and this happened to me 😒  ^Patience is a virtue and will yeild beautiful results like this! You can us...
