[CAKE-RECIPE] whipping cream pound cake (Elvis' favorite)

2011-08-12 Thread Deirdre Dee Cox
Not only was it Elvis' favorite pound cake, it's mine as well.  Been 
making this for years, a fine textured cake.  Makes a good cake for 
those of you who do cake carving.  I make this  at Thanksgiving to 
look like a turkey (with little marzipan potatoes  carrots around 
it)

   WHIPPING CREAM POUND CAKE (AKA Elvis Presley's Favorite Cake)

Recipe By :
Serving Size  : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories: !! Church BakingCakes - Bundt/Tube
 Cakes - Pound

   Amount  Measure   Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    
   3   cups  sugar
  1/2 pound  butter -- softned
   7 eggs -- room temperature
   2 1/2   cups  flour -- sifted twice
  1/2   cup  corn starch
   1cup  whipping cream -- 1/2 pint heavy cream
   2Tablespoons  vanilla extract*

Butter and flour a 10-inch tube pan.  Thoroughly cream together sugar 
and butter. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition 
(about 1 minute after each).  Add vanilla  whipping cream  corn 
starch.  Beat for several minutes.  Add half of flour  gently fold 
into batter.  When flour is incorporated, add remaining flour  
again, gently fold into batter.  Pour batter into prepared pan. Set 
in COLD oven and turn heat to 350 degrees. Bake 60 to 70 minutes, 
until a sharp knife inserted in cake comes out clean.  Cool in pan 5 
minutes. Remove from pan and cool thoroughly.

*Or use 1 TBSP vanilla  1 TBSP a blend of other flavors such as 
lemon, almond, orange, brandy, rum, coconut, coffee, etc.

If you have a habit of dropping your cakes on the counter to take air 
bubbles out of the batter DON'T -- that will deflate the cake.

A very fine grained but lighter than usual pound cake.  I put a pan 
of water in the bottom of the oven to keep cakes moist, this 
increases baking time by about 10-15 minutes if you choose to do 
this. (I would encourage it)

Makes a very nice basic cake.  In the summer I serve this with 
sweetened pureed strawberries, in the winter with Chocolate Cream 
Cheese Frosting -- although the cake is rich  only a sprinkling of 
powdered sugar is all that is needed.

  Carol Deptolla's Mojito Mousse Icebox Cake - MJS

Recipe By :Milwaukee Journal Sentinal Best Recipes of 2007
Serving Size  : 11Preparation Time :0:00
Categories: !! BlueRibbon   Cakes - Other

   Amount  Measure   Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    
   1 3/4   cups  sugar (divided)
   1cup  cold water (divided)
   4   cups  packed fresh mint leaves
   2   cups  shortbread crumbs (about 8 ounces cookies -- crushed)
  1/3   cup  unsalted butter -- (5 1/3 tablespoons) melted
   2tablespoons  unflavored gelatin -- (two 1/4-ounce envelopes)
  1/2   cup  fresh lime juice (from about 2 large limes)
  1/4   cup  light rum
   2tablespoons  lime zest
   1 1/2   cups  whipping cream
 Mint sprigs or candied lime peel for garnish

Makes 10 to 12 servings

First, make the mint syrup: Put 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in medium
saucepan. Chop or tear mint leaves into coarse pieces and add to pan. Bring
mixture to a boil and let it cook briefly until sugar is dissolved.

Remove from heat and let stand an hour or so to steep. Pour through a
strainer into a small bowl, discarding leaves. (This can be done several
days in advance; refrigerate syrup.)

While syrup steeps, make crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter bottom
and side of 9-inch springform pan.

In medium bowl, combine shortbread crumbs and melted butter. Pat evenly over
bottom of pan. Bake in preheated oven until golden and fragrant, about 10
minutes. Remove from oven; let cool completely on rack.

Now for the mousse: Put a large bowl and the beaters for an electric mixer
in the freezer to chill. Put remaining 1/2 cup cold water in a small bowl
and sprinkle gelatin over it; let it stand 4 or 5 minutes to soften. Put
lime juice, remaining 3/4 cup sugar and the 1/2 cup mint syrup in medium
saucepan over medium heat.

Stir and let it come to a boil, to dissolve sugar. Whisk in gelatin to
dissolve. Remove from heat, pour into large bowl, stir in rum and set aside..

In a larger bowl, empty three trays' worth of ice cubes and add some cold
water. Set the bowl with the hot gelatin mixture in the cold water bath and
let it stand, whisking mixture occasionally, until it's the consistency of
egg whites, about 10 minutes. Whisk in lime zest. Don't let mixture
solidify.

While gelatin chills, beat whipping cream until stiff peaks form. As soon as
gelatin is ready, stir in a large dollop of the whipped cream to lighten it,
then gently fold in remaining whipped cream.

Pour mousse into the springform pan, smoothing top. Refrigerate overnight to
let it firm up.

To serve, run a thin knife around pan to loosen cake from side, then release
and remove the ring.

Set cake on a serving plate and garnish with mint springs or candied lime
peel and cut into wedges. Serve cold.

   Amount  Measure   Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    
 === for the pastry cream ===
   15 large  egg yolks
   2 1/4   cups  cornstarch
   10  cups  heavy cream
   6   cups  sugar
   3 vanilla beans -- split and scraped
 === for the cake ===
   1cup  milk
   8tablespoons  butter -- plus
   8  teaspoons  butter
   32eggs
   8   cups  sugar -- plus
   8tablespoons  sugar
   4   cups  flour
   4  teaspoons  baking powder
   4  teaspoons  salt
   4  teaspoons  vanilla
 === to finish ===
   6 pounds  bananas -- peeled, and
 cut crosswise into 1/2 slices
   10egg whites
   1cup  sugar

For the pastry:  In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg yolks, 1 1/2 
cups sugar, cornstarch and 4 cups of the heavy cream.  Whisk to 
blend.  Set aside. Combine the remaining 6 cups of cream, 4 1/2 cups 
of the sugar, and the vanilla in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan 
over medium heat.  Whisk to dissolve the sugar and bring to a gentle 
boil, about 10 minutes.  Slowly add the egg yolk mixture, whisking 
constantly until it thickens, about 5 minutes.  Be forewarned: the 
mixture will break, don't be alarmed. Pour the mixture into a large 
bowl.  Press a piece of plastic wrap over the surface of the pastry 
cream to prevent a skin from forming.  Let cool completely at room 
temperature. When cooled, remove the vanilla bean and pour the 
mixture into the bowl of an electric mixer with a wire whip.  Beat at 
medium speed to combine the mixture.  If the mixture will not 
combine, warm another cup of heavy cream and slowly add it to the 
mixture.  Whip until you have a thick and creamy custard. For the 
cake:  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  In a small saucepan, heat 1 
cup of the milk and 8 tablespoons of the butter together.  Using an 
electric mixer with a wire whip, combine the 32 eggs and 8 cups of 
sugar together.  Beat on medium-high speed for about 8 minutes, or 
until the mixture is pale yellow, thick and has tripled in 
volume.  With the machine running, slowly add the heated milk. In a 
mixing bowl, sift 4 cups flour, 4 teaspoons baking powder and 4 
teaspoons salt together.  Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture 
and mix thoroughly so that there are no lumps and the mixture is 
smooth.  Fold in the vanilla. Grease 4 (1/2-sheet) pans with 8 
teaspoons of the butter.  Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons of 
sugar.  Pour the cake batter evenly into the pans and bake for about 
25 minutes, or until the cakes spring back when touched.  Cool for 
about 2 minutes.  Using a thin knife, loosen the edges of the cakes, 
and then flip onto a wire rack. To assemble:  Spread 1/2 cup of the 
custard over one cake.  Arrange 1/3 of the banana slices, crowding 
them close together, over the custard.  Place a second cake on top of 
the bananas.  Next, spread 2 cups of the custard over the 
cake.  Arrange another third of the banana slices over the 
custard.  Top with another cake.  Spread another 2 cups of the 
custard over the cake.  Arrange the remaining third of bananas over 
the custard.  Top with the remaining cake.  Cover with plastic wrap 
and chill for at least 4 hours. To finish:  Whip the egg whites and 
sugar, in two batches, to stiff peaks.  Remove the cake from the 
refrigerator and discard the plastic wrap.  Spread the whipped egg 
whites evenly over the sides and top of the cake.  Using a small 
blowtorch, torch the sides and top of the cake evenly.  Slice the 
cake into individual servings. This recipe yields 20 to 25 servings.
