FRESH BERRY CHANTILLY CAKE

Steps:

• Grease two 9-inch pans. Line the bottom with parchment paper. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to cream the butter and sugar together, 2 minutes, until creamy. Beat in vanilla extract.
• Use a fork to combine the milk, eggs, and vegetable oil together in a bowl or 2 cup liquid measuring cup. Set aside. In another mixing bowl stir together cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and mix in until just combined. Add in half of the milk mixture and combine. Add in another 1/3 of the dry ingredients until combined followed by the remainder of the milk mixture. Add in the remainder of the dry ingredients and mix with the hand mixer until just combined, using a rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom to make sure everything is mixed in.
• Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans. Bake at 350 for 25 to 30 minutes. Let sit in pans for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
• In a separate mixing bowl, cream together cream cheese and mascarpone until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in powdered sugar until combined and smooth.
• Fold whipped cream and cream cheese mixture together using a rubber spatula. Fold until just combined. Refrigerate until ready to assemble cake.
• Place mixed berries into a medium sized mixing bowl. Add in lemon zest and juice and toss to combine.
• In a microwave safe bowl, stir together jam with water. Microwave until melted, about 30 seconds.
• Slice each vanilla cake layer in half to create four layers.
• Spread 1/3 of the jam filling onto the bottom cake layer. Top with an even layer of chantilly cream and then place 2/3 cup of fresh berries on top of the cream.
• Continue layering with cake, jam, chantilly cream, and berries. Top final layer with remaining chantilly cream and frost the outside. Optional garnish the top with additional berries.

MERINGUES CHANTILLY WITH ROASTED BERRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Using a small glass and a pencil, draw 4 (3 1/2-inch) circles on each piece of paper. Turn the paper face down on the baking sheets.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt on high speed until frothy. Add 2/3 cup of the sugar and continue beating on high speed until the egg whites form very stiff peaks. Whisk in the vanilla. Carefully fold the remaining 1/3 cup sugar into the meringue. With a large star - shaped pastry tip, pipe a disk of meringue inside each circle. Pipe another layer around the edge to form the sides of the shells.
• Bake for 2 hours, or until the meringues are dry and crisp but not browned. Turn off the heat and allow the meringues to sit in the oven for 4 hours or overnight.
• For serving, place each meringue on a separate plate and top the shell with berries.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and blackberries on a sheet pan and toss with the sugar and vanilla bean seeds. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes. Cool to room temperature before serving.

FRENCH CHANTILLY CREAM (CRèME CHANTILLY)

• In a large mixing bowl , beat the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract together on high speed until soft peaks form.
• Use as your recipe directs. Chill any unused Chantilly cream.

MERINGUES CHANTILLY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Using a small glass and a pencil, draw 6 (3 1/2-inch) circles on each piece of paper. Turn the paper face-down on the baking sheets.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and a large pinch of salt on medium speed until frothy. Add 1 cup of the sugar and raise the speed to high until the egg whites form very stiff peaks. Whisk in the vanilla. Carefully fold the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar into the meringue. With a large star - shaped pastry tip, pipe a disc of meringue inside each circle. Pipe another layer around the edge to form the sides of the shells.
• Bake for 2 hours, or until the meringues are dry and crisp but not browned. Turn off the heat and allow the meringues to sit in the oven for 4 hours or overnight.
• Spread some of the sauce from the stewed berries on each plate. Place a meringue on top and fill with whipped cream. Top with berries and serve.
• Whip the cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. When it starts to thicken, add the sugar, vanilla and orange liqueur and continue to whip until the cream forms stiff peaks. Don't overbeat, or you'll end up with butter!
• Combine the blueberries, one-half pint of raspberries, the sugar and zest in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and cook uncovered over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes. The juice will become a syrup and the berries will be slightly cooked. Off the heat, stir in the remaining raspberries and the framboise. Set aside.

VANILLA CHANTILLY CREAM

Steps:

• Split vanilla bean lengthwise with the tip of a sharp knife. Holding the pod open, scrape seeds from each half using the flat side of the knife. Transfer seeds to a large bowl; discard pod.
• Pour heavy cream over vanilla seeds. Add sugar and vanilla extract. Whip with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until serving.

CHANTILLY CREAM (CREME CHANTILLY)

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients.
• Using a hand whisk (balloon whisk) or electric whisk, beat the cream in a stainless steel or glass or china bowl (not plastic- doesn't seem to whip as well).
• It is whipped properly when it is still soft and billowy but holds its shape when the whisk is withdrawn.
• Once the cream is whipped, cover and store in the fridge.
• If it separates slightly, just rewhip to restore its thickness.
