1337 EATS: Skyrim Lavender Dumpling Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2/3 Cup Orange Juice
• 2/3 Cup Granulated Sugar
• 2 1/3 Cup Cranberries
• 1/4 Tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 Tablespoons Butter
• 1 Tablespoon Milk
• 1/3 Cup Confectioner's Sugar
• 1 Tablespoon Culinary Lavender
• Pillsbury Seamless Dough

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

2. In a medium pan on medium heat, add orange juice and sugar. Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and add Cranberries. 

3. Add cornstarch (mixed with cold water) to the Cranberry mixture, and bring the stove back up to medium heat until the mixture is thick. This should take about 10 minutes. 

4. Add a half tablespoon of lavender and mix together on low heat for about 2-4 minutes. 

5. Spread out dough on a non-stick cookie sheet. Cut medium sized rectangles in the dough. Put about one small spoonful of the cranberry mixture in the center of your dumpling and pinch the sides together in the center of the dumpling to make a pyramid-like shape.

6. Melt butter in the microwave and brush onto the raw dumpling dough.

7. Place dumplings in the oven for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

8. *OPTIONAL: Mix 1/3 cup of confectioner's sugar with 1 tablespoon of milk until there it forms a smooth, thick consistency. 
 *I highly recommend this step. Although it goes against the "look"                  of the original dumplings, the sweetness really compliments the                    bitterness of the cranberries.

9. Drip the glaze (if you decide to make it) onto your dumplings and let cool for at least 2 minutes.

10. Enjoy! These taste greaaattttt while they're warm!!!!

                  FUS!

DIY Coasters

A little late but I wanted to bring you guys a blog exclusive using my new camera. Let's make some video game coasters! What you will need is Mod Podge glue & spray seal (available at Walmart or craft stores),  4 1/4 x 4 1/4 tiles (I got mine from Home Depot for 18 cents a tile), and adhesive cork stamps (or rubber) to ensure that your tiles don't scratch on hard surfaces.







Instructions:
1. Cut out your images!
2. Time for our first coat of Mod Podge glue on our tiles. Make sure to do one at a time.
3. Place your image onto the tile and hold edges to help them stick.
4. Coat your image with an outer layer of Mod Podge glue. Let dry for 30 minutes to an hour.
5. Spray tiles with the Mod Podge spray sealer. Let sit for 15-20 minutes.
6. Apply your cork stamps.
7. Done :)!

Want to use the images I did? Here! 

* Keep in mind, you can change the dimensions of your images and tiles if you want your coasters to be bigger/smaller.
