HAWAIIAN CHANTILLY CAKE RECIPE - (3.9/5)



Hawaiian Chantilly Cake Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by carvalhohm

Number Of Ingredients 27

CAKE:
1 cup egg whites, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup + 1 cup sugar
6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup boiling water
1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup oil
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup cake flour (lightly spooned into measuring cup, then leveled off)
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
FROSTING:
1 2/3 cups salted butter
1 1/2 cups evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs
2 egg yolks
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Simple Syrup
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons sugar
TOPPING:
1 cup finely chopped macadamia nuts (salted taste better), lightly toasted

Steps:

  • CAKE: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line bottom of a 9"x13" metal pan with parchment paper. Trim edges to fit bottom. In a small bowl, blend cocoa with boiling water until smooth. Set aside. Place egg whites into the bowl of a standing mixer. Mix on medium speed. When they become a little frothy, add the cream of tartar. Continue on medium speed. Increase to high speed when the volume has doubled. Slowly add in the ½ cup sugar, while keeping the mixer on. Continue whipping until soft peaks that can hold their shape form (this should only take a minute or so). Place the whipped egg whites into a large mixing bowl, pushing them to one side of the bowl. Place the cocoa-water mixture into the standing mixer bowl (no need to wash the bowl first). Add butter, oil, eggs, and vanilla. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add to the cocoa mixture. Mix on medium low speed for 1 minute until blended, then increase to medium speed for 3 minutes. Pour batter into the open side of the bowl with the whipped egg whites, so that the batter flows mostly to the bottom and below the egg whites. Fold the egg whites into the cake batter. Place a spatula down one side of the bowl to the bottom, push chocolate batter from underneath to the other side of the bowl, then lift spatula up the other side of the bowl and over the top, carrying some chocolate batter with it. Continue this pattern, repeating it while turning the bowl ¼ turn at a time, and seeing the streaks of chocolate batter and egg whites slowly incorporate together. The final chiffon cake batter should be uniform in color, without any streaks of white (those make tough areas in the cake). If necessary, use the spatula to gently spread through the white streaks to help blend them into the chiffon cake batter. Whatever you do, do not stick the spatula into the bowl and stir vigorously in circles--that would deflate the air bubbles and yield a dense cake. Pour batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake for 33 to 35 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Invert onto a cake rack and cool completely. FROSTING: Melt butter in a medium sized saucepan over medium low heat. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Whisk in milk, sugar, and vanilla first, then eggs and egg yolks one at a time. Cook on medium heat to a low boil, whisking intermittently. Once it boils, let it bubble and cook for another 2 minutes, continuing to whisk intermittently. Remove from heat and quickly sift cornstarch over the frosting while whisking it in. Whisk quickly and forcefully to prevent lumps from forming. Pour the frosting into a shallow dish such as a glass pyrex pie pan. Cool to room temperature. Cover and chill about 3 hours, until it solidifies to a spreading consistency. Filling, Frosting and Topping the Cake: Make the simple syrup in a small pot by adding the sugar to the water and bringing to a boil. Set aside. Loosen the cake edges from the sides of the pan with a butter knife. Place a cake platter over the top of the pan and flip everything over, unmolding the cake onto the platter. Peel off the parchment paper from the cake. Use a large serrated knife to split the cake into 2 layers. Insert a flexible cutting mat between the 2 layers to lift off the top layer. Invert this top layer onto another mat so that both layers are cut side up. Brush each layer with half of the simple syrup. Mix chilled frosting smooth with a rubber spatula. Place one third of the frosting onto the bottom cake layer. Use a small, metal angled spatula to spread frosting evenly out to the edges. Place the top layer, cut side down, onto the frosted bottom layer. Working a small section at a time, place some frosting onto the cake top, then push it over the edge and quickly frost the side. Repeat until all the sides are covered. Frost the top last. Finally, sprinkle the macadamia nuts over the top. Cover and chill at least 24 to 48 hours before serving. Keep refrigerated.

CHANTILLY CARROT CAKE



Chantilly Carrot Cake image

There was a restaurant/bakery back in the 40's and 50's, and probably longer than that, in Toledo, Ohio called Smith's Cafeteria. They had the best carrot cake that I've ever had and I've been looking for a recipe that would compare ever since and I've finally found one. This cake is light and fluffy and not the heavy spice cake that most carrot cakes are. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does.

Provided by Matt Ciampa

Categories     Bakery Goods

Time 1h40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 lb large carrot, peeled
1 cup buttermilk, room temperature
2 ½ cups all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 ¾ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 cups light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon McCormick® vanilla extract
1 cup vegetable oil
2 sticks butter, softened
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped
3 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line the bottoms of 3 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper and grease with nonstick spray.
  • Make the cake: Grate the carrots on the large holes of a box grater. You should have about 6 cups.
  • In a large bowl, combine the grated carrots and buttermilk and stir until the carrots are completely coated.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the all-purpose and whole wheat flours, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, salt, baking soda, cloves, allspice and nutmeg.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer), combine the brown and granulated sugars, eggs, and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until the mixture drips from the whisk in ribbons, about 3 minutes.
  • With the mixer running on medium speed, slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil, scraping down the sides of the bowl halfway through, if necessary. Continue mixing until the mixture is fully emulsified, about 2 minutes.
  • Add ⅓ of the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Add ½ of the carrot mixture and continue mixing on low speed until incorporated. Continue alternating adding the flour and carrot mixture. Remove the bowl from the mixer and use a flat rubber spatula to bring the batter together.
  • Evenly divide the batter between the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Let the cakes cool for about 10 minutes, then remove from the pans and let cool completely.
  • Make the frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer), cream together the butter, cream cheese, vanilla extract, salt, and vanilla bean seeds until creamy, about 1 minute. Add the powdered sugar and continue mixing until silky and smooth, about 4 minutes.
  • Assemble the cake: Dab a bit of frosting on a cake board and place a cake layer on top. Scoop 1 cup of frosting onto the cake. Repeat with the remaining 2 layers. Use the remaining frosting to coat the top of the cake completely, leaving the sides naked.
  • Slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!
