Time 1h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (10 ounce) packages frozen sliced peaches, thawed
2 tablespoons brown sugar
¼ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
¼ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup lemon juice
1 cup boiling water
2 egg yolks
2 tablespoons butter
1 (10.75 ounce) loaf prepared pound cake, cubed
1 cup sweetened whipped cream

Steps:

  • Place peach slices into a large bowl, and sprinkle with brown sugar. Stir to coat, and set aside.
  • In a medium metal bowl, stir together the white sugar, flour, lemon zest and salt. Whisk in the lemon juice until the mixture is smooth. Gradually whisk in the boiling water.
  • In a smaller bowl, whisk the yolks together. Gradually whisk in about 1/2 cup of the hot lemon mixture. Then whisk the yolk mixture back into the larger bowl. Set the bowl over a pan of simmering water. Cook, stirring frequently until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Set aside.
  • In each parfait glass, make a layer of pound cake cubes, about 1/2 cup. Top with about 2 tablespoons of lemon sauce, then 1/4 cup of peach slices. Repeat the layers one more time. Top with 1 tablespoon of the lemon sauce. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to be sure it is thoroughly chilled. Top each parfait with a dollop of whipped cream before serving.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb firm-ripe peaches
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons brandy
1/2 cup sugar
1 pt vanilla ice cream, softened
Special Equipment
4 (4-oz) parfait or other tall narrow glasses

Steps:

  • Cut a shallow X in bottom of each peach with a sharp paring knife and blanch in a 3-quart saucepan of boiling water 10 seconds. Transfer peaches with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice and cold water and let stand until cool enough to handle. Peel peaches, then halve lengthwise and pit. Cut peaches into 1-inch pieces, then toss with lemon juice and 2 tablespoons brandy in a bowl.
  • Cook sugar in a dry 9- to 10-inch heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring slowly with a fork (to help sugar melt evenly), until melted and pale golden. Cook caramel, without stirring, swirling skillet, until deep golden. Carefully add peach mixture (caramel will harden and steam vigorously) and cook, stirring frequently, until caramel is dissolved and peaches are tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally, then stir in remaining tablespoon brandy.
  • Spoon 2 tablespoons peach mixture into each glass, then top with a small scoop of ice cream. Repeat with another layer of peaches and ice cream and spoon remaining peaches on top. Serve immediately.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cake flour
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 teaspoon salt
1/3 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 teaspoon cinnamon
2/3 cup butter
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice, from about 4 lemons
2/3 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1 cup butter
1/3 cup egg whites, from about 3 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • For the graham cracker crust: Weigh and mix your dry ingredients together in a bowl. In a stand mixer, cream the butter with both sugars and honey until thoroughly combined. Add to the butter/sugar mixture until just combined. Roll between two pieces of parchment paper to a ¼-inch thickness. Freeze 20 minutes. Note: Please refer to the written recipe for measurements as they've been adjusted from the video.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Remove top sheet of parchment and bake 30 minutes until brown. When cool, break up pieces and pulse in a food processor until it resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside at room temperature.
  • For the lemon curd: In a saucepan whisk eggs, sugar and lemon juice and slowly bring to a boil, stirring the whole time (to prevent the eggs from cooking). Place through a strainer with a ladle or a China cap into a blender and with the motor on, add butter, a little at a time until emulsified. Set aside.
  • For the Swiss meringue: Place egg whites and sugar in a bowl set over simmering water and whisk until sugar is dissolved. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer and whip until soft peaks form. Set aside. Note: Please refer to the written recipe for measurements as they've been adjusted from the video. To assemble: Place graham cracker crumbs in the bottom of a serving glass and layer lemon curd followed by more graham cracker crumbs 3 times. Top with a dollop of meringue. Run a kitchen torch across the top for a toasty finish.
