WASHINGTON PIE (RUSSIAN VERSION) (CUSTARD FILLED CAKE)
I don't know why it's called pie. A bit like Boston cream pie, this is actually a layer cake. The layers are soaked with wine, a rich vanilla custard is spread bewteen the layers, and the whole thing is topped with meringue.

TIRAMISU WITH THREE LAYERED SPONGECAKE (VANILLA CUSTARD W/CAKE)
This treasured recipe is unlike any I'd ever seen, but had tasted in fancy restaurants. It has a few extra steps, but once you've had this perfect ratio of custard (missing in most recipes), sponge cake, and coffee, you will never go back! Recipe from Mercedes Zezza, Naples from Richard Sax's Classic Home Desserts. Note: the directions are long but specific to ensure a perfect dessert.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Lightly butter 8 or 9 inch springform pan.
- Line bottom pan with wax paper(lightly buttered and floured) cut to fit.
- In a bowl, beat the egg whites with the salt until they form soft peaks, and gradually beat in the sugar.
- Beat until whites are just stiff, no longer.
- In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks and vanilla until blended.
- Fold in about 1/4 of the beaten whites.
- Pour the egg yolk mixture into the beaten whites.
- Sprinkle the sifted flour and cornstarch through a strainer over the egg whites.
- Fold together thoroughly, without over mixing.
- Spread the batter in the prepared pan, tilting gently so the batter spreads to the edges.
- Bake until the edges are set and the cake is golden, about 25-30 minutes.
- Cool the cake in the pan for a few minutes and invert the cake onto a wire rack, peeling carefully the paper.
- Let cool completely on rack.
- Wash your pan since you will be using it again.
- Custard:.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, scald all but two tablespoons of the milk with the sugar, stirring until sugar dissolves.
- In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with the reserved cold milk and the flour.
- Gradually pour about 1/2 of the hot milk into the yolk mixture and whisk constantly.
- Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it comes to a boil.
- Boil (keep stirring) for 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and strain the custard (if necessary) into a clean bowl.
- Whisk in the butter, rum or cognac, and vanilla.
- Cover with wax paper or plastic wrap pressed directly on the surface to prevent a "skin" from forming.
- Refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours.
- In a bowl, lighten the mascarpone by folding it over itself a few times with a rubber spatula and mashing gently, if necessary.
- Cover and chill until you are ready to assemble the cake.
- Assembling the cake:.
- With a serrated knife, cut the cake horizontally into 3 equal layers.
- Place the bottom layer in the springform pan.
- Drizzle and brush it with part of the espresso, soaking it generously.
- Gently top the cake with 1/3 of the custard.
- Repeat with another layer of cake, more espresso, and more custard.
- For the top layer, moisten the cut surface of the cake with espresso and invert it, browned side up in pan.
- Gently spread with the remaining custard, smoothing the surface.
- Sift some of the cocoa in an even layer over the top of the cake.
- Refrigerate for at least one hour so the cake will be well chilled and the layers will set.
- Sprinkle a little more cocoa over the top before serving in wedges.

KATE'S HEALTHY SPICED PLUM UPSIDE DOWN CAKE WITH VANILLA CUSTARD
Cinnamon, nutmeg, and orange zest enhance the flavor of plums. Applesauce is used in the cake batter instead of butter to counteract the use of butter in the Caramelized Plum Topping. Vanilla Custard adds a cool, creamy contrast to the warm Spiced Cake. This is not a super sweet dessert. Just sugary enough to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Steps:
- HINT: The plums do not need to be ripe. Although my plums refused to ripen, they still baked up to be sweet and soft because the heat caramelized their natural sugars.
- NOTE: Vanilla Custard should be made ahead of time and chilled in the refrigerator. Caramelized Plum Topping and Spiced Cake should be made right before serving.
- CARAMELIZED PLUM TOPPING: Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Grease sides only (not bottom) of 10 inch cast-iron skillet. If you do not have a cast-iron skillet, you can use a 10 inch cake pan or a 9" by 9" square pan. Set aside.
- Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan. Stir in ½ cup brown sugar. Spread in bottom of prepared skillet or pan. Arrange plum slices slightly overlapping in a pretty spiral pattern working from outer rim to center. If using blueberries, arrange plum slices first, and then arrange one ring of blueberries around the outer rim of the pan. Arrange the remaining blueberries in a circle in the center of the pan filling in the gaps. Sprinkle a even layer of nuts over fruit. Set aside.
- SPICED UPSIDE DOWN CAKE: In a medium bowl, sift together whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, ¼ cup sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat milk, applesauce, eggs, vanilla, and orange zest.
- Stir flour mixture into egg mixture just until combined. Pour batter over fruit and nuts. Let rest for 5 minutes to allow baking powder to activate. Bake at 350F degrees for 40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from oven. Let rest for 5 minutes to allow cake to absorb juices. Invert onto a platter that is at least 12 inches in diameter. Use a platter with raised sides if you have one, so that the juices are not spilled and wasted. Do not pour off excess juices, the cake will absorb the juices as it cools. Serve warm topped with Vanilla Custard, vanilla ice cream, or whipped cream.
- VANILLA CUSTARD: Mix 1/3 cup sugar, cornstarch, nutmeg, and salt in medium saucepan. Gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, scraping corners of pan with spatula, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute.
- Gradually whisk at least half of hot mixture into egg yolks. Then, whisk back into hot mixture in saucepan. Boil and stir 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla until you cannot smell alcohol. Pour into a bowl. Press plastic wrap directly on Vanilla Custard to prevent tough layer from forming. Refrigerate about 3 hours or until chilled.
- NOTE: Leftover Spiced Plum Upside Down Cake and Vanilla Custard should be stored in the refrigerator and may be eaten warm or cold.
