Texas Pete Red Velvet Cones Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder. In another large bowl, whisk together the oil, buttermilk, eggs, food coloring, Texas Pete® Hot Sauce and vanilla.
• Using a standing mixer, mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined and a smooth batter is formed.
• Carefully spoon the batter into the ice cream cones filling them 2/3 of the way up to give them room for rising in the oven. Arrange the cones on a parchment-lined sheet tray standing up and place them into the oven to bake at 350 degrees for approximately 15-20 minutes or until they have fully risen and a tooth pick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
• Remove the cakes from the oven and let cool completely.
• While the cakes are in the oven, prepare the spicy cream cheese frosting.
• Place the softened cream cheese and the softened butter into a medium size mixing bowl and whisk together until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth. Add the vanilla extract and the Texas Pete® Hotter Hot Sauce and whisk one more minute. You may add more powdered sugar or Texas Pete® Hotter Hot Sauce so that the icing is to your liking.
• Place the spicy cream cheese frosting into a piping bag with a small decorative tip.
• Using the tip of a piping bag, carefully puncture a small hole into the center of the top of the red velvet cake and pipe approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the spice cream cheese into the center of the cake allowing some of the cream cheese to come out of the top for decoration. Continue until all the red velvet cake cones are filled. Use any extra cream cheese icing to frost the tops of the cones.
• Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and season liberally with salt and pepper. Cook until lightly caramelized and browned on the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn off the heat, cover with a lid and reserve. Using a 1/4 cup dry measuring cup, divide the beef into 12 individual patties in the shape of hockey pucks. When scooping the meat, use your fingers to push the meat into the measuring cup, then lightly press the meat down so it is level. Lightly tap the measuring cup on a cutting board or other flat surface to release the meat from the cup. Place the patties on a large baking sheet. Smash each patty with the back of a large flat spatula, about 1/4-inch thick. Liberally sprinkle each patty on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge each patty in the all-purpose flour.
• Heat a two-burner griddle or electric griddle to medium heat. Add half of the canola oil, making sure to coat the entire griddle. Carefully place 6 of the dredged patties on the griddle. Cook until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes, pressing down lightly with the back of a spatula. Flip and add 1 slice of the American cheese on each burger patty. Cook until the meat is cooked to medium and the cheese is melted, pressing down lightly again with the back of a spatula, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the cooked burger patties to a large plate or baking sheet. Use the spatula to scrape any cheese that has melted on to the griddle and a dish towel to wipe it down. Add the remaining canola oil and repeat the cooking process with the last 6 meat patties, this time only adding American cheese to 2 of the patties.
• To assemble, stack 1 plain beef patty on top of 2 cheese-topped patties on each toasted bottom bun. Evenly top with the sauteed onions and finish with a top bun on each burger. Serve each with a kosher dill pickle spear and French fries.
