RASPBERRY BAKED ALASKA
Steps:
- Slice the cake into six 1/2-inch-thick slices. Cut six (2 1/2-inch) circles--one from each slice--with an unfluted round cookie cutter, discarding the scraps. (You can also use a small knife.) Place the cake rounds 2 inches apart on a flat dish that will fit in your freezer.
- Soften the sorbet and ice cream just enough to be able to scoop them with a standard 2 1/4-inch-diameter ice cream scoop (15 to 30 seconds in the microwave works). Fill half the scoop with raspberry sorbet and the rest of the scoop with vanilla ice cream and place an ice cream ball, flat side down, in the middle of each cake round. Freeze for at least 30 minutes, until the ice cream is very hard.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
- To make the Swiss meringue, place the egg whites and sugar in a heat-proof glass bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk the mixture almost constantly, until it reaches 120 degrees F on a candy thermometer and the sugar has dissolved. Pour the mixture into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Add the vanilla, cream of tartar, and salt and beat on medium speed for one minute, then on high speed for 5 minutes, until the egg whites form stiff, glossy peaks.
- Transfer the cake rounds and ice cream to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Working quickly, spread the meringue with a spoon or small spatula, making lots of peaks all over with the back of the spoon. (You can also use a pastry bag fitted with a large fluted tip and pipe the meringue thickly around each ball of ice cream and cake.) Be sure all of the ice cream is covered with meringue. Bake for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, until the edges of the meringues are browned, turning the pan once to brown evenly. Transfer to dessert plates, drizzle Fresh Raspberry Sauce around each baked Alaska, and serve immediately.
- Place the raspberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 4 minutes. Pour the cooked raspberries, the jam, and the framboise into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth. Pour into a container and chill. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to one week.

Steps:
- Make cake:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan, then line bottom with wax paper and butter paper.
- Melt chocolate and butter in a metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, stirring, until smooth. Remove bowl from pan and whisk 3/4 cup sugar into chocolate mixture. Whisk in whole eggs and salt, then sift cocoa over and whisk until just combined.
- Pour batter into baking pan, spreading evenly, and bake in middle of oven until a tester comes out with a few crumbs adhering, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool cake in pan on a rack 5 minutes, then invert onto rack and cool completely.
- Cut cake into 6 equal pieces, then arrange 1 piece in each gratin dish, trimming to fit. Top each piece of cake with a large scoop of ice cream (about 1/2 cup), then freeze, covered, just until ice cream is hard, about 25 minutes (do not let ice cream become rock hard unless making ahead - see cooks' note, below).
- Make meringue just before serving:
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Beat egg whites and a pinch of salt with an electric mixer until they just hold soft peaks. Add remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar a little at a time, beating at high speed, and continue beating until whites just hold stiff, glossy peaks, about 5 minutes in a standing mixer or about 12 minutes with a handheld.
- Remove gratin dishes from freezer and mound meringue over ice cream and cake, spreading to edge of gratin dish. Bake on a baking sheet in middle of oven until golden brown, about 6 minutes. Serve immediately.
INDIVIDUAL BAKED ALASKA
This is an "Impress Your Friends" dessert for sure, and it's incredibly simple to make. I've included recipes for sauces here, but you can use whatever sauces, whatever cake bases, whatever ice-cream you like. It's really simple, and delicious. I used to make these all the time in the restaurant I worked in.

Steps:
- To make the chocolate sauce: chop the chocolate to a rough consistency.
- Heat the cream just to a scald, then pour over the chocolate.
- Do not stir.
- Let it sit for about 5 minutes, then stir with a whisk until smooth.
- Makes about 1 cup.
- To make the raspberry sauce: Puree the raspberries in a blender with the remaining ingredients.
- Strain through a fine mesh strainer to remove the seeds.
- Refrigerate until needed.
- Makes about 1 cup.
- To assemble the ice-cream bases: line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Using a 3" round cookie cutter (or a glass) cut 6 circles out of the cake, and place them on the parchment.
- Place a scoop of ice cream in the center of each piece of cake, making sure you leave a small margin of cake visible all the way around.
- Place in the freezer until the meringue is ready.
- To prepare the meringue: combine the sugar, corn syrup and water in a heavy, 1-quart saucepan over medium heat.
- Bring to a boil, then cook until the syrup reaches 230 degrees F.
- (thread stage) on a candy thermometer.
- Meanwhile, place the egg whites in the bowl of your mixer, and fit the whip attachment to your mixer.
- When the syrup reaches the thread stage, start whipping your egg whites on high speed.
- When the syrup reaches 245-250 degrees F.
- (firm-ball stage), lower the speed of the mixer to low, and very, very, VERY slowly start pouring the syrup in, in a slow, steady, thin stream until it is all used up.
- Immediately return the mixer to high speed and continue whipping until the meringue reaches a very stiff peaked consistency.
- Transfer the meringue to a piping bag fit with a plain tip.
- Remove the ice cream bases from the freezer.
- Now you are going to create a meringue"beehive" around each scoop of ice cream.
- I find it easier to do this by removing one ice-cream scoop at a time to a cake turntable or a flat-work surface that I can spin around, like a small plate, pipe the meringue, then using a thin spatula, returning it carefully to the parchment.
- To pipe the meringue you need to start at the bottom edge of the cake, pipe a ring of meringue around the icecream so that it completely covers the cake edge.
- Then continue to pipe a line of meringue all around the scoop of ice cream, making sure you completely cover the ice cream, and that each line of meringue rests on top of the previous one.
- Finish with a small circle at the top.
- Repeat with remaining ice cream bases.
- Return them to the freezer until ready to serve.
- Just before service, decorate your plate: choose an oversize plate, like a dinner plate.
- Then using the sauces, paint or spoon or swirl them on to your hearts content.
- Any design you like.
- I like to just use squiggles, but anything goes at this point.
- Now- if you don't have a torch, you will need to turn your oven to broil.
- If you have a torch, get it ready.
- Remove the meringues from the freezer, and dust the top of each one with the confectioners sugar in a fine mesh strainer.
- If you are using a broiler, place the baking sheet under the broiler but leave the door open and watch.
- You will only need about 30-45 seconds, just enough time for the meringue to turn golden brown.
- Remove from the oven, place one in the center of each plate, and serve.
- If you are using a torch, turn your torch to a med-low setting, and carefully, gently use the torch to brown the outside of the meringues.
- Place one meringue on each plate, and serve.
- Notes: You can use any type of cake you want here- this recipe is more a method than anything.
- I've used chocolate chiffon as a base, I've used spongecake, poundcake, leftover slices of cupcakes!
- Anything, anyflavor, but it needs to be at least 1/4" thick.
- You can also use any flavor ice-cream- experiment, go wild.
- Sorbet is great this way- I've done mango sorbet, and lime sorbet- they taste terrific.
- Experiment, have fun, and don't be intimidated by this dessert.
- It's fun, and it's easy, and your friends and relatives will"oooohhhh!
- "and"ahhhhh!
- "you to death!

- Preheat the oven to 325. Line a 9×9 square pan with parchment or foil, leaving an overhang on two sides. Spray the pan liberally with cooking spray. Set aside Combine the oil, sugars, cocoa, amaretto, salt and vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the almond flour and beat at high speed for 2 minutes. Stir in the melted chocolate. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake for approximately 25 minutes or until a tester near the middle of the pan comes out with lots of moist crumbs. They will seem underdone, that is correct. Let the brownies cool completely in the pan, then remove them from pan by lifting them out with the parchment/foil overhang. Cut the brownie in half into two 9 x 4.5 inch pieces. Set aside.
