BRAZO GITANO DE CALABAZA

Steps:

• Precalienta el horno a 375°F. Engrasa un molde para hornear de 15x10x1 pulgadas. Fórralo con papel encerado; engrasa y enharina el papel. Espolvorea un paño de cocina limpio con 1/4 taza del azúcar en polvo.
• Mezcla la harina, la especia, el polvo para hornear y la sal; ponlos a un lado. Revuelve los huevos y el azúcar granulada en un tazón grande con una batidora eléctrica a velocidad alta hasta que espese. Agrega la calabaza; mezcla todo bien. Agrega poco a poco la mezcla de harina, mezclándola bien antes de añadir más. Espárcela de forma pareja dentro del molde que preparaste; espolvoréala con las nueces de Castilla.
• Hornea la masa por 15 minutos o hasta que la superficie del pastel vuelva a su posición inicial después de presionarla con los dedos. Voltea de inmediato el pastel sobre el paño que preparaste; quita el molde. Desprende el papel con cuidado. Enrolla el pastel y el paño empezando por uno de sus extremos más cortos. Colócalos sobre una rejilla metálica; déjalos enfriar por completo.
• Mezcla bien el queso crema y 1/2 taza de azúcar en polvo en un tazón mediano con una batidora eléctrica a velocidad media. Agrega la cobertura; mezcla todo bien. Desenrolla con cuidado el pastel; quítale el paño. Esparce la mezcla de queso crema sobre el pastel. Reenróllalo; envuélvelo en envoltorio plástico. Refrigéralo por lo menos 1 hora o hasta la hora de servir. Espolvoréalo con las 2 cucharadas restantes de azúcar en polvo justo antes de servir. Guarda el postre que sobre en el refrigerador.

BRAZO GITANO DE GUAYABA (JELLY ROLL WITH GUAVA)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour a 15x10x1-inch jelly roll pan.
• Break eggs into a small mixing bowl; beat with an electric mixer until thick and lemon-colored. Beat in sugar gradually. Add water, lime zest, and vanilla extract and blend well. Beat in flour gradually until smooth. Pour into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and loosen the edges with a sharp knife. Turn out immediately onto a tea towel sprinkled with powdered sugar.
• Cut guava paste into chunks and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until spreadable. Be careful, it will get hot because of the high sugar content.
• Trim any stiff edges off of the cake and spread guava over. Roll up carefully in jelly roll fashion from the narrow end, using the towel to ease the cake over. Let cool in the towel on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
• Remove the towel carefully and sprinkle additional powdered sugar over the top if desired. Slice to serve.

BRAZO DE GITANO (CREAM ROLL)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 18x12x1-inch aluminum pan. Line with parchment paper and grease paper generously.
• Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Combine water, vanilla extract, and lime juice in a separate bowl. Set aside.
• Beat eggs in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer on high speed for 1 minute. Reduce speed to medium and add white sugar gradually. Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture alternately with water mixture, mixing until well combined. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
• While cake is baking, dissolve cornstarch in 1 cup milk in a saucepan over medium heat until well blended. Add egg yolks and mix well. Pour in remaining milk, sugar, salt, and lime zest. Mix over medium heat using a wooden spoon until boiling; remove from heat. Keep filling warm if cake is still baking.
• Place a large, damp cloth on a table and sprinkle generously with sifted confectioners' sugar about 5 minutes before cake has finished baking.
• Remove cake from the oven. Release edges of cake using a knife. Turn cake over onto the sugar-coated cloth; remove parchment paper from cake and trim edges. Pour cream filling over cake immediately, spreading almost to the edges. Roll cake up from the bottom.
• Cut roll in the middle to divide into two 9-inch rolls. Transfer to 2 flat platters using 2 wide spatulas. Sprinkle rolls with additional confectioners' sugar just prior to serving.
