Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Cake:
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 12-ounce package semisweet chocolate chips
3 cups all purpose flour, divided
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 1/2 cups (packed) golden brown sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon maple extract
4 large eggs
1 cup buttermilk
Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons (or more) whipping cream
1 1/2 teaspoons instant espresso powder

Steps:

  • For cake:
  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 12-cup Bundt pan. Spray pan generously with nonstick spray. Dust pan lightly with flour. Mix chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons flour in medium bowl. Sift remaining flour with baking soda, baking powder, and salt into another medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar in large bowl until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in vanilla extract and maple extract. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in flour mixture in 3 additions alternately with buttermilk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Fold in chocolate chip mixture. Transfer batter to prepared pan, spreading evenly.
  • Bake cake until tester inserted near center comes out clean and cake begins to pull away from sides of pan, about 1 hour. Cool cake in pan on rack 30 minutes. Invert cake onto rack and cool completely.
  • GOOD TO KNOW:
  • Mixing the chocolate chips with a little flour before adding them to the batter helps the chips stay evenly suspended in the batter and evenly distributed throughout the baked cake (otherwise, they may sink to the bottom).
  • For glaze:
  • Combine powdered sugar, maple syrup, 2 tablespoons cream, and espresso powder in medium bowl. Whisk until smooth, adding more cream by 1/2 teaspoonfuls if glaze is too thick to drizzle. Spoon glaze decoratively over top of cake; let stand at room temperature until glaze is firm, about 1 hour. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with cake dome and let stand at room temperature.

Dark Chocolate Brown Sugar Pound Cake with Chocolate Glaze image

Categories     Cake     Chocolate     Dairy     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Gourmet

Yield Makes 16 to 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 1/4 cups cake flour
3/4 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sour cream (8 1/2 ounces)
2 1/4 sticks (1 cup plus 2 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups packed dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon chocolate extract* (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 large eggs
3 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Accompaniments:brown sugar sour cream
strawberries
*available by mail order

Steps:

  • Do not preheat oven. Butter and flour a 12-cup bundt pan, knocking out any excess flour.
  • Into a small bowl sift together flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt. In another small bowl stir together baking soda and sour cream.
  • In a large bowl with an electric mixer (preferably a standing electric mixer) beat together butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 10 minutes. Beat in extracts and add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. With mixer at low speed, add flour mixture and sour cream mixture alternately in batches, beating until just combined.
  • Pour batter into bundt pan and put in middle of cold oven. Set oven to 350°F and bake cake 1 hour and 25 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Cool cake in pan on a rack 15 minutes and turn out onto rack to cool completely. Pound cake keeps, wrapped in plastic wrap, at room temperature 1 week. Alternatively, pound cake may be frozen, wrapped well in plastic wrap and foil, 3 months.
  • Chop bittersweet chocolate and in a double boiler or a metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water melt chocolate with butter, stirring until smooth. Transfer glaze to a pastry bag fitted with a #3 plain tip (slightly smaller than 1/8 inch). (Alternatively, transfer glaze to a small heavy-duty sealable plastic bag and press out excess air. Snip off 1 corner, making a small hole.) Pipe glaze back and forth over top of cake, letting it drip down sides. Let glaze set 30 minutes at room temperature.
  • Serve cake with dollops of sour cream and strawberries.

Tips:

  • Use room-temperature ingredients. This will help the cake bake evenly and prevent lumps.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will incorporate air into the mixture, making the cake light and tender.
  • Gradually add the eggs one at a time. This will prevent the mixture from curdling.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help the cake rise evenly.
  • Test the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing. This will help the glaze set properly.

Conclusion:

This brown sugar pound cake is a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a rich brown sugar glaze. It is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. Here are some additional tips for making this cake:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
  • You can add a variety of spices to the cake batter, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger.
  • If you don't have a bundt pan, you can bake the cake in a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just adjust the baking time to 45-50 minutes.
  • This cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
