COPYCAT OLIVE GARDEN CHOCOLATE LASAGNA



Copycat Olive Garden Chocolate Lasagna image

This is a copycat recipe posted by request -- I have not made this recipe, and so the times are just a guess. You have to practice making the frosting in order to get the consistency right. The filling is softer than the top frosting but the flavor is exactly the same (which is why you should use the same recipe for both). You should have no trouble finding clear almond and clear vanilla extract. The colorless butter flavor is a little more difficult. If you can't find it anywhere else, Wilton sells it online.)

Time 3h50m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

6 cups cake flour
5 1/4 cups sugar
2 1/4 cups hershey's cocoa
2 tablespoons baking soda
4 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups butter
12 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup water
4 tablespoons meringue powder
12 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
1 1/4 cups shortening
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon clear almond extract
1 teaspoon clear vanilla extract
1 teaspoon colorless butter flavoring
1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
Hershey's syrup

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F Grease three 10-inch springform pans.
  • In mixing bowl, stir together sifted cake flour, sugar, Hershey 's Cocoa and baking soda. Add butter and mix well. Add milk, eggs and vanilla. Mix thoroughly.
  • Pour about 5 cups of the cake batter into each prepared pan. Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until toothpick inserted in cake center comes out clean.
  • Cool for 10 minutes before you remove the cake from the pan, then cool completely on a wire rack.
  • To make buttercream filling, combine water and meringue powder; whip at high speed until peaks form. Add 4 cups of sugar, one cup at a time, beating after each addition at low speed.
  • Alternately add shortening and remainder of sugar. Add salt and flavorings; beat at low speed until smooth. Thin out ½ of the frosting with a little extra water. The thinned frosting is used as the filling between layers.
  • To assemble the cake, place one 10 inch cake on a large round plate or a large round cake platter. Spread half of the thinned frosting on top, frosting only the top of the cake (not the sides). Sprinkle very lightly with semi-sweet chocolate chips. (There are very few chips on this layer, usually only 1 or 2 per wedge, so sprinkle very, very lightly).
  • Place the second cake on top of the first. Frost the top with the remaining thinned frosting. Sprinkle with semi-sweet chocolate chips. (You can be a bit more generous with this layer).
  • Place the third layer on top of the second. Frost the top with all of the butter cream that was NOT thinned. This is a thick layer of frosting so pile it on, and try to get the top as smooth as you can. Sprinkle with semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • To serve, cut the cake into wedges, as you would cut a pizza. Using Hershey's chocolate syrup, create a design on your dessert plate. Place the wedge of chocolate lasagna at the 11 o'clock position on your dessert plate with the point facing down, so that you can see some of the syrup design.
  • NOTE: The frosting seems more authentic if you let it set up (sit out) for an hour at room temperature. Wrap the sides lightly with foil to keep the cake from drying out as well.

Important Note:
Please be informed that the following summary, tips, and conclusion have been generated by an advanced language model and should be treated as suggestive in nature. It is always advisable to consult a professional for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Summary:

  • Decadent Dessert: Brownie lasagna is a unique and indulgent treat that combines the richness of chocolate brownies with the creamy texture of traditional lasagna. Its distinct appearance and mouthwatering taste make it a popular choice for dessert enthusiasts.
  • Key Ingredients: The recipe typically calls for chocolate cake mix, cream cheese, whipped cream, and an assortment of chocolate candies or cookies for the various lasagna "noodles" and fillings. The combination of these ingredients results in a dessert that is both visually appealing and highly palatable.
  • Preparation and Assembly: Preparing a successful dish requires careful attention to the preparation and assembly process. Layer the ingredients in the correct order, with each layer contributing to the celestiality of the final product. Proper refrigeration time is essential to ensure the lasagna's stability and structure.
Preparation and Assembly:

  • Precise Layering: Proper assembly of the lasagna is vital. Start with a solid layer of chocolate cake mix as the base, followed by alternating additional mixes and fillings. Make sure to evenly distribute the ingredients to maintain a consistent construction.
  • Cream Cheese Symphony: The cream cheese layer is a key element in the lasagna. Achieve the ideal texture by fully blending the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. The resulting mixture should be well-blended to ensure it seamlessly complements the other components.
  • Chilling Intermission: Refrigeration is an essential step in the preparation, allowing the lasagna to set properly. The chilling process helps stabilize the cake mix layer and contributes to the lasagna's overall structure. Sufficient refrigeration time is necessary to ensure the lasagna slices cleanly and adheres to its form after serving.
  • Whipped Symphony: The whipped cream layer adds richness and texture to the lasagna. Achieve the ideal texture for the whipped cream by beating it until it forms soft peaks. Be sure to not over-whip the cream, as this can cause it to become too firm.
  • Candy Symphony: The addition of chocolate candies or cookies to the lasagna is what truly sets it apart. These elements provide a textural contrast and extra chocolatey indulgence. Select your favorite chocolate candies or cookies and crumble them into small pieces, then sprinkle them between the lasagna's various mix and cream cheese fillings.
Conclusion:
  • Indulge in Culinary Harmony: Brownie lasagna stands as a testament to the harmonious convergence of flavors and textures. The chocolatey richness, creamy fillings, and crispy chocolate candies come together to create a dessert that captivates taste buds and leaves a lingering craving.
  • Culinary Canvas: Brownie lasagna not only enchants the palate but also unveils a culinary canvas where experimentation reigns. Feel empowered to customize the dessert with various chocolate candies, cookies, or fillings, creating unique and personalized taste sensations.
  • Presentation Finesse: The visual appeal of the lasagna is as alluring as its taste. Meticulous attention to presentation further enhances the dessert's appeal, transforming it into an edible work of art. Consider garnishing with powdered sugar, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries to elevate the presentation and entice taste buds even further.
