Moms Cream Horns Recipes

CREAM HORNS

Steps:

• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out pastry dough into a 12-by-18-inch rectangle. Brush off excess flour. Using a pastry wheel or sharp knife, trim edges and cut dough lengthwise into twelve 3/4-inch-wide strips.
• Lay one of the strips flat on a clean work surface; using a pastry brush, moisten top with beaten egg. Starting at pointed end of a cream-horn mold, wrap strip, with the egg-washed side up, around it in a spiral fashion, with each spiral overlapping slightly. Tuck or press loose end into last spiral; place spiral tucked side down on an ungreased baking sheet. Repeat with remaining strips. Wrap in plastic wrap; place in refrigerator 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Brush dough again with beaten egg. Spread granulated sugar in a shallow pan; dip one side of each horn in sugar to coat. Return each, sugar side up, to baking sheet.
• Bake until horns are golden brown and puffed, about 12 minutes; reduce oven heat to 350 degrees. Remove pan from oven; using a kitchen towel, carefully remove molds from horns. Return horns to baking sheet, and continue baking until insides are lightly golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes more. Remove from oven; immediately transfer horns to a wire rack to cool completely. Horns can be prepared up to this point and stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days before filling and serving.
• When ready to serve, place cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium speed until soft peaks form. Sift in confectioners' sugar, and add vanilla; continue beating until stiff peaks form. Transfer whipped cream to a pastry bag; pipe cream into horns. Serve immediately.

MOM'S CREAM HORN (TRUBOCHKI) RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the Oven to 400°F
• Unfold one thawed puff pastry sheet. Keep the second sheet refrigerated. Using pizza cutter, slice the sheet in to 30 even strips.
• Roll each strip out until it is about 2.5 times in length, than wrap the dough around the mold, pushing the dough down to seal it as you go.
• Place the rolled mold on a baking sheet, with the end side down & bake at 400° F for 12 min until golden brown. Might need to bake few batches.
• Cool trubochki to room temperature, than pipe in the cream.
• For the cream, beat together 4oz cream cheese and 3 Tbsp of sugar for 1 minute on medium speed until well blended. Add 2 Tbsp of lemon juice and mix until blended.
• Fold in 8oz of cool whip until smooth and fluffy.
• Fill the pastry bag with cream & pipe it in to each cream horn to the top.
• Dust with powder sugar and enjoy.

HOMEMADE CREAM HORNS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Unfold puff pastry sheet and use a pizza cutter to slice pastry into 6 even strips. Wrap each strip around a conical cream horn mold starting at the pointed end. Place rolled molds on a baking sheet with the end of the dough strip facing down.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 12 minutes.
• Remove horns from oven and allow to cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes, before carefully removing molds.
• Beat cream cheese and sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 1 minute. Add lemon juice and vanilla extract and beat until blended. Fold in whipped topping until filling is smooth and fluffy.
• Fill a pastry bag with cream filling and pipe filling evenly into each horn. Dust horns with confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate 30 minutes before serving.

MOM'S CREAM HORNS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 F.
• Unfold and place thawed one sheet at the time of dough onto a dusted with flour working surface.
• Roll out the dough into a square. Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into ¾ inch wide strips.
• Place them onto a greased pan.
• Bake then in preheated oven for 18 minutes or until light golden brown.
• Remove from the oven.
• Remove each horn from the mold hot to prevent from horn sticking to the mold. Use a towel to hold the end of the mold so you don't burn your hands. Let the horns cool completely before filling with cream.
• Beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy in texture.
• Add powdered sugar and mix it together increasing mixer speed gradually (unless you want to stand in a dust cloud of powdered sugar) until all combined and smooth to texture with no lumps.
• Scrape down the mixer bowl to remove stuck cream cheese and beat on high until thickens.
• Scrape down the mixer bowl again, to make sure all the cream cheese is removed from the walls of the bowl and beat the cream once more for about 15 seconds.
• Finally, add liquid heavy whipping cream to the cream cheese mixture, start beating on low gradually increasing mixing speed. As the heavy whipping cream gets combined with the cream cheese it will liquefy more. The frosting will thicken during the mixing process. Do not overbeat the frosting! As soon as it starts to hold its shape the frosting is ready.
• Fill a decorating bag and Wilton 32 attachment with cream halfway (it's easier that way to squeeze the cream into horns). Pipe the cream into each end of the horn.
• Place them into an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 8 hours. Dust horns with powdered sugar before serving. If you like horns crunchy, omit to refrigerate part.

MOM'S NUT HORNS

Steps:

• Cut butter into flour in a bowl using 2 knives or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add sour cream and egg yolk; mix well. Shape the dough into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Combine walnuts, sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 baking sheets.
• Cut dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 1/8-inch thick circle on a lightly floured surface. Spread 1/4 of the walnut mixture on each circle; cut each circle into 12 wedge-shaped pieces with a pizza wheel.
• Shape each piece of dough into a crescent by rolling dough from the wide end of the wedge into the center. Transfer cookies carefully to the baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Watch cookies carefully as they bake; their bottoms tend to brown faster than their tops.
