PUMPKIN ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a jelly roll pan (15 x 10'') with parchment paper, leaving an extra inch of parchment sticking up on both long sides of the pan so that you can easily lift the cake out after baking. (You can VERY lightly grease the parchment paper, if you want to, but you don't need to!)
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. In a separate bowl mix the eggs, sugar, vanilla and pumpkin until smooth.
• Add dry ingredients to the bowl and stir just until combined and no dry streaks remain.
• Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
• Bake for 14-15 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Immediately lift the payment paper and hot cake out of the pan and onto a flat (heat-safe) surface.
• While the cake is hot, starting at one of the short ends, use your hands to gently and slowly roll the cake (and parchment paper!) all the way up. Allow it to cool completely, on top of a wire cooling rack. (This allows it to cool underneath the roll, and keeps the cake from sweating).
• While the cake roll is cooling, mix the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar together with an electric mixer until it is fluffy and smooth.
• Once the cake roll is cooled completely, unroll it very carefully. Gently smooth the filling in an even layer over the cake.
• Roll up the cake without the parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, before serving.
• Dust the top with powdered sugar, if desired. You could use a duster, spoon, or even your fingers to lightly sprinkle it on top of the roll. Cut into slices and serve.
• Store in the fridge, covered, for up to three days.

PUMPKIN ROULADE WITH GINGER BUTTERCREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 13 by 18 by 1-inch sheet pan. Line the pan with parchment paper and grease and flour the paper.
• In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt and stir to combine. Place the eggs and granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed for 3 minutes, until light yellow and thickened. With the mixer on low, add the pumpkin, then slowly add the flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated. Finish mixing the batter by hand with a rubber spatula. Pour into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake the cake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the top springs back when gently touched.
• While the cake is baking, lay out a clean, thin cotton dish towel on a flat surface and sift the entire 1/4 cup of confectioners' sugar evenly over it. (This will prevent the cake from sticking to the towel.) As soon as you remove the cake from the oven, loosen it around the edges and invert it squarely onto the prepared towel. Peel away the parchment paper. With a light touch, roll the warm cake and the towel together (don't press!) starting at the short end of the cake. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Meanwhile, make the filling. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the mascarpone, confectioners' sugar, and cream together for about a minute, until light and fluffy. Stir in the crystallized ginger, and salt.
• To assemble, carefully unroll the cake onto a board with the towel underneath. Spread the cake evenly with the filling. Reroll the cake in a spiral using the towel as a guide. Remove the towel and trim the ends to make a neat edge. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve sliced.

SWISS ROLL PUMPKINS

Steps:

• For the cake decorating paste: In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter and confectioners' sugar. Add the egg white and beat again until it incorporates into the butter and sugar, about 2 minutes. Sift the flour into the mixing bowl and beat on low speed until just combined. Add the 2 food colors and mix until a consistent orange-red is achieved. Transfer the paste to a disposable piping bag and snip a tiny hole in the end using scissors.
• Cut a sheet of parchment paper to fit inside a 15-by-10-inch jelly roll pan. Draw horizontal lines onto the paper using a pencil or pen in 1-inch increments. Flip the paper over so that the side with the drawn lines is touching the pan. You should be able to see the lines through the paper. Pipe lines of the cake decorating paste over the lines. Place the pan in the freezer while the sponge cake batter is prepared.
• For the whipped egg whites: In the bowl of an electric mixer, whip the egg whites and granulated sugar together to stiff peaks. Set aside.
• For the sponge batter: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the almond flour, confectioners' sugar, all-purpose flour, whole eggs and egg yolk until combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Add the orange gel food color and mix until incorporated. With a large rubber spatula, gently fold in the whipped egg whites, being careful to not deflate the batter.
• Remove the jelly roll pan from the freezer and pour the sponge batter on top. Smooth the batter gently using an offset spatula.
• Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cake springs back when pressed in the center. Remove from the oven and loosen the edges with a small knife. Turn the cake out onto a parchment sheet and peel away the lined parchment paper on top of the cake.
• Sprinkle a tea towel with about 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar. Turn the sponge cake onto the tea towel striped-side down. Roll the cake into the tea towel from a short end. Fold the ends of the towel under and let the cake rest at room temperature while the pumpkin spice ganache is prepared.
• For the pumpkin spice ganache: Combine the heavy cream, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice and orange food color in a large microwave-safe bowl. Whisk together until the ingredients are incorporated. Heat in the microwave at 30-second intervals until the mixture is hot and steaming but not boiling (about 1 minute).
• Immediately add the white chocolate to the steaming mixture and let stand 1 minute. Stir using a whisk until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until set, about 1 1/2 hours. The mixture can also be poured into a shallow 13-by-9-inch baking dish to speed setting.
• For the buttercream: In a medium bowl, beat together the butter and confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and food color. Beat again until a consistent green color is achieved. Transfer half of the buttercream to a piping bag fitted with a leaf decorator piping tip (leaf tip #70). Transfer the other half to a piping bag with a tiny hole snipped in the end.
• For the assembly: Carefully unroll the cake and remove it from the tea towel. Allow the tightly curled end of the cake to remain curled. Spread the inside of the cake evenly with the chilled pumpkin spice ganache. Roll the cake up jelly roll style.
• Combine the granulated sugar and 1/4 cup water in a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 30-second intervals until the sugar is dissolved. Let cool slightly. Gently coat the outside of the cake roll with the sugar syrup using a pastry brush. Use just enough to remove the confectioners' sugar appearance on the cake's exterior. You may not have to use all of the syrup.
• Cut the cake evenly into 4 pieces using a serrated knife. Stand each piece upright on a large serving platter (or 4 small plates) so that the stripes are vertical. Break each wafer cookie in half and insert them upright into the centers of the cakes to create pumpkin stems.
• Use the piping bag of green buttercream fitted with the leaf tip to pipe leaves next to the wafer stems. Use the other piping bag of buttercream to draw curling pumpkin vines next to the stems and leaves.
• Serve immediately to delighted guests.

PUMPKIN LASAGNA ROLLS

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the lasagna noodles 1 minute longer than the package directions for al dente. The pasta should be tender enough to roll without cracking. Rinse with cold water and drain well. Lay in a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and whole sage leaves and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, 6 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and cook, stirring, until sandy in consistency and lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the milk, pumpkin pie spice, 1/2 cup of the pumpkin, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce is smooth and thickens to the consistency of gravy, 6 to 8 minutes. Add 2/3 cup of the Parmesan and cook, stirring, until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the sage leaves and discard; allow the sauce to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Beat the egg in a large bowl then stir in the ricotta, 2 cups of the mozzarella, the remaining pumpkin, chopped sage, crushed red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Brush a 13-by-9-inch baking dish with the olive oil. Spread 1 cup of the sauce onto the bottom of the dish.
• Lay half of the cooked lasagna noodles on a clean work surface and spread 2 heaping tablespoons of the ricotta mixture evenly over each. Starting with a short end, roll each noodle up and transfer to the prepared baking dish seam-side down. Repeat with the remaining noodles and ricotta mixture. Spoon the remaining sauce over the lasagna rolls and sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup mozzarella and 1/3 cup Parmesan.
• Cover with foil and bake until the rolls are heated through and the sauce is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until the cheese is browned on top, 18 to 20 minutes. Garnish with the torn sage leaves, if using, and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
