GIANT CINNAMON ROLL RECIPE BY TASTY



Giant Cinnamon Roll Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: unsalted butter, whole milk, granulated sugar, active dry yeast, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, butter, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, cream cheese, butter, whole milk, vanilla extract, powdered sugar

Provided by Scott Loitsch

Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the pan
2 cups whole milk, warm to the touch
½ cup granulated sugar
1 pack active dry yeast
5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
¾ cup butter, softened
¾ cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
4 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Generously butter a 1-inch (2.5 cm) cast-iron skillet or cake pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, and granulated sugar. The mixture should be just warm, registering between 100-110˚F (40˚C). If hotter, allow to cool slightly before proceeding.
  • Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the warm mixture and let sit for 1 minute. Add 4 cups of the flour to the milk mixture and mix with a wooden spoon until just combined. Cover the bowl with a towel or plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.
  • After 1 hour, the dough should have nearly doubled in size. Remove the towel and add an additional ¾ cup (95 grams) of flour, the baking powder, and salt. Stir well, then turn out onto a well-floured surface.
  • Knead the dough lightly, adding additional flour as necessary, until the dough just loses its stickiness and does not stick to the surface.
  • Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about ½ inch (1.5 cm) thick. Fix corners to make sure they are sharp and even.
  • Make the filling: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, light brown sugar, and cinnamon.
  • Spread the filling mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough, spreading right to the edges.
  • Using a pizza cutter, make 3 horizontal cuts to divide the dough into 4 long, evenly-sized strips. Starting from the top, roll the first strip up from right to left. Take the first roll and place it on top of the next strip, starting again on the right side and rolling up right to left, building on the first. Continue with the remaining strips until you have a giant cinnamon roll.
  • Place the giant cinnamon roll in the prepared skillet or cake pan and cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm spot and leave to rise for 30 minutes. The cinnamon roll should expand to the edges of the pan during this time.
  • Preheat the oven to 325˚F (160˚C).
  • Uncover the cinnamon roll and bake for 45 minutes. Cover the roll with foil to prevent the outside from burning, and bake for an additional 35 minutes.
  • While the cinnamon roll is baking, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, butter, milk, vanilla, and powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Remove the cinnamon roll from the oven and let cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes. Once cool, remove from the pan and drizzle the frosting over the roll before serving.
  • Enjoy!

GIANT DOUBLE DECKER TACO



Giant Double Decker Taco image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups vegetable oil
4 large flour tortillas
3/4 cup grated Mexican blend cheese
Ground Beef Taco Meat, recipe follows
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, shaved
1/2 cup sour cream or Mexican crema, stirred slightly to loosen
2 Roma tomatoes, diced
Sliced pickled jalapeños, for garnish
Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
1 pound ground chuck or sirloin-the leaner the better
5 ounces Mexican chorizo, removed from casing
1 small yellow onion, minced
1 tablespoon chipotle powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 cloves garlic, grated on a rasp
1/2 cup tomato puree
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Fit a sheet pan with a wire rack.
  • Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a large braiser or cast-iron skillet.
  • Using tongs, slip half of a tortilla in the hot oil to form a taco shell shape. Using a metal spatula with the other hand, keep half the tortilla submerged until golden. Turn the tortilla so that the fried part now sticks out of the oil, letting the bottom fry, while making sure to keep the tortilla open about 2 inches wide. (This creates the necessary space to stuff it!) Then gently turn the tortilla and repeat the process so that the remaining side fries to a golden brown while the rest stays out of the oil. Let the taco shell drain on the lined sheet pan. Fry another tortilla in this manner; reserve the other two tortillas.
  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Place one unfried tortilla in a pan and top it edge to edge with cheese. Lightly broil until the cheese is just melted, but the tortilla isn't toasted. While still hot, "stick" the cheesy, non-crispy tortilla to the outside of a fried tortilla shell. Repeat with the remaining tortilla, cheese and fried shell.
  • Now build! Fill the cavity of the taco with some warm Taco Meat, followed by some lettuce, a drizzle of sour cream, tomatoes, jalapeños and cilantro.
  • Serve with your favorite taco bib.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat. Add the beef and chorizo and brown, breaking the meat up constantly into smaller little bits, until no longer pink, 6 to 8 minutes. (If there is a lot of rendered fat, remove all but 1 tablespoon of the fat.)
  • Add the onions, chipotle powder and cumin. Cook until the onions are soft, another 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for just another 30 seconds. Add the tomato puree and simmer, stirring frequently, for another 10 minutes. You want this taco meat to be pretty "tight" and dehydrated, not soupy or loose! Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup uncooked instant rice
½ cup water
1 ½ pounds ground beef
¾ (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning mix
½ (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
½ (8.75 ounce) can no-salt-added whole-kernel corn, drained
½ cup water
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Stir the rice and 1/2 cup water together in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover, and cook in the microwave on High for 6 minutes until the water is fully absorbed; set aside. While the rice is cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and stir in the ground beef. Cook and stir until the beef is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease.
  • Reduce heat to medium, and stir in the taco seasoning, corn, 1/2 cup water, 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, and the cooked rice. Cook and stir until the cheese has melted and the corn is hot. Spoon the mixture into the flour tortillas. Roll into a tight cylinder, and pack into an 8x11-inch baking dish (it will be a tight squeeze). Pour the salsa over top, and sprinkle evenly with 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese topping has melted and is beginning to brown, about 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your taco roll will taste. This means using fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices.
  • Don't overstuff the taco roll: If you overstuff the taco roll, it will be difficult to roll up and will likely fall apart. Aim for a filling that is about 1/2-inch thick.
  • Use a variety of fillings: Don't be afraid to get creative with your fillings. You can use anything from beef or chicken to shrimp or tofu. You can also add vegetables, cheese, and sauces.
  • Roll the taco roll tightly: Once you have filled the taco roll, roll it up tightly. This will help to keep the filling inside and prevent it from falling out.
  • Cook the taco roll until it is golden brown: Cook the taco roll until it is golden brown on all sides. This will help to crisp up the tortilla and give it a delicious flavor.

Conclusion:

The giant taco roll is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for parties or potlucks. It is also a great way to use up leftover ingredients. With a little creativity, you can create a taco roll that is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you are looking for a fun and delicious meal, give the giant taco roll a try.
