Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

For the crust:
Vegetable oil cooking spray
8 plain or almond biscotti, broken into 1-inch pieces (5 to 6 ounces)
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces, chilled
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 packed cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup raspberry jam or preserves, such as Bonne Maman
For the filling:
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips or 1 - 1 oz pouch pre-melted chocolate
1 cup mascarpone, at room temperature (8 ounces)
1 cup sour cream, at room temperature (8 ounces)
5 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Special equipment: One 7-by-10 3/4-inch nonstick metal baking pan

Steps:

  • For the crust: Place an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F.
  • Spray the pan with vegetable oil cooking spray. Lay a 6-by-18-inch piece of parchment paper in the pan, allowing the excess paper to overhang the sides. Spray the parchment paper lightly with vegetable oil cooking spray.
  • Blend the biscotti, butter, cocoa powder and brown sugar in a food processor until the mixture forms moist crumbs. Firmly press the crumbs onto the bottom of the pan. Bake for 15 minutes. Cool the crust completely, about 25 minutes.
  • Spread the jam in an even layer over the crust using a spatula.
  • For the filling: Place the chocolate in a small bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water. Stir occasionally until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Or, if using the pre-melted chocolate in the pouch, just stick the pouch in some hot water for a minute to soften.
  • Beat the cheese, sour cream, eggs, granulated sugar and vanilla until smooth, using a whisk, in a medium bowl. Pour the batter over the cooled crust. Randomly spoon the melted chocolate over the batter. Swirl the chocolate into the batter, using the tip of a knife. Bake until light golden and the center of the filling jiggles slightly when the pan is gently shaken, about 40 minutes. Transfer the baking dish to a wire rack and cool for 1 hour. Cover the pan with plastic and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight until firm.
  • Run a thin spatula around the sedges of the pan to loosen the filling. Cut the bars into 1 1/2-by-2-inch bars using a damp knife. Serve at room temperature.

CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY LAYER BARS



Chocolate Raspberry Layer Bars image

With the Christmas holidays drawing near, I thought these would be a great addition to cookie & sweet trays! They are quite an attractive looking bar and they look nice cut into triangles. You can even substitute your favourite jam, such as apricot, peach & strawberry, but I think the raspberry (or the strawberry), red in colour for Christmas would be nicest! Found this recipe in a booklet of baking recipes that I picked up at the grocery store put out by Robin Hood flour. Add 1 1/2 hrs. to the cook time listed for chilling. These are supposed to freeze well for those of you who want to get a head start on your holiday baking! Hope you enjoy!

### Key Baking and Assembly Techniques: - **Crust:** - Use a combination of graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter to create the crust. - Press the mixture into a 9-inch springform pan and bake it for 7 minutes at 350°F (175°C) before chilling for at least 30 minutes. - **Ganache:** - Use semisweet or dark chocolate and heavy cream to make the ganache. - Bring the cream to a simmer, pour it over the chocolate, and let it sit for 5 minutes before stirring until smooth. - **Whipped Mascarpone:** - Use cold mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, and powdered sugar to make the whipped mascarpone. - Whip the mascarpone and cream until soft peaks form, then add the powdered sugar and continue whipping until firm peaks form. - **Assembly:** - Layer the chilled crust, ganache, and whipped mascarpone in that order. - Chill the cake for at least 4 hours or preferably, cover and refrigerate it for up to 3 days. - Decorate the cake with fresh or freeze-dried raspberries before serving. ### Baking and Assembly Suggestions: - For a more pronounced raspberry tang, use a combination of fresh and freeze-dried raspberries in the ganache and whipped mascarpone. - Decorate the cake with fresh flowers, chocolate shavings, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for an extra special touch. - If serving the cake immediately, let it thaw in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before decorating and serving. - For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free graham cracker crust or a homemade crust made from almond or oat meal. ### General Baking and Assembly Precautions: - Make sure to chill the crust before pouring the ganache to prevent it from becoming soggy. - Do not overwhip the whipped mascarpone, as it may become grainy. - If the ganache is too thick, add a little bit of warm cream to thin it out. - If the whipped mascarpone is too thin, add more powdered sugar, but little by little to avoid over-stiffening. - Store the cake in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months. - Bring the cake to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
