What Is More Italian than a Cheescake Recipe? Just for Halloween!

Pumpkin cheesecake
Kelly Johnston
Serves 12 to 16

Here is a cake that is decadent but delicious and well worth the calories. Besides, it is easy to make. Is there a more perfect fall dessert?

INGREDIENTS


• 4 1/2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
• 4 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
• 5 eggs
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 can (16 ounces) unseasoned pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
• Pinch of salt
• Sifted confectioners’ sugar, for serving

DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Use 1/2 tablespoon of the butter to grease the sides of a 9-inch springform pan.

Mix the crumbs with the granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of the cloves in a bowl. Use a fork to stir in the remaining melted butter to coat the crumbs. Press the crumbs in the bottom and about an inch up the sides of the baking pan.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese at medium speed using the paddle attachment until smooth and creamy. Gradually beat in the 1 cup light brown sugar until the mixture is smooth. At low speed, beat in the eggs one at a time until just blended. Beat in the flour, the pumpkin, and the remaining seasonings. Mix well.

Pour the filling into the graham cracker crust.

Bake about 1 hour 15 minutes. The cake may crack a bit. Turn the oven off and open the oven door a little. Let the cheesecake sit in the oven for 30 minutes. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and continue cooling on a wire rack for 30 to 45 minutes, then refrigerate covered with foil. Before serving, cover the cracks on the top with a dusting of confectioners’ sugar.

Note: If you use canned pumpkin, be sure it is unsweetened and unseasoned. Plain frozen butternut squash or homemade butternut squash puree are two alternatives.

Serve in style: The easiest way to cut slices of cheesecake is to have a tall glass of cold water alongside and to dip the knife in it after each cut.

Pumpkin risotto with toasted almonds



The Scotto Family
4 servings

INGREDIENTS


Pumpkins

• 4 small pumpkins, weighing 2 pounds or less, tops removed, insides scraped and deseeded
Risotto

• 6 cups chicken stock
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 small onion, finely diced
• 1/2 cup white wine
• 2 cups Arborio rice
• 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds; set aside 1/4 cup for garnish
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bring chicken stock to a boil in a medium saucepan, then reduce the heat and keep at a bare simmer.

2. Warm the olive oil in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and wine and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the onions are translucent and the white wine is reduced. Add the rice and cook, stirring for about 3 minutes, until every grain is coated the liquid.

3. Place pumpkins in preheated oven.

4. Add 1 cup of the chicken stock until the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding stock, about ½ cup at a time, stirring frequently and making sure all the liquid is absorbed before adding more stock.

5. Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the butter and Parmesan cheese and toasted almonds.

6. Remove pumpkins from oven, fill with risotto, top with almonds and serve immediately.

CALZONE RECIPE WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Here is an italian classic reccipe. We love this one!

1 deep-dish pizza dough
1 tablespoon oil from sun-dried tomatoes
1 medium onion -- finely chopped
1 clove garlic -- minced
or pressed
1 cup (8 oz) ricotta cheese
1/4 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/4 pound sliced prosciutto or dry
salami -- cut into strips
2 cups (1/2 lb) shredded whole-
milk mozzarella cheese
cornmeal (for baking sheet)
olive oil|

1. Prepare Deep-Dish Pizza Dough and let it rise.
2. While dough rises,
prepare filling. In a medium frying pan heat tomato oil over moderate
heat; add onion and cook, stirring often, until soft but not browned. Mix
in garlic, then remove from heat.
3. In a medium bowl mix ricotta cheese
with dried tomatoes and parsley; stir in cooked onion mixture.
4. Divide dough into two equal portions. Roll each half out on a floured surface to
a 12-inch circle. Spread half of the ricotta filling over half of each
circle of dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch margin.
5. Sprinkle half of each circle with half of the prosciutto strips and 1 cup of the mozzarella
cheese. Fold circles in halves over filling, moistening and pinching edges
together (or pressing with tines of a fork) to seal.
6. Preheat oven to 450~ F. Sprinkle a large, greased baking sheet lightly with cornmeal.
Place calzone well apart on prepared baking sheet. Let rise.
(12 to 15 minutes). Brush tops lightly with olive oil, serve hot.
