CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY MOUSSE TRUFFLE CAKE, RASPBERRY-CASSIS SAUCE
This recipe is the winner, hands down! Just in case you want to know what it is that I'm saying -- this is the dessert that my friend Judy chose for her very elegant dinner party. This is not easy at all! It's very involved but it is so worth it! I can't begin to tell you; takes 3 hours plus baking, cooling and chilling times. Allow the truffle cake to chill overnight before serving. I am posting this for safe keeping. Can be made up to four days ahead of time.

Steps:
- 1. For the Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2. Line the bottom of a 9" round cake pan with 2" high sides with parchment paper. Butter the bottom and sides of the pan, as well as the parchment paper. You could also use a 9" spring form pan. If you use a spring form pan, wrap the outside of the pan with foil.
- 3. Place all the chocolate in a large bowl. Bring the butter, coffee, water and brown sugar to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Pour over the chocolate and stir until all is melted. Allow to cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs until all is combined.
- 4. Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared pan. Place the cake pan in a large roasting pan in the oven. Pour hot water into the roasting pan until it comes halfway up the sides of the cake pan. A water bath will help the cake cook more evenly.
- 5. Bake until the center of the cake is barely set - about 50 minutes. Check at 45 minutes as oven temperatures vary. Carefully remove the pan from the hot water bath. Allow to cool for about 30 minutes, then chill the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- 6. To remove the cake from the pan when time to serve: Cut around pan sides to loosen. If you used a regular cake pan, hold the pan bottom in hot water for about 15 seconds to loosen. Place platter over the pan. Hold pan and platter together, then turn over. Lift off the cake pan and remove the parchment. If you used a spring form pan, carefully remove sides of the pan. Turn onto a platter, then gently loosen from the base of the spring form pan with a long metal spatula or thin bladed knife, if needed. Remove the parchment paper.
- 7. To serve,slice into 12-16 portions. Drizzle with raspberry sauce. Top with whipped cream or place it to the side of the cake. Garnish with a few fresh raspberries and/or a fresh mint leaf, if desired.
- 8. For the Raspberry Sauce: Place the raspberries in a blender, and blend. Strain the puree into a bowl through a wire mesh strainer. Discard the seeds.
- 9. Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then turn the heat down and simmer for 3 minutes to make a simple syrup.
- 10. Add the simple syrup to the raspberries, along with the Chambord, if desired. The sauce can be made ahead, and kept in the refrigerator, or frozen if you are making it more than a couple days in advance.
- 11. To Freeze for Future Use: Wrap the whole cake in plastic wrap and aluminum foil. Or wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag. To serve individual slices, unwrap first, then thaw.
BUTTER POACHED LOBSTER, MUSCADE DE PROVENCE RAVIOLI, TRUFFLE BUTTER SAUCE
Steps:
- To make the lobster: Have ready a large bowl filled with ice. Fill a very large wide-bottomed pot with water and add the vinegar, carrots, onion, celery, anise seed, fennel seed, coriander seed, bay leaf, and cayenne. Bring to a boil, submerge the lobsters (cook one at a time if they don't all fit) in the pot and cook for 5 minutes. Remove the lobsters and immediately place in the ice bath to stop further cooking.
- Lay a lobster on a towel; pull the legs off and snap off the knuckles. Remove the thin part of the claws and the bone inside the claw meat by twisting and pulling it out. Lay the claw flat on a towel, cover, and gently pound with a wide mallet or heel of a knife. Use your fingers to gently push the meat through the large opening at the other end. Lay the tail meat flat and use shears to cut in half lengthwise through the middle. Remove the vein running through the inside of the tail but leave the meat inside the tail.
- For the knuckles, cut off the top joint of each knuckle and use scissors to cut away the shell along the smooth outside edge of the knuckle. Use your finger to open up the shell and remove the meat. Reserve the meat on a paper towel, cover, and refrigerate.
- For the body, pull back and discard the sack behind the head. Save the dark green roe for a sauce and the body and legs for a stock, if you want. Discard the tomalley and lungs.
- To make the beurre fondue: Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the anise seed, fennel seed, star anise, cayenne, and coriander, and saute for a few more minutes. Add the wine; bring to a boil for 2 minutes. Add the butter pieces gradually and whisk consistently to obtain and emulsify the beurre fondue. Strain out the shallots. Add the tarragon. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- To make the muscade de Provence ravioli: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Split the pumpkin and remove the seeds. Set the pieces on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Dab pieces of the butter on the individual pieces of pumpkin. Drizzle the honey over the pieces, season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, and set the cinnamon stick on one of the pumpkin halves. Pour the water in the pan and cover with aluminum foil. Bake until the pumpkin is very soft, about 1 hour. Let cool in the pan, reserving the liquid in the pan. Scrape the flesh from the rind; discard the rind and the cinnamon stick. Blend the pumpkin with the remaining liquid in the pan, strain, and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Lay out a wonton wrapper, brush with the beaten egg, and place 1 teaspoon of muscade de Provence filling in the center of the wrapper. Cover with a second wrapper and press down the edges around the filling, making sure to push all air bubbles away from the center towards the outer edges. Press on the edges to seal. Use a cutter in order to shape the ravioli or trim the edges to the desired from. Dust with flour to prevent sticking, and chill until ready to use.
- To cook, blanch the ravioli in boiling water for 1 minute.
- To make the truffle butter sauce: Mix 1 1/2 cups of the beurre fondue with the truffle and veal stock, if using.
- To make the salad: In a bowl, mix together the frisee, celery root, microgreens, almonds, and apples. Toss with the vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- To serve: Immerse the lobster in the warm beurre fondue and leave for 2 minutes, off the heat, just long enough to warm up the lobster and finish the cooking. Put a spoonful of truffle butter sauce on the bottom of a plate to make a circle. Put the warm ravioli on top. Season with salt, pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Then set the lobster on the ravioli, pulled somewhat out of its shell. Add the salad on top, tucking it in some of the lobster shell.

FILET MIGNONS WITH BALSAMIC PAN SAUCE AND TRUFFLE OIL
DH and I made this recipe for lunch today and thought it was good for a fast and easy to prepare meal. It is from my Williams-Sonoma "Steak and Chops" cookbook. Instead of cooking the steak in a pan as posted, we grilled ours. DH usually adds a small bit of steak fat to the pan he's cooking the sauce in to give it flavor. We used white truffle oil, as the recipe does not specify white or black.

- In the same pan over medium-high heat, add the vinegar and deglaze by scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Cook until slightly reduced and thickened, about 3 minutes.
- Remove from the heat. Whisk in the butter to form a smooth sauce.
- To serve, transfer the steaks to individual plates, top with the sauce, and drizzle with a small amount of truffle oil.

Steps:
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. While water is heating, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the garlic until fragrant but not brown, about 1 minute. Stir in the zucchini slices, and cook until tender and slightly browned, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- About 5 minutes after starting to cook the zucchini, stir the mushroom ravioli into the boiling water. Let them cook until they begin to float, about 5 minutes; scoop out the ravioli with a slotted spoon, and add them to the zucchini. Melt 1 more tablespoon of butter with the ravioli and zucchini, and drizzle the dish with truffle oil. Gently toss the ravioli and zucchini to thoroughly coat with butter and truffle oil, and serve.
