Best 5 Strawberry Santas Recipe By Tasty Recipes

MINI STRAWBERRY SANTAS

Steps:

• Cut the hulled-side strawberries so they can stand up on a plate. Slice the tip off each strawberry to make the 'hat'; set aside.
• Beat cream and confectioners' sugar in a glass or metal bowl until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream will form soft mounds.
• Spoon a large dollop of whipped cream on top of strawberry base for the 'face' and 'beard'. Set the 'hat' atop the 'face'. Add a dot of whipped cream, using a toothpick, on top of the 'hat' for the 'pom-pom' and 2 dots on the strawberry base for 'buttons'. Place 2 sprinkles on the 'face' for 'eyes'.

Steps:

• For the frosting: In a medium bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the mascarpone and vanilla until smooth. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar until the mixture is thick and smooth. Using a spatula, transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a small star piping tip.
• For the Santas: Using a paring knife, cut off the leaf-end of each strawberry to make a flat surface. Cut a 1/2- to 3/4-inch piece from the pointed end of each strawberry and reserve as the hats.
• Place the strawberries, wide-side down, on a work surface. Pipe a 3/4-inch-high swirl of frosting on each strawberry. Place the hats on top and pipe a small ball of frosting on top of the hats. Press two chocolate chips, pointed-sides inward, into the swirl of frosting to make eyes.

STRAWBERRY DAIFUKU MOCHI RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the red bean paste: Rinse the adzuki beans in a colander under cold running water. Pick out any damaged beans and discard.
• Add the beans and 1¼ cups (300 grams) of water to a rice cooker. Cook on the "normal" setting for about 1½ hours. The beans should still be firm.
• Transfer the beans back to the colander and rinse under cold running water. Return the beans to the rice cooker and add the remaining ½ cup (120 grams) of water. Cook on the "normal" setting for another 1½ hours, until the beans are very tender and cooked through.
• Add the sugar and salt and stir to combine with a rubber spatula. Close the lid of the rice cooker and let sit for 30 minutes for the beans to absorb the sugar.
• Transfer the beans to a medium bowl and mash with a wooden spoon until mostly smooth.
• Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the bean paste on the prepared baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and let cool to room temperature, until pliable with a texture similar to play dough. If too dry, refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight, to chill. If it is too sticky, microwave in 90-second intervals until the water has evaporated. The red bean paste will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Let come to room temperature before proceeding.
• Make the mochi dough: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the mochiko, sugar, dragon fruit powder, and water until very smooth. Push the dough through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean microwave-safe bowl if needed to remove any lumps. (Alternatively, combine the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth).
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and microwave the dough in 60-second intervals, stirring between, until the mochi is halfway transparent, 3-4 minutes total. Continue microwaving in 15-30-seconds intervals, stirring between, until fully transparent and glossy, 1-2 minutes more.
• Use a sieve to generously dust a clean surface with cornstarch.
• Turn the mochi dough onto the dusted surface and let the steam release for about 1 minute. Dust the dough with more cornstarch. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough to a ½-inch-thick 6-inch square. With a pizza cutter, cut the dough into 4 3-inch squares.
• Make the daifuku: Roll the red bean paste into 4 small balls, about 15 grams each. Flatten a ball in the palms of your hands and wrap around a strawberry, starting from the bottom tip and up and over the stem end (if your hands are too sticky, very lightly dampen with water). Repeat with the remaining strawberries. Place the wrapped fruit on a tray and cover with plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Assemble the mochi: Set a square of mochi dough in your palm. Place a wrapped strawberry in the center of the mochi with the bottom tip pointing down. Bring the edges of the dough up and over the strawberry to seal. If it is too sticky, dust your fingers with cornstarch. Blot the seam side on the cornstarch-dusted surface and trim off any excess mochi dough if necessary (save the scraps for a snack). Set the mochi seam-side down and repeat with the remaining dough and fruit.
• Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
• Enjoy!

MATCHA STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE BARS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
• Make the matcha crust: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and matcha powder. Add the melted coconut oil and vanilla, and mix with a rubber spatula or an electric hand mixer on low speed until the texture is similar to cookie dough.
• Press the dough into the prepared baking pan in an even layer and poke holes across the surface with a fork. Chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
• Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes, or until the top looks slightly cooked through. Remove from the oven and let cool while you make the filling. Leave the oven on.
• Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, whip together the cream cheese, sugar, and salt with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add the cornstarch, Planet Oat® Vanilla Oatmilk, and lemon juice, and mix on medium-low speed until well combined, about 5 minutes. Pour the filling over the crust.
• Bake the cheesecake for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges look firm. Without opening the door, turn the oven off and let the cheesecake continue to bake from the residual heat for 10 minutes.
• Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let cool completely at room temperature, about 2 hours.
• Lift the parchment to remove the cheesecake from the pan and cut into 12 equal pieces.
• Just before serving, dust the freeze-dried strawberry powder all over the cheesecake and garnish with sliced strawberries.
• Enjoy!
