PRUNES IN ARMAGNAC
Steps:
- Place 3 cups of water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat, add the tea bags, and steep for 5 minutes. Discard the tea bags, add the prunes and honey, turn the heat to medium-high, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 3 minutes to plump the prunes.
- Pour the prunes and all the liquid into a medium bowl and stir in the Armagnac, vanilla, orange juice, vanilla bean, and cinnamon sticks. With a vegetable peeler, cut 4 large strips of zest from 1 lemon and add to the mixture. Cut the lemon in half, cut 4 (1/2-inch-thick) slices, and add to the bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside at room temperature for 6 to 12 hours. (If you're not serving the prunes that day, refrigerate them in their liquid.)
- To serve, place the prunes in shallow dessert bowls and serve cold, at room temperature, or slightly warmed, spooning the macerating liquid over them. Add a scoop of ice cream, a drizzle of Armagnac, a drizzle of honey, and a sprinkling of grated lemon zest. (You'll be surprised how much flavor this adds!) Serve immediately.

PRUNES IN ARMAGNAC
Adapted from A New Way to Cook by Sally Schneider and found at splendidtable.com. If you don't have Armagnac, any good brandy may be used. The prunes are sublime served over vanilla and coffee ice cream and as an ingredient in pear, apple, or quince tarts. Prepare at least 1 week before serving to allow the prunes to mellow. Since they last indefinitely, you can keep them on hand for instant desserts. Packed in a pretty jar, they make a welcome gift. There is a 1 week standing time.

PRUNE-ARMAGNAC MOUSSE
I have been on the prowl for the just right deep smooth seductive prune mousse - coupled with Armagnac & just a bit of deep dark chocolate. Mmmmm! This isn't for the faint of heart! Use un-pitted prunes if you can manage to find them and pit them after they've simmered and cooled. Otherwise use pitted but simmer gently! Adapted from NYT 06/10/08. Time does not include 2-3 hours chill time in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Place prunes, tea, & sugar in a nonreactive saucepan with a cover. Gently simmer covered 10 minutes, add Armagnac & simmer uncovered for 5 minutes more. Add lemon juice. Set aside 4 prunes to drain for garnish.
- Puree rest of the prunes in food processor with 1/2 of the simmering liquid. Add more liquid by the tablespoonful if needed to keep puree from becoming too thick. You are shooting for a loose but jammy (not liquidy) consistency. Taste & add more sugar if necessary. Cool to room temp then chill in fridge 30 minutes to 1 hour - do not let get too thick to fold in whipped cream.
- Whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks and fold it into the prune puree.
- Whip the egg whites until sharp peaks form (but not dry) and fold them into the prunes. Fold the grated chocolate into mousse with the egg whites.
- Pour into tall champagne flutes, dust with cocoa powder, garnish with reserved prune and chill for two hours before serving.

PRUNES IN ARMAGNAC
This sweet dessert is a perfect ending to a bistro-inspired meal. You can prepare prunes anytime from two weeks in advance, for maximum flavor, to the evening of the dinner. To play up the French theme, serve with creme fraiche instead of ice cream.
