Quest 61: Rabbit Droppings

Rabbits work there way into many Legend of Zelda games, but whether it is Link turning into one or they are hiding behind rock on the Spirit Tracks - they all make poo. So, today's recipe is Rabbit Droppings, but we think you will like them because they are really egg free oatmeal chocolate chip cookie dough - so you don't have to worry about getting sick from uncooked eggs. Not that it ever stopped us from eating cookie dough before. Oh well, Happy Easter & Enjoy!

Quest 31: The Ocarina of Time

Has the thought of Daylight Savings Time got you down? Well in places where it affects you - have no fear! The Ocarina of Time can certainly help with this situation. Today we will be making these to just help with the shift in time. This is a slightly fancier version that you will find on the rice krispies website and I hope you enjoy!




The Gear! - Get the Printable Recipe Here
3 tablespoons butter
4 cups miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 T. Nutella
6 cups rice krispies  - I am using GF.
1 cup mini chocolate chips
2 bags Blue Candy Melts
3-4 tablespoons of Crisco

The Quest!

In a double boiler, melt butter. Add mini marshmallows and melt. 






Add peanut butter and Nutella - mix until smooth. Turn off heat.





In a large bowl, add Rice Krispies and marshmallow mixture. Mix together first with a spoon and then get in there with your hands - you are going to have to shape them anyways, so you might as well get dirty. When slightly cooled, but still workable, add mini chocolate chips. I originally used bigger chocolate chips - they were just too big - use the mini ones instead! 

Shape into an Ocarina shape - making sure that your stick out is secure and molded to be part of the shape. - Set aside on wax paper to fully cool.





In a double boiler, melt the blue candy melts. It was a little thick, so I added a few tablespoons of Crisco to thin it out. I also added a little blue food coloring to make them a little darker. 




Dip each Ocarina in the candy melt and return to waxed paper to harden and consider decorations.
Add any decorations: black sugar dots or chocolate chips for buttons. While candy melts are still soft so they stick. Wait until hardened and Enjoy!

Quest 20: The Quest for the Golden Triangles, also know as Scones!


 Since this is the 20th Quest, I have decided to something that is a little more main quest related like collecting the fabled golden triangles. This quest will be messy, chocolaty and whole lot of fun. Ever make scones before or had one from the bakery? No? Well, think of scones as a cross between a muffin and a cookie. Now how wouldn't be in love with that combination? So, in honor of the game that got this all started: The Legend of Zelda, I give you my recipe for chocolate chip scones. How you arrange them on the plate, I'll leave to you. Enjoy!

Quest Gear!
A mixing bowl
Spoon
Pasty blender or two forks (optional)
Cookie sheet
Parchment Paper
1 cup GF AP flour with xanthan gum
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons GF baking powder
2 tablespoons COLD butter
1 egg
3-4 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup miniature chocolate chips

The Quest!!
 Cube your two tablespoons of cold butter and add them to the flour in a mixing bowl.













Either with a pasty blender, two forks, or even just your fingers, work the butter into the flour until it becomes the consistency of cornmeal to the touch  (kind of small lumps equally throughout).











Add the rest of the dry ingredients and mix together well. Form a well in the middle of the bowl.







Add your egg and 3 tablespoons of heavy cream to the well and mix to combine. Once mixed, start to mix the dry ingredients in by sweeping the side of the bowl. It should start to form a drier dough. Add the mini chocolate chips. Continue mixing until everything is mixed together. If there is a lot of flour in the bottom that just will not mix in, add a little more heavy cream (a teaspoon at a time) until you get it together.



Once the dough has formed a ball, set the spoon aside and begin kneading the dough with floured hands. Do this about 6-8 times by bringing the dough together from the sides and pressing it down.





When kneading is complete, roll or press the dough out into a square about 1/2 inch thick. Make it as square as you can.







Cut the dough into 8 pieces by cutting into four squares first, then cutting each square into triangles.












Place the triangles onto a cookie sheet that has been lined with parchment paper. Bake 18-20 minutes at 350 degrees F.














The tops will be fairly light in color, but the bottoms will be browned. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.













Most people like scones warm, but I enjoy them warm or room temperature.











ENJOY!!
