My chocolaty triangles layered with raspberry jam are a must during the holiday season. The cakelike bars look festive, and one batch goes a long way.—Mary Ann Lee, Clifton Park, New York
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs, separated
- 1-1/2 cups butter, softened
- 1-1/2 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled slightly
- 3 ounces white baking chocolate, melted and cooled slightly
- 1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted
- White baking chocolate shavings
Directions
- Place egg whites in a large bowl; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°. Line bottoms of 2 greased matching 13x9-in. baking pans with parchment; grease papers.
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes.<div><span style="font-size: 1rem;"> Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla. Stir in flour.</span><div> With clean beaters, beat egg whites on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Fold into batter. Transfer half of the batter to another bowl. Fold melted unsweetened chocolate into 1 bowl; spread into a prepared pan. Fold melted white chocolate into remaining batter; spread into second prepared pan.
- Bake 12-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes. Invert onto wire racks. Remove parchment; cool completely.
- Transfer chocolate layer to a baking sheet lined with a large piece of plastic wrap. Spread jam over top; place white chocolate layer over jam. Wrap securely with plastic wrap. Set a cutting board or heavy baking pan over top to flatten layers. Let stand at room temperature 3-4 hours. (Or, refrigerate overnight and return to room temperature before continuing.)
- Unwrap cake; place on a cutting board. Spread top with melted chocolate chips. Top with white chocolate shavings. Let stand until set. Trim edges with a knife. Cut into 24 squares; cut squares diagonally in half.</div></div>
