Raspberry And Oatmeal Swirls Recipes

RASPBERRY AND OATMEAL SWIRLS

Steps:

• Set aside six glasses, each with 3/4-cup capacity. In a food processor or blender, combine frozen berries and sugar, and purée for 2 to 3 minutes to make a smooth thick sauce.
• Spoon about 2 teaspoons raspberry purée into each glass, and top with about 2 tablespoons yogurt. Sprinkle with a layer of cookie crumbs. Make another layer of 2 tablespoons yogurt and top with 2 teaspoons purée. At this point the swirls may be covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated. To serve, top each swirl with a final layer of cookie crumbs.

RASPBERRY AND OATMEAL SWIRLS

Steps:

• Put the frozen raspberries into a blender with the sugar, and puree. You may have to be patient as they will be difficult to blitz at first since they are extremely hard when frozen.
• Spoon 1 to 2 teaspoons of the raspberry puree into each glass, top with 2 tablespoons of the yogurt and sprinkle a layer of cookie crumbs on top.
• Cover the crumbs with 1 more layer of yogurt, then raspberry puree and finally cookie crumbs again.
• These can be prepared the night before, in which case don't sprinkle the final layer of cookie crumbs until you are ready to eat the swirls but leave the glasses with the yogurt on top, covered with plastic wrap.

SUNNY'S RASPBERRY AND OATMEAL LATTICE COOKIE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick aluminum foil.
• Melt the base. In a medium pot on medium heat, add the brown sugar, butter and pumpkin pie spice. Cook, stirring, until the butter melts and the mixture is less gritty.
• Finish the batter. In a large bowl, add the oats, flour, almond extract and egg and toss. Slowly add the butter mixture from the pot while constantly stirring the oat mixture.
• Bake and rest. Use a teaspoon to drop the batter on the prepared baking sheet about 3 inches apart to allow spreading. This will take patience and several batches. Also, to avoid a big glob, try to gently press the oats so they aren't in a mound.
• Bake on the center rack until the edges are caramelized and the centers stop rapidly bubbling, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove and leave on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer the entire sheet of parchment onto a wire rack. After a few more minutes, transfer the cookies from the parchment to rest directly on the wire rack. Continue until all the batter is cooked and the cookies are fully cool and rigid, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Fill and serve. Pick 2 cookies with approximately the same size and shape and spread about 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry jam on the bottom/flat side of one cookie, then sandwich the matching cookie's bottom/flat side to the other; repeat until done. Store in an airtight container in a cool place, even the fridge, for up to 1 week. Happy holidays and happy cookie making!

RASPBERRY SWIRL ICE CREAM

Steps:

• To make the ice cream, warm the milk, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan. Pour the cream into a large bowl and set a mesh strainer over the top.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Slowly pour the warm milk into the egg yolks, whisking constantly, then scrape the warmed egg yolks back into the saucepan.
• Stir the mixture constantly over medium heat with a heatproof spatula, scraping the bottom as you stir, until the mixture thickens and coats the spatula. Pour the custard through the strainer and stir it into the cream. Add the vanilla and stir until cool over an ice bath. Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator.
• An hour or so before churning the ice cream, make the raspberry swirl by mashing the raspberries together with the sugar and vodka with a fork (if using frozen raspberries, let them thaw a bit first) until they're juicy but with nice-sized chunks of raspberries remaining. Chill until ready to use.
• Freeze the ice cream custard in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. As you remove it from the machine, layer it in the container with spoonfuls of the chilled raspberry swirl mixture.
• To make Blackberry Swirl Ice Cream, substitute blackberries for the raspberries and add 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice to the mixture.
• Sandwich Raspberry Swirl Ice Cream between Oatmeal Ice Cream Sandwich Cookies (page 226) or Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwich Cookies (page 223).
