1 cup heavy cream
8-ounce bar semi-sweet chocolate
3 bananas
1/2 cup sugar
2 Tbsp. (plus a dash) fortified wine

Steps:

  • Instructions for cake:
  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan. Cream margarine, butter, and cream cheese, with sugar until fluffy and well combined. Add salt and vanilla, and mix well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour and mix well. Pour batter into pan. Place in a cold oven and bake at for 1 1/2 hours, or until done. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; if it comes out clean, it's ready. Cool in pan, then turn out and slice into half-inch-thick slices. Preheat grill pan to medium heat. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter and brush lightly on both sides of cake slices. Grill cake slices, turning once, until lightly grill-marked and slightly softened, about 2 minutes total.
  • Instructions for Bananas with Chocolate Sauce:
  • In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Pour 1 cup heavy cream into another small saucepan and turn on the burner to medium-high. Scald the cream. Break up the semi-sweet chocolate bar into a medium mixing bowl. When the cream is hot, pour it over the chocolate and sets the bowl aside. In a large skillet, melt the other 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Peel 3 bananas, slice them and place in another mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup sugar to the bananas, gently toss them and place them in the buttered skillet. When the bananas are golden-brown, add a dash of fortified wine and cook until it evaporates. Whisk the chocolate cream mixture until smooth, then add 2 tablespoons fortified wine, mixing well.
  • Assembly:
  • Put a cake slice on each dessert plate or parfait cup, top with a spoonful of the bananas, and then another cake slice and another spoonful of bananas. Drizzle the top of each dessert with the chocolate wine sauce.

Categories     Cake     Dairy     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Spring     Gourmet     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Serves 20

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/3 cups self-rising cake flour
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
8 oz cream cheese
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
6 large eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour a 10-inch (3-quart) bundt pan, knocking out excess.
  • Sift flour. Beat together butter and cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add sugar, flour, and vanilla and beat on low speed until just combined (mixture will appear dry and crumbly). Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition (mixture will form a batter as eggs are added).
  • Pour batter into pan, smoothing top. Bake in middle of oven until golden and a tester comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool cake in pan on a rack 15 minutes, then invert onto a rack and cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the cake batter come together more smoothly and evenly.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Sift the flour before measuring it: This will help ensure that you have the correct amount of flour and that it is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the cake rises evenly and does not sink in the center.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Aunt Faye's Pound Cake is a classic recipe that is sure to please everyone. With its moist, tender crumb and rich flavor, this cake is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are serving it for dessert or as a snack, this cake is sure to be a hit.
