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.)

Categories     Dessert

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.

CHOCOLATE LASAGNA



Chocolate Lasagna image

Make and share this Chocolate Lasagna recipe from Food.com.

Provided by - Momma Loon

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (18 1/4 ounce) box devil's food cake mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup oil
3 eggs
buttercream frosting
1 1/2 cups butter, softened (3 sticks)
4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chilled

Steps:

  • Make the cake in a 13x9-inch baking pan following instructions on the box of cake mix (Preheat oven to 350 degrees; mix cake mix, water, oil, and eggs together in a large bowl; pour batter into pan greased generously with shortening.).
  • Allow the cake to cool completely.
  • When cake is cool, make buttercream frosting by first whipping the soft butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed.
  • Add two cups of the powdered sugar, mix well, then add remaining powdered sugar.
  • Add 1/4 cup of whole milk and vanilla, then mix on high speed for 2 minutes or until frosting is smooth and creamy.
  • Turn cake out of the pan onto wax paper.
  • Using both hands, carefully flip the cake over, so that it's right-side-up, onto another strip of wax paper.
  • Now you're going to cut through the cake twice, creating three layers.
  • We'll start at the bottom slice.
  • First slide the cake over to the edge of your kitchen counter.
  • This way you can drop your hand with the knife down below the counter at the edge to get a nice, straight cut through the cake.
  • Using a long bread knife or other long serrated knife, cut through the bottom third of the cake.
  • Spin the cake and wax paper so that you can cut through all sides (your knife probably won't get all the way through to the other side).
  • When the cake is sliced, carefully flip the top section over onto the other sheet of wax paper.
  • Frost the bottom layer of cake with approximately 1/3 of the buttercream frosting.
  • Break the chilled semi-sweet chocolate into little bits that are a tad smaller than chocolate chips.
  • A good way to do this is to put the chilled chocolate into a large zip-top bag, then use the handle of a butter knife to smash the unsuspecting chocolate into pieces.
  • Sprinkle about 1/3 of the chocolate bits over the frosting on the bottom layer.
  • Turn the top section back over onto the bottom layer.
  • Again, slice through the top section creating the final two layers.
  • Carefully flip the top over onto the wax paper, and frost the new layer as you did with the first layer, adding chocolate bits as well.
  • You may, at this point, wish to slice the top into thirds across the width of the cake.
  • This makes flipping over the top layer much easier.
  • It's also how you're going to slice the cake later, so you'll never see the cuts.
  • Any cracks or breaks are no big deal since you'll just cover up the goofs with frosting.
  • Carefully reassemble the top section on the rest of the cake.
  • If you have a large bulge in the center of the cake, you may wish to slice that off so that the cake is flatter on top.
  • Throw that slice away.
  • Frost the top of the cake with the remaining frosting, then sprinkle on the remaining chocolate bits.
  • The cake is served as triangular slices.
  • So, slice it up by first cutting through the middle of the cake, lengthwise.
  • Next cut across the cake through the middle (widthwise) twice.
  • Now you have six slices that just need to be cut from corner to corner one time each, creating 12 triangular slices.
  • Chill any cake you don't eat that day.

REAL CHOCOLATE LASAGNA



Real Chocolate Lasagna image

Olive Garden used to make a chocolate lasagna that was good, but not mind-blowing. The other night I wanted to make a lasagna night, with every course made in the form of lasagna. I got inspired and came up with this. AMAZING!!!!!

Provided by Chelsea Mitcham

Categories     Other Desserts

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 box white chocolate pudding mix
1 box chocolate pudding mix
1 Tbsp espresso powder, instant
4 c milk
1 pkg cool whip ( 8 oz tub )
1 bag(s) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. Find the pan you want to use to assemble the lasagna in. I recommend preparing individual portions if possible, but I used 2 small loaf pans. Using the container you'll be using, trace a pattern for the chocolate "lasagna noodles". You need these to be the exact size/shape of the container so the "noodles" fit without having to break them. I suggest making 3-5 copies of the pattern so you can make multiple noodles at once without having to move them too much.
  • 2. Place the chocolate chips in a double boiler or, if you don't have one, I suggest placing a metal bowl(DON'T DARE USE GLASS!!! IT BREAKS! BELIEVE ME!) over a small saucepan with boiling water in it. Just make sure the water won't boil up and hit the bowl. Let the chocolate start to melt, stirring occasionally.
  • 3. Meanwhile, place the pattern(s) under some wax paper so you can see it. Spray the wax paper with nonstick cooking spray so the chocolate will be easy to take off once it cools.
  • 4. Once the chocolate is melted and smooth, lower the heat to simmer the water but keep it on the burner so you can keep working. Using a spoon, pour some chocolate onto the wax paper within the pattern shape and spread it thin(about 1/4" thick or less). Try to make it exactly the shape of the pattern, adding or taking away chocolate to maintain the desired thickness. Repeat until you have used almost all the chocolate. For me, using the small loaf pans, I made about 10 noodles and kept the rest of the chocolate for later.
  • 5. Once you've made all the noodles, carefully slide the wax paper with them on it onto some cookie sheets or trays to put in the freezer. The freezer will help them harden and the cookie sheets/trays will keep them flat like you want.
  • 6. Meanwhile prepare the pudding mixes in separate bowls according to the box. For the chocolate pudding, add the espresso powder. This will bring out the chocolate flavor and cut the sweetness a little.
  • 7. Using a rubber spatula or a whisk, cut in half the cool whip into each pudding, being careful not to make the whipped cream fall. Keep it fluffy!!!
  • 8. By now the noodles should be hardened. If not, just wait a few minutes. If you have to wait a long time, put the pudding in the fridge.
  • 9. When the noodles are ready, take them out. Carefully peel them off the wax paper and get ready to assemble your lasagna.
  • 10. Start with a few spoonfulls of chocolate pudding on the bottom so the first noodle has something to stick to. Smooth it out and then place the first noodle down in the pan. Then cover with a few spoonfulls of white chocolate pudding, smooth it out, then put another noodle. Follow with a layer of chocolate and alternate until you've reached the top of the pan. I recommend ending with a layer of pudding, not a noodle, to follow the style of normal lasagna. Top with chocolate chips or small chunks of melted chocolate, whatever you had left.
  • 11. Freeze the lasagna for a few hours to make it easier to cut and serve. I hope you enjoy this as much as my family did!

CHOCOLATE LASAGNA CUPCAKES RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Chocolate Lasagna Cupcakes Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by Tricia33

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 package Oreo Cookies, about 36 cookies
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1 to 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 to 12 ounce tub Cool Whip, divided
1 to 3.9 ounce package Chocolate Instant Pudding made accordingly
1 cup mini chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Crush 36 Oreos either in a food processor or in a ziplock bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. Prepare cupcake tins with paper liners. This recipe will make 24 cupcakes. Prepare the pudding according to package directions and set aside. Transfer the Oreo crumbs to a large bowl. Stir in 6 tablespoons of melted butter and use a fork to incorporate the butter into the cookie crumbs. Place a tablespoon of Oreo mixture in each cupcake liner. Firmly press the crumbs into the bottom of each cup. Mix an 8 ounce package of cream cheese with a mixer until it is light and fluffy. Add in 2 tablespoons of milk, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and mix well. Stir in 1 cup full of Cool Whip Place a tablespoon of mixture on top of the Oreo layer. Use a spoon to spread the mixture evenly. Optional - skip the cream cheese layer and use ice cream instead! If you choose to use ice cream, allow it to soften a bit before scooping a heaping tablespoon in place of the cream cheese mixture. Scoop 1 tablespoon of pudding on top of the cream cheese or ice cream layer. You will have just enough pudding if you use 1 tablespoon for each cupcake. Use a spoon to spread the pudding evenly. Place 1 tablespoon Cool Whip on top of each cupcake and use a spoon to spread it out. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top. Place cupcakes in the freezer for at least an hour before serving. If you are making them with ice cream in place of the cream cheese layer, allow them to firm up in the freezer for 3-4 hours.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality chocolate that contains at least 70% cocoa solids.
  • Be sure to use unsalted butter to avoid making the lasagna too salty.
  • If you don't have a double boiler, you can melt the chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
  • Don't overmix the lasagna batter, as this will make it tough.
  • Be patient when baking the lasagna. It may take a little longer than you think to cook through, but it's worth the wait.
  • Let the lasagna cool for at least 30 minutes before serving, to allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Chocolate lasagna is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich chocolate flavor and creamy texture, it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert to make, give chocolate lasagna a try. You won't be disappointed.
