Pumpkin Roulade With Mascarpone And White Chocolate Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a rimmed baking sheet and line with parchment, leaving a slight overhang on short ends. Butter parchment and dust with flour.
• Whisk flour, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl until thoroughly combined. Set aside. Lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and dust with 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream eggs and sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy and tripled in volume, about 10 minutes. Reduce speed to low and add pumpkin puree. Mix until combined, about 2 minutes. Turn mixer off and sift half of flour mixture over the top. Gently fold into the batter than repeat with remaining dry mixture. Spread evenly onto prepared baking sheet with an offset spatula and bake until the cake springs back in the center and begins to pull away from edges, about 12 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes then invert onto sugar-dusted towel. Fold the sides of the towel over the cake and gently roll the cake lengthwise. Let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, bring cream just to a simmer. Pour over white chocolate set in a small bowl, making sure chocolate is fully covered. Let sit 5 minutes. Stir until smooth. In a medium bowl stir mascarpone with a rubber spatula until smooth. Add half the ganache and stir to combine. Repeat with remaining half, then whisk and continue to whip until just beginning to hold soft peaks and the mixture is spreadable. Stir in orange zest. Unroll pumpkin cake and evenly spread 2 cups of filling over the top, leaving a 1/2-inch border on long sides. Gently roll again and place in refrigerator to chill, 15 to 20 minutes. Dust with confectioners' sugar, slice and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 13 by 18 by 1-inch sheet pan. Line the pan with parchment paper and grease and flour the paper.
• In a small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt and stir to combine. Place the eggs and granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed for 3 minutes, until light yellow and thickened. With the mixer on low, add the pumpkin, then slowly add the flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated. Finish mixing the batter by hand with a rubber spatula. Pour into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake the cake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the top springs back when gently touched.
• While the cake is baking, lay out a clean, thin cotton dish towel on a flat surface and sift the entire 1/4 cup of confectioners' sugar evenly over it. (This will prevent the cake from sticking to the towel.) As soon as you remove the cake from the oven, loosen it around the edges and invert it squarely onto the prepared towel. Peel away the parchment paper. With a light touch, roll the warm cake and the towel together (don't press!) starting at the short end of the cake. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Meanwhile, make the filling. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the mascarpone, confectioners' sugar, and cream together for about a minute, until light and fluffy. Stir in the crystallized ginger, and salt.
• To assemble, carefully unroll the cake onto a board with the towel underneath. Spread the cake evenly with the filling. Reroll the cake in a spiral using the towel as a guide. Remove the towel and trim the ends to make a neat edge. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve sliced.

Steps:

• Place rack in center of oven, and heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter an 11-by-17-inch jelly-roll pan or a 12-by-17 1/2-inch sheet pan, and line with parchment paper.
• In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup cream to a simmer.
• Add chocolate, reduce heat, and whisk until chocolate is melted.
• As soon as mixture is a uniform dark color, remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.
• Whip egg whites and 2 tablespoons sugar to stiff, glossy peaks, about 1 1/2 minutes.
• Whisk one-quarter of the egg-white mixture into the chocolate mixture.
• Gently fold chocolate mixture back into the original egg-white mixture, and mix until smooth and well combined.
• Pour batter into the prepared pan, and spread it in an even layer with a rubber spatula.
• Bake until cake is set and puffy, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Transfer to a wire rack, and cool to room temperature.
• Lift parchment paper to remove cake from pan, and set it on work surface with long side facing edge of table.
• Using a fine-mesh sieve, lightly dust cake with cocoa powder.
• For the crème chantilly, whip the remaining 1 cup cream with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, the vanilla, and cognac.
• Spread evenly over entire surface of cake.
• Roll the cake lengthwise, starting at a point 2 to 3 inches over the crème chantilly.
• Roll cake another few inches, pressing against parchment paper to make a tight spiral.
• Gently peel parchment paper off as cake layer rolls away.
• Complete the roll, stopping at the far edge of the parchment paper.
• Tuck the loose parchment paper around and underneath the cylinder so it is well wrapped and can be moved easily.
• Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
• When ready to serve, transfer roulade to serving platter.
• Remove parchment paper, gently rolling cake into center of platter, with seam on bottom.
• (If roll has slumped or twisted, lay a piece of plastic over top and sides, and reshape with hands.) With a sharp knife, trim both ends of roll crosswise or on a diagonal.
• Dust top with confectioners’ sugar and cocoa powder, and garnish with seasonal fruit.
• To serve, cut the roll into 1-inch-thick slices, and lay flat on dessert plates; top with additional crème chantilly if desired.

Steps:

• CAKE:.
• Preheat oven to 350º F/180ºC.
• Line a 15 x 10-inch jelly roll pan (swiss roll tin) with parchment paper.
• Using an electric mixer, whisk yolks and sugar until thick and pale.
• Sift cocoa and starch over then fold in gently.
• Add chocolate and 2 tablespoons water and stir gently to combine.
• Using an electric mixer, whisk egg whites in a clean bowl until soft peaks form, then fold into chocolate mixture.
• Spoon mixture into prepared pan and smooth top.
• Bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly pressed.
• Dust top of cake heavily with cocoa then cover with a piece of parchment paper.
• Invert cake, with paper, on to a work surface, then gently peel away the parchment paper.
• Working quickly while cake is still hot, gently roll up from long side, using paper as a guide.
• Let cool completely before filling.
• MASCARPONE FILLING:.
• Combine marmalade, liqueur and 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan and stir over low-medium heat until combined and marmalade has melted.
• Combine with mascarpone in a bowl and whisk until thick.

• *The cream filling may be made without the marmalade and pistachio's. If desired, you may make a cream filling with just the mascarpone cheese and orange liqueur.
• **Tips:
• Grease the jelly roll pan before lining it. This will make the paper sit flat and adhere to the corners.
• To fold egg whites into a batter, always use a large metal spoon and a light hand to preserve the air. Start by stirring 1/4 of the egg whites into the batter to lighten it, then gently fold in remaining egg white.
• Potato flour (potato starch) is available at most supermarkets in the baking or flour section.
• For the best flavor, use a dark chocolate with at least 60 % cocoa solids.
