Beautiful Petit Fours that are quick and easy to make for any occasion.
Today (finally), I’m going to share How to Make Perfect Petit Fours. The first couple of times I made petit fours, they were a serious headache for me. I didn’t love the recipe I was using, the icing was a nightmare and my method for cutting and covering them was a mess.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 3/4 cups sugar
- 3/4 cup salted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup shortening
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 5 eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup evaporated milk
- 1/4 cup sour cream
INSTRUCTIONS
- Cream together the sugar, butter and shortening until smooth then beat in vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, until fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, and salt). Add this flour mixture and the evaporated milk to the original mixture alternately. Beat for 2 minutes on medium speed, then fold in the sour cream.
- Spread onto a parchment lined half sheet pan. Bake at 325°F until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean (25-35 minutes – but check at 25 minutes!).
