Crepe Cake


Always a fan of ricotta cheesecake.  Basically, no cake is safe around me.

Just wanted to update the cake thread.

My wife finally made a guineas cake.

Omg so good.

We didn't have the stuff for the cream cheese frosting. Instead she just sprinkled some powdered cocoa on top. Well do it right next time. I think the cc frosting would have been better.

Recipe:

CHOCOLATE GUINNESS CAKE
Time: 1 hour 15 minutes

For the cake:
Butter for pan
1 cup Guinness stout
10 tablespoons (1 stick plus 2 tablespoons) unsalted butter
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 cups superfine sugar
3/4 cup sour cream
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

For the topping:
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
1/2 cup heavy cream.

1. For the cake: heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch springform pan and line with parchment paper. In a large saucepan, combine Guinness and butter. Place over medium-low heat until butter melts, then remove from heat. Add cocoa and superfine sugar, and whisk to blend.
2. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, eggs and vanilla; mix well. Add to Guinness mixture. Add flour and baking soda, and whisk again until smooth. Pour into buttered pan, and bake until risen and firm, 45 minutes to one hour. Place pan on a wire rack and cool completely in pan.
3. For the topping: Using a food processor or by hand, mix confectioners' sugar to break up lumps. Add cream cheese and blend until smooth. Add heavy cream, and mix until smooth and spreadable.
4. Remove cake from pan and place on a platter or cake stand. Ice top of cake only, so that it resembles a frothy pint of Guinness.

Yield: One 9-inch cake (12 servings).

I love a good Carrot Cake, followed closely by Red Velvet Cake

someday I will find the ultimate Butterscotch Cake or its recipe

when my daughter was much younger every now and then we would hit the local French Bakery...buy a cheesecake with a pair of plastic forks to go

and drive around talking/bonding/getting caught up while devouring it

we would find a public trash receptacle and throw the evidence away

like a pair of rummies getting rid of their empties

head back home and pass out from the sugar overload

when I head down to NC to visit

she still insists I bring one with me from that bakery
This is an insult to the Pez community

In the spirit of "hiding the evidence so people don't make fun of you for being a fatty," my friend Nadir sent this:

In a coffee mug, mix:
‎-4. tbsps sugar or brown sugar (or splenda)
-4 tbsp flour
-4 tbsp milk (or Almond milk ftw!)
-1 tbsp vegetable oil (or cooking oil, whtev, I'm not a friggin chef)
-1 egg
...-some cocoa powder, or cinnamon, or vanilla extract, or caramel or whatever tickles your fancy (I'm gonna try coffee).
-Microwave for 3/3.5 mins in a mug (the larger the better since it rises)

...and then *BAM* herpes. I mean Cake for one!! It's a bit spongier than baked but it totally works, plus it's just for you so no one can judge you!!

You should all be ashamed of yourselves!

No one mentioned Tiramisu!!!  Especially when served in Italy with a hot cup of Espresso!

My wife makes kick-ass Tiramisu (recipe from our Italian neighbor) whenever she can find the fresh mascarpone.

I have a family recipe that kicks ass, containing good old black coffee. Is good.  :)
