Directions

1. Browned Butter Gingerbread Cake — Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a baking tray, set aside. In a mixing bowl mix melted browned butter, molasses, brown sugar, and egg, until lump free. Combine all the dry ingredients, mix well then pour it into the wet mix. Stir and add hot water slowly while mixing the batter. Once the mix is smooth and lump free, pour the batter into the baking tray, and tap a few times to remove trapped air bubbles. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the centre runs clear on the toothpick test. Cake can be made days in advance, it also holds well frozen.

2. Whipped Cream Cream Cheese Icing — One recipe yields about 3 cups of frosting, triple the recipe to make frosting, tree pines decorations, and cake filling or double the recipe for a more naked cake look. Mix water and agar powder, let it sit for 5-10 minutes to bloom. Heat it in the microwave on a 10 seconds interval until the agar is dissolved or heat on low medium heat on a stove until the agar simmer. Set aside. Whip the cream cheese using the paddle attachment until it is spreadable ( 1-2 minutes is enough), then add the icing sugar and whip it with a whisk attachment. Scrape the bowl from time to time, and beat for another minute. Pour the whipping cream into the cream cheese mixture, and scrape the bowl to make sure all cream cheese is incorporated nicely. Whip until cream is at soft/ medium peak. Take a couple tablespoons of the cream and mix it to the agar paste, then pour it into the whipped cream cheese bowl. Beat for another minute on medium high speed, let it chill in the fridge for at least an hour before piping.

3. Candy Cane Cream Cheese Filling — Combine 1 cup of whipped cream cheese with Suncore Foods® Red Beet Powder and put in 12 inch piping bag. Fill another 12 inch piping bag with the rest of plain whipped cream cheese. Stuff both piping bags into a 16 inch piping bag with a round tip.

4. Pine Trees Decorations — Use any small star piping tip and fill a piping bag with the green colored frosting. Put the cone upside down and start pipping from the bottom cones with random star patterns to make realistic pine trees. Leave the cone tip unpiped, and pipe it after settling on the cake. Dust with icing sugar for a snowy look.
