Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. SEMIFREDDO:
  2. Zest the tangerines and squeeze them. Reserve 3/4 cup juice and set the zest aside.
  3. Place the chocolate, cocoa powder, 2 tbsp. sugar, and tangerine juice in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. The mixture will bubble and then begin to thicken; continue cooking until it is almost the consistency of pudding, about 2 minutes.
  4. Remove from the heat and stir in the tangerine zest and amaretto. Allow the mixture to cool for 15 minutes and transfer it to a large mixing bowl.
  5. In the bowl, use a mixer to beat together the egg yolks and the remaining 1/4 cup sugar on medium speed until light-colored and thick, about 2 minutes.
  6. Fold the egg yolk into the cooled chocolate mixture.
  7. Fold in the chocolate wafer crumbs.
  8. Ina separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the mascarpone at high speed until it is thick and softly peaking.
  9. Gently fold the cream mixture into the chocolate mixture to complete the Semifeddo mix.
  10. Pour the semifreddo mixture into a loaf pan or another freezable container and press plastic wrap on the surface. Freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm.
  11. CHOCOLATE – GRAND MARNIER SAUCE
  12. Zest the tangerine and squeeze it until you have 1 teaspoon zest and 2 tablespoons juice.
  13. Place the chocolate and butter in a medium bowl.
  14. Pour in the boiling water and allow the ingredients to sit for 30 seconds, then whisk them together until smooth.
  15. Whisk in the heavy cream, corn syrup, tangerine zest, Grand Marnier, and tangerine juice.
  16. Remove frozen Semifreddo from freezer and unmold the whole semifreddo by dipping the pan in hot water and inverting it over a plate and then slice it into portions with a hot thin-bladed knife. Drizzle each serving with some of the warm sauce and sprinkle with chopped pistachios.
