Categories     dessert

Time 13h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups gingersnap crumbs
6 tablespoons melted butter, plus extra butter for pan
1/4 cup sugar
Pinch salt
2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 (12-ounce) log goat cheese
12 ounces creme fraiche or sour cream
4 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Vanilla Pineapple Compote, recipe follows
Special equipment: 9-inch springform pan
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups water
1 cup rum
2 vanilla beans, split, seeds scraped and reserved
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 ripe pineapple, top, skin and core removed, cut into bite-size wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • To make the crust:
  • Stir all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. Butter a 9-inch springform pan. Press the crumb mixture onto the bottom and about halfway up the sides of the pan.
  • To make the filling:
  • Beat the cream and goat cheeses in the bowl of an electric stand mixer with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add the creme fraiche and beat to combine. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each egg is added, until thoroughly combined. Beat in the sugar and vanilla until just combined.
  • Pour the filling into the prepared crust. Put on a baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 55 to 60 minutes. Rotate the baking sheet halfway through the cooking process. If the cheesecake starts to color, tent the springform pan with aluminum foil.
  • Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely before serving, as it continues to set as it cools. It is best to refrigerate overnight before serving. Cut the cake into wedges and serve with Vanilla Pineapple Compote.
  • Say cheesecake!
  • Combine the brown sugar, water, rum, and vanilla beans in a saucepan over medium heat. Squeeze the lemon juice into the pan and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, add the pineapple and stir until well mixed. Simmer until the liquid has reduced to a syrupy consistency and the pineapple is soft.
  • Let cool and serve as an accoutrement to yummy desserts like goat cheese cheesecake!

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Categories     dessert

Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup tequila reposado
16 fresh pineapple rings (1/3 inch thick)
1 cup heavy cream
3 to 4 tablespoons butter, softened
8 slices store-bought or homemade pound cake (3/4 inch thick)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint plus 8 sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat a gas grill to medium-high heat, or prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill.
  • In a small saucepan, whisk together the brown sugar, tequila and 1/4 cup water. Set the pan on the grill (or a side burner on medium-high heat) and cook, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture comes to a boil. Remove from the heat and let stand until cool.
  • Put the pineapple slices in a baking dish and pour the cooled syrup over them, tossing gently to coat. Let stand at least 5 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
  • Whip the heavy cream in a bowl to the soft-peak stage. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Spread the butter on both sides of each pound cake slice and grill, turning once, until light golden, about 1 minute per side. Drain the pineapple, reserving the syrup, and grill, turning once, until grill marks appear, about 1 minute per side.
  • To assemble, place each pound cake slice on a dessert plate and top with 2 pineapple rings. Drizzle a little of the tequila syrup over each plate, top with a dollop of whipped cream and garnish with a mint sprig and some chopped mint.

Pineapple-Tequila Goat-Cheese Cake image

Here is a goat-cheese cake with a layer of pineapple confit that has been steeped in bracing tequila. It's a cake that does well when made in advance and chilled for 24 hours before serving. To sip alongside? An añejo tequila, of course.

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large pineapple, peeled, cored and chopped

1 1/4 cups agave syrup
1 1/4 pounds soft plain goat cheese, like Montrachet

GRILLED POUND CAKE WITH PINEAPPLE "SALSA" AND TEQUILA WHIPPED CREAM



Grilled Pound Cake with Pineapple

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup heavy (whipping) cream
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon tequila (preferably gold)
8 slices pound cake (each 1/2 inch thick)
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Pineapple "Salsa"
4 fresh mint sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Place the cream in a chilled mixer bowl or in a large metal bowl. Beat with a mixer until soft peaks form, starting on the slow speed and gradually increasing the speed to high. The total beating time will be 6 to 8 minutes. When soft peaks have formed, add the confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, and tequila. Continue beating the cream until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes longer. Don't overbeat the cream or it will start to turn to butter. The tequila whipped cream can be made several hours ahead. Refrigerate it, covered, until ready to serve.
  • 2. Lightly brush each slice of pound cake with butter on both sides. Cook the pound cake, following the instructions below for any of the grills, until lightly toasted. If desired, rotate each slice a quarter turn after 1 minute to create a handsome crosshatch of grill marks. You may need to cook the pound cake slices in more than one batch.
  • 3. Place the pound cake slices on plates. Top each serving with a spoonful of Pineapple "Salsa" and a dollop of tequila whipped cream, garnish with a sprig of mint, and serve at once.
  • CONTACT GRILL:
  • Preheat the grill; if your contact grill has a temperature control, preheat the grill to high. Place the drip pan under the front of the grill. When ready to cook, lightly oil the grill surface. Place the slices of pound cake on the hot grill, then close the lid. The pound cake will be done after cooking 2 to 4 minutes.
  • GRILL PAN:
  • Place the grill pan on the stove and preheat it to medium-high over medium heat. When the grill pan is hot a drop of water will skitter in the pan. When ready to cook, lightly oil the ridges of the grill pan. Place the slices of pound cake in the hot grill pan. They will be done after cooking 2 to 4 minutes per side.
  • BUILT-IN GRILL:
  • Preheat the grill to high, then, if it does not have a nonstick surface, brush and oil the grill grate. Place the pound cake slices on the hot grate. They will be done after cooking 2 to 4 minutes per side.
  • FREESTANDING GRILL:
  • Preheat the grill to high; there's no need to oil the grate. Place the pound cake slices on the hot grill. They will be done after cooking 3 to 5 minutes per side.
  • FIREPLACE GRILL:
  • Rake red hot embers under the gridiron and preheat it for 3 to 5 minutes; you want a hot, 2 to 3 Mississippi fire. When ready to cook, brush and oil the gridiron. Place the pound cake slices on the hot grate. They will be done after cooking 2 to 4 minutes per side.

Yield Makes 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup tequila
3/4 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 large pineapple, peeled, cored, cut into 2x1-inch pieces
6 bamboo skewers, soaked in water 30 minutes, drained

Steps:

  • Stir first 4 ingredients in small bowl until sugar dissolves. Thread pineapple pieces onto 6 skewers, dividing equally. (Tequila mixture and pineapple skewers can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover separately and chill.)
  • Prepare barbecue (medium heat). Grill pineapple until brown, basting with tequila mixture and turning occasionally, about 10 minutes total. Remove pineapple from skewers; serve hot or warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor. If using canned pineapple, be sure to drain it well.
  • Use a good quality tequila. A reposado or añejo tequila will add a nice depth of flavor to the cake.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it.
  • For a smoother frosting, use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat the cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a 9-inch round cake pan. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan before adding the batter.

Conclusion:

This Pineapple Tequila Goat Cheese Cake is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of pineapple, tequila, and goat cheese creates a flavor that is both sweet and savory. The cake is also very moist and has a creamy texture. If you are looking for a new and exciting dessert to try, this Pineapple Tequila Goat Cheese Cake is definitely worth a try.
