White Chocolate Lemon Truffles

Here is another recipe that showed up on my Facebook news feed. This one looks so sweetly delicious!

I did some searching on whose original recipe this is and came up with Sugarcoated's post here, who found it via Kitchen Simplicity. {[a lot of good recipes there, I might add]}

 

 Makes 24 truffles.

Ingredients:

1 cup, white chocolate

5 Tbsp, unsalted butter

3 Tbsp, heavy cream

pinch salt

1 tsp, lemon extract

icing sugar, for dusting

Directions:

Melt chocolate, butter and cream over a double boiler or in a microwave. Stir until smooth.

Stir in salt and extract.

Allow to cool slightly before covering with plastic wrap.

Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm enough to handle.

With a melon baller or small spoon, scoop out mixture and form into 1 inch balls.

Toss with icing sugar to coat.

Store covered in the fridge for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.

Kentucky Fried Chicken's Biscuits Recipe

I saw this recipe for KFC's biscuits on my Facebook news feed. And if anyone knows me at all, I absolutely love their biscuits! They're so warm, soft, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. So you can bet your bottom I will be making these maybe tonight or in the following week.

 Makes about 9 biscuits.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups, flour

1 1/2 tsp, salt

1 Tbsp, sugar

1 Tbsp, baking powder

2/3 cup, milk

1/3 cup, vegetable shortening

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425°

 Sift together flour, salt, sugar and baking powder into mixing bowl.

Make a well in the flour mix and add the milk.

Add shortening and begin kneading with hands {[to cut in]} the vegetable shortening and flour in the milk until thoroughly mixed.
Add milk, if needed to form, and mix.
Turn onto floured board, and knead gently 6 to 8 times.
Pat dough to 1/2-inch thickness.
Cut into biscuits.
Place on baking sheet and brown in oven 10-13 minutes.
