CORNMEAL ROSEMARY CAKE WITH LEMON FONDANT
Recipe by Tom Douglas. The icing for this cake is not a classic fondant, but an almost transparent powdered sugar glaze flecked with rosemary leaves and lemon zest. The rosemary is blanched first, to remove some of its pungency. For a less dressy cake, you could omit the fondant. Simply brush the cake with the lemon syrup and serve with sliced fresh figs or small bunches of grapes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Butter a 9-inch cake pan, line it with a circle of parchment paper, and butter the paper.
- In a bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, rosemary, zest, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, briefly whisk the mascarpone to loosen it.
- Add the eggs one at a time, whisking to combine.
- Add the sugar and whisk until smooth.
- Using a rubber spatula, fold the dry ingredients, in two batches, into the wet ingredients, mixing until smooth.
- Stir in the butter.
- Scrape the cake batter into the prepared pan and bake until a skewer comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
- While the cake is baking, make the lemon syrup.
- Combine the lemon juice and the sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove from the heat.
- Allow the cake pan to cool on a rack for 5 minutes before unmolding.
- To unmold, run a small knife around the cake.
- Place an inverted plate over the cake pan and, protecting your hands with a kitchen towel, invert the whole thing.
- The cake should slide right out onto the plate.
- Peel off the parchment paper, then place a 9-inch cardboard circle or an inverted plate over the cake and, again, invert the whole thing.
- Remove the top plate and the cake will be right side up.
- With a wooden skewer, poke a few dozen holes all over the top of the cake.
- While the cake is still warm, brush the cake with the lemon syrup.
- Continue brushing for several minutes, giving the syrup time to sink into the cake, until you've used all or most of the syrup.
- Allow the cake to cool.
- To make the lemon fondant, bring a small saucepan of water to a boil.
- Add the rosemary leaves and blanch them for one minute.
- Scoop out the rosemary leaves with a small sieve and drop them immediately into a small bowl of ice water.
- Drain, and spread the rosemary leaves on a paper towel to dry.
- In a bowl, whisk the powdered sugar, cream, and lemon juice until smooth, then whisk in the blanched rosemary and the zest.
- When the cake is completely cool, transfer it to a rack set over a baking sheet.
- (If your cake is not on a cardboard circle, use a wide spatula to transfer it.) Pour the fondant over the top of the cake and allow it to drip off the sides.
- You can gently tilt the cardboard circle or the wire rack back and forth to encourage the glaze to completely flow over the top of the cake.
- While the glaze is still wet, transfer the cake to a cake plate.
- Allow the fondant to dry, an hour or more, before serving the cake.
- (If you allow the glaze to dry before you transfer it, the glaze may crack a bit, unless you are transferring it on a cardboard circle.) Because this cake is quite moist, you can make it one day ahead.
- After the cake is brushed with the syrup, allow it to cool completely, then wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and leave it at room temperature.
- A few hours before you're ready to serve the cake, make the fondant and glaze the cake.

ROSEMARY OLIVE OIL CAKE WITH LEMON BUTTERCREAM
When chef Anne Burrell got engaged to Stuart Claxton, she wanted a wedding with some traditional elements and some unexpected ones. Her six-tier cake was a perfect mix of the two: a creation straight out of a fairy tale - but with totally surprising flavors inside. She called on one of the most creative bakers she knows, her friend Buddy Valastro, to pull off the feat, and together they settled on this showstopper, made with rosemary olive oil cake and lemon buttercream. (To play up the harvest theme of the October event, Buddy decorated it with vegetables molded from Rice Krispies treats!) Here's a scaled-down cake recipe straight from Buddy so you can try it yourself.

Steps:
- Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 300˚ F. Coat two 8-inch round cake pans with cooking spray. Combine the sugar, 2 1/3 cups flour, the baking powder, salt and 2 egg yolks in a large bowl; beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until well mixed. Stream in 1 cup olive oil and mix about 30 seconds. Beat in the 3 whole eggs, one at a time. Stream in the milk and vanilla and mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and 3 teaspoons flour. Fold the rosemary mixture into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the cake pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, 20 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely in the pans.
- Make the lemon curd: In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup sugar, the egg yolk, lemon zest and juice, cornstarch and 1 tablespoon butter. Stir continuously with a rubber spatula until the mixture boils and thickens, about 1 minute. Transfer the lemon curd to a bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate to cool.
- Make the buttercream: Set up a stand mixer with the whisk attachment. In a medium saucepan, heat the egg whites and remaining 1 cup sugar over medium heat until the mixture reaches 160˚ F and the sugar is dissolved. (You should not be able to feel any sugar granules and the mixture should be very warm, not hot, to the touch.)
- Pour the egg white mixture into the mixer bowl and whisk on medium-high speed until the meringue is three times its volume, holds firm peaks and has cooled to about 95˚ F, about 4 minutes. Beat in the remaining 4 sticks butter slowly, piece by piece, until smooth and blended. Beat in the salt and vanilla.
- Remove the lemon curd from the refrigerator and fold it into the buttercream until well combined.
- Assemble the cake: Transfer 1 cake layer to a cake plate. Spread some of the buttercream on top using an offset spatula. Top with the other cake layer. Cover the top and sides of the cake with a thin layer of buttercream (this is the crumb coat); refrigerate 15 to 20 minutes. Cover with the remaining buttercream.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the cake: Butter and flour an 8-inch round cake pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, cake flour, minced rosemary, baking powder, and salt.
- Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, on low speed beat the butter and vanilla together until combined. Slowly add the powdered sugar. Once the sugar is incorporated increase the speed to high and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg yolks and eggs, 1 at a time. Reduce the speed to medium and add the sour cream. On low speed add the dry ingredients just until incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the surface with a spatula. Bake in the lower third of the oven until the cake is golden and pulls away from the sides of the pan, about 35 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let cool. Transfer the cake from the pan to a serving plate and dust with powdered sugar.
- For the Balsamic Syrup: Place the sugar, balsamic vinegar, and rosemary in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer until the sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Discard the rosemary sprig and let the syrup cool.
- To serve, place a slice of cake on a serving plate; spoon some syrup around the plate.

LEMON CORNMEAL CAKE WITH LEMON GLAZE
This cake is light, moist, flavorful, and not overly sweet. A little bit of work for a huge big pay off! I have served it with fresh strawberries and whipped cream and also with lemon curd and fresh raspberries, many toppings would be great. Can double the amount of glaze to cover the entire cake and allow some to dribble off the sides if you like glaze like we do. I have also added 1/3 cup small frozen blueberries to the dry mix and served it like a coffee cake instead of a dessert, minus the glaze. I think it is especially good with Meyer Lemons if you can find them. Adapted from Epicurious website. Hope you enjoy!
