BAKED ALASKA
Steps:
- Lift the One Bowl Brownies out of the pan using the overhanging foil. Use a 9-inch stainless steel bowl to cut out a circle; reserve the circle.
- Completely line the same 9-inch bowl with plastic wrap, leaving a 6-inch overhang around the edge. Scoop the softened ice cream into the bowl and use a rubber spatula to smooth it down. Carefully lift the brownie round with a flat spatula and place on top of the ice cream. If it breaks, that's ok, just use the brownie pieces to fill in the gaps. Fold the plastic wrap over the top of the brownie and place in the freezer until solid, 4 hours. Place a marble slab in the freezer to chill. (If you don't have a marble slab, place a baking sheet lined with foil in the freezer; it works just as well.)
- When ready to serve, place a small saucepan of water over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Add the egg whites to the bowl of a stand mixer, and then place the bowl over the simmering liquid, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the hot water. Whisk until the egg whites are frothy, then add the sugar a tablespoon at a time, whisking well after each addition. Whisk in the cream of tartar. Keep whisking the eggs over the heat until the sugar has dissolved and the egg whites are warm, 2 to 3 minutes. Move the bowl to the stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat until stiff, glossy peaks form, 8 to 10 minutes. Beat in the vanilla and mix until combined.
- Remove the bowl with the ice cream from the freezer. Unwrap the top of the plastic wrap, pop the molded ice cream/brownie out of the bowl and place it brownie-side down on the chilled marble slab. Remove the plastic wrap. Completely cover the ice cream and brownie with the meringue, making sure to seal the edges on the chilled slab. Bring the baked Alaska out to your guests, set it on the table and use a kitchen torch to brown the meringue!
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F; line a 13-by-9-inch cake pan with foil and leave a 2-inch overhang on all sides. Spray with nonstick spray.
- Add the butter to a medium glass bowl and melt in the microwave. Add the cocoa, granulated sugar and brown sugar, and stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the eggs one at a time, stirring well until mixed in completely after each addition. Add the flour, salt and vanilla extract and again stir vigorously until the batter is well combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth down and even the top. Bake until a cake tester inserted in the center of the brownie comes out clean with just a few crumbs, 30 minutes. Let cool completely.

- Remove the bowl from the freezer, and scoop the strawberry ice cream onto the frozen vanilla layer. Using a spatula, smooth the strawberry ice cream to form an even layer. Freeze for 1 hour, or until frozen. After the strawberry layer is frozen, repeat with chocolate ice cream.
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
- In a bowl, add the eggs and sugar and whisk until well combined. Add 1 egg and mix until combined. Repeat with remaining eggs, mixing after each egg is added.

Steps:
- Lightly spray a 5 x 9-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray and line with plastic wrap. Fill a third of the bread pan with a thick layer of strawberry ice cream, using the back of the spoon to press it into an even layer. Fill another third of the pan with a generous layer of vanilla ice cream and smooth the surface. Make a third layer, filling pan to the top with the raspberry sorbet. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and freeze until the ice cream is solid, at least 3 hours.
- Remove from the freezer and allow to sit for 10 minutes at room temperature. Run a knife around the edge of the pan. Invert a cookie sheet over the pan and, holding the pan and platter firmly together, turn them over and lift off the bread pan and the plastic to unmold the ice cream. If the ice cream won't come out, briefly dip the pan into a large bowl of hot water and repeat the process. Put the platter with the ice cream back in the freezer to chill while you make the meringue.
- FOR MERINGUE:.
- Whip the egg whites on medium speed until they begin to foam. Add the cream of tartar and 1 tablespoon of the sugar and continue to whip the egg whites at medium-low speed until they form soft, slightly drooping peaks when the beaters are lifted out. Turn the speed to medium-high and continue to whip the egg whites as you gradually add the superfine sugar a tablespoon at a time. Beat until the meringue is shiny and holds stiff, upright peaks when the beaters are lifted out.
- As soon as the meringue is ready, remove the ice cream from the freezer and use an icing spatula or the back of a large spoon to spread the entire batch of meringue evenly over the ice cream. Return the dessert to the freezer once more until serving time.
- FOR SERVING:.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Remove the Alaska from the freezer and place the pan in the oven for no more than 5 minutes, until the Alaska is nicely caramelized and browned.
- Warm a metal serving knife and cut the dessert into wedges or slices, dip the knife into a glass of hot water before each cut. Serve with raspberry sauce if desired.

BLACK HOLE BAKED ALASKA
Space is dangerous, but also beautiful... and NOW, thanks to this next recipe, it can be delicious as well! So I'm going to get real with you, I got a little sneaky with this recipe... I've made about a gazillion homemade chocolate cakes in my life, but this time I just wasn't in the mood. So I opted for a store-bought fudge bundt cake! Since the recipe calls for freezing the cake, I think the store bought version actually tastes better ':/ Confessions aside, there was no cheating on the showstopper of a dessert. It's just a simple decorated disc of heavenly chocolate resting on top of this traditional Baked Alaska like a halo from space!

Steps:
- For the Black-Hole Chocolate Disc:.
- In addition to the chocolate melts, you will need an airbrushing machine and edible colors, as well as parchment paper.
- Melt chocolate in two pots until completely liquid. Place a circle of parchment on a turn table and pour the darker shade first. Pour the remaining color on top in design of your choosing and use an offset, narrow spatula to create a galaxy design by making spiraled swiping motions from the inside out. Once done, allow to set in a cool room for one hour. Once the chocolate is set, remove from parchment sheet and rest on something with a hole in the center and using a hot blade, cut out a hole in the center. Smooth edges with your finger.
- Mix various galactic colors in an airbrush machine and paint your black hole. I made mine darkest on the outer edges and lightest near the center.
- For the Meringue:.
- In a stand mixer, beat egg whites, salt and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Drizzle in sugar and vanilla and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Cut off the top of the fudge bundt cake and scoop a layer of your chosen ice cream on top of the ring making sure to leave the hole in the middle. Coat with meringue and torch. Once done chill in freezer until ready to serve. just before serving place the chocolate black hole topper onto the frozen dessert. Serve.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter and line a 20cm cake tin. Beat together the butter and sugar using a hand whisk or freestanding mixer, for 5 mins until pale and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla and eggs, then fold through the flour, lemon zest and milk. Spoon the mixture into the tin, smooth over and bake for 18-20 mins until golden and firm to the touch. Leave to cool completely before starting the meringue.
- Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks in a clean bowl, then add the sugar 1 tbsp at a time while whisking continuously, until you have a thick, glossy mixture that holds its shape when the beaters are lifted away from the bowl. Quickly beat in the vinegar.
- Remove the ice cream from the freezer 10 mins before you assemble to soften slightly. Place the sponge on a serving plate. Spread the jam over the top of the sponge in an even layer. Scoop balls of the ice cream into a mound in the middle of the sponge, leaving a 1-2cm gap of sponge around the edge. Gently smooth the side and top of the ice cream with a palette knife. Spoon and swirl the meringue around the outside of the ice cream and cake base with a large spoon. Use a blow torch to evenly brown the outside of the meringue, if you have one. Cut into wedges to serve.
