Instructions

  1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
  2. 2 Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C). Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  3. 3 Beat egg whites in a large glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until foamy. Add vanilla, cream of tartar, and salt.
  4. 4 Continue whipping until soft peaks form. Gradually sprinkle in sugar so that it does not sink to the bottom and continue whipping until meringue holds stiff shiny peaks. Place a round tip into a pastry bag and fill the bag halfway with meringue.
  5. 5 To pipe mushroom caps, squeeze out round mounds of meringue onto one of the prepared cookie sheets. Pull the bag off to the side to avoid making peaks on the top. Refill the bag with meringue as needed.
  6. 6 To pipe mushroom stems, press out a tiny bit of meringue onto the remaining cookie sheet, then pull the bag straight up. They should resemble candy kisses. Do not worry about making all of the pieces exactly the same. The mushrooms will look more natural if the pieces are different sizes.
  7. 7 Dust mushroom caps lightly with cocoa using a small sifter or strainer.
  8. 8 Bake in the preheated oven until meringues are dry enough to easily remove from the cookie sheets, about 1 hour. Set aside to cool completely.
  9. 9 Melt coating chocolate in a metal bowl over simmering water or in a glass bowl in the microwave, stirring occasionally until smooth.
  10. 10 Rotate the tip of a paring knife in the bottom of a mushroom cap to create a small hole. Spread chocolate over the bottom of the cap. Dip the tip of a stem in chocolate and press lightly into the hole.
  11. 11 When chocolate sets, the cap and stem will hold together. Repeat with remaining meringues. Store at room temperature in a dry place or tin.

Instructions

  1. 1 Whip 1 ⅔ cups confectioners' sugar, ½ cup butter, coffee-flavored liqueur, 1 ½ tablespoons cocoa powder, and 1 pinch salt together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on high speed.
  2. 2 Transfer filling to a separate bowl; stir in mascarpone cheese until combined. Set aside. Clean and dry the stand mixer bowl.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  4. 4 Brush a 13x18-inch rimmed baking sheet with a little melted butter. Line the baking sheet with parchment paper; brush parchment with remaining melted butter.
  5. 5 Whisk ½ cup cocoa powder, flour, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt together in a bowl, making sure to break up any clumps.
  6. 6 Place eggs in the clean stand mixer bowl fitted with the whisk attachment. Add sugar; whip until fluffy, thick, and very light in color, 2 to 3 minutes.
  7. 7 Add vanilla extract and ½ cocoa powder mixture; mix on low speed for a few seconds.
  8. 8 Add remaining ½ cocoa mixture; mix on low for a few seconds. Switch to high speed; mix until the mixture is moistened but not fully blended.
  9. 9 Pull off the whisk attachment and use it to whisk the batter by hand until evenly blended.
  10. 10 Pour batter onto the prepared baking sheet; spread out with a spatula, almost to the edges, but not quite. Tap the baking sheet on the counter several times to remove any large air bubbles.
  11. 11 Bake in the preheated oven until the top is dry and the edges start to pull away from the sides, 8 to 10 minutes.
  12. 12 Meanwhile, sift some confectioners' sugar onto a clean kitchen towel to cover an area slightly larger than the sponge cake.
  13. 13 Remove cake from the oven. Run a knife around edges of the baking sheet. Dust some confectioners' sugar over top of cake. Run a spatula under the parchment paper to make sure it's not stuck to the baking sheet.
  14. 14 Quickly flip the baking sheet on top of the sugared area on the towel to invert the cake.
  15. 15 Carefully remove the parchment paper, then sift more confectioners' sugar over cake.
  16. 16 Gently roll cake up inside the towel; set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
  17. 17 Carefully unroll the cooled cake. Dollop as much buttercream filling as you like on top, reserving some for later; spread to the edges.
  18. 18 Roll cake up over the filling, using the towel to lift it if needed.
  19. 19 Sprinkle more confectioners' sugar over top of log; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
  20. 20 Pour hot cream over chocolate chips in a bowl; set aside for 1 minute, then whisk until chocolate is melted.
  21. 21 Cut log at an angle 3 inches from one end of log. Place log on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  22. 22 Spread some filling on the angled slice; attach it to one side of the log.
  23. 23 Spread a layer of ganache all over cake, except for the swirls on the ends. Refrigerate until ganache firms up, 15 minutes.
  24. 24 Carve lines into ganache to create the appearance of tree bark using the tip of a knife. Refrigerate until completely chilled.
  25. 25 Dust with cocoa powder and confectioners' sugar before serving.

60 min

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Thoroughly grease the the bottom and sides of four ramekins with the tablespoon of butter. Coat with sugar, tipping out any excess. If desired, place a raspberry and a drizzle of chocolate as a "surprise" at the bottom of each cup.
  2. 2 Combine the cocoa powder, cornstarch, and a tablespoon of the sugar; set aside. Mix the butter and flour to form a paste. Lightly whisk one egg yolk in a heatproof bowl.
  3. 3 Heat the milk to the boiling point in a heavy saucepan; whisk in the flour-butter mixture until it melts. Gradually pour the hot milk into the egg yolk in a steady stream, whisking constantly. Return the mixture to the saucepan and bring the custard to a simmer over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or spatula.
  4. 4 Cook and stir the custard until it thickens, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat, stirring occasionally to keep it smooth. Combine the three remaining egg yolks with the vanilla, liqueur, and the sugar-cocoa-cornstarch mixture. Whisk in the warm custard, cover, and set aside. (The custard can be made ahead of time up to this point and refrigerated for a day before proceeding with the recipe.)
  5. 5 About 35 minutes before serving, whip the egg whites until they are thick and foamy and have quadrupled in volume. Gradually mix in the remaining 3 tablespoons of the sugar, whipping until the egg whites are stiff but not dry. Fold 1/3 of the meringue into the custard to lighten it, using a whisk or rubber spatula. Fold in the remaining meringue.
  6. 6 Immediately transfer the souffle batter into the prepared ramekins, making a smooth mound slightly above the rim of each ramekin. (If you have a piping bag, you may pipe the mixture into the ramekins.) Bake at once in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the souffles have risen and the edges are set. Serve hot, with raspberry sauce and fresh raspberries to garnish, if desired.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 355 degrees F (180 degrees C). Grease a jelly roll pan. Line it with parchment paper, and grease the paper.
  2. 2 Beat 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar and egg yolks until light and fluffy. Add 3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoons flour, butter, lukewarm water, and baking powder; beat until well combined.
  3. 3 Beat egg whites and salt in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff. Transfer 1/3 of the whites to the cake batter and gently fold in. Repeat with remaining whites. Spoon batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until it springs back when pressed gently in the middle, about 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit in the pan for 3 minutes, before carefully turning the cake out onto a large piece of parchment paper. Roll the parchment and cake from one short end to the other and let cool.
  5. 5 While the cake is cooling, place chocolate for buttercream in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  6. 6 Beat softened butter in a bowl until light and creamy. Add powdered sugar in small increments, beating between each addition. Add melted chocolate and beat until well combined.
  7. 7 Carefully unroll the cooled sponge cake. Spread a thin layer of buttercream across the top to the edges. Firmly roll back up, using parchment to help you, into a tight roll.
  8. 8 At one end of the roll, cut off a diagonal slice to represent a branch, about 2 inches in length at the longest side. Frost the entire roll with buttercream. Use a palette knife to create uneven ridges to represent tree bark. Position the branch somewhere near the center of the log and cover with buttercream.
  9. 9 Drag the tines of a fork lengthwise across the buttercream to create an extra bark effect. Dust the entire log with cocoa powder.

Instructions

  1. 1 Prepare the pastry cream: Cut vanilla bean in half crosswise, then cut a slit lengthwise down each half. Use the edge of the knife to scrape out all the seeds. Discard the pods or reserve for another use.
  2. 2 Combine sugar, cornstarch, salt, egg, egg yolks, milk, and vanilla seeds in a saucepan; whisk until well combined.
  3. 3 Place over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom surface of the pan, until thick, about 10 minutes.
  4. 4 Remove from the heat and whisk to release some steam. Add butter and keep stirring until melted. Pass through a fine sieve to remove any fibrous bits from the vanilla pod. Place plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pastry cream to cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 2 to 3 hours.
  5. 5 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner (such as Silpat®).
  6. 6 Combine butter, water, and salt for the pate choux in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a simmer. Add flour and stir with a wooden spoon until a buttery dough forms. Continue to cook and stir until a starchy film forms on the bottom of the pan. Turn off the heat and continue stirring for 1 more minute.
  7. 7 Transfer to a bowl. Add one egg and mix it in with a little dough. Once that's incorporated, mix it in with the remaining dough. Repeat with the second egg. Continue stirring until you have a very sticky dough. Use a spatula to clean off the whisk if necessary.
  8. 8 Transfer the dough into a pastry bag and snip off the tip making a ½-inch opening. Pipe two 6-inch heart shapes on the prepared baking sheet. Start by making thin shapes and then pipe extra dough to make them thicker. To fine-tune the hearts, dip your fingers in water and fix any imperfections if desired.
  9. 9 Bake in the center of the preheated oven until beautifully browned, about 30 minutes. Turn off the heat, leave the pastries in the oven, and prop the oven door open with a wooden spoon. Let sit until crispy and dried out, about 1 hour.
  10. 10 Use a serrated knife to slice the hearts in half horizontally.
  11. 11 Remove pastry cream from the refrigerator and transfer to a pastry bag. Generously pipe cream into the bottom half of each heart, then place the top halves on the cream.
  12. 12 Heat cream in a saucepan until simmering.
  13. 13 Place chocolate chips in a small bowl and pour hot cream over top. Let sit for 2 to 3 minutes, then whisk until chocolate has melted and ganache is thick and shiny. Let cool for about 5 minutes.
  14. 14 Spoon ganache on top of each heart. Reserve any remaining ganache for another use. Refrigerate éclairs until the ganache is firm, about 15 minutes.
  15. 15 Place éclairs on serving plates. Fill the center of each heart with raspberries and sift cocoa powder over top. Sift powdered sugar over just the raspberries and serve. (Each éclair is enough for two people.)
