ZUCCOTTO ALLA RICOTTA
Steps:
- Butter a 1 1/2-quart bowl and line it with plastic wrap. Slice a disk from the Pan di Spagna and cut the rest into 2 large wedges. Cut the wedges into thin slices and line the bowl with them. Sprinkle with the Strega. Reserve the disk to cover the filling later on.
- Combine the ricotta and confectioners' sugar in the food processor and process until smooth, about 2 minutes. Combine the Strega and gelatin and allow to soak until the liquid is absorbed, then place over simmering water to melt. Whisk the dissolved gelatin into the ricotta mixture. Whip the cream and fold it into the mixture. Fold in the almonds.
- Pour the filling into the prepared mold and cover with the reserved slice of the Pan di Spagna. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until set, about 6 hours. Invert the Zuccotto on the platter and remove the bowl and plastic wrap.
- For the meringue, combine egg whites and sugar in the bowl of electric mixer and place over a pan of simmering water, whisking constantly, until egg whites are hot and sugar is dissolved. Whip on mixer until cooled and increased in volume.
- Spread meringue on outside of dessert. Pipe on a decoration of remaining meringue with a pastry bag fitted with a medium star tube. Place Zuccotto in 400 degree oven for about 5 minutes to color meringue. Chill before serving.

BROWNIES (BY NICK MALGIERI)
This recipes comes from the master baker, Nick Malgieri's cookbook, Chocolate: From Simple Cookies To Extravagant Showstoppers (which won the prestigious IACP/Julia Child cookbook award). This recipe makes a very fudgey dense brownie - not at all cake-like. The original recipe stated to cook it for 45 minutes, but I found them to be done after 35 minutes. It also states to let the brownies cool in the pan and cover with plastic wrap until the next day. Additionally, it states to unmold onto a cutting board, turn brownies right-side up and trim away the edges & then slice into 2-inch squares. Well, we couldn't wait until the next day to eat them and I can't even imagine throwing away my favorite part - the edges! NOTE: According to the recipe you can use Bittersweet Chocolate, if desired but I used Semisweet.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
- Sift the cocoa powder through the finest strainer you have, to eliminate any lumps. Thoroughly combine it with 1/4 cup of the sugar. Set aside.
- Pour the egg whites into a clean, dry bowl. Begin by whipping them with a mixer set on medium speed.
- Add the salt and allow the egg whites to whip until they are whip, opaque and begin to hold a soft peak, 2 or 3 minutes. Increase the speed to high and pour in the remaining sugar (1 cup) in a very slow stream. This should take about 2 minutes.
- The egg whites should retain a dull appearance. If they become shiny, you are adding the sugar too quickly, it is melting fast and the meringue is losing air. By the time you have added the sugar (1 cup), the egg whites should be very stiff, but not dry and separated.
- With a rubber spatula, fold in the sugar and cocoa mixture, scattering it over the egg whites in three or four additions. Fold quickly but gently to retain as much air as possible.
- Proceed immediately to the piping or shaping of the meringue before it has a chance to lose air from standing.
- Bake for 30 minutes. The meringue needs to set quickly before the fat in the cocoa breaks down the meringue, making it fall. Rotate the pan so it bakes evenly.
