Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Yield Makes one 9 1/2-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup plus 2 tablespoons cake flour (not self-rising), sifted
1/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 teaspoons instant espresso powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
12 large egg whites, room temperature
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
6 ounces milk chocolate, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened but still cool, cut into 1-inch pieces
Semisweet chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together cake flour, cocoa, espresso powder, and salt.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on medium speed until frothy. Add cream of tartar and increase speed to high. Continue beating while gradually adding sugar until stiff peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in vanilla. Remove bowl from mixer. Add half the flour mixture and gently fold in until streaky, then add remaining flour mixture and fold in until well incorporated (do not overmix, as this will deflate the meringue, creating a dense cake).
  • Gently spoon batter into an ungreased 9 1/2-inch tube pan with removable bottom; smooth top. Run a knife or small spatula through batter to release air bubbles. Bake until a tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Invert pan; let cake cool completely in pan. Run a knife around the inner and outer perimeter of the pan to loosen. Use knife to release cake from bottom of pan and remove.
  • Frosting: Place both chocolates in the bowl of a stand mixer; set aside. In a small saucepan, bring cream and corn syrup to a boil. Pour over chocolate; let stand 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Whisk, starting in center and working outward, until chocolate is smooth. Let cool at room temperature, whisking occasionally, about 30 minutes.
  • Attach bowl to stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on medium speed, gradually adding butter, until frosting is smooth and silky.
  • Using a serrated knife, split cake in half horizontally. Place bottom layer on a cake plate. Measure 2 cups frosting and spread evenly with an offset spatula. Top with second layer. Use remaining frosting to cover cake completely, using spatula to create a smooth finish or create swirls. Garnish with chocolate shavings, if desired. Serve immediately.

For the Cake:
1 1/2 cups egg whites, about 10 to 12 large eggs
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, divided
1 cup cake flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa, natural or Dutch-process
1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For the Optional Frosting:
2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2/3 cup milk chocolate chips
2/3 cup heavy cream
Dash fine salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup butter, cut into pieces, room temperature
1 to 2 ounces shaved semisweet chocolate, optional, for garnish

Steps:

  • Gather the cake ingredients.
  • Place the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Alternatively, use an electric hand mixer. Let stand for about 30 minutes to bring to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, sift 1 cup of granulated sugar, cake flour, and cocoa into a medium bowl. Sift again and set aside (reserve the sifter, you will use it again). Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 350 F.
  • With the mixer on medium speed, beat the egg whites until frothy.
  • Add the cream of tartar and beat on high speed, gradually adding the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar. Continue beating for 3 to 5 minutes, until stiff peaks form. Beat in 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
  • Sift half of the flour-cocoa mixture over the beaten egg whites and gently fold it in with a spatula until blended but still streaky.
  • Sift the remaining flour-cocoa mixture over the egg whites and continue folding until well combined.
  • Spoon the batter into a two-piece 9.5-inch tube pan. Run a butter knife or spatula through the batter to release any air bubbles.
  • Bake the cake for about 38 to 42 minutes, or until a wooden skewer or cake tester inserted into the cake comes out clean.
  • Invert the pan and cool the cake completely.
  • Slide a knife or spatula around the pan and center tube to loosen the cake. Grasp the center tube to remove the cake from the outer pan; use a knife or spatula to release the cake from the bottom of the pan.
  • Place the cake on a cake plate or cake stand and dust with confectioners' sugar, or frost with the optional fluffy chocolate frosting. If desired, garnish with shaved chocolate. Make the Optional Frosting
  • Gather the frosting ingredients.
  • Put the semisweet and milk chocolate chips in a heat-safe bowl; set aside.
  • Pour the cream into a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until steaming hot. Do not let the cream boil.
  • Pour the cream over the chocolate chips and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir until melted. If there are still lumps of chocolate, place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and stir until smooth. Alternatively, microwave on low in short bursts, stirring frequently, until the mixture is smooth.
  • Let the chocolate mixture stand, stirring every 15 minutes, until cooled to room temperature, about 70 F to 75 F. Cooling will take about 1 to 2 hours.
  • Add a pinch of salt, the vanilla, and 2 to 3 pieces of butter to the chocolate mixture. Beat with an electric mixer with whisk attachment on low speed, adding the butter a few pieces at a time until smooth and well combined. Alternatively, use a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.

ANGEL FOOD CANDY



Angel Food Candy image

Provided by bcfdwife

Categories     Candy

Time 50m

Yield 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup white sugar
1 cup dark corn syrup
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon baking soda
2 cups semisweet chocolate morsels
2 tablespoons vegetable shortening

Steps:

  • Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, corn syrup and vinegar. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Heat, without stirring, to 300 to 310 degrees F or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads.
  • Remove from heat and stir in baking soda.
  • Pour into prepared pan; do not spread. Mixture will not fill pan.
  • Allow to cool completely.
  • Melt morsels and shortening in medium, uncovered, microwave-safe bowl for 1 minute; stir. Microwave an additional 10 to 15 seconds, stirring until smooth.
  • Break cooled candy into bite sized pieces and dip into melted chocolate. Let set on waxed paper. Store tightly covered.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality chocolate that is at least 70% cacao. This will give your candy a rich, decadent flavor.
  • Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature before you start whipping them. This will help them reach their full volume and make your candy light and airy.
  • Do not overbeat the egg whites. If you overbeat them, they will become dry and stiff, and your candy will be tough.
  • Be careful not to overcook the sugar syrup. If you overcook it, it will become too thick and your candy will be hard and brittle.
  • If you are using a candy thermometer, remove the sugar syrup from the heat when it reaches 240 degrees Fahrenheit (115 degrees Celsius).
  • If you are not using a candy thermometer, test the sugar syrup by dropping a small amount into a bowl of cold water. If the syrup forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • Pour the sugar syrup over the beaten egg whites in a slow, steady stream, beating constantly. This will help prevent the egg whites from curdling.
  • Continue beating the egg whites and sugar syrup until the mixture is thick and glossy and holds stiff peaks.
  • If you are adding nuts, fruits, or other flavorings, fold them into the egg white mixture gently. Do not overmix, or you will deflate the egg whites.
  • Pour the candy mixture into a prepared pan and let it cool completely. This will take several hours or overnight.
  • Once the candy is cool, cut it into squares or slices and enjoy!

Conclusion:

Chocolate Angel Food Candy is a delicious, light, and airy candy that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized with different flavors and toppings. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced candy maker, you are sure to enjoy making and eating this delightful treat.
