Steps:
- Combine the instant coffee and sugar in a small mixing bowl. Add the boiling water and stir to dissolve. Set aside to cool.
- With a blender or food processor, whip the ricotta and sour cream together until smooth. Add the cooled coffee mixture, rum (if using) and blend well. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
- Make the whipped cream: pour the heavy cream into a chilled mixing bowl and beat at medium speed until the mixture begins to thicken. Add the sugar and almond extract and continue to whip until the cream is stiff. Refrigerate until serving.
- To serve, melt the chocolate bits and spoon a bit of the melted chocolate into the bottom of a demitasse cup.
- Fill about 3/4 full with the ricotta mixture. Add another bit of melted chocolate, and a dollop of whipped cream.
- Garnish with chocolate curls or shavings and almonds.
- Serve immediately.
SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA: THE TRADITIONAL ITALIAN RECIPE
This dish was created in the Lazio region (the area around Rome) in the middle of the 20th century, after World War Two. We don't use cream, milk, garlic, onions or other strange ingredients; we use only guanciale, eggs, pecorino cheese, and lots of black pepper (carbonaro is the Italian for coal miner). This isn't the Italian-American version, it's the real, creamy carbonara and it comes right from Italy, where I live. Buon appetito.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add guanciale (see Cook's Note). Cook, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crispy, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 9 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Let cool, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk eggs, half of the Pecorino Romano cheese, and some black pepper in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Pour egg mixture over pasta, stirring quickly, until creamy and slightly cooled. Stir in guanciale. Top with remaining Pecorino Romano cheese and more black pepper.

ITALIAN RICOTTA CAKE
This is an excellent, filling dessert that feeds a crowd! I bring this cake to family get-togethers and am always asked for the recipe! It is made in a 9x13-inch pan, and has a cheesecake-like consistency. Serve it with whipped cream and fresh or frozen berries.

Steps:
- Cream butter and gradually add sugar. Beat until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, while continuing beating. Add brandy. Add flour and baking powder. Mix into a dough until the consistency is like Play-Doh®. Press dough into a greased and floured 9x13-inch pan. Refrigerate for 2 1/2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Beat ricotta cheese in a large bowl 4 to 5 minutes on high speed. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition. Add sugar and heavy cream and beat until blended. Fold in egg whites.
- Spoon 1/2 of the mixture into the crust. Sprinkle 1/2 of the zests and 1/2 of the cinnamon on top. Repeat with remaining filling, zest, and cinnamon.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Turn off the oven and let cake cool in the oven for 2 hours. Remove from the oven and chill completely before serving.
