E A G L E S Swirl Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Add the sugar to a baking sheet and bake for 7 minutes. The edges may begin to caramelize - this is good! Remove the sugar from the oven and leave the oven on.
• In a large clean, dry bowl, whip the egg whites with an electric hand mixer on low speed until foamy, then add the salt. Continue whipping on high speed until medium peaks form.
• Add the toasted sugar to the egg whites 1 tablespoon at a time, increasing the mixer speed gradually as you add more sugar. Once all of the sugar is incorporated, continue whipping for 5-7 minutes, until the meringue is very thick and shiny.
• Add in vanilla, just whipping until incorporated.
• Prop open a piping bag or zip-top bag in a tall drinking glass. Using wooden skewers, lightly paint 2 thin stripes of different-colored gel food coloring on opposite sides of the bag. Paint additional bags with more colors, if desired.
• Fill each bag with the meringue batter, dividing evenly amongst different colors, if using.
• Pipe 1-inch (2-cm) wide "kisses" of meringue onto a baking sheet about ½ inch (1 cm) apart.
• Bake for about 1 hour, or until you can easily lift a kiss off of the paper.
• Cool the meringues on the baking sheet at room temperature until no longer warm.
• To fill, pipe buttercream icing around the edge of a cookie and place a small dollop of jam in the center. Sandwich with another cookie.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• For the raspberry filling: Combine the raspberries, granulated sugar and lemon juice in a medium saucepan and heat over medium heat, crushing the fruit and stirring occasionally. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisk in the cornstarch and lower to a simmer. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the cream filling: Add the white chocolate to a bowl fitted over a pot of simmering water to make a double boiler. Heat until the chocolate is fully melted, then remove the bowl and allow to cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Once cool, whisk in the mascarpone and confectioners' sugar and continue to whisk until all lumps of sugar are dissolved and the mixture is smooth and velvety.
• For the cookie dough: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla to the bowl and continue to beat, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until well incorporated, 60 to 90 seconds.
• Whisk together the flour and salt in a medium bowl. On low speed, add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat to combine. Add the milk and mix just a bit more until everything is incorporated. Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a medium star tip.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment and pipe 1 1/2-inch circles of dough, about 12 on each sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for about 8 minutes.
• Bake until light golden brown on the sides, 12 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool on the baking sheets.
• Once all cookies have been baked and cooled, spoon the raspberry filling onto the bottom of half of the cookies. Scoop the cream filling into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip and pipe it on top of the raspberry filling. Use the remaining cookies as tops to create sandwich cookie.

Steps:

• Cover bread evenly with spreadable cheese.
• Layer turkey, tomato, Swiss cheese and spinach on bread, leaving about 4 inches at one side covered with spreadable cheese only.
• Beginning at the side layered with turkey, roll up bread. Trim each end with serrated knife to make even; cut bread roll into 1-inch slices.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Place 4 slices of bread on a cutting board and generously butter the top sides of each slice. Melt another tablespoon of the butter in the skillet; swirl around to coat the pan.
• Lay 2 slices of bread, buttered side down, in the skillet. Put a few slices of the cheese on the bread. Lay the bacon, tomato, or ham on top of the cheese. Cover with a few more slices of cheese. Top with 2 of the remaining slices of bread, placed buttered-side up. Cook, without pressing, until the bread browns and the cheese is slightly melted, about 5 minutes. Turn the sandwiches with a spatula and add a small hazelnut-size piece of butter to the pan. Cook slowly, adjusting the heat as needed to melt the cheese completely before the sandwiches are brown, about 3 to 4 minutes more. Repeat with the other 2 sandwiches. Serve.

Steps:

• On a large cutting board, lay out 9 slices of bread in a 3x3 (7x7 cm) grid. Brush the melted butter where the bread slices will touch, then overlap the bread pieces until you have one large square of bread.
• Cover with another cutting board and a heavy pan to weigh it down and let sit for 10 minutes.
• Remove the pan and cutting board and roll the square with a rolling pin to flatten.
• Pour half of the hazelnut spread on the sheet of bread and spread evenly, leaving a 1-inch (1 cm) gap around the edges.
• Starting at the bottom, carefully roll up the bread to form a log and wrap in plastic wrap.
• Using the remaining 9 slices of bread and remaining hazelnut spread, make another log.
• Freeze for 20 minutes.
• Slice the chilled logs into ½-inch (1 cm) thick rounds. There will be about 18 slices per log.
• Place the rolls from 1 log in a parchment-lined 10-inch (25-cm) springform pan. Slice any extra rolls into smaller pieces to fill in the gaps between the whole rolls.
• Place a sheet of parchment on top of the rolls and use a smaller cake pan to press the rolls together, creating a compressed layer. Remove the cake pan and parchment and freeze until solid, about 1 hour.
• Scoop softened ice cream on top of the rolls and spread evenly. Freeze until solid, about 1 hour.
• Add another layer of rolls from the second log on top of the ice cream layer, filling the gaps with smaller pieces of rolls again. Place a sheet of parchment paper on top and use the smaller cake pan to compress the rolls. Remove the pan and parchment and freeze for another hour.
• Remove from the springform pan, slice, and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. When hot, add onion, mushrooms and garlic. Cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza crust dough to a 12x9 inch rectangle. Cover with layers of vegetables, cheese and roast beef slices to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Starting at the longest side of the dough, roll across to the other side and pinch seam to seal. Place seam side down on a greased baking sheet. Whisk together the egg white and water with a fork and brush on top of the roll. Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the top of the roll.
• Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown. Let cool slightly, then slice and serve.
