Black cherry almond ripple semifreddo (Semifreddo de cerezas con almendras)

I think maybe is the first time that Christmas is so close and Im in this state of mind (not even when my mother died) .

(sad and exausted)

All days is a fight, it's all so uncertain, you don't know what will happen, when we will be calmer anyway you don't know

nothing.

And of course I support the demands, and this government has committed many injustices and caused a lot of pain.

Oh well... I have started to put myself in Christmas spirit and decided that I want to start cooking about Christmas.

This Black cherry Semifreddo is delicious for every season you can make with other fruits or with frozen cherries.

Sometimes semifreddo is better than Ice cream and is really easy , usually I make at night, freeze and you can serve to the following day.

The recipe

Ingredients

3/4 cup granulated white sugar
4 large egg yolks
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup silvered almonds toasted
1 1/2 cups dark cherries pitted and halved
(can use frozen cherries)

Method

Line a loaf pan (9x5 inch 9x 13 cm) ) with plastic wrap letting the excess hang over from the sides .

In a double boiler whisk together the sugar and egg yolks until the sugar dissolves and the the egg yolks triple in size (about 6 minutes). The yolks will be plate and frothy.

Using a stand mixer or by hand whip the heavy cream until it forms medium peaks. Carefully fold in half the egg yolks, making sure not to deflate too much of the whipped cream and then the remaining yolks.
Scraping down the bottom and sides of the bowl. Gently stir in the almond extract.
Scoop about 1/3 of the mix into your prepared pan and place 1/4 cup of almonds and about 1/2 cup of cherries .
Add more whipped cream and build layers so you end up with 3 total layers of filling and 1/4 cup almonds and 1/2 cup of cherries remaining to top.

Carefully fold over the excess plastic wrap and place in the freezer to firm up for at least 4-6 hours.

Remove the semifreddo from the freezer, flip out onto the surface remove the plastic wrap and top with the remaining almonds and cherries.

Pears and strawberry Crumble (Crumble de peras , almendras, coco y frutillas)

If you ask me right now which season I like best, I would say it is autumn so far. Sincerely at this time I would be happy to be in Autumn and winter will come. But we are at the end of spring and starting with a very hot summer , and with all the problems we are living here in our country now is very hard. (Many fights here in many sites that is worry me) You can go out one day and you do not know if there will be subway or buses. Or maybe you have an appointment with the kinesiologist and nobody tells you that he left earlier or that date was suspended, anyway. And when you ask why happens this, all say but you know the times we are living. Im not agree with it. In the middle of this I try to keep doing things like baking, reading and pray (like always reading is my my joy) And I pray a lot by different reasons. Please pray for for our country we need it. I made my first strawberry jam and I hope to make apricots jam soon. And I made this crumble a few weeks ago (time

Baked-Egg Tartlets ( Tartas con huevo al horno y ensaladas)

Spring is just starting here in the Southern hemisphere. But even the mornings are very cold. But the most beautiful are the roses that have begun to bloom little by little. When we arrived at this house there was nothing, absolutely nothing around, no plants, trees, or flowers. The house was abandoned several years.(all these was about 10 years ago) And these roses were brought to me( 10 years ago) by a lady who lived close our house and said : you have to plant these roses, are amazing. We made. They are like a miracle. They have also multiplied over these years. Baked egg tartlets About the recipe are simple and delicious individual tarts with a mustard sauce and egg inside that is baking in the oven. Are really delicious.

Chocolate brownie muffins ( brownies /muffins de chocolate)

I had several recipes ready but it took me some time start the posts, honestly it's hard think what to talk about, maybe from here? of the current situation, of sorrows and distress, or about Christmas that is so close and I love Christmas? Although I am not normally depressed, it is hard to keep the spirit when you watch the news, when there are fires, looting and other things, how did this come about? I dont know. Apart from praying, reading and baking (catharsis) I try to think about Christmas. Even in the most difficult times people celebrate Christmas, and I believe in God and the birth of Jesus, so I will try to take care of the Christmas spirit. Well, apart from continuing to make jams (apricots are maturing) and I don't like to bury the fruit so that's what I'm in. This recipe for "Brownie muffins" has the best of everything, it is a muffin with the taste of a brownie. Thank you all for your mails, love and concern, hugs and kisses to all ! Source
