Ricotta Pumpkin Pie Food

PUMPKIN-CRANBERRY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Wrap the outside (bottom and side) of a 9-inch springform pan with foil. Make the crust: Pulse the cookies and sugar in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter; pulse to combine. Press into the bottom and about 1/4 inch up the side of the pan. Brush the side of the pan lightly with melted butter. Bake until golden and set, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack; cool completely.
• Make the filling: Drain the ricotta in a fine-mesh sieve, 20 minutes. Combine with the sugar in the food processor; pulse until smooth. Add the pumpkin, eggs, mascarpone, vanilla, pie spice and salt; pulse until combined. (Do not overmix.) Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake until set around the edge but the center still jiggles slightly, 1 1/2 hours to 1 hour 45 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate until cold and set, at least 8 hours or overnight.
• Make the topping: Chop 1 cup cranberries and put in a small saucepan with the sugar, lemon juice, salt and 1/3 cup water. Cook over medium heat until thick, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the remaining 3/4 cup whole cranberries; cook 2 more minutes. Let cool.
• Let the cheesecake sit at room temperature 20 minutes, then run a thin knife around the edge and remove the springform ring. Add a splash of water to the cranberry topping to loosen, if needed, then spread over the cheesecake.

Use your fingertips to press dough against bottom and sides of dish until even. Trim edges; refrigerate scraps in plastic wrap until step 4.
• Prick bottom of pastry shell all over with a fork. Bake until set and pale golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack. With a small knife, trim edgeof shell where uneven to leave a 1/4-inch space between shell and top of dish.
• Raise oven temperature to 375 degrees. Processricotta in a food processor until smooth. Add the mascarpone, pumpkin, sugar, salt, nutmeg, and vanilla; process until well combined, about 30 seconds. Add yolks; process until combined, about10 seconds. Pour into pastry shell.
• Tear reserved chilled dough scraps into 1-inch pieces. On a lightly floured surface, gently roll pieces with your hands to make 1/4-inch-thick ropes. Gentlypress one long rope around top edge of shell (patch two ropes together, if necessary). Gently place other pastry ropes on top of filling to create a lattice pattern (ropes of all lengths can be used). Place 3 pine nuts in each square of lattice. Brush latticework with egg white.
• Bake crostata until crust is golden brown and filling is set, about 40 minutes. Let cool on rack.

AUTHENTIC ITALIAN RICOTTA PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°.
• Stir together ricotta and 6 eggs until smooth.
• Stir in sugar, vanilla, heavy cream, milk and cinnamon.
• Set aside filling.
• In medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder and sugar.
• Cut in butter with pastry blender until chunks resemble coarse crumbs.
• Mix in lightly beaten eggs and vanilla extract just until incorporated.
• Divide dough in half, wrap tightly in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Roll out dough to fit into 2 greased pie plates.
• (Not too thick though, because this dough will expand due to the baking powder and eggs.)
• The dough is crumbly so I don't suggest fluting the edges.
• Pour the ricotta filling evenly into both pie pans.
• Shield edges of crust all the way around with foil and place pies in the oven.
• Bake for 30 minutes, then remove foil and rotate pies if needed so they cook evenly.
• Bake an additional 30 - 45 minutes, until crust is golden and a sharp knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Cool completely, then refrigerate before serving.
• Optional: garnish with whipped cream and lemon zest if desired.
