Panetonne Bread and Butter Pudding

Fab festive desert:

Use a good quality fruity bought panetonne, slice it and spread a little butter on some of the slices, put it in nice layers in an oven proof dish (I like to cut triangles and overlap them) then pour a couple of beaten eggs mixed with cream over the top. Put a dish on top and weigh it down. Leave it for a while to settle and then take the dish off, dot more butter over the top and cook in a medium to hot oven (depending on what else you're cooking) for 40 mins or so until it looks nice and golden and set. You can sift some icing sugar over the top if you like. Allow to cool slightly and enjoy...

Panettone

Almost every region in Italy has its own Christmas cake, but this Milanese specialty is by far the the most famous and most difficult to make. Panettone is available both in a high, dome-shaped or flat version. Natural yeast (that is, leavened dough) is essential to making a real panettone, because if the cake is made directly from brewer's yeast, its flavor is less delicate. Besides, the process of letting the dough rise must be carried out according to very specific instructions so that the result has a soft and airy texture. In any case, rising time depends on many factors: room temperature, the season, the length of the mixing process, etc. The timing given in the recipe can therefore only be approximate.

1 oz. baker's yeast
3 oz. flour
2 cups flour
7 tbs. sugar
1 whole egg
5 egg yolks
salt
1/2 cup melted butter
6 tbs. raisins, soaked and squeezed
2 oz. candied orange and lemon peel, diced
1 1/2 tbs. butter

Mix the yeast with the flour and as much water as necessary for the dough to be elastic. Wrap in a towel and put into a warm draft-free place (an unlit oven, for example) until doubled in size (it should take approx. 30 mins) and the surface is uneven. Make a small fontana with 4 tbs. flour. Crumble the dough cake on top of it, add 1/2 cup warm water and knead until the dough is elastic. Let rise in a warm place for 3 hours.
Punch down the dough, and then, knead in another 4 tbs. flour, with as much warm water as necessary. Place the dough in a warm place to rise for 2 hours. Combine the sugar, the whole egg and the yolks. Mix well and cook in a double boiler for a few minutes, beating the mixture with a whisk so that it becomes light and airy. Let cool.

Make another fontana with the remaining flour. Put in a pinch of salt, the risen dough, the butter and the egg mixture into the middle. Knead energetically for 20 mins. When the dough is smooth and elastic, add the raisins and candied peel. Grease and flour a sheet of waxed paper and place the dough in the center. Make a ring around it with a rectangular piece of cardboard and let rise in a warm place for at least 6 hours or until the dough has doubled in size.

Cut a cross on top of the cake with a sharp knife and put 1 tbs. butter in the middle. Cook the panettone in a pre-heated 400ºF oven for 40-45 mins. The cake is ready when a skewer inserted in the center comes out dry.

got this from good food! gonna make it this crimbo.

Make 6 ice cream balls (good quality ice dream, vanilla) then place them on a tray and stick in the freezer until really hard.

Then get a good hand full of Xmas pudding, place in between 2 sheets of cling film and roll out until thin (make sure there are no holes) do this six times too.

wrap the pudding around the hard ice cream balls and make sure the ice cream is completely covered. Then place back into the freezer until hard.

Get some ready made filo pastry, then wrap one sheet, then another round the Christmas pudding balls, sealing at the top with some melted butter.

When all 6 of your parcels are ready, put them back in the freezer (they can stay there for about a month).

Then when ready to cook them, turn your oven to the hottest temp it will go, place the parcels on a non stick tray and bake for 8 - 10 mins until the pastry is golden and the pudding is cooked!

Then serve!

I always make one traditional Christmas pudding and another one which is a tiffin/chocolate biscuit one. If you make it in a pudding basin and then turn it out, it is the same shape as a Christmas pudding. If you then mix icing sugar and water to a white paste consistency and ice the top but allow it to dribble down the sides and put on top a couple of either marzipan or icing holly leaf shapes with a couple of berries, it looks very decorative and goes down very well with children!

In my house, we have Dundee cake (a fruit cake originating from Scotland, hence the name). It is not as rich as Christmas cake, and can be enjoyed on its own, or with cheese (cheddar is best)!

The recipe can be found here:

http://www.uktvfood.co.uk/index.cfm?uktv=recipes.recipe&iID=516800

or just Google search for different variations.

A note on this: my parents usually substitute brandy for whiskey, partly because my dad refuses to use whisky for cooking!

A Yule Log - chocolate swiss roll, filled with cream or chestnut puree, covered with chocolate fudge icing - use a fork to make it look like the bark of a log - sprinkle with icing sugar (snow).

Or a Trifle.
