APRICOT JELLY ROLL WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE



Apricot Jelly Roll with White Chocolate image

This jelly roll recipe uses the moistest and richest of all sponges--the chiffon cake--as the platform for a filling of apricot and mascarpone cream. The trick to getting the perfect spiral without breaking the cake is to "train" it by rolling it in a tea towel while still warm, forming a rolled memory while it cools. Then the cake can be filled and re-rolled easily.

Time 2h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup cake flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 large egg yolks plus 4 large egg whites, at room temperature, kept separately
1/3 cup whole milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
6 to 8 drops yellow food coloring
Unsalted butter or vegetable shortening, for the pan
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar, for rolling
1 cup apricot jam
1 cup chopped white chocolate
1 cup mascarpone
1/2 cup sifted confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup white chocolate curls

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil.
  • For the chiffon cake: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour and 1/4 cup of the sugar. Add the baking powder and salt to the bowl and whisk together. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the 3 egg yolks, milk, vegetable oil and vanilla until combined.
  • Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk together to form a loose batter. Be sure to continue whisking until all the clumps of flour have been completely incorporated and the batter is smooth. Fold in the yellow food coloring to reach the desired color. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, add the 4 egg whites to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and begin to beat on medium speed until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and continue beating. Begin slowly streaming in the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and continue beating until the meringue holds stiff, glossy peaks, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • With a rubber spatula, incorporate a third of the meringue into your batter, folding it in to preserve as much air in the egg whites as possible. Gently fold in the remaining meringue and continue to stir until completely incorporated.
  • Line a quarter sheet pan with parchment paper and butter the parchment and the sides of the pan. Pour in the cake batter and smooth out to fill all the corners. Bake until a cake tester comes out clean, about 15 minutes.
  • While the cake is baking, prepare your fillings: Melt the white chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over a small saucepan of simmering water (don't let the bowl touch the water). When the chocolate is melted, allow it to cool slightly and whisk in the mascarpone and confectioners' sugar. Remove one cup of this mixture and add to a piping bag fitted with a star tip.
  • Before the cake comes out of the oven, dust a tea towel larger than the pan with a nice layer of confectioners' sugar. When cake is done, using a knife, loosen the sides of the cake from the pan. While the cake is still warm, invert it onto the prepared tea towel and carefully remove the parchment paper. Roll up the cake with the tea towel from short end to short end and move onto a wire rack and to cool, seam-side down, for 20 minutes.
  • While the cake is still somewhat warm, unroll it and smear the inside with a thick layer of apricot jam.
  • On top of the jam, add the mascarpone filling from the bowl (save what is in the piping bag for decorating at the end). Cover the jam with mascarpone filling from end to end.
  • Reroll the cake, removing the tea towel as you roll. Allow the cake to completely cool and set, seam-side down.
  • Decorate the cake by piping the remaining mascarpone mixture down center of the cake and around the base. Add white chocolate curls all over.

CHOCOLATE-APRICOT BABKA



Chocolate-Apricot Babka image

You may think it unfathomable to change up a classic babka recipe, but maybe there's something to be said about playing with a classic. Ann Amernick, the author of "The Art of the Dessert," adds apricot jam to her chocolate babka for a little acidity. Poundcake crumbs lighten the filling a bit, soaking up the jam. It's a twist on the traditional, and perhaps a new favorite.

Time 2h

Yield 1 large Bundt babka or 2 loaf babkas

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cake flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 ounce or 2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast, or 1 cake (6/10 ounces) fresh yeast
1/2 cup whole milk at room temperature
1/2 cup eggs (whole eggs or just yolks)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 ounces unsalted butter (1 stick), preferably high fat, at room temperature, plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Flour for dusting
6 ounces apricot preserves (3/4 cup)
3/4 cup dry poundcake crumbs
2 ounces unsalted high-fat butter, melted
4 ounces good bittersweet chocolate
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon (optional)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced and chilled

Steps:

  • To make dough, combine flours, salt and all but 1 tablespoon sugar in mixer fitted with dough attachment and mix on medium speed. In a small bowl, stir yeast with one tablespoon warm water and reserved tablespoon sugar just until sugar and yeast have dissolved. Reduce mixer speed to low, add yeast mixture, milk, eggs and vanilla. Beat until dough is shiny and elastic, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add one stick butter by spoonfuls until thoroughly incorporated, then beat on low speed for about 5 minutes. When finished, dough should be silken and rich like very thick ice cream. Transfer to a large bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside. When dough has doubled in size, after 2 hours, flour a cutting board and your hands. Then push dough down on board, cover well with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours or overnight.
  • To make filling, purée apricot preserves in a food processor until smooth. In a small bowl, combine cake crumbs, preserves and butter; mix until smooth. Set aside. Grate chocolate by hand in large holes of a box grater or in a food processor. If using a food processor, pulse into large chunks. Set aside.
  • To make streusel topping, in a small bowl mix flour, sugar and cinnamon. Add cold butter and using your fingers, mix together until crumbly. Set aside.
  • To assemble, line one Bundt pan or two 8 1/2 by 4 1/2-inch loaf pans with parchment paper, not letting paper come more than 1 inch above top of pans. Remove dough from refrigerator and divide it in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll one piece of dough into a 12 x 8-inch rectangle.
  • Using a metal spatula, spread half the apricot filling over dough within 1/2 inch of edges. Sprinkle with half the grated chocolate. Beginning with long side, roll dough up tightly and fold in ends. Twist babka lengthwise to create a spiral, holding one end of babka in each hand. Place twisted babka in half the prepared Bundt pan or in a loaf pan, pressing dough firmly into pan. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Brush babka top with melted butter and sprinkle with half the streusel. Repeat with second half of babka dough. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let loaves rise at room temperature until they reach top of pan or about doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees and bake for about 45 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in center comes out clean. Allow babka to cool for 30 minutes before cutting. Slice babka and serve.
