2. 2 When the polenta has thickened, gently blend mascarpone cheese into it. Remove the pan from heat. Spread polenta-cheese mixture to a 2-inch thickness on an oil-coated surface. When cool, cut a disk using a drinking glass as a cutter. Saute polenta disks in olive oil, in a non-stick skillet. Set aside. (Can be prepared in advance).
3. 3 Coat shrimp with hazelnuts and wrap each with a slice of ham. In a skillet, saute shrimp carefully in remaining olive oil. Remove shrimp from the pan and keep them warm.
4. 4 Pour hazelnut liquor into another skillet (or the same skillet used to saute the shrimp, cleaned). When hazelnut flavored liquor is hot (but well under the boiling point), carefully flambe (by touching the edge of the pan with the flame of a match or taper). Be careful and stand back when cooking with open flame! When flames die down, add cream and remaining hazelnuts. Lower heat and continue cooking until mixture thickens.
5. 5 To assemble, place a polenta disk in the center of a serving dish. Arrange shrimp around the plate. Drizzle sauce mixture on top. Garnish with green onions.

• semisweet chocolate
• confectioners sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. 2 In a medium bowl, whip egg yolks and 1/4 cup of sugar with an electric mixer until thick and pale. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites (with clean beaters) to soft peaks. Gradually sprinkle in the remaining 1/2 cup sugar while whipping to medium stiff peaks. Fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites. Gently fold in the flour and 1 teaspoon vanilla. The batter should be thick and pale yellow.
3. 3 Trace two 9 inch circles onto the parchment paper using a cake pan as a guide. Spread or pipe batter to completely fill inside the lines of the circles. Batter should be about 1/2 inch tall.
4. 4 Load the remaining batter into a pastry bag fitted with a half inch tip or hole. Draw parallel lines onto another piece of parchment that are 3 inches apart. Pipe the batter back and forth just between the lines in a compressed S motion, until you run out of batter. This is the part that wraps around the outside of the cake. (It helps to have it in one piece, but you can pipe individual fingers using the guidelines drawn on the paper, if you prefer.) There may be extra.
5. 5 Bake in preheated oven 10 to 15 minutes, until firm but not browned. Remove from the oven and dust generously with confectioners' sugar. Set aside to cool.
6. 6 To make the syrup, stir together 1 cup sugar, boiling water, coffee and 1/4 cup rum until sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
7. 7 To make the filling, combine mascarpone, 2 cups confectioners' sugar, dark rum and 1 teaspoon vanilla in a large bowl. Whisk together until completely smooth, scraping the bottom of the bowl to remove any lumps. Gradually whisk in the heavy cream. Whip with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Stop whipping when the mixture shows the first sign of graininess.
8. 8 To assemble, line the sides of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment or waxed paper. Place one of the ladyfinger rounds in the bottom of the pan. Brush generously, but do not soak completely, with syrup. Place the 3-inch high ladyfinger strips around the inside edge of the pan, so that the sides are completely covered. Brush generously with syrup.
9. 9 Spread half of the filling mixture over the first ladyfinger round in the pan. Place the remaining ladyfinger round on top of the filling. Soak the second ladyfinger round with syrup until it cannot take any more. Spread the remaining filling over that and smooth the top. Sprinkle with grated chocolate. Refrigerate at least 4 hours.
10. 10 To serve, remove the sides of the pan and carefully remove the parchment or waxed paper from the outside of the cake. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

Ingredients

• ✓ mascarpone cheese
• mint leaves
• sugar
• heavy cream
• vanilla extract
• powdered sugar
• water
• cornstarch
• white sugar
• blackberry
• salt
• thyme
• flour
• egg
• vanilla extract
• powdered sugar
• butter

Instructions

1. 1 Beat butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract; beat to combine. Add egg; beat until incorporated. Gradually beat in flour, thyme, and salt until dough comes together and pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Knead dough slightly; shape into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. 2 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch round or 13x4-inch rectangular tart pan with a removable bottom.
3. 3 Press dough evenly into the prepared tart pan.
4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 12 to 14 minutes. Cool completely before filling, about 30 minutes.
5. 5 Combine 1/2 blackberries and 1/2 tablespoon white sugar in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir, crushing berries with a spoon, 4 to 5 minutes. Press mixture through a fine-mesh sieve; discard solids. Return crushed berries to the saucepan.
6. 6 Combine cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl; add to the crushed berries and cook over medium heat until comes to a boil and starts to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes. Cool.
7. 7 Beat mascarpone cheese, 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth.
8. 8 Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until frothy. Add 1 tablespoon white sugar gradually, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Fold whipped cream into mascarpone mixture; mix well. Spread filling evenly into the cooled crust. Drop teaspoonfuls blackberry sauce on top of filling; gently cut through sauce and filling using a knife to swirl. Garnish top of tart with remaining 1/2 blackberries and mint.

Ingredients

• ✓ mascarpone cheese
• cinnamon
• eggnog
• whipping cream
• powdered sugar
• vanilla extract
• powdered sugar
• salt
• allspice
• ginger
• baking powder
• cinnamon
• all-purpose flour
• applesauce
• molasses
• white sugar
• egg
• flour
• cooking spray

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with foil. Spray the foil and the sides of the pan with nonstick spray.
2. 2 Place eggs in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer on high speed for 5 minutes. Gradually beat in sugar, molasses, and applesauce.
3. 3 Stir flour, cinnamon, baking powder, ginger, allspice, and salt together in a separate bowl. Add to the wet ingredients and mix to combine. Spread into the prepared pan.
4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes.
5. 5 Lay a kitchen towel on a work surface and sprinkle liberally with 1/4 cup powdered sugar, or as needed. Remove cake from the oven and immediately turn out onto the towel.
6. 6 Start at the narrow end and roll the towel and cake together. Let sit until completely cool, about 2 hours. The cake will be sticky, soft, and spongy; it might come off a little on your fingers, but that's okay.
7. 7 Place mascarpone cheese in a medium mixing bowl. Beat with a hand mixer or an electric wire whisk and gradually add vanilla, followed by 1 cup powdered sugar. Slowly add whipping cream and continue to beat until icing becomes light and fluffy. Mix in eggnog.
8. 8 Unroll the cooled cake and gently remove the towel. Spread about 1/2 of the filling over the cake, leaving about 1/2 inch uncovered at the edges. Start at the narrow end and re-roll the cake. As you roll, the filling will shift a little and you may need to remove some if you've put too much on; that's okay, just have a knife handy to scrape off any excess as you roll.
9. 9 Cut into slices. Top with remaining filling and dust with cinnamon and powdered sugar. Or, wrap cake in plastic wrap before slicing, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before serving.
