LEAP DAY 4-LAYER PIE RECIPE BY TASTY

• Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Unroll 1 tube of pizza dough and cut in half crosswise. Loosely shape into 2 8-inch (20 cm) circles, trimming off the corners if necessary. Transfer the dough rounds to the prepared baking sheet, spacing at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart.
• Bake the pizza dough rounds for 15 minutes, until light golden brown. Let cool completely.
• Make the garlic oil: In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, stir together the olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, red pepper flakes, and parsley until combined. Set aside.
• Unroll 2 more tubes of pizza dough and cut both in half crosswise. Reserve 1 half for later. Cut the 3 remaining halves crosswise into 8 strips each, for a total of 24. Tie each strip into a knot and place in a large bowl.
• Pour the garlic oil over the dough knots and toss to coat completely. Set aside.
• Make the pasta bake: In a separate large bowl, mix together the ricotta, egg, marinara sauce, and Parmesan cheese until combined. Add the penne, sliced pepperoni, and mozzarella and mix until well incorporated. Set aside.
• Make the sprinkle cookie dough: In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar cookie dough and sprinkles until the sprinkles are evenly distributed. Set aside.
• Assemble the pie: Grease an 8-inch wide and 5-inch tall Dutch oven with nonstick spray.
• Arrange the dough knots evenly in the bottom of the Dutch oven. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the dough.
• Unroll the remaining package of pizza dough. Cut in half crosswise. Use the dough to line the walls of the Dutch oven, letting it hang over the edge by ½ inch. Use the reserved half piece of dough to patch together any gaps. Allow the bottom edge of the dough to overlap the shredded mozzarella, so there is no gap.
• Spread the spinach-artichoke dip over the shredded cheese in an even layer. Place one of the baked dough rounds on top of the dip, trimming to fit as needed.
• Add the pasta bake mixture on top of the pizza dough round and spread in an even layer. Top with the whole pepperoni. Place the remaining baked dough round on top, trimming to fit as needed. Fold the overhanging dough over the baked dough round.

• Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes, until the cookie is golden brown around the edges.
• While the pie is baking, make the garlic butter: Combine the butter, garlic and salt in a small bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, until the butter is melted.
• Let the pie cool for 40 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the Dutch oven and carefully invert the pie onto a serving platter. Brush the top of the pie with the garlic butter and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and parsley.
• Slice the pie and serve with the warm marinara and whipped cream alongside.

FOUR LAYER CHOCOLATE CREAM CHEESE PIE

Steps:

• Mix the crust ingredients, pack into bottom of a 9x13 baking pan, bake at 325 degrees for about 25 minutes (until crust is light brown). Cool completely.
• Beat together the powdered sugar, cool whip and cream cheese. Set aside.
• Beat together the chocolate pudding and milk, let it set up in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes. Make sure you only put 3 c milk, instead of the amount specified on the back of the pudding box.
• When crust is cool, spread white layer evenly over crust. I find this is easier if you spoon big dollops in many places over crust, as opposed to spooning it all out in one spot. That way the crust isn't as likely to crumble when you spread it evenly.
• Spread the chocolate mixture evenly over the cream cheese mixture.
• Spread cool whip evenly over the chocolate layer. I try to put about as much cool whip on top to be as thick as the other layers.
• Top with chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or anything else that sounds scrumptious.

FOUR-LAYER CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 8-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray and line the bottoms with parchment. Spray the parchment and dust with flour.
• Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
• Beat together the butter and sugar in a stand mixer until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the eggs one at time and beat until incorporated. Add the sour cream and continue to beat until fully incorporated. Then add the vanilla.
• Stir together the instant espresso powder with the hot water in a spouted measuring cup. With the mixer running, add the dry ingredients in two additions, alternating with the espresso.
• Divide the batter between the cake pans and bake until a tester inserted in the centers comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool the cakes in the pans on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove the cakes to the rack to cool completely.
• Slice a thin layer from the top of each cooled cake with a serrated knife to remove the domed top. With a serrated knife, slice the layers in half horizontally to make 4 layers. Spread buttercream on the cut side of a layer and sandwich another layer on top. Repeat with the remaining frosting and layers, leaving the last top layer unfrosted.
• Apply a thin crumb-coat of frosting to the entire cake and chill in the refrigerator at least 15 minutes to set. Use the remaining frosting to generously frost the cake.
• Put the egg whites and sugar into a large bowl set over a double boiler. Whisk constantly until the sugar melts and the mixture is very thin and warm.
• Pour the egg whites into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whisk on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. Turn to low speed and continue beating until cool, about 10 minutes.
• Turn the mixer to medium speed and whisk in the butter in small pieces. (The mixture may look curdled before it comes together.) Add the vanilla extract. Re-beat the mixture as needed to keep it smooth as you frost your cake.
