[CAKE-RECIPE] Fresh Cherry-Almond Cake

2007-09-02 Thread *~Tamara~*
Fresh Cherry-Almond Cake

1 cup whole blanched almonds
1 cup all-purpose flour, plus 2 tablespoons
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar, plus 1 teaspoon 
3 eggs, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups fresh cherries, pitted (about 1 pound)
Confectioner’s sugar, for dusting

Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare a 9-inch springform pan
by buttering and flouring the sides and lining the
bottom with parchment.

Coarsely chop the almonds in a food processor.
Transfer 1/4 cup of the almonds to a bowl and reserve.
Add flour, baking powder, and salt to the remaining
almonds in the food processor and process until
almonds are finely ground. Transfer mixture to a bowl.

In food processor, cream butter with 3/4 cup of the
granulated sugar. Add eggs one at a time, blending
well after each addition. Add extracts.

Add half the flour mixture and pulse to blend, then
add remaining mixture and pulse until smooth. Use a
rubber spatula to scrape batter into the prepared pan,
then add cherries on top in a single even layer.

Mix reserved coarsely-chopped almonds with the
teaspoon of granulated sugar and sprinkle around edge
of cake. Bake in preheated oven until a tester
inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean,
about 45 minutes. 

Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes, then unmold and
allow to cool completely on a wire rack. Transfer to a
serving plate and dust the top with confectioner’s
sugar.

Serves 8.

[CAKE-RECIPE] Almond and Chocolate Flourless Cake

2007-09-02 Thread *~Tamara~*
Almond and Chocolate Flourless Cake

2 tablespoons unsalted butter 
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup blanched almonds
2 tablespoons + 3/4 cup organic sugar
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate
1/2 cup (4 ounces) reduced-fat sour cream 
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 teaspoon almond extract (optional) 
5 egg whites, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon toasted slivered almonds (optional)

Preheat the oven to 350F. Generously coat a 9
springform pan with 2 teaspoons of the butter and dust
with 1 tablespoon of the cocoa (don't tap out the
excess cocoa; leave it in the pan.)

In a food processor, combine the blanched almonds with
2 tablespoons of the sugar. Process until finely
ground.

In the top of a double boiler over barely simmering
water, melt the chocolate and the remaining 4
teaspoons butter, stirring occasionally, until smooth.
Remove from the heat. Place the chocolate mixture in a
large bowl. Add the almond mixture, sour cream, egg
yolks, vanilla extract, almond extract (if using), 1/2
cup of the remaining sugar, and the remaining 2
tablespoons cocoa. Stir until well-blended.

In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on high speed,
beat the egg whites and salt until frothy. Gradually
add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, beating until stiff
glossy peaks form.

Stir one-quarter of the beaten whites into the
chocolate mixture to lighten it. Gently fold in the
remaining whites until no white streaks remain. Place
in the prepared pan. Gently smooth the top.

Bake for 30 minutes, or until the cake has risen, is
dry on the top, and a wooden pick inserted in the
center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Place in the pan on a rack and cool until warm. The
cake will fall dramatically. Loosen the edges of the
ake with a knife and remove the pan sides. Sprinkle
with toasted almonds, if using.

Serves 12

[CAKE-RECIPE] WHOOPIE PIE CAKE

2007-09-02 Thread KIM--tnt ( not so tnt)
WHOOPIE PIE CAKE 

Recipe Source: Becky's Diner

Servings: 8

The Whoopie Pie was invented in Maine back in the 1920s: Like a 
giant, squishy Oreo cookie, it is two discs of chocolate cake 
sandwiching a creamy-sweet filling. One of the most popular desserts 
at Becky's Diner in Portland, Maine, is a cake she makes inspired by 
the Whoopie pie, frosted with a low-cost icing she found while 
browsing through a World War II era cookbook. The marshmallow- soft 
icing gives this cake an evocative old-fashioned character, totally 
unlike a modern sinful boutique gateau. 

Cake:
1 cup margarine
2 cups sugar
2-1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1-1/4 cups buttermilk
3 eggs
9 tablespoons cocoa powder

Icing:
2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup white flour
2 cups granulated sugar
8 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 cup solid vegetable shortening

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Grease 2 9 round cake pans.

Beat together the margarine and sugar. Add flour, baking soda, and 
salt. Mix slowly, gradually adding buttermilk. Beat 2 full minutes. 
Add eggs, then gradually add cocoa, beating another 2 minutes, 
stopping occasionally to scrape the sides of the bowl.

Pour batter into prepared pans and bake about 40 minutes, until 
center springs back when gently pushed.

Cool the cake layers 5 minutes, then remove them from pans and cool 
them completely on a wire rack.

To make the icing, pour the milk into a stainless steel saucepan over 
medium heat. Gradually whisk in flour until a thick paste forms. Do 
not scorch! Remove from stove and cool this mixture in the 
refrigerator.

In a separate bowl, mix the sugar, butter, vanilla, and shortening. 
Add the cooled paste. Whip for at least 3 minutes until creamy. This 
makes enough icing to generously frost a 2-layer cake.
