Iteration- completed by 9/10
Since the pixie stick cookies were so bad, I was destined to improve them.
We used the same base cookie, however we added a Carolina Reaper pepper glaze to the top of them in order to sweeten the cookie and add some real flavor.
Recipe:
4 tablespoons water
powdered sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 Carolina Reaper
Process:
- mix water and light corn syrup
2. slowly add powdered sugar until glaze is no longer watery, but slightly thickened. It will be around 2 cups of powdered sugar.
3. go and pick a pepper!
4. thinly slice or zest the Carolina Reaper and add to the glaze.
5. mix well and store overnight, allowing flavors to combine. Then put on top of sugar cookies.
