- Blueberry, Mango and Strawberry Sugar Cookies | Points For Jenn
< Back Blueberry, Mango and Strawberry Sugar Cookies Yield: 20 Cookies (#100 scoop) Prep Time: 20 Minutes Cook Time: 10 Minutes Category Desserts Calories: 232 Carbs: 33.3 Fat: 9.7 Fiber: 0.8 Protein: 2.9 WW Points: 10 ingredients 2 ¾ cups plus 2 tablespoons bread flour ¾ teaspoon baking soda ¾ teaspoon kosher salt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar ¼ of a vanilla bean or 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste 1 large egg 1 egg yolk ½ heaping cup freeze-dried strawberries ⅓ cup freeze-dried blueberries ⅓ cup freeze-dried mango ¼ cup granulated sugar (50g), for rolling Pink, purple, and yellow food coloring (optional, for vibrancy) directions Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the bread flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. Step 3: In a stand mixer, beat the butter on medium speed for 2–3 minutes, until pale and fluffy. Add the granulated sugar and continue beating for another 2–3 minutes, until creamy. Step 4: Mix in the vanilla bean or vanilla bean paste, egg, and egg yolk. Beat for 2–3 minutes, until well combined. Step 5: Add the flour mixture in batches on low speed, mixing just until combined. Step 6: Split the dough evenly into four bowls: One bowl remains plain vanilla Three bowls will be flavored For each fruit flavor: Grind the freeze-dried strawberries, blueberries, and mango separately in a spice grinder or mini blender until powdered. Sieve the strawberry powder to remove seeds. Add each fruit powder to its own bowl of dough. Add optional pink, purple, or yellow food coloring to enhance the color. Step 7: Using a #100 scoop , portion each dough. To form the cookies, gently press together one portion of each color and roll into a swirled dough ball. Roll each ball in granulated sugar to coat. Step 8: Place eight dough balls per tray, spacing at least 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes, rotating the pan halfway and banging it once or twice on the oven rack to encourage spreading. Bake until the edges are lightly golden. Bang the tray again immediately after removing from the oven. While warm, use a round cookie cutter to “scoot” them into perfect circles. Notes: Slightly underbaking keeps the cookies soft and chewy once cooled. Food coloring is optional; the fruit powder alone will tint the dough lightly. Previous Next

- Spring Rolls | Points For Jenn
< Back Spring Rolls Yield: 1 Serving Prep Time: 10 Minutes Cook Time: 4 Minutes Category Lunch + Dinner Calories: 383 Carbs: 81.2 Fat: 6 Fiber: 11.3 Protein: 8.2 WW Points: 8 ingredients for the rolls: ½ red bell pepper, thinly sliced ¼ of a small red cabbage, thinly sliced 1 medium carrot, sliced into thin sticks 1 – 2 fresno chilis, thinly sliced ½ avocado, sliced 1 portion cooked instant whole grain rice vermicelli (regular is fine) basil leaves ¼ cup cilantro mint leaves 6 spring roll rice wrappers *water for boiling vermicelli *cold water for dipping spring roll rice wrappers for the sauce: 2 tablespoons peanut butter 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce 2 tablespoons sriracha 1 tablespoon soy sauce directions Step 1: Slice all veggies and set aside. I used a mandolin, but you can easily slice them by hand. Step 2: Place the vermicelli in a medium bowl, cover with boiling water, and let stand for 4 minutes. Step 3: Drain when done. Step 4: Use an 8” bowl or plate for the cold water to dip your spring roll rice wrappers in. Step 5: To assemble, take one rice wrapper and dip it in cold water. Lay it on a plate and start placing a little bit of each of the veggies, a slice of avocado, a little bit of noodles, and slices of chili, in the center of the wrapper. These can rip easily so don’t overstuff them. Step 6: To roll, fold in the sides over the filling, fold over the side closest to you over the filling, and roll away from you to seal. Repeat the process until you are done. These can be a little tricky to roll at first, but after a couple, you will get the hang of it. 😊 Step 7: Mix all ingredients in a small bowl together for the sauce and use as your dipping sauce for the rolls.
