Those whose children grew up and learned to cook together with the book by Irina Chadeyeva "Miracle Pastry" (in which, in addition to recipes, different culinary rules were explained), it will be curious to pick up Chadeika's new book "Pie Science for Children". Why it was necessary to publish another book about baking and how the heroes of the first are doing (the sons of Irina Chadeeva are captured in many photos during the cooking process), the author told us.

When I finally ended the contract with the publishing house for the book "Miracle Baking", I was even glad. Because I already knew exactly what it should be correct book about baking for children, what pictures should be in it, what should be added, what should be removed, what should be told about, and what will not be interesting. And finally, I knew what the correct name should be. As a result, the book is simply unrecognizable - it has bright pictures, new recipes, slightly different faces and a completely different title: "Pirogology for Children".

Over the course of five years, my children have grown up, but have not lost their taste for experiments in the kitchen. Timofey is already an adult - he is 16, and sometimes he likes to cook something and even, sometimes, goes to culinary master classes.

Misha is always ready to help beat something or knead the dough, but in the first place he has been programming for a long time - and he knows it well for his 11 years. In addition, Mishka loves physics, chemistry and mathematics, and he is my strictest critic - it was with him that I consulted, trying to make the text of the book as clear, simple and interesting as possible. Hope we did it!

We bring to your attention two recipes from the new book - children love to cook these sweet dishes, perhaps most of all.

A muffin is a small cake made from quick dough, always with the addition of something tasty. Most often, muffins are baked with berries or pieces of chocolate, but you can add any fruits, seeds, nuts and even candy, and the more the better.

You also need to add baking powder, otherwise the muffins will be too dense and sticky inside.

Experimentally, pastry chefs have established that the muffin dough must be kneaded as quickly as possible and in no case should it be uniform and smooth. To do this, mix dry and liquid ingredients separately, and then combine both mixtures, mix quickly, add, if necessary, the filler indicated in the recipe, and immediately pour the dough into baking tins. In the oven, the dough rises strongly due to the baking powder, which releases carbon dioxide when heated.

You've probably seen muffins in cafes or pastry shops: they are almost always sold in corrugated paper molds (capsules). This is good for both buyers (it is convenient to hold it with your hand) and for confectioners (no need to grease the molds). These paper capsules are easy to buy, but note that under the weight of the dough, they tend to creep and lose their shape. To bake beautiful muffins, paper molds are placed in metal or Silicone forms for cupcakes.

So, let's repeat the basic rules of working with the test:

• mix dry and liquid ingredients separately;
• do not forget about baking powder;
• Do not knead the dough for a long time;
• use paper capsules in molds.

Ingredients:

• 120 g flour
• 1 tbsp. spoon with a slide of cocoa powder
• 75 g sugar
• 50 g butter
• 100 g sour cream
• 1 egg
• 100 g chocolate
• 1 teaspoon baking powder

You will also need:

• 2 mixing bowls
• spoon
• muffin or cupcake molds
• paper capsules (8 pieces)
• preheat the oven to 180 ° C

1. Melt the butter, it is convenient to do this in a microwave oven (2 minutes at medium power).
2. Divide the paper capsules into the molds.
3. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar and cocoa powder.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the sour cream, egg, and melted butter.
5. Pour the liquid mixture over dry and stir so that there are no white traces of flour (lumps will be). The dough will be quite thick.
6. Spoon the dough into tins, filling 2/3 full.

1. Place in a hot oven and bake for 25 minutes.
2. Pierce one of the muffins with a match or a toothpick - it shouldn't have any wet dough sticking to it.
3. Cool the finished muffins completely.
4. For decoration, grease the muffins with melted chocolate and sprinkle with sugar balls.

These famous candies are made from two main ingredients - chocolate and cream, but any complex dessert will envy their popularity.

To make the truffles tasty and the ganache to harden well, try to follow my advice:

• choose only high-quality chocolate with a cocoa-product content of 60%;
• use only heavy cream, with a fat content of at least 30%;
• watch out for the cream when heating - it can run away!

Ingredients:

• 200 g chocolate (60% cocoa)
• 200 ml of cream with a fat content of 30% (not less!)
• 30 g butter
• 4 tbsp. tablespoons of cocoa powder

You will also need:

• saucepan for warming cream
• mixing bowl
• corolla
• plate for cocoa powder
• sturdy spoon

Be careful and remember to wear an apron as chocolate has one more amazing property- it stains everything around.

1. Break the chocolate as finely as you can. Place in a bowl.
2. Heat the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan (watch out, they may escape).
3. Pour them over the chocolate.
4. Stir thoroughly with a whisk, holding it upright, until the mixture is completely smooth and shiny.
5. Add oil to warm mixture and stir again.

1. Refrigerate bowl for 8 hours (overnight).
2. Pour cocoa powder into a bowl. Take the pieces with a spoon, throw in the cocoa powder and roll the balls with your hands sprinkled with the powder.
3. Fold ready-made candies in a box or vase, store in the refrigerator for no more than two weeks.

Cupcakes

Cupcakes are small cupcakes baked in portioned tins and always decorated with some kind of cream. Outwardly, they resemble mini.

Cupcakes literally captivate children with their appearance... If there are a lot of guests, feel free to double or even triple all the ingredients. These muffins are snapped up in just 20 minutes.

Ingredients:

• 2 eggs,
• 200 grams of butter, sour cream, powdered sugar, flour,
• 1.5 tsp baking powder,
• 1 tsp vanilla sugar.

Preparation:

1. Combine soft butter with powdered sugar and beat with a mixer.
2. Add sour cream, beat again.
3. Add eggs. Beat.
4. Sift flour, add baking powder, vanilla. Pour liquid mass into dry ingredients, mix gently.
5. You should have a thick dough. If you take it with a spoon and turn it over, the dough should not fall.
6. Line out muffin cups (or metal ones for sand baskets) with special paper muffin cups. Fill the containers with dough about 2/3 full.
7. Place the cupcakes in a cold oven. Set the temperature to 170 degrees. Bake for about 25 minutes. Readiness can be checked with toothpicks. The surface of the muffins should not brown too much.
8. Cool the muffins, remove from the molds and decorate with cream.

If you want chocolate cupcakes, add a tablespoon of cocoa to the flour. You can also put fresh or frozen fruits, berries, chocolate pieces, citrus zest, nuts in the dough.

Any thick cream is suitable for cupcakes: butter, sour cream, custard, etc. My favorite thing is to decorate the muffins with whipped cream. If you have baked chocolate cupcakes, then the cream can be flavored with cocoa or chopped chocolate.

Kids love the multi-colored cupcakes. Therefore, I often tint the cream. For this purpose, you can use food coloring... But I am not a fan of treating children with such synthetic additives, so I only use natural dyes: spices, fruit or vegetable juices.

Cupcakes are decorated with cream using a pastry syringe, bag or cornet. When time is short, I just spread it out with a spoon and smooth it out with a fork in a circular motion.

On top of the cream, cupcakes can be decorated with grated waffles, coconut flakes, marmalade, candied fruits, berries, chocolate, confectionery sprinkles. Do not forget to dip fresh berries and fruits in gelatin so as not to wind up.

Have a bright and tasty holiday!
