Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup water
1 dash cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup oil
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon mahlepi
3 ounces masticha (or ouzo)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon bacon grease
1 cup dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Make kanelozoumo by bringing 1 cup of water and a dash of cinnamon to a boil. Allow to cool until it is warm, but not hot.
  • Place kanelozoumo, 1/2 cup flour, tsp or sugar, and yeast in a bowl and mix well. Allow yeast to proof for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  • Add brown sugar, mahlepi, masticha, vanilla, bacon grease, and mix well.
  • Add the flour slowly and knead until you have a soft, pliable dough.
  • Cover dough and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled in size - about an hour.
  • Punch dough down and lightly knead. Divide into 12 pieces.
  • Roll one piece of dough out into about a 3" x 12" rectangle. lightly sprinkle with chocolate chips, and roll the bottom up to form a long tube of dough filled with chocolate chips. Roll the tube into a spiral so it looks like a snail. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet, and repeat with remaining dough pieces.
  • Cover, and allow artoulakia to rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
  • Bake in a preheated 350*F oven for 15-20 minutes until golden.

WHITE AND DARK CHOCOLATE SPIRAL CHEESECAKE



White and Dark Chocolate Spiral Cheesecake image

This recipe is originally a Karin Goren masterpiece. Karin Goren is a local Israeli food personality, always smiling, always baking the most wonderful things. I watched her do this cheesecake on her show, Sweet Secrets, and was able to recreate this wonderful dish over the past weekend. Of course, not being able to leave well enough alone, I played around with her recipe, made a few changes, and here is my version

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 1h40m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

150 g cookie crumbs
100 g melted butter
1 kg soft white cheese (I used 9% fat, can use cream cheese)
3/4 cup sugar
6 eggs
300 g white chocolate chips
1/3 cup cream (unwhipped)
1 tablespoon cornflour
300 g dark chocolate chips
1/3 cup cream (unwhipped)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  • To make the base:.
  • Mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter and pat into the bottom of a 26 cm diameter springform pan.
  • Place in the oven to "set" for about 7 minutes.
  • Remove and set aside to cool.
  • To make the filling base:.
  • Beat all the ingredients together until well blended.
  • Pour half into a large, 4 cup measure cup, pour the other half into another 4 cup measuring cup. Alternatively, you can use jugs, pitchers, whatever is available, as long as it has a handle and a spout.
  • Melt the white chocolate chips together with the cream and stir to blend.
  • Add the cornflour and stir again.
  • Add this mixture into one of the cheese filling jugs. Stir to blend.
  • Melt the dark chocolate chips together with the cream and stir to blend.
  • Add this mixture into the other of the cheese filling jugs. Stir to blend.
  • Okay, here comes the fun part --
  • Carefully pour a portion of the white chocolate filling into the middle of the crust.
  • Now carefully (I mean CAREFULLY) pour a portion of the dark chocolate filling into the middle of the white filling.
  • Now CAREFULLY pour some of the white chocolate filling into the dark chocolate filling.
  • Now CAREFULLY pour some of the dark chocolate filling -- okay you get the picture?.
  • Keep this up until you have a series of concentric circles. Again, I cannot mention it enough, do this carefully so you don't mess up the circles.
  • Very carefully transfer this to the oven.
  • Bake at 200 degrees C for 10 minutes.
  • Turn the oven down to 120 degrees C and bake for a further 60 minutes.
  • Turn the oven off and let the cheesecake hang out in the cooling oven for another 2 hours.
  • Transfer to the refrigerator and let it hang out there for another 24 hours.
  • When you cut slices you will have the most gorgeous white and dark "zebra-ed" portions.
