SUMMER BERRY BAKED ALASKA
Under that swirly, toasted layer of meringue is a red, white and blue surprise! Blue is achieved by cleverly dipping slices of angel food cake in a fresh blackberry sauce. Vanilla ice cream and raspberry sorbet complete the patriotic color trio.

Steps:
- Simmer blackberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until the blackberries are soft and very saucy, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the lemon juice and zest. Pour into a pie plate and let cool to room temperature.
- Spray a 3 1/2-quart metal or glass bowl with cooking spray and line with plastic wrap, leaving a 1-inch overhang over the edge of the bowl.
- Spread 2 cups of vanilla ice cream over the bottom of the bowl. Use a large piece of plastic wrap to press the ice cream down into the bowl. Dip both sides of half the angel food cake in to the blackberry syrup (like you do with French toast) and arrange, on top of the ice cream, tearing pieces of cake as needed to cover in a flat layer. Top with any remaining sauce.
- Spread the raspberry sorbet over the angel food cake. Use a large piece of plastic wrap to press down the sorbet. Flatten with a spatula and top with the remaining angel food cake slices, tearing pieces of cake as needed to cover in a flat layer. Fold the overhanging plastic over top and gently press down. Freeze until hard, at least 4 hours up to overnight.
- Make the meringue: Whip the egg whites and cream of tartar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until foamy, about 2 minutes. Increase the speed to high, gradually add the sugar and whip until the whites hold stiff peaks and the sugar has dissolved, 5 minutes more. Invert the ice cream cake onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, remove the plastic wrap. (If the cake is difficult to remove, let the bowl stand overturned until it slips out easily, about 5 minutes.) Spread the meringue evenly over the sides, but slightly thicker on top. Use the back of a spoon to make large swirly peaks. Freeze 3 hours or up to 2 days.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Bake the dessert until the meringue is browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Alternately, use a small torch to brown the meringue all over. Use two large spatulas to transfer the baked Alaska to a large serving plate, cake stand or cutting board. Slice into wedges.

Steps:
- Make the ice cream cake: Preheat the oven to 400˚. Put the puff pastry halves on a baking sheet, leaving a little space between each piece. Top with another baking sheet to keep the pastry from puffing up too much. Bake until golden, about 30 minutes.
- Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Remove the top baking sheet and brush the pastry with half the melted butter. Sprinkle with half the cinnamon sugar, then flip the pastry; brush with the remaining butter and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon sugar. Let cool.
- Coat a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray and line with plastic wrap, leaving a 6-inch overhang on the two short ends. Trim the puff pastry pieces if necessary so they fit snugly in the pan; set aside.
- Scoop half the ice cream and sorbet into the pan, alternating flavors. Use a piece of plastic wrap to pack in the ice cream evenly. Spread with half the jam and top with 1 piece of puff pastry. Repeat with the remaining ice cream and sorbet, jam and puff pastry. Cover with the overhanging plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Make the meringue: Beat the egg whites and cream of tartar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until foamy, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Gradually beat in the sugar. Increase the mixer speed to high and beat until stiff, shiny peaks form, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the freeze-dried strawberries and beat until combined, about 1 minute.
- Uncover the ice cream cake and invert onto a foil-lined baking sheet. Let stand until the ice cream cake slips out of the pan easily; unwrap. Spread one-quarter of the meringue over the top and sides. Transfer the remaining meringue to a large piping bag fitted with a 1/2-inch star tip. Pipe over the top and sides of the cake. Freeze until firm, at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.
- Brown the meringue with a kitchen torch (or bake at 500˚ until golden, 3 to 5 minutes). Use two large spatulas to transfer the baked Alaska to a platter and slice.

VANILLA-RASPBERRY BAKED ALASKA
When a simple sundae just won't do, try Martha's individual ice cream bombes instead. Covered in a blanket of marshmallow-y torched meringue, these dome-shaped treats are made with a dacquoise base and a winning combination of vanilla ice cream and raspberry sorbet.

Steps:
- Dacquoise: Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Use a pencil to trace six 3 1/2-inch-diameter circles on a piece of parchment. Turn over parchment and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Using a food processor, finely grind almonds. Transfer to a small bowl and whisk in confectioners' sugar. In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat together egg whites and salt until frothy. Continue beating on high speed while gradually adding superfine sugar until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. Remove bowl from mixer and gently fold almond mixture into meringue. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain round tip. Use a small amount of meringue to adhere prepared parchment to each corner of baking sheet. Pipe rounds of meringue using traced circles as a guide, starting at outer edge of each circle and moving toward center. Bake until firm and dry, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Let cool completely on sheet.
- Filling: Line six 4-inch bowls with plastic wrap and freeze until chilled, at least 20 minutes. Spread about 6 tablespoons sorbet into each bowl, pressing firmly into bottom to create a smooth surface and prevent air pockets. Freeze until solid, about 1 hour. Spread about 1/2 cup ice cream evenly over sorbet in each bowl, pressing firmly to create a smooth surface and prevent air pockets. Place one dacquoise round, top-side down, on ice cream, pressing gently to adhere. Wrap overhanging plastic over the top and freeze until solid, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
- Unwrap plastic on top of bowls (dip exterior of bowls in warm water to loosen, if necessary). Invert bowls onto a rimmed baking sheet, remove plastic wrap, and refreeze until ready to serve.
- Meringue Topping: Just before serving, combine egg whites and sugar in the heatproof bowl of a stand mixer set over (not in) a pot of simmering water. Whisk until sugar is dissolved and mixture is warm to the touch. Transfer bowl to mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a 3/8-inch plain round tip (such as Ateco #804); decoratively pipe meringue over each bombe to cover. Lightly brown meringue all over with a small kitchen torch. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- To make the strawberry sauce, puree the strawberries and sugar in a food processor until liquefied. Lighty coat a 10 1/2 by 15 1/2-inch jelly roll pan with nonstick vegetable spray. Add the batter to the pan and bake for 13 to 15 minutes, until lightly tanned and springy. Set on a rack to cool. Cut out two circles of cake, one 5 inches in diameter; the other 4 1/4 inches in diameter. Cut out a rectangle 3 by 15 1/2 inches. Sprinkle the cake with the orange liqueur. Wrap the ice cream container in a hot towel to loosen it. Invert the container onto the larger cake circle. Top with the smaller circle. Use the cake rectangle to wrap the sides, making sure that the wet side of the cake is facing in. Fill any gap with leftover scraps. Return the cake to the freezer. Set a rack towards the bottom of the oven with plenty of room above it.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- To make the Italian Meringue, put the water, corn syrup, and sugar in a small saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer. Over high heat, bring the temperature to 246 degrees. In the meantime, completely clean and dry mixing bowl. With an electric mixer, whisk the egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar until creamy, foamy, and barely able to hold very soft peaks. With the mixer running on slow, carefully drizzle in the hot syrup. Continue to whisk on high, for about 2 minutes, until the consistency of shaving cream; slightly glossy and able to hold soft peaks. Set the cake on a heatproof serving platter. With a metal spatula, spread the meringue entirely around the cake. With a pastry bag fitted with a star tip, pipe any leftover meringue in a decorative pattern. Pipe one large rosette in the top and plant the eggshell in it. Dust the meringue with the confectioners' sugar. Bake for 2 to 3 minutes until lightly tanned. Pour the strawberry sauce around the bottom of the platter. In the meantime, gently warm the rum or brandy in a small saucepan. Pour it into the egg shell and drizzle the rest over the cake. Ignite!

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter and line a 20cm cake tin. Beat together the butter and sugar using a hand whisk or freestanding mixer, for 5 mins until pale and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla and eggs, then fold through the flour, lemon zest and milk. Spoon the mixture into the tin, smooth over and bake for 18-20 mins until golden and firm to the touch. Leave to cool completely before starting the meringue.
- Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks in a clean bowl, then add the sugar 1 tbsp at a time while whisking continuously, until you have a thick, glossy mixture that holds its shape when the beaters are lifted away from the bowl. Quickly beat in the vinegar.
- Remove the ice cream from the freezer 10 mins before you assemble to soften slightly. Place the sponge on a serving plate. Spread the jam over the top of the sponge in an even layer. Scoop balls of the ice cream into a mound in the middle of the sponge, leaving a 1-2cm gap of sponge around the edge. Gently smooth the side and top of the ice cream with a palette knife. Spoon and swirl the meringue around the outside of the ice cream and cake base with a large spoon. Use a blow torch to evenly brown the outside of the meringue, if you have one. Cut into wedges to serve.

Steps:
- Line 4 individual pudding moulds with cling film - brushing with oil first will help. Divide the ice cream between them, shaping so an even thickness covers the base and sides with a hollow in the middle. Mix the jam with 2 tsp of the kirsch, spoon into the ice-cream hollows, cover and freeze overnight.
- For the base, heat oven to 180C/ fan 160C/gas 4. Butter and line a 20cm square cake tin. Reserve 2 tbsp of the almonds, then whizz the rest in a food processor until finely chopped and tip into a bowl with the flour, butter, beaten whole eggs and 100g caster sugar. Beat until smooth, then spread into the tin and bake for 15-18 mins until golden and springy. Cool on a wire rack. This cake will sit quite happily in a tin for 24 hrs, but stamp out the bases on the day or the edges will dry overnight.
- For the meringue, whisk the egg whites until stiff, then add the remaining sugar and continue whisking until the meringue is thick and glossy. Can be chilled for up to 5 hrs. With a 7cm round cutter or rim of a pudding mould, cut 4 bases from the almond sponge. Drizzle with the rest of the kirsch, then sit them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
- When you're ready to serve, heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Turn 1 ice cream out onto each round of cake, peeling off the cling film, then spread over meringue using a knife or small spatula until completely covered. Scatter with remaining almonds and bake for 3 mins until the tips of the meringues are just browning. Lift onto serving plates with a fish slice and serve immediately.

- In a medium mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until well combined and a bit fluffy. Sift together the flour and salt, then add to butter mixture, stirring until just combined. Mix in the cranberries, being careful not to overwork the dough.
- While cookies bake, use an ice cream scoop to scoop ice cream. Working quickly, use your finger to make a small hole in the ice cream, fill with mixed berries, then cover with more ice cream to seal. Repeat 6 to 8 times (or for as many cookies as you have), placing scoops on a parchment paper-lined plate. Place in freezer to harden until you're ready to assemble.
