Scuffles Recipes

SCUFFLES AKA CINNAMON TWISTS

Steps:

• Add flour and baking powder together in large bowl; mix to combine
• Cut butter into flour mixture until crumbly; add milk and eggs, stirring just until dough comes together to form a ball
• Divide into 4 discs; cover each securely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or overnight until ice cold
• Weigh flour and baking powder into TM bowl: mix to combine for 5 seconds at speed 3
• Weigh cold butter cubes into flour mixture in TM bowl; use hand or wooden spoon to mix butter cubes inside TM bowl with flour (without machine running)
• Mix to combine from 0-10 for 15 seconds until coarse crumbles (similar to oatmeal)
• Weigh milk and eggs into TM bowl; combine for 30 seconds at speed 3 to 8 until mixture just comes together in clumps (be sure to not over mix)
• Divide dough into 4 discs; cover each securely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or overnight until ice cold
• Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle generous amount on work surface
• Divide dough into 8 equal balls; refrigerate seven and place one on top of cinnamon sugar
• Roll dough out 1/8th-inch thick into circle (as you would pie crust) on sugar/cinnamon mixture
• Divide circle of dough into 4, then into 8 triangular pieces: a pizza or pastry cutter works great for this
• Start at the wide end of your triangle and roll triangle toward its point similar to rolling a croissant; place each on cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 18-20 minutes

CHEESE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Use room temperature butter to grease an 8-inch souffle mold. Add the grated Parmesan and roll around the mold to cover the sides. Cover with plastic wrap and place into the freezer for 5 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a small saucepan, heat the butter. Allow all of the water to cook out.
• In a separate bowl combine the flour, dry mustard, garlic powder, and kosher salt. Whisk this mixture into the melted butter. Cook for 2 minutes.
• Whisk in the hot milk and turn the heat to high. Once the mixture reaches a boil, remove from the heat.
• In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks to a creamy consistency. Temper the yolks into the milk mixture, constantly whisking. Remove from the heat and add the cheese. Whisk until incorporated.
• In a separate bowl, using a hand mixer, whip the egg whites and cream of tartar until glossy and firm. Add 1/4 of the mixture to the base. Continue to add the whites by thirds, folding very gently.
• Pour the mixture into the souffle. Fill the souffle to 1/2-inch from the top. Place on an aluminum pie pan. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes.

UKRAINIAN SCUFFLES {OR, TINY CINNAMON SUGAR ROLLS}

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let stand 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
• Next, in a large bowl, stir together the flour, 3 Tbs. sugar and salt.
• Add the butter, cutting it in with a fork or pastry cutter as if you were making pie crust.
• In a smaller bowl, mix together the milk, eggs, and yeast mixture, then add to the dry ingredients.
• Mix well (by hand) and knead a few times until you've got a round ball of dough. Add flour as needed if it's super sticky.
• Cover bowl and refrigerate overnight (important, you need to keep the dough chilled so overnight is perfect!)
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F. Divide dough into 6 parts (about the sie of a baseball), keeping one part out and putting the rest back in the fridge until ready for it.
• Scatter your counter generously with sugar and cinnamon (and flour if needed), and roll each piece into a circle on the sugar. Ensure your dough is thin. I use a dinner plate upside down to trace and cut a circle in the dough, if I have enough space I'll even cut an inch or so outside the circle. Put back remaining dough in the fridge in a smaller bowl, to use at the end with all the other discarded pieces.
• Cut your circle into wedges like a pie. I typically end up with 12-16 pieces depending on how large my circle is.
• Roll each wedge from the widest side inward to the skinniest.
• Place on a baking sheet about about 1 inch apart and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden.
• Remove from baking sheet immediately and cool, then start your next batch!

CHOCOLATE SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Brush 6 (6-ounce) ramekins with soft butter, then coat with sugar. Put the prepared ramekins in the freezer. (This can be done a day ahead.)
• Set an oven rack in lower third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Put the chocolate and butter in a medium heatproof bowl. Bring a saucepan filled with an inch or so of water to a very slow simmer; set the bowl over, but not touching, the water. Stir the chocolate occasionally until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Set aside.
• Combine the egg yolks and warm water in the bowl of a standing mixer or large bowl and beat until frothy. Gradually add 2 tablespoons sugar, and continue beating until ribbons form, about 5 minutes. Very lightly fold the yolks into the chocolate mixture. (Rinse the bowl well, if using for beating the egg whites.)
• Remove prepared ramekins from freezer. Put the egg whites in the bowl of a standing mixer, or large non-reactive bowl, add the lemon juice. Beat on medium until frothy; then gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and increase speed to high. Beat until the whites hold a stiff but not dry peak.
• Working quickly, fold about a third of the egg whites into the chocolate to lighten; then fold in remaining whites until blended. Gently ladle or spoon the souffle mixture into the ramekins, and place on a baking sheet. (Level off the surface with a straight edge, scraping any excess mixture back into the bowl.)
• Immediately bake until the souffle rises about 1 1/2 inches from the ramekins, and the tops are touched with brown, about 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven, dust with confectioners' sugar and serve immediately.

CHAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat a waffle maker.
• Whisk egg in a small bowl and stir in mozzarella cheese.
• Pour 1/2 of the batter onto the preheated waffle maker, spreading it out from the center with a spoon. Close the waffle maker and cook until the steaming stops and the chaffle is well browned, about 3 minutes. Don't overcook, as that will make it chewy. Repeat process with remaining batter.

EASY CHOCOLATE SOUFFLES

Steps:

• Separate eggs; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Coat six 6-oz. souffle dishes with cooking spray. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of sugar into each dish, tilting to cover the bottom and sides; set aside., Preheat oven to 375°. In a large bowl, whisk corn syrup, cocoa, egg yolks and vanilla until blended; set aside. In a large bowl with clean beaters, beat egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in remaining sugar on high until stiff peaks form. Gently fold a fourth of the egg white mixture into chocolate mixture; fold in remaining egg white mixture., Spoon batter into prepared dishes. Bake 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm.

CHEF JOHN'S CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Brush bottom and sides of 2 (5-ounce) ramekins lightly with 1 teaspoon melted butter; cover bottom and sides right up to the rim. Add 1 tablespoon white sugar to ramekins. Rotate ramekins until sugar coats all surfaces. Pour off extra sugar.
• Place chocolate pieces in a metal mixing bowl. Place bowl over a pan of about 3 cups hot water over low heat. Do not let water boil or come to a simmer.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle in flour. Whisk until flour is incorporated into butter and mixture thickens, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low. Whisk in cold milk until mixture becomes smooth and thickens, 2 or 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Transfer mixture to bowl with melted chocolate. Add salt and very small pinch of cayenne pepper. Mix together thoroughly. Add egg yolk and mix to combine. Leave bowl above the hot (not simmering) water to keep chocolate warm while you whip the egg whites.
• Place 2 egg whites in a mixing bowl; add cream of tartar. Whisk until mixture begins to thicken and a drizzle from the whisk stays on the surface about 1 second before disappearing into the mix, 2 or 3 minutes. Add 1/3 of sugar and whisk in. Whisk in a bit more sugar about 15 seconds; whisk in the rest of the sugar. Continue whisking until mixture is about as thick as shaving cream and holds soft peaks, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer a little less than half of egg whites to chocolate. Mix until egg whites are thoroughly incorporated into the chocolate, 1 or 2 minutes. Add the rest of the egg whites; gently fold into the chocolate with a spatula, lifting from the bottom and folding over. Stop mixing after the egg white disappears. Divide mixture between 2 prepared ramekins. Place ramekins on prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until scuffles are puffed and have risen above the top of the rims, 12 to 15 minutes.

UKRAINIAN SCUFFLES

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water and let stand 10 minutes.
• Mix the flour, salt, 3 Tablespoons sugar and butter as for pie crust.
• Add to the dry ingredients and milk and eggs, and the yeast mixture. Mix well and knead dough until soft. Put in a bowl, cover and store in the refrigerator overnight. This dough is very soft and must be chilled before use.
• Divide dough into 6 parts, keeping one part out and putting the rest back in the fridge until ready for it.
• Roll dough out on a mixture of the 1 cup sugar and cinnamon. Try to keep the shape of the rolled dough as round as possible. Cut into wedges, 12 per round if the thickness is 1/8 inch. Roll from wide end to narrow end.
• Place on a lightly greased baking sheet about 1 inch apart and bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 350°F Remove from baking sheet immediately and cool well. These freeze very well.
• If you wish to prepare a few pans before baking keep them in the fridge until ready for baking, otherwise they will start to rise.

• Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Sprinkle a clean surface with about 1 tbsp of sugar mixture. On sprinkled surface, use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll out one ball into a round about 1/8 inch thick; flip dough over while rolling to get sugar mixture on both sides. Cut round into 8 wedges. Starting with wide end, roll up each wedge jelly-roll fashion. Gently pinch centre of rolls to secure.
• Repeat procedure with remaining sugar mixture and balls.
• Place rolls in parchment paper-lined rimmed baking sheets.
• Bake until rolls are lightly browned, about 16-18 minutes.

CINNAMON SUGAR SCUFFLES (UKRAINIAN SCUFFLES)

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and let stand 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, 3 Tbsp. sugar and salt.
• Add the butter, cutting it in with a fork or pastry cutter as if you were making pie crust. I have never made a pie crust so for those confused as I was, simply add the butter gradually, and piece it up with your fork until you have pea-sized amounts in the mixture.
• Add the milk, eggs, and yeast mixture to the dry ingredients.
• Mix well (by hand) and knead a few times until you've got a round ball of dough.
• Cover bowl and refrigerate overnight (important, you need to keep the dough chilled so overnight is perfect!)
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F. Divide dough into 6 parts, keeping one part out and putting the rest back in the fridge until ready for it.
• Scatter your counter generously with sugar and cinnamon, and roll each piece into a circle on the sugar. I used a tea saucer placed on top and cut around it to create the perfect circle.
• Cut your circle into wedges like a pie. I cut mine into 4 pieces and then cut each in half so I ended up with 8 wedges from each circle.
• Roll each wedge from the widest side inward to the skinniest.
• Place on a baking sheet about about 1 inch apart and bake for 10 minutes, or until golden.
• Remove from baking sheet immediately and cool.
