WHITE CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY TART

Steps:

• Bring cream to boil in large pot over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in white chocolate until melted and smooth.
• Stir in mascarpone cheese until mixture is smooth and uniform.
• Pack raspberries in a tight layer over base of your favourite tart shell (but don't smush them!). Pour over chocolate mixture covering berries evenly. Some rapsberries may poke out.
• Shave dark chocolate over tart if desired.

WHITE CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY TART!

Steps:

• Mix the digestive biscuits in a food processor or break the biscuits into a fine crumb in a bowl with a rolling pin.
• Add the melted unsalted butter and mix together until combined.
• Spread onto the bottom and sides of an 23cm loose bottomed tart tin. I usually start on the sides, and then cover the bottom last.
• Add your raspberries, sugar and water to a pan. Heat on a low-medium heat until the fruit starts to break down and soften.
• Once heated for about 3-4 minutes, remove from the heat and puree to a liquid.
• Pass the coulis through a sieve to remove the seeds and let the mixture cool.
• Add the white chocolate and butter to a large bowl.
• Pour the cream into a small pan, and heat the cream until just before boiling point.
• Pour the cream onto the chocolate and butter and leave to sit for five minutes.
• Whisk the mixture until it smooths - if any lumps of chocolate remain, add the mixture back into the pan and heat on a low heat until smooth.
• Pour the ganache into the tart case - dollop in about half of the raspberry coulis, and swirl the mixture together with a cake skewer.
• Set the tart in the fridge for a couple of hours until set.
• Remove the tart from the tin carefully, and put onto a serving plate.
• Decorate the tart with some fresh raspberries and freeze dried raspberries, and some grated white chocolate!
• Serve with an extra drizzle of coulis!

WHITE CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare pastry cream: Puree raspberries in a blender. Strain to remove seeds. Set aside pulp; you should have 1 cup.
• Whisk egg yolks, sugar, flour, and cornstarch in a bowl until completely smooth.
• Warm cream in a small saucepan over low heat until just hot enough to steam. Once steaming, add 1/2 of it to the egg mixture, whisking constantly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Add that mixture back into the hot cream mixture and continue to heat and stir until custard is very thick, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the reserved raspberry pulp. Let sit until cooled to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Place parchment or waxed paper over the surface to prevent a skin from forming and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease the sides and bottoms of two 9-inch round, metal or glass cake pans.
• Prepare cake: Blend cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a large bowl at low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Beat at medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 23 to 28 minutes. Cool in the pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Remove cakes from the pans and cool completely, about 15 to 20 more minutes.
• Prepare the frosting: Beat butter and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl on medium speed until creamy. Beat in melted white chocolate. Add vanilla and beat on low speed, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl, until light and fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a #18 star tip.
• Level the tops of the cooled cake layers with a large serrated knife. Pipe a small amount of frosting onto the center of a serving plate. Put one layer, cut-side down, on the plate. Pipe a thick ring around the top edge of that layer; this will keep the filling in the cake and prevent the layers from sliding. Spread raspberry pastry cream onto the cake. Place to remaining layer, cut-side down, on top. Frost the top and sides with remaining frosting, decorating as desired.
• Hold white chocolate bar in one hand with a paper towel (to stop it from melting in your hand). Use a vegetable peeler and slowly and carefully shave along the length of the bar to form pretty curls. Put chocolate curls on the sides of the cake and place raspberries in a ring around the top edge.

WHITE CHOCOLATE & RASPBERRY CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease and line the base of 2 x 20cm round, loose-bottomed cake tins. Put the butter and chocolate in a heatproof mixing bowl, set over a pan of barely simmering water and allow to melt slowly, stirring occasionally.
• When the butter and chocolate have melted, remove from the heat and allow to cool for 1-2 mins, then beat in the eggs and sugar with an electric whisk. Fold in the flour and raspberries.
• Gently pour the mixture into the tins and bake for 20-25 mins or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean (the raspberries may leave a residue on the skewer, so don't be fooled by their juiciness). Remove the cakes from the oven and allow to cool in the tins for 10 mins before turning out onto a wire rack.
• To make the ganache, put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl with 100ml of the cream, set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir until the chocolate has melted into the cream and you are left with a smooth, glossy ganache. Leave the ganache to cool to room temperature, then beat in the rest of the cream.
• When the cakes have cooled, sandwich them together with the chocolate ganache. Dust with icing sugar just before serving.
