Winter Solstice Cupcakes with "Flying Cauldron Butterscotch Beer" Filling



Ingredients

1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup milk
Preparation

1Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a muffin pan with paper liners.
2In a medium bowl, cream together the sugar and butter. Beat in the eggs, one at a
time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine flour and baking powder, add to the creamed
mixture and mix well. Finally stir in the milk until batter is smooth. Pour or spoon
batter into the prepared liners.
3Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven. Cake is done when it springs back to
the touch.
4Cut cone shapes from the center of each cupcake. Fill with cooled Flying Cauldron

Butterscotch Beer.
5Frost with your favorite icing. Mine is whipped cream.

I decided to use one bottle to make a thick filling for my Winter Solstice cupcakes. To

make this filling I simply added 2 tablespoons of cornstarch to the soda. Whisk to

remove all lumps. Then pour into a saucepan and cook. BEWARE... the hot soda will foam

up as it cooks. You need to keep a watchful eye on the saucepan. When it has reached

desired consistency, place in refrigerator to cool.

What is Flying Cauldron Butterscotch Beer?
 Since 1374, the Flying Cauldron has been making this magical brew for under aged wizards and wizards who are young at heart at their brew pub in Hogsbreath England . The recipe has changed little over the centuries. It has the perfect combination of spells and quality natural ingredients. It continues to be prized for its creamy vanilla and butterscotch flavors.

Now since I can't get Reed's Butterbeer here very easily, I suggest using Cream Soda in the recipe above but if you want to go to the adult version I have included some recipes below for fun as well.

The adult version of Butterbeer:
Butterbeer (light)

Ingredients:
1 part Schnapps, butterscotch
1 dash Schnapps, vanilla
7 parts cream soda

Instructions:
'Add both vanilla and butterscotch Schnapps to mug. Pour in cold cream soda and stir

very gently.'

Butterbeer (dark)

1 part Schnapps, butterscotch
1 part Schnapps, vanilla
7 parts root beer

Medicinal Pickled Garlic

  I have been making this wonderful Medicinal Pickled Garlic for years Here is the original recipe that I use. I want to share with you. I use this in recipes when I need some healing magick or just on it's own for real strength and healing. It is so good and so good for you. It takes awhile to peel all those garlic but it's well worth it, I separate each garlic into pieces and then I take a large knife and slightly smash each clove. makes it so much easier to peel each clove, I use each and every clove small and large and sperate them into the jar. Any honey will work and I buy Apple cider vinegar by the gallon because we use it for so many things. Medicinal Pickled Garlic  According to Gladstar’s book, “Garlic is the herb of choice in treating colds, flu, sore throats and poor or sluggish digestion… makes a potent internal and external antiseptic, antibacterial, and antimicrobial agent effective for treating many types of infection.”   That is some powerful stuff!  There is m

With cold and flu season coming up soon once again I am thinking ahead this year so I am making some medicines to have ready to fight back fast. According to Gladstar’s book, “Garlic is the herb of choice in treating colds, flu, sore throats and poor or sluggish digestion… makes a potent internal and external antiseptic, antibacterial, and antimicrobial agent effective for treating many types of infection.” That is some powerful stuff!  There is much more information in the book, it is a wonderful addition to your homesteading or prepping library. Peeled garlic cloves (enough to fill a jar) Raw apple cider vinegar Raw Local Honey Fill a mason jar with garlic cloves; use any size jar you like.  Fill the jar with apple cider vinegar to cover the garlic completely.  Place the jar in a warm place for 3-4 weeks. Medicinal Pickled Garlic ~ After 3-4 weeks, strain off the liquid(this is when you will add the honey).   Set ½ the liquid aside to use as you wish.  Rosemary Gladst

BROOM SUPERSTITIONS Lore and OMENS

A broom dropping in front of the door means company before the day is over. Always pick up, for luck, a broom that is lying on the floor or ground. Always sweep dirt out the back door or you will sweep away your best friend. Bad luck will befall  you all  year, if you sweep on New Year's Day. Burn up the rubbish when  you sweep on New Year's Day and  you will have money throughout the new year. Carry a broom under your arm for luck. Carrying a broom over your shoulder will give you bad luck. Do not sweep immediately after the departure of a guest or you will sweep him bad luck. Dropping a broom while sweeping is the sign of a new carpet. Hitting someone with a broom means that he will go to jail before a week has passed. If a broom falls as you are passing it, you will have bad luck. If a broom falls in fr! ont of you and you step over it before picking it up, you will have a "bed of sickness." If dirt is swept out a door before sun
