SHAVED CHOCOLATE RECIPES

Steps:

• This works great as a stand-alone recipe, but also as a component in Jamie's Taco Party from Together – see the full collection of menus here. GET AHEAD Line a 1.5-litre freezer-proof terrine mould or loaf tin with a double layer of clingfilm, letting it overhang at the edges. Melt the chocolate in a large heatproof bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, making sure the water doesn’t touch the base of the bowl. Remove and allow to cool while you separate the eggs. Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of sea salt until super-stiff, then in a separate bowl, whisk the cream with the sugar until it forms soft peaks. Stir the rice pudding and cocoa into the melted chocolate, then whisk up the egg yolks and fold in with a spatula, followed by the cream. Finally, fold in the whites, working from the outside in and from bottom to top, until fully mixed but being mindful to retain as much air as possible. Pour into the lined mould, fold in the overhanging clingfilm to cover, then freeze overnight. TO SERVE Move the semifreddo from freezer to fridge 2 hours before you want to eat so you have a semi-frozen, sliceable dessert. Turn it out on to a serving platter, and sprinkle over the Hazelnut brittle and Spiced dust. Nice with shaved or grated chocolate, too.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the crust: Pulse the graham crackers and granulated sugar in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse a few times until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the side of a 9-inch pie plate, making a thicker rim around the edge. Bake until the top edge is firm and the bottom is dry, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
• Make the filling: Melt the butter and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool 5 minutes. Whisk in the granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla and salt until smooth. Whisk in the flour until combined.
• Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
• Make the topping: Combine the heavy cream, marshmallow cream and confectioners' sugar in a food processor and pulse, scraping down the processor, until the mixture is thick. Spoon the topping onto the center of the pie. Top with shaved chocolate.
