Frosted Animal Cracker Carousel Cake Recipes

FROSTED ANIMAL CRACKER ICE BOX CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Pour the milk into a large container, bowl or baking dish.
• Add in the frosted animal crackers and allow them to soak for about 10-15 minutes. Because of the frosting on the cookies, soaking them will simply help the layers to be a little bit softer. Additionally, if you'd like the layers to be even softer, you can break the cookies in half. If you do so, soak them in the milk for about 5 minutes instead of the 10-15 minutes.
• While the cookies are soaking, whip the cream, sugar and vanilla in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
• Line the bottom of an 9" spring form pan with wax paper or parchment paper. Begin layering on the cookie pieces. Each layer should fit about 32 cookies.
• Add on about 1/3 of the whipped cream.
• Continue layering the cookies and cream, ending with the cream on top.
• Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 5-6 hours, ideally overnight.
• Right before serving, remove the cake from the pan. (Run a knife along the edge to help loosen it first). If desired, top with additional sprinkles and white chocolate curls/shavings.

ANIMAL CRACKER CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH FUJI CARAMELIZED APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the cleaned and rinsed chicken breasts into a mixing bowl. Cut an incision into the breasts that's large enough to fit the stuffing. After you make the incision, sprinkle the breasts with the garlic, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme breast. Cover and refrigerate while you prep the bread crumbs and saute the apples.
• In a mixing bowl combine the animal crackers and bread crumbs.
• Heat saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and the apples. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes depending on how soft you would like them.
• Whisk the egg in a small bowl. Lay out a sheet of aluminum foil. Put a seasoned chicken breast on the foil and stuff 1/4 of the apples into the incision. Dredge the chicken in the whisked egg, and then roll it in the bread crumb mixture. Put the breaded chicken breast back on the sheet of foil and roll it up so the foil is covering the breast completely. Repeat these steps for the remaining breasts. Lastly, place the wrapped chicken breasts in a baking pan and bake for 1 hour. Remove the pan from the oven, unwrap the chicken and serve on individual plates.
