INGREDIENTS:
2.) Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove tart pans to a wire rack, and cool completely
(about 30 minutes).
3.) Beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer at medium speed until smooth. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1/2
cup granulated sugar, and beat until well blended. Gently fold the whipped cream into cream cheese mixture until
incorporated. Spoon about 5 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture into each tart shell. Cover tarts with plastic wrap,
and chill 4 to 24 hours.
4.) Toss together the sliced strawberries and 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, and spoon on tarts just before serving.
STRAWBERRY PARFAIT
\
INGREDIENTS:
2.) Combine ricotta and next 4 ingredients (ricotta through vanilla) in a medium bowl; stir well with a whisk. Spoon 2
tablespoons cookie crumbs into each of 4 parfait glasses. Top each portion with 2 tablespoons strawberry puree, 1/4 cup
strawberry slices, and 3 tablespoons ricotta mixture; repeat the layers. Drizzle the remaining strawberry puree over each
serving. Chill for 2 hours. Top each parfait with 2 tablespoons whipped topping and 1 1/2 teaspoons almonds.
1.) To make the crust, heat oven to 400. Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with a round of parchment paper.
Combine the cookie crumbs and melted butter in a medium bowl and stir with a fork until all the crumbs are moistened.
Transfer the crumbs to the prepared pan. Gently press the crumbs up the sides of the pan, then use a glass or other flat-
bottomed object to press the crumbs into an even later on the bottom. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then transfer to a
wire rack to cool. Decrease oven temperature to 300.
2.) To make the filling, combine the sour cream, vanilla, peppermint and espresso powder in a small bowl. Whisk to blend
and set aside. Melt the chocolate, either over a double boiler or in the microwave, and set aside to cool slightly.
3.) In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the cream cheese, cocoa powder and salt. Beat on medium-high speed until
fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the sugar and continue beating 2-3 minutes more, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.
Add the cooled chocolate and beat on medium-low speed. Add the sour cream mixture and mix until evenly blended. Beat
in the eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined.
4.) Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until the center jiggles just slightly. Cool on a
wire rack for 1-2 hours, then cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight.
5.) To serve the cheesecake, carefully unmold the sides of the springform. Top with whipped cream and peppermint bark,
if desired. Run a long, sharp knife under hot water to warm it, then dry with a towel. Cut into thin slices (this is a rich
cheesecake, after all) and clean the knife, reheating as necessary, in between each slice. Serve chilled.
2 eggs
cup /113 grams butter, at room temperature, plus 2 tablespoons to prepare pans
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.
STRAWBERRY TRIFLE
INGREDIENTS:

cream.
2.) Place half of the cake cubes in a 3-qt. glass bowl. Arrange a third of the strawberries around sides of bowl and over
cake; top with half of the pudding mixture. Repeat layers once. Top with remaining berries. Refrigerate for 2 hours before
serving. Yield: 8-10 servings.
