Ingredients
  1. 4 (6 ounce) shelled raw lobster tails
  2. 1 tablespoon butter
  3. 1 tablespoon minced celery
  4. 1 green onion, minced
  5. 1 1/2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
  6. 1/8 teaspoon dry mustard
  7. 1/4 teaspoon cajun spices
  8. 1/3 cup cold milk
  9. 1 (6 ounce) can crabmeat, drained and flaked
  10. 2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C)
  2. Pull the edges of the split lobster shells apart and gently lift the tail meat to rest above the shells. Place the prepared lobster tails on a baking sheet.
  3. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Cook and stir the celery and green onion in butter until tender. Stir in the flour, dry mustard, and seasoning.
  4. Using a wire whisk, mix in cold milk slowly, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
  5. Remove from heat. Stir in crab meat and bread crumbs.
  6. Spoon half crab mixture into lobster tails and half on top
  7. Bake the lobster tails in the preheated oven until the meat is opaque and the stuffing is golden brown on top, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the lobster tail should read 145 degrees F (65 degrees C).

Whoopie Pie

I’m not exactly sure if this is the right thing shown. It at least is similar. Whoopie Pie did exist in the timeframe of princess and the frog, but it wasn’t super common.

But it sure tastes good.

  2. In a large bowl of an electric mixer, beat the sugar, butter, and eggs together until well combined. Add the oil and vanilla and beat again.

  4. With a large spoon, scoop out 32 circles of batter onto a baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool.
  5. Spread filling onto 16 circles and place remaining circles on top, to make 16 Whoopie Pies.
Filling
  1. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine all ingredients except the milk and beat well. Add just enough milk to achieve a creamy consistency. Spread filling across cooled cookie circles.

Ingredients
  1. GREDIENTS
  2. ½ cup /113 grams butter, at room temperature, plus 2 tablespoons to prepare pans
  3. 3 tablespoons/22 grams cocoa powder, divided
  4. 1 ½ cups/300 grams sugar
  5. 2 eggs
  6. 2 teaspoons/10 milliliters vanilla
  7. 2 tablespoons/30 milliliters red food coloring
  8. 1 teaspoon/6 grams salt
  9. 1 teaspoon/5 grams baking soda
  10. 2 ½ cups/320 grams flour, sifted
  11. 1 cup/236 milliliters whole buttermilk
  12. 1 tablespoon/15 milliliters vinegar
  13. Cream Cheese Frosting (2 tubs)
Instructions
  1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare three 9-inch cake pans by buttering lightly and sprinkling with 1 tablespoon sifted cocoa powder, tapping pans to coat and discarding extra cocoa.
  2. Cream butter and sugar together. Add eggs one at a time and beat vigorously until each is incorporated. Mix in vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl, make a paste of the remaining 2 tablespoons cocoa and the food coloring. Blend into butter mixture.
  4. Sift together remaining dry ingredients. Alternating in 2 batches each, add dry ingredients and buttermilk to the butter mixture. In the last batch of buttermilk, mix in the vinegar before adding to the batter. Mix until blended.
  5. Divide batter among 3 pans and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on a rack completely. (Can also be made in 2 cake pans.)
  6. To assemble, remove 1 cake from its pan and place flat side down on a serving platter. Drop about 1 cup of icing onto cake and, using a flat spatula, spread evenly over top. Remove the second cake from its pan. Place flat side down on top of first layer. Use remaining frosting to cover top and sides of cake.

Will it be your Evangeline?

Everything was amazing. I was a little disappointed with the Red velvet cake. It wasn’t as fluffy as I would have liked it. But other than that, all the food was great.

Verdict:

Lobster Tail – 7.5/10

Fried Shrimp – 8.5/10

Whoopie Pie – 8/10

Red Velvet Cake – 7.5/10
