Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients

  • 21⁄2 cups flour
  • 3⁄4 cup sugar
  • 3⁄4 teaspoon salt

  2. Strain syrup into a bowl and place in the refrigerator until completely chilled.
  3. While syrup cools, make cr​ê​pes by first whisking together all of the dry ingredients in a bowl.

  5. Heat an 8-inch non-stick pan on medium and then lightly spray with oil. Pour 1⁄4 cup of the cr​êp​e batter into the pan and quickly swirl pan so that the batter covers the bottom evenly.
  6. Cook for one or two minutes until the edges of the cr​ê​pe brown slightly and the middle of the cr​êp​e is set. Using a spatula, lift the corner of the cr​ê​pe and carefully flip the cr​ê​pe over. Cook for 30 seconds, then remove the cr​ê​pe from the pan and set aside.
  7. 7. Repeat with all of the mix until you have 20–25 round cr​ê​pes. Set aside to cool.
  8. Next, add 3⁄4 cup of cooled berry syrup and 3 cups of whipped cream to a very large bowl. Using a blender, whip until soft peaks are formed. Add sugar and continue to whip until there are stiff peaks.
  9. Fold in 1⁄4 cup of the berry syrup, incorporating it as much or as little as you like.
  10. To build the cake place a cr​ê​pe on a cake stand and add 3–4 tablespoons of the berry whipped cream, spreading evenly to cover the cr​ê​pe. Then, place another one on top and cover again with berry whipped cream. Repeat layers with the remaining cr​ê​pes.
  11. Top with a last layer of whipped cream, then top with fresh berries and a drizzle of the extra berry syrup.
  12. Enjoy!

Beef Stew with Root Vegetables
Recipe of the Day: The Pioneer Woman - Ree Drummond's Beef Stew with Root Vegetables
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 pounds beef stew meat
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 can or bottle beer
  • 4 cups beef broth, more as needed
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1½ teaspoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 carrots, roughly sliced
  • 2 parsnips, roughly sliced
  • 1 small turnip, roughly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, optional
  • Minced fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
  1. Heat the oil and butter in a pan and brown the beef. Remove the beef from the pan, throw in the garlic and onions and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Pour in the beer, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, sugar, paprika, salt and some pepper. Then return the beef to the pan, cover and simmer on a low heat until the meat is very tender, 1½ to 2 hours. If the liquid level gets too low, add more broth as needed.
  2. Add the carrots, parsnips and turnips and continue to simmer until the vegetables are tender and the liquid is reduced, about 30 minutes.
  3. If the stew is still too liquidy, remove a cup of cooking liquid from the pan and stir in the flour. Add the flour mixture back into the pan and stir. Simmer for 10 minutes until the stew is thick. The meat should be very tender; if it's tough, let it continue to cook.
  4. To finish, add the parsley and stir through the stew.
