Recipes for Artichoke Tart & Chocolate Torte Needed!

[wadesgirl]

Does anyone have the recipes for Artichoke and Sundried Tomato Tart or Chocolate Peanut Butter Torte typed up? I have a future host requesting these and I figured I would ask here before I typed them up myself. Thanks!

The first one sounds really good! Answer is no, but I'll be looking for that one!

 

[wadesgirl]

I think they are both from the current stoneware cookbook. I know the peanut butter one is but haven't looked for the other one. I'm also just considering scanning it and emailing the image to her!

 

[janetupnorth]

Thanks - I'll have to look through my books again!

Artichoke & Sun-Dried Tomato Tart
(The Pampered Chef, Stoneware Inspirations Cookbook, pg 17)
The crowning touch of this savory appetizer is the flaky, crispy phyllo shell.

Prep time: 15 minutes Bake time: 28-30 minutes

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 egg
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 jar (6 ounces) marinated artichokes, drained and patted dry
1/3 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and patted dry
2 tablespoons snipped fresh basil leaves
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese
1 garlic clove, pressed
¼ cup (1 ounce) grated fresh Parmesan cheese, divided
8 sheets (9 x 14 inches) thawed, frozen phyllo dough
Nonstick cooking spray
1 large plum tomato, sliced
Additional snipped basil (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 375ºF. In Classic Batter Bowl, whisk cream cheese, egg and flour until smooth using Stainless Whisk. Chop artichokes using Food Chopper. Snip sun-dried tomatoes and basil using Kitchen Shears. Add mozzarella cheese and garlic pressed with Garlic Press to cream cheese mixture; mix well.
2. Grate Parmesan cheese using Deluxe Cheese Grater; set aside 2 tablespoons for later use. Unroll phyllo. Lay one sheet of phyllo on Large Grooved Cutting Board and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle with one-fourth of the remaining Parmesan cheese. Place second sheet of phyllo dough over first, pressing sheets together to seal. Place phyllo sheets on Small Round Stone (edges will hang off stone). Repeat three more times, arranging phyllo sheets in and overlapping staggered pattern on baking stone.
3. Spoon cream cheese mixture onto center of phyllo and spread to within ½ inch of edge of baking stone using Small Spreader. Slice tomato using Ultimate Slice & Grate fitted with v-shaped blade; arrange in an overlapping circular pattern around edge of filling. Sprinkle with reserved 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. Carefully lift edges of phyllo sheets up against edge of filling. Lightly spray phyllo with nonstick cooking spray. Bake 28-30 minutes or until phyllo is golden brown and filling is set in center. Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes. Garnish with additional snipped basil, if desired. Cut into wedges using Utility Knife; serve warm or at room temperature.

Yield: 12 servings

Chocolate-Peanut Butter Torte
Mayonnaise and applesauce provide moisture and tenderness in this dramatic cake.

Did you have those or type them up?! Thanks a bunch!

If you don't own these particular stoneware pieces, or others that other recipes call for, is there another piece that could be used instead?

I didn't type them up; my typing's way too slow LOL I already had them on my 'puter. Glad I could help!

Wadesgirl (sorry I don't know your name) I usually check on the PC recipe websites I frequent if I don't have it on my computer when somebody requests one. Then of course I save it and have it for next time. I now have 300 odd PC recipes in a folder on my laptop (not that I'll EVER get to making all of them)

 

[wadesgirl]

I have a lot of product recipe collections but not very many specific recipes. I can find a lot of them on here but couldn't find these two particular ones.

One of the consultants on my team just shared this website with me - thought it might help in the future:
