CHOCOLATE PUDDING WITH ALMONDS



Chocolate Pudding with Almonds image

This dessert is very comforting and reminds me of my childhood. The surprising texture of the almonds on top does wonders for the texture and makes it more of a "complete" dessert to me.

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Categories     dessert

Time 12h35m

Yield 6 to 8 shallow coffee cups

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup warm water
1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup heavy cream
1 1/4 cups whole milk, divided
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon dark rum
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 cup slivered almonds
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa powder, salt and warm water. Whisk to blend and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate, 1 cup heavy cream and 1 cup of the milk. Stir to blend and bring the mixture back to a gentle simmer on low heat.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and the remaining 1/4 cup of milk until the mixture is smooth. Stir the cornstarch into the simmering chocolate mixture and continue cooking it over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. From time to time, use a whisk to blend the pudding and assure that it is not sticking to the bottom or sides and scorching as it cooks. Remove from the heat. Taste and add the vanilla and rum. Pour the pudding into a large bowl (or, if preferred, individual coffee cups) and cover tightly with plastic wrap so a skin doesn't form on top of the pudding. The plastic wrap should directly touch the top of the pudding in the bowl or cups. Refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.
  • In a medium bowl whisk the cream until thick. Alternatively, use the electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk in the sugar and vanilla until blended. Taste for sweetness and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • When ready to serve, heat the oil in a medium skillet over low heat. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, add the almonds. Cook them, stirring, from time to time, until they turn golden brown, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them from the skillet to a paper towel or a kitchen towel to drain off excess oil. Season with salt, to taste.
  • Remove the pudding from the refrigerator, discard the plastic wrap and sprinkle with the almonds. Top with dollops of the whipped cream or serve the cream on the side. Serve immediately.

WARM CHOCOLATE PUDDING ENCHILADAS WITH STRAWBERRY ALMOND SALSA



Warm Chocolate Pudding Enchiladas With Strawberry Almond Salsa image

Provided by Bryan Miller

Categories     quick, dessert

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 pound semi-sweet chocolate
1 ounce (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, soft
3 1/2 cups milk
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup cocoa
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
3 egg yolks
1/4 cup Kahlua
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 cups milk
2 eggs
Butter for cookie sheet
Strawberry almond salsa (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Melt chocolate and butter over simmering water in top of a double boiler.
  • Pour 1/2 cup of the milk into a medium-size bowl. Whisk in the cornstarch, cocoa and 1/4 cup of the sugar.
  • In a medium-size saucepan over medium heat, scald remaining 3 cups of milk and 1/2 cup of sugar by heating to just under a boil, when it begins to foam. Remove from heat, and whisk hot liquid into the cornstarch mixture. Return to heat and, while constantly scraping bottom of pan with a whisk, cook until tiny bubbles boil up for 10 seconds, no more.
  • Put eggs and egg yolks in a bowl. Whisking vigorously, slowly drizzle in one cup of hot liquid. Pour everything back into saucepan. Simmer until tiny bubbles boil up again, constantly scraping bottom of pan with a whisk. Stir in Kahlua. Strain pudding, and fold in the melted chocolate and butter. Cover with wax paper to prevent a skin from forming. Set aside for one hour. Refrigerate until chilled.
  • To make enchiladas, first make the crepes. Put flour, cocoa, sugar, milk and eggs in the bowl of a food processor, or blender and run at high speed for one minute. Scrape down the sides, and run for another 10 seconds. Let batter rest in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Place a nonstick saute pan or crepe pan over medium-high heat for one minute. Remove it from heat and, holding it with one hand, pour 1/4 cup of the batter into it. Quickly tilt it so a thin film of batter coats pan's bottom. Return pan to heat, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the top looks set but not dry and you can lift crepe with a rubber spatula and then your fingers. (Cover your free hand with a paper towel to catch finished crepe.)
  • Place crepes cooked-side-up on a sheet of waxed paper, and repeat with rest of batter. You should have 8 to 10.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly butter a cookie sheet.
  • Place a crepe, cooked side up, on a dry work surface. Drop about 1/4 cup of pudding in the center. Spread it from side to side, leaving one-inch borders. Fold bottom edge over the center of the pudding. Next, fold the right side of the crepe back to the middle; repeat with the left side. Fold the last section toward the middle to make the enchilada. Repeat with remaining crepes. These may be prepared up to a day in advance.
  • Place each enchilada, seam side down, on buttered pan. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes to warm them. Serve with strawberry almond salsa.

STRAWBERRY ENCHILADAS



Strawberry Enchiladas image

I found this recipe recently and thought it was delicious and unusual. Try this at your next Mexican meal, probably not authentic Mexican food, but a real conversation piece anyways.

Provided by MarieRynr

Categories     Dessert

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 flour tortillas or 6 sweet milk tortillas
powdered sugar
8 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup powdered sugar
strawberry sauce
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/2-3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup pureed fresh strawberries
1 (12 ounce) package frozen unsweetened raspberries, thawed
2 cups sliced strawberries

Steps:

  • To prepare the filling: Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla and powdered sugar in the bowl of a mixer; beat until fluffy. Set aside.
  • To prepare the sauce: Combine the butter, orange juice, sugar, salt and pureed strawberries in a 3-quart saucepan.
  • Put the raspberries in mesh sieve and push them through with a wooden spoon.
  • Be sure to scape off the puree clinging to bottom of the sieve. Add the raspberry puree to the mixture in the saucepan. Simmer for 8 minutes, until thickened to a sauce consistency. Remove from heat. Stir in the sliced strawberries.
  • To assemble: Butter a 10 x 13-inch baking dish. Place about 2 rounded tablespoons of the filling down the center of each tortilla. Fold the sides over the filling. Place seam-side down in the baking dish. Assemble no more than 1 hour in advance so the tortillas don't become soggy.
  • Bake the enchiladas in a preheated 350 degrees oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the filling is puffed.
  • To serve: Place each enchilada on a dessert plate, pour a generous 1/4 cup of the sauce over each, then dust with powdered sugar.

Strawberry Tart With Almond Butter Crust image

Provided by Bryan Miller

Categories     dessert

Time 2h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup whole shelled almonds
1/4 teaspoon water
1 1/2 sticks sweet butter, cut in 8 cubes
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
Pinch of salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon cold water
1/2 pound mild white cream-style cheese or firm yogurt (an Italian cheese called Mony Bianco is superb)
2 tablespoons jam or preserves (apricot, strawberry, peach)
1/2 teaspoon brandy or Cognac (optional)

Steps:

  • Put almonds and water in processor or blender and reduce to coarse powder. Add butter and blend well, scraping down sides of bowl several times. Press butter through sieve and chill until ready to use.
  • Put flour, salt, sugar and butter in bowl of food processor. Turn machine on and off briefly 4 or 5 times. Butter should be in pieces the size of lima beans. Then process for about 10 seconds while adding water quickly. Stop before ball forms. If you do not have food processor, this can be done by hand. Do not knead too much or crust will become tough.
  • Remove mixture from work bowl and form ball. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • On lightly dusted surface, roll out pastry ball to form crust slightly larger than tart pan (most pans are 10 to 12 inches in diameter). If you have too much dough, roll excess into ball, wrap and freeze.
  • Butter tart pan well and gently lay in crust, pinching sides to fit pan. Place aluminum foil over crust and lay pinto beans or any weight over it and bake for 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 10 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Set aside to cool.
  • When crust is cool spread cheese mixture over bottom, then layer of sliced strawberries. Melt jam with Cognac in saucepan and brush it over to glaze the fruit. Chill before serving.

MARTHA'S WARM CHOCOLATE PUDDING CAKES



Martha's Warm Chocolate Pudding Cakes image

There's something extra-special about an individually sized dessert -- especially when it's a molten chocolate cake served warm out of the oven. You can prepare these rich chocolate pudding cakes up to a day ahead and refrigerate them, then just pop them in the oven when you sit down to dinner. They'll be done by the time you're ready for dessert. And they reheat easily, so you can have two one night and two the next. This recipe appears in our cookbook "Martha Stewart's Newlywed Kitchen" (Clarkson Potter).

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs, separated
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Ice cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place four 6- to 8-ounce ovenproof bowls on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Place chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over (not in) a saucepan of gently simmering water. Stir occasionally just until melted, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat; mix in 2 tablespoons sugar, then egg yolks and vanilla.
  • In a medium bowl, with an electric mixer, beat egg whites and salt until soft peaks form. With mixer running, gradually add remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; beat until mixture is stiff and glossy.
  • Using a flexible spatula, fold about a third of egg-white mixture into chocolate mixture; gently fold in remaining egg-white mixture just until combined. Divide among bowls. (Puddings can be prepared in advance up to this point; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 1 day.)
  • Bake until tops are puffed and cracked but insides are still quite soft (a toothpick inserted in center will come out gooey), 20 to 25 minutes (or 25 to 30 minutes if refrigerated). Serve warm or at room temperature (puddings will sink as they cool), topped with ice cream, if desired.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality chocolate and fresh strawberries.
  • If you don't have a double boiler, you can melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted.
  • Be sure to let the enchiladas cool for a few minutes before serving, so that the chocolate can set.
  • Garnish the enchiladas with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh strawberries before serving.
