Tartinebakeryschocolatepudding Recipes

Steps:

• Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, half-and-half, sugar, salt, cinnamon and vanilla. Add the croissant pieces and chocolate chunks and toss to coat. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Press the mixture down into the pan. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to overnight to allow the liquid to be absorbed.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake until golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve hot with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Place a fine-mesh sieve over a large heat-proof container.
• In a saucepan, combine the milk and cream; heat to just under a boil.
• Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, combine the cornstarch and sugar; sift in the cocoa powder; whisk until blended.
• In another bowl, whisk the eggs with the salt until blended, then add to the sugar mixture and whisk until well combined.
• Slowly add half of the hot milk mixture to the egg mixture while whisking constantly.
• Pour the combined egg mixture back into the pan with the rest of the milk mixture; cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture has visibly thickened and reads 208° on a thermometer, should take about 5-7 minutes, depending on how cold your eggs are.
• Immediately pour the contents of the pan through the sieve.
• Add the chocolate and let the heat of the milk/egg mixture melt it.
• When the chocolate has melted, blend with an immersion blender for a full 5 minutes until no lumps are visible.
• Stop the blender and scrape down the sides of the container with a rubber spatula.
• Immediately portion pudding into individual cups; let cool, and serve at room temperature, topped with whipped cream.
• The pudding will keep, well covered, in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Steps:

• For the pudding: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the dates and 3/4 cup water to a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat until boiling. Turn the heat down to low and simmer until the water has slightly reduced and the dates are beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat, then cover the saucepan and let sit for 10 minutes.
• Transfer the dates and liquid to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Process until smooth. Pour the date mixture into a bowl and cool to room temperature.
• Add the flour, baking powder and salt to a mixing bowl. Whisk to break up any lumps of flour. Set aside the dry ingredients. Add the brown sugar and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream the butter and sugar together, scraping down the bowl as needed, until fluffy and lighter in color, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the egg and beat until it is evenly combined. Add the orange zest and vanilla and mix until incorporated. Add half of the flour mixture to the butter mixture. Mix until incorporated, then add the date mixture. Mix until well combined, then add the remaining flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
• Spray 8 of the cups in a 12-cup muffin pan with the cooking spray. Fill the greased cups with 1/3 cup batter each. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• For the whiskey toffee sauce: Meanwhile, add the heavy whipping cream, brown sugar, butter, vanilla and salt to a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat. Stir the mixture continuously until the butter is melted. Bring the mixture to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the whiskey and continue to simmer until the sauce has slightly darkened in color, an additional 2 minutes. Turn the heat off and keep covered until ready to serve.
• Cool the puddings in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Once the puddings are cool enough to handle, remove them from the muffin pan using an offset spatula. Trim the domed tops from the puddings and set them on serving plates, cut-side down. Pour the warm whiskey toffee sauce over the puddings and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix milk, salt, and tapioca in 3 quart saucepan. Cook and stir until begins to thicken.
• Separate egg yolks from whites. Set whites aside.
• Mix egg yolks, sugar, and cocoa in separate saucepan. Heat and mix until creamy. Add cocoa mixture to tapioca mixture and heat until boils and thickens, stirring constantly. Add vanilla.
• Remove from heat. Beat egg whites until stiff then fold whites into tapioca mixture. Pudding may be eaten warm or refrigerated. My family prefers to eat it cold.

Steps:

• In a high-speed blender jug, add egg yolks, freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, and cayenne pepper.
• Melt butter in a microwave or on stove top, until completely melted and very hot to the touch.
• Using high speed, blend the yolk mixture for 3-4 seconds, then gradually in a thin stream pour the hot melted butter into the blender jug, while it is still running on high speed. Check for desired consistency and taste, adding more salt, cayenne pepper as needed. The sauce will begin to thicken as the hot liquid begins to emulsify with the yolk mixture.
• Start by making a base with the tater tots, then layer on the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled Italian sausage, crumbled bacon, sunny-side up or poached egg. Season with salt and pepper to your desired preference, then top with hollandaise sauce and a garnish of green onion.
• Serve while hot and enjoy.

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Bring cream, brown sugar and butter to boil in heavy medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Reduce heat and simmer sauce until reduced to 3 1/2 cups, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes. Set aside. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, before using.)
• Make cake:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 12-cup Bundt pan. Whisk flour and baking powder in medium bowl to blend; set aside. Combine 1 1/2 cups water, dates and baking soda in another heavy medium saucepan and bring to boil. Remove from heat; cool completely.
• Using electric mixer, beat butter and sugar in large bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs 1 at a time. Mix in vanilla and half of flour mixture, then date mixture. Blend in remaining flour mixture. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake until cake rises and is golden on top, about 45 minutes. Pour 3/4 cup caramel sauce over cake; continue baking until tester inserted near center of cake comes out with no crumbs (only caramel sauce) attached, about 15 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Invert cake onto platter. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cool completely. Wrap cake airtight and store at room temperature. Cover remaining caramel sauce and refrigerate. Rewarm sauce over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, before using.)
• Cut cake into slices; drizzle caramel sauce over each slice.
