Instructions
  1. Add milk, egg and butter to bread machine pan.
  2. Add bread flour, 3 Tbsp sugar and salt to pan. Tap pan to settle dry ingredients, then level ingredients, pushing some of the mixture into corners.
  3. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients; add yeast. Lock pan into bread maker.
  4. Program for dough. Start bread maker. When done, unlock pan from bread maker. Place dough on floured surface. Knead dough about 1 minute, then let rest 15 minutes.
  5. Roll dough into a rectangle, about 15' x 10'. Spread 1/2 C melted butter over dough to within 1" of edges. Then sprinkle 1/4 C sugar and cinnamon evenly over dough. Roll dough up tightly on long side. Press edges to seal and form into a 12" long, evenly shaped roll. With a knife or thread of dental floss, cut roll into 1" pieces. Place rolls into greased 13" x 9" baking pan. Cover and let rise in warm, draft-free place until double in size, about 30-45 minutes.
  6. Bake in preheated 375F oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan on rack for 10-15 minutes.
  7. While cooling, make glaze by mixing confectioner's sugar with orange juice, stirring until smooth. While the rolls are still warm, drizzle glaze over top of rolls as evenly as possible. I left them in the pan, but you can cut them apart and remove from pan, whatever you prefer.

Recipe Notes

Pretty darn good!  I'm gong to try baking them at a lower temperature, for a bit longer.  I did try making them a bit thinner and cooking a bit less, didn't work as I'd hoped, so we'll go for lower temp for longer.  Otherwise, they were really good!

Recipe Notes

Original recipe:  http://365daysofeasyrecipes.com/cucumber-radish-pickled-salad/

I made this recipe because - oddly enough for me - I had leftover cucumber and radishes, and wanted something kind of light to go with lasagna, so roasting the radishes wasn't really working for me.

I used a yellow onion for mine because that's what I had on hand, but the original recipe calls for a red onion, and that would give a really nice color contrast, but I don't think there is a huge difference in flavor between yellow and red.  Maybe a little more punchy, so maybe use a small yellow onion instead of a medium red onion.

It doesn't appear that there is enough liquid for the veggies, so I went in after about an hour and tossed it again, and there was more liquid.  So I part of the minimum 2 hour time to sit is to let all the moisture come out and coat everything well.  But it tastes amazing - Steve really liked it!

Enjoy!

Instructions
  1. Cook bacon according to package instructions. Allow to cool and chop cooked bacon into small pieces.
  2. Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a bundt cake pan and coat with cocoa powder instead of flour.
  3. In a medium sized bowl, sift flour and cocoa powder. I usually sift my cocoa powder with a sieve instead of my actual sifter. Add baking powder and salt and set aside.
  4. In a microwave safe bowl, melt butter. Combine melted butter in mixing bowl with oil and sugar. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  5. Add eggs, one at a time, ensure that each egg is well beaten before adding the next one. After all eggs have been added, add the vanilla extract and sour cream.
  6. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the bourbon. First, pour in half of the dry ingredients and beat for 30 seconds before adding half of the bourbon. Repeat with remaining flour mixture and remaining bourbon.
  7. Pour batter in the greased coated bundt cake pan. Bake at 350°F for 45-50 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, your cake is done.
  8. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, place the wire rack on top of the bundt pan and flip it over. Gently tapping the sides to release the cake. You may want to put a piece of parchment paper or a plate over the cake before you flip it so you can easily move it off the wire rack without sticking. If the cake does not release, take a butter knife and gently insert along the edge of the pan to help release.
  9. For the glaze:
  10. Sift powered sugar. The step is necessary to create a smooth glaze.
  11. Melt butter in a saucepan. Once melted, continue to stir until butter turns a golden brown.
  12. Pour melted butter over powdered sugar. Add maple syrup and milk. Whisk until smooth.
  13. For a thicker glaze, add only 1 tablespoon of milk instead of two. Or add additional powered sugar. To make glaze thinner, add additional milk.
  14. This next step is optional and a little tricky. I like my glaze to drip off the sides of the cake and not pool up in the middle. However, it becomes difficult to move the cake once glazed. I happen to own a cake lift, but I suggest using two large knife to move the cake after glaze.
  15. Gently remove/side cake from plate and onto wire rack. Place a sheet of wax paper below wire rack (for easy clean up).
  16. Gently pour glaze over cake. Sprinkle with bacon pieces.

Instructions
  1. For Cake: Sift the flour, measure and resift 3 times with the baking powder and salt. Combine the spices and mix thoroughly with boiling water. Cream the butter until soft and smooth, blend in 3/4 C of the sugar, and add the beaten egg yolks. Beat until light and fluffy. Stir in spice mixture; then add flour mixture and milk alternately, beginning and ending with flour and beating until smooth after each addition. Beat egg whites, add remaining 1/4 C sugar, and continue beating until very stiff; fold into batter. Turn into two 8-inch cake pans which have been lined with thin plain paper in bottom. Bake in a moderate oven (350F) for about 25 minutes, until springy when pressed lightly with the finger tips. Cool 5 minutes before removing from pans and then turn out and cool thoroughly on cake racks. Put together with orange frosting.
  2. For Frosting: Cream butter until very soft and smooth; then add sugar gradually, creaming thoroughly. Add salt and orange rind. Gradually work in the orange juice using just enough to produce a smooth spreading consistence. Spread on cake (Sufficient for two 8-inch layers)
Recipe Notes

To make cake flour:  For 2 C cake flour,  mix 1 3/4 C all-purpose flour and 1/4 C corn starch.

I discovered that I had no round cake pans, so I ended up making a single layer cake in a 10" spring form pan.  Still took about 25 minutes, maybe closer to 30 in my oven, but the temperature was a bit less according to my oven thermometer.
