Bakery Shop Frosting image

This is a rich, but not overly sweet, frosting often favored by bakery shops because of its durability. It holds its shape (seemingly forever) and freezes well. It is very fluffy, good for filling in cracks and uneven spaces and for covering large areas on a cake.

CHOCOLATE-CHERRY CAKE



Chocolate-Cherry Cake image

Topped with a pompadour of airy whipped cream frosting - which tastes comfortingly of hot cocoa - this cake is reminiscent of Black Forest gâteau but with more chocolaty depth. The cake's dark chocolate flavor is enhanced by Dutch-processed cocoa powder, which produces a much deeper, Oreo-like chocolaty taste than natural unsweetened cocoa powder. A glossy, cherry-red layer of preserves keeps the crumb moist and tender, and a splash of almond extract evokes the aromatic bittersweetness of kirsch or maraschino cherries (cherries are, after all, in the same family as almonds). Don't forget the actual cherries on top; they'll make you happy.

Time 1h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup/118 milliliters extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing pan
1 1/4 cups/250 grams granulated sugar
1 cup/128 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 cup/56 grams Dutch-processed cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 large eggs
3/4 cup/180 milliliters whole milk
1 teaspoon pure almond extract
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt or 3/4 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
1 cup/305 grams cherry preserves (see Tip)
1/4 cup/50 grams granulated sugar
1/4 cup/28 grams Dutch-processed cocoa powder
Pinch of kosher salt
1/4 cup boiling hot water
2 cups/473 milliliters cold heavy whipping cream
Fresh red cherries, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare the cake: Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan with olive oil.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cocoa powder and baking powder until evenly distributed and no lumps remain. To a separate large bowl, add the 1/2 cup oil, eggs, milk, almond extract and salt and whisk until smooth, at least 30 seconds. Gently whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until the last streak of flour disappears.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and tap gently against the counter to pop excess air bubbles. Bake until a skewer or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan.
  • Microwave the cherry preserves in a small bowl in 30-second intervals or in a small saucepan over medium heat until looser and slightly liquidy. Spread the preserves evenly over the cooled cake.
  • Make the frosting: In a large bowl, combine the sugar, cocoa powder and salt and pour over the hot water. Either by hand or with an electric mixer, whisk until smooth. Add the heavy cream and continue whisking until billowy soft peaks form. When you turn the whisk upside-down, a peak of cream should flop over slightly like a Santa hat. Spread the frosting over the cake and, if using, garnish with the cherries. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Keep it simple: The best frosting recipes are often the simplest. Don't overcomplicate things with too many ingredients or steps.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your frosting will taste. This is especially true for dairy products like butter and cream cheese.
  • Beat your butter or cream cheese until it's light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the frosting and make it smooth and creamy.
  • Gradually add your sugar: Don't just dump all of the sugar into the frosting at once. Add it gradually while beating the frosting on low speed. This will help prevent the frosting from becoming grainy.
  • Flavor your frosting to taste: You can flavor your frosting with a variety of ingredients, such as vanilla extract, almond extract, cocoa powder, or fruit puree. Be creative and experiment until you find a flavor combination that you love.
  • Use frosting within a few days: Frosting is best used within a few days of making it. After that, it will start to lose its flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Frosting is a delicious and versatile way to add sweetness and flavor to your baked goods. With a little practice, you can easily make your own frosting at home. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet, try one of the recipes in this article. You won't be disappointed!
