It's nearly time to experience the Muppet takeover of Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Hollywood Studios. The fun begins in the courtyard where there are Muppety touches everywhere you look. There's even a new spot for munchies: FØØD by Swedish Chef. The menu includes returning favorites alongside a few Muppet-inspired dishes.

After you make your way through the Muppet-filled queue, you'll arrive at the recording studio where the Electric Mayhem are rocking out while Scooter is trying to get them to the concert on time. You'll board a Lengthy Immediate Motion Object (L.I.M.O.) created by Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker and race across town to the sounds of the Electric Mayhem and a few of their friends.

Of course, Statler and Waldorf will be on hand to do what they do best: heckle. 

The attraction photos have fun new frames featuring various Muppets. They will be available in the new Rock Around the Shop along with lots of fun Muppety merchandise.

There will be lots of Muppet T-shirtsT-shirts for those who want a bit more Muppets in every day. A Muppet water bottle features a bright, bold design. 

RSVLTS has designed a fun new button down shirt with a zany print. And there's a simple ball cap, too.

For Loungefly collectors, a guitar bag will soon be headed to the shop. Featuring several Muppets on the strap, its the perfect rockstar accessory. 

An awesome set of six stickers is great for decorating laptops, water bottles, or wherever you need a little more Muppet mania. The set features Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzy Bear, Statler and Waldorf, Animal playing the drums and a Rockin’ Muppets license plate.

Of course, there will be pins to collect, and a few fun magnets. Muppet drumsticks are a great souvenir for rocking to the beat wherever you go. A cool postcard and other knick-knacks will also be available.

Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets is ready to rock on May 26th.

Orange-Cranberry Scone Recipe From Disney

Disney

Afternoon tea returned to the Grand Floridian last month. The Garden View Lounge - Tea Experience is a whimsical Alice in Wonderland inspired tea party filled with delightful teas and sweet and savory bites. Your meal begins with Orange-Cranberry Scones and Disney has shared the recipe so we can enjoy them at home.

Orange-Cranberry Scones

Makes 12 Scones

Soaked Fruit

zest of 1 orange

1/2 cup dried apricot, chopped

1/2 cup dried cranberries

3 Tbsp orange liqueur or orange juice

Combine orange zest, dried apricots, dried cranberries, and orange liqueur in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Cranberry-Orange Scones

3 Tbsp heavy cream

3 Tbsp crème fraîche

6 Tbdp sugar

2 cups cake flour

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 cup butter, at room temperature

Soaked Fruit

1 egg, beaten

2 tsp water

Whisk heavy cream, crème fraîche, and sugar together in a small bowl and set aside.

Sift cake flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda together in the bowl of an electric mixer. Cut room temperature butter into small cubes and add to flour mixture. Mix with paddle attachment on low speed until coarse crumbs form. 

Add reserved cream mixture and mix on low speed until a rough dough forms and flour is no longer crumbly. Add Soaked Fruit with any remaining liquid and gently mix until dough is soft and starts to pull away from sides of the bowl. Do not overmix.

Place dough on a floured cutting board and shape into a 6×8-inch rectangle that is 1-inch thick. Cut into 2-inch squares and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Freeze for at least 30 minutes before preheating oven.

Preheat oven to 400°F. Set scones out of freezer while oven is preheating. Combine beaten egg and water in a small bowl. Brush on top of scones. Bake for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown.
