Lost Recipe

  Re: (...)
Help. . .
I'm looking for a Raspberry Pound Cake Parfait receipe that would have been in a Late 04 or Early 05 issue before Jun 05. The dessert is served in individual parfait glasses and drizzled with rum & Raspberry sauce. I fixed it for my sons Graduation party and it was a huge hit. I've not thrown out any of my CAH magazines but this issue mysteriously dissapeared! Can someone help me??? Please send me the recipe if possible or tell me the issue so I can send away for it.

I went through all of the "cakes" which included the parfaits and there wasn't one listed by that title. There was one or two parfaits listed if you'd like the recipes.
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.

Sorry for any confusion, it was not named Raspberry Pound Cake Parfait that is more like a description of the dessert, unfortunately I don't remember the actual name of the recipe.

Let me check again and I'll get back to you. It was a parfait though wasn't it?

Ok, here's what I found. There is a "Black Forest Parfait", a "Peach Trifle" that uses raspberries, and a "Trifle" that uses raspberries. I downloaded all three in case you wanted them. Just let me know.

Yes, please I'd love to see all three but I think it might be the one with the peaches. When I mentioned this to my husband he remembered peaches also being an ingredient. I will be forever thankful that you found it! So will my family, as I'd like to serve it once again at my youngest sons graduation coming this 2007.
Where were you able to download the recipes, from Cuisine at Homes website?

Peach Trifle

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : A List Desserts-Ices

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
For the Sugared Almonds-
Rinse and Combine:
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup powdered sugar
Layer for the Trifles-
Combine -- Toss:
1 lb. fresh peaches -- peeled and sliced into wedges
2 T. sugar
Juice of 1/2 a lime
Cube -- Drizzle with when Assembling:
3 cups -- ¥
1 pound cake -- thawed if frozen, (about 9 oz.)
3/4 cup light rum -- dark rum, or apple juice
Combine and Beat:
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 t. almond extract
Puree:
1 cup fresh raspberries
1/4 cup raspberry jam
Juice of 1/2 a lime
Garnish with:
1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh mint leaves
Sugared almonds

Rinse almonds under water. While wet, combine with powdered sugar so a gummy paste coats them. Spread nuts on a baking sheet coated with nonstick spray and bake at 400° for 5 minutes, then stir. Return to oven for another 3-4 minutes, or until golden. Spread almonds on parchment paper and let cool. Set aside.

Combine peaches with sugar and lime juice. Toss to coat; set aside.

Cube pound cake into 1" pieces.

Combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and almond extract in a bowl. Beat cream on high speed using an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form, 4-5 minutes. Set aside.

Puree raspberries, jam, amd lime juice in a blender until smooth. Layer the components two times in each glass. Start with sliced peaches, then the pound cake drizzled with rum, then the raspberry sauce, followed by the whipped cream. When assembling, don't pack layers down too much-having spaces will allow the ingredients to flow into one another, helping blend the flavors. Cover the trifles and chill at least 1 hour and up to 24.

Garnish with sugared almonds and mint just before serving.

Trifle

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : A List Desserts-Ices

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
For the Custard-
Heat:
3 cups whole milk
1 1/2 cups half & half
1 vanilla bean -- split and scraped
Combine and Add:
4 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
Stir in:
2 T. unsalted butter -- softened
1 T. vanilla extract
For the Raspberry Sauce-
Simmer:
2 pkg. frozen raspberries -- (12 oz. each)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup red currant jelly
2 T. brandy
1 T. fresh lemon juice
Combine and Whisk in:
2 T. cold water
1 T. cornstarch
Assemble Trifle with:
1/2 cup brandy
1/2 cup cream sherry
1 1/2 cups pineapple -- peeled and diced
2 12 oz. pound cakes -- cut into 1/2-inch cubes
For the Rosettes-
Whip:
1 cup heavy cream
2 T. brown sugar -- packed
1 T. lemon zest -- minced
Sprinkle:
1/4 cup sliced almonds -- toasted

Heat milk, half & half, and vanilla bean to a simmer over medium heat.

Combine eggs, sugar, and cornstarch, in a bowl. Temper some of the hot milk into the egg mixture-this keeps the eggs from scrambling. Then whisk the egg mixture into all of the milk. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until thickened, 8-10 minutes. It should be consistency of soft pudding.

Stir in butter and vanilla, off heat. Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap (press on the surface so a "skin" doesn't form). Chill. In a large saucepan, combine berries, sugar, jelly, brandy, and juice.

Simmer over medium heat until berries break down, 10-15 min. Strain mixture through a strainer lined with cheesecloth. Press on seeds to release juice. Discard seeds and return juice to clean pan. Bring the berry juice to a boil.

Combine cold water with cornstarch in a small bowl, then whisk it into the boiling juice. Boil the sauce 1-2 min. until thickened, whisking often to prevent scorching. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and chill until assembly. Before assembling, combine the brandy and sherry in a small bowl. Then dice peeled and cored fresh pineapple into 1/2" cubes. Cut cake into cubes (10-12 cups).

To assemble, spread a layer of cake cubes on bottom of trifle dish; brush with brandy mixture. Spoon about 1/3 cup raspberry sauce over cake layer. Press cake gently with rubber spatula so it soaks into and between the cubes. Gently spread about 1 1/2 cups custard over sauce, all the way to the edges-it's okay if it swirls with sauce. Add 1/2 cup pineapple. Repeat the layering procedure three more times, ending with a layer of custard. Cover the trifle with plastic and chill 8-24 hours.

Whip the cream, brown sugar, and lemon zest to soft peaks, just before serving. Spoon into a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe large rosettes on top of the trifle. Toast almonds in a small skillet until golden.

Sprinkle them over the top and serve-use a big spoon and dig deep into the bowl!

Just noticed in the Peach Triffle recipe -

"3 cups -- ¥
1 pound cake -- thawed if frozen, (about 9 oz.)"

should read -
