Tightly wrap the outside of a 10" x 3" springform pan with three layers of heavy-duty foil. Note: you can use a 9" pan, but it has to be at least 3" tall; even then, you'll find the cheesecake comes perilously close to spilling over. Grease the sides of the pan. Finely grind the chocolate cookies, pecans, and sugar in a food processor. Bacon-Cheddar-Chive Scones. We usually think of scones as sweet, not savory. But these rich, tender scones are packed with chunks of Cheddar cheese and diced bacon, and accented with fresh chives. Serve them with soup or a salad for a satisfying meal. Read our blog about these scones, with additional photos, at Bakers' Banter. 2 cups (8 1/2 ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour or Perfect Pastry Blend 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon baking powder 2 teaspoons sugar 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick, 2 ounces) cold butter 1 cup (4 ounces) very coarsely grated or diced cheddar cheese 1/3 cup (about 1/2 ounce) snipped fresh chives, or finely diced scallion tops (the green part, 3/4 ounce) 1/2 pound bacon, cooked, cooled, and crumbled (about 1 cup) 3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons (7 ounces) heavy cream or whipping cream, or enough to make the dough cohesive Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Lightly grease a baking sheet, or line it with parchment. 1) Whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar. Ladyfingers. There is no comparison between a homemade ladyfinger and a store-bought. These are light and airy, and are extremely tasty eaten plain, or used in your favorite dessert. If you want ladyfingers to remain soft, wrap in plastic or store in an airtight container until ready to use. If you don't mind a crisp ladyfinger, just store on the counter, at room temperature. 3 large eggs, separated 9 tablespoons granulated sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh is best, but bottled will do) pinch of salt 2/3 cup Round Table Pastry Flour confectioners' sugar Preheat oven to 350°F.

Beat the egg yolks, 6 tablespoons granulated sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice and salt until light in color, and most of the sugar has dissolved. In another bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold half the flour into the egg yolk mixture. Transfer the batter to a pastry bag fitted with a half-inch plain round tip. Mini Chocolate Indulgences. This cake is so rich, a small serving is plenty for even the most confirmed chocoholic. The recipe makes a baker’s dozen small cakes, perfect for serving warm with whipped cream or ice cream (mocha chip, perhaps?). 1 pound semisweet or bittersweet chocolate (2 2/3 cups semisweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate) 1/2 cup (1 stick, 4 ounces) unsalted butter 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon espresso powder 1 1/2 teaspoons King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour 2 teaspoons sugar 1 teaspoon hot water 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4 large eggs, separated Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Lightly grease a dozen silicone muffin cups. In a double boiler, or in a microwave, heat together the chocolate and butter till just melted. Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry. Bake the cake for 12 minutes. Grease the silicone cup you’ve just used, and fill it, along with the remaining cups, using a scant 1/4 cup batter in each. Flourless Chocolate Cake. 1) Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease an 8" round cake pan; cut a piece of parchment or waxed paper to fit, grease it, and lay it in the bottom of the pan. 2) To make the cake: Put the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat until the butter is melted and the chips are soft.

Stir until the chips melt, reheating briefly if necessary. You can also do this over a burner set at very low heat. Transfer the melted chocolate/butter to a mixing bowl. 3) Stir in the sugar, salt, espresso powder, and vanilla. 4) Add the eggs, beating briefly until smooth. 5) Spoon the batter into the prepared pan. 6) Bake the cake for 25 minutes; the top will have formed a thin crust, and it should register at least 200°F on an instant-read thermometer inserted into its center. 7) Remove it from the oven, and cool it in the pan for 5 minutes. 8) Loosen the edges of the pan with a table knife or nylon spreader, and turn it out onto a serving plate.

Note: Make sure your 8" round pans are at least 2" deep; if they're not, use one of the other pan options. 2) Mix all of the dry ingredients on slow speed to blend. Add the soft butter and mix until evenly crumbly, like fine damp sand. It may form a paste, depending on the temperature of the butter, how much it's mixed, and granulation of the sugar used. 3) Add the egg whites one at a time, then the whole egg, beating well after each addition to begin building the structure of the cake. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl after each addition. 4) In a small bowl, whisk the yogurt (or milk) with the vanilla and almond extracts. 5) Pour the batter into the prepared pans.

Fairy Cakes. We love the oh-so-cute size and shape these cakes take—reminiscent of a fairy toadstool—when made in a mini cheesecake pan. You'll have enough leftover batter to make one or two conventional-size cupcakes if you use the mini pan. The recipe also fits a standard-size muffin tin perfectly. Frost the cakes with brightly colored buttercream and garnish with homemade fondant butterflies (directions follow). Sugar flowers work as a garnish as well.

Normally I do not start with the dessert but when I came across this recipe for a Guinness chocolate cheesecake I knew that I would be making it immediately. Last year I made a Guinness chocolate cake and I discovered that the combination of Guinness and chocolate is a wonderful one and I could not resist using it in one of my favourite treats, a cheesecake! This recipe for the Guinness chocolate cheesecake is a pretty basic chocolate cheesecake recipe with the addition of the Guinness but the similarities stop there. The addition of the Guinness changes the texture and properties of the cheesecake making it more souffle like. Normally you can tell when a cheesecake is done by shaking it a bit and if only the center wiggles it is done but the entire surface of this cheesecake will wiggle the whole time, even after 2 hours of baking.
