Serviettenapkin Tulip Version2 Recipes

SERVIETTE/NAPKIN, TULIP FOLD.

Steps:

• Lay your serviette square out flat before you in a diamond shape.
• Fold the South point of the diamond up to meet the North point of the diamond.
• Place one hand on the North point and the other at the center of the base of the triangle, lift the serviette up so that you create a ridged pleat that stands up between your fingers. Lay the serviette down flat so that you have a triangle with a raised ridge running vertically down the centre.
• Take the East point and bring it up to a point half way towards the North point, this will create a pleat in the right hand side, repeat with the West point.
• Slip the serviette ring onto the base of the serviette where the folds meet and pull about 1/3 of the way up.
• Fan out your tulip so that the central pleat and the sides are symetrical.

SERVIETTE/NAPKIN TULIP VERSION2

Steps:

• Lay your serviette square out flat before you.
• Take the bottom left and bottom right corners and fold them up 1/3rd of the way towards the top of the serviette.
• Then fold the top left and top right corners down 1/3rd of the way. You will now have a long thin rectangle that is 1/3rd the width of the serviette sequare.
• Take the right short end of the rectangle and fold it over to the center point of the serviette. Then repeat with the left short side. You will now have a little square with a vertical gap running down the middle.
• Then take the bottom right corner of the square and fold it 3/4 of the way up the center line so that a triangle forms at the bottom. Repreat with the bottom left corner. You should now have a square top and a triangular bottom (pointing downwards) to your shape.
• Carefully turn the serviette over (keeping the bottom of the triangle pointing down).
• Take the top right corner of the serviette and fold it just past the middle top centre line. Bring the left top corner over and tuck it into the right corner that you have just folded.
• Carefully turn the serviette over and you will see the tulip front, there will be a central petal and an outer petal on each side.
• Carefully fan out the outer petals and stand it on a plate.

COOKIE TULIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone sheet liner. Grease the outsides of 12 2-inch diameter baking glasses or small bowls.
• Mash the butter and white sugar together in a bowl until smooth, and mix in the flour, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and the egg whites to make a smooth batter. Drop about 2 1/2 tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, and use a spoon or spatula to spread the dough out into a very thin circle about 7 inches in diameter. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are very lightly browned at the edges and the centers are set, 7 to 9 minutes. Watch them carefully so they don't overbake. Pull the sheet from the oven, and immediately slip a spatula underneath each flat cookie; center and drape them over the greased glasses to harden into small wavy bowls. Allow to cool completely.
• While the cookies cool over their molds, beat the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar in a bowl until smooth; mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Remove green tops and cores from 5 strawberries; place them into a small bowl, and mash to a juicy, slightly lumpy texture; mix the strawberries into the cream cheese mixture. Gently fold the whipped topping into the strawberry cream until thoroughly combined.
• Spoon about 3 tablespoons of the strawberry cream into each cookie bowl, then top with a pretty fresh strawberry with green top. Store leftover cookies in an airtight container, and leftover cream in refrigerator.

TULIPES (FREE-FORM DESSERT CUPS)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Put the six tablespoons of butter and the sugar into a mixing bowl, and start beating with a wire whisk or with an electric mixer. Beat until light and creamy.
• Beat in the flour and vanilla.
• Beat the egg whites until they stand in soft peaks. Fold the whites into the creamed mixture.
• Select a baking sheet large enough to fit neatly in the oven. Brush the top surface with butter.
• Using a mixing or other round bowl that is five inches in diameter, invert it onto the baking sheet and trace a circle in the light butter coating. Make as many separately traced circles as possible; the maximum may be two or three to a sheet.
• Spoon one or two tablespoons of the batter into the center of each circle, one at a time. Carefully smooth the batter into one very thin layer, less than an eighth of an inch thick, to cover the circle. Continue filling the circles.
• Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake three to three and one-half minutes, watching carefully that the pastries do not burn. Remove the sheet from the oven and immediately lift up the circles one at a time, carefully shaping them while hot (place the brown bottom side up) in the center of a cup (a regular-shape rounded coffee cup or Chinese soup or rice bowl is suitable). When pushed into the center, the edges should be neatly fluted or ruffled. Let cool and remove from the mold.
