Guess God didn't want us here in SW Louisiana to feel left out so he gave us a good ice storm Thursday night and Friday morning. Did not get as bad as it was suppose to Thankfully. I took a day of vacation since son was suppose to go to a "Dead of Winter Poetry" retreat. It is a weekend of intense poetry writing, in the end they should have a least one poem that can be published. You have to submit poems and they are reviewed by teachers and then they choose who to invite to attend. Guess son is getting head start on song writing skills LOL! Since this got cancelled due to our ice storm, I decided to still take my vacation day. Got up and was in a cooking mood so made Mexican Cornbread, Gumbo (chicken & chicken sausage) and Bread Machine King Cake. Using the stove also helped warm the house. Here is my Bread Maching King Cake Recipe...not even sure where it came from to start with or would give credit to them.
Bread Machine King Cake
3 oz Water
3 oz Milk
1 egg
3 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
4 TBLSP butter or margarine
1/3 cup sugar
1 ½ tsp active dry yeast
Filling
¼ cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup sugar mixed (white and brown)
¾ cup ground cinnamon
Combine first eight ingredients into the bread pan of the bread machine. Select the dough setting then, press start.
When dough is ready roll on to lightly floured surface, into 28 inch by 10 inch rectangle. Spread with softened butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture.
Roll jelly roll fashion, beginning with long side. Place on greased baking sheet and form a ring by placing the ends together. Cover with kitchen towel and place in a warm place to rise for 30 min or until it doubles in size. Once it rises bake in 350 degree oven for 20 minutes until golden brown.
