Coffee and Mint Cream Cake image

This is my final recipe from *The World Encyclopedia of Coffee* ---- Per the intro, Ground almonds give this buttery coffee sponge cake a moist texture & delicate flavour. Then it's sandwiched together w/a generous filling of creme de menthe buttercream." I nearly died & went to heaven when I saw the breathtaking pic! (Time does not include time for cake layers to fully cool). *Enjoy* !

Time 40m

Yield 8 Wedge Servings, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon fine ground coffee
1 1/2 tablespoons water (heated to near-boil temp)
3/4 cup unsalted butter (well-softened)
1 cup sugar
2 cups self-raising flour (sifted)
1/2 cup ground almonds
3 eggs
icing sugar (to dust top layer of cake)
of fresh mint (sml sprigs for garnish)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup icing sugar (sifted)
2 tablespoons creme de menthe

Steps:

  • For Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Lightly grease & line 2 7-in rd baking tins w/greaseproof paper.
  • Put coffee grounds in a sml bowl & pour hot water over them. Leave to infuse for 4-5 minutes, then strain thru a fine sieve (See note below).
  • Put butter, sugar, flour, almonds, eggs & coffee in a lrg bowl. Beat well for 1 min till blended. Divide mixture evenly between the tins & level the surface.
  • Bake for 25 min till well-risen & firm to the touch. Leave in the tins for 5 min, then turn out onto a wire rack to fully cool.
  • For Filling: While cake layers are baking, cream the butter, icing sugar + creme de menthe liqueur together in a bowl till light & fluffy. Refrigerate till cake layers are baked & fully cooled.
  • Remove lining paper from sponge cake layers. Put 1 layer on serving plate (flat side up) & frost top surface only w/chilled filling. Gently place 2nd layer atop filling (flat side down). Refrigerate till ready to serve.
  • To Serve: Generously dust top of cake w/icing sugar & scatter fresh mint leaves over dusted surface. (This was inconsistent w/the pic which showed the mint leaves mounded in the center of the top of the cake, so choose the look you prefer).
  • NOTE RE PREP STEP 2: My pref would be to use a simple coffee filter to strain the coffee & remove the grounds. I'd just squeeze it to get all the coffee for the cake or press the filter w/the round side of a tbsp to manage that step easily. :-).

COFFEE CREAM CAKE

I just tried this beautiful Coffee Cream Cake from The Pioneer Woman's new book! Pretty sure I have every book she's ever written. Her recipes never disappoint, and this cake is quite the showstopper!

Provided by Amanda Rettke

Categories     Dessert

Time 41m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup (2 sticks, 226g) unsalted butter
2 tbsp. instant coffee
1 cup (237g) boiling water
2 cups (256g) all purpose flour
2 cups (400g) granulated sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup (120g) buttermilk
2 large eggs (room temperature)
1 tbsp. vanilla
1 eight ounce package cream cheese
1 cup (128g) confectioners sugar
1 cup (238g) heavy cream
3/4 cup unsalted butter
1 tbsp. instant coffee crystals
1/4 cup half and half
4 cups (512g) confectioners sugar
2 tsp. vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Start by melting the butter in a saucepan on the stove. Once the butter is melted, add in the instant coffee. Pour in the boiling water and remove from heat. Whisk until fully combined and then set aside.
  • In a large bowl, add flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda. Pour butter mixture over and whisk together.
  • In separate bowl mix buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla. Pour over batter and whisk until fully combined.
  • Prepare pans. I used two 8in rounds. Pour batter into pans and cook for 16-22 minutes or until an inserted toothpick is removed clean.
  • Let the cakes cool to room temperature then cut them each in half, creating four layers instead of two. You may need to level the cakes slightly if there is a large dome.
  • Eat the scraps immediately, and tell no one.
  • I then placed all the layers in the freezer for two hours.
  • Add cream cheese to stand mixer with paddle attachment.
  • Add in confectioners sugar and heavy cream and mix until light and fluffy. Transfer to a bowl and clean mixing bowl.
  • Melt butter on medium-low heat in a medium saucepan and then add the instant coffee.
  • Whisk in half and half and turn off heat.
  • Add in confectioners sugar and vanilla and whisk until there are no lumps. Let stand for 5 minutes.
  • To assemble cakes, place one layer on cake stand and cover in whipped cream cheese frosting. Place another layer and add more frosting. Continue until all four layers are in place.
  • Drizzle coffee icing over the top and allow it to spill over the sides.

COFFEE AND CREAM COFFEE CAKE



Coffee and Cream Coffee Cake image

In most classic coffee cakes, cinnamon plays a starring role, but this recipe puts coffee flavor front and center thanks to the addition of brewed coffee and espresso powder (or instant espresso). Espresso powder adds strong flavor, and it's fine enough to dissolve completely so you don't get any crunchy bits. A ribbon of cream cheese runs through the center of the cake, complementing the coffee flavor like a splash of cream in a cup of coffee.

Categories     cakes, dessert

Time 2h

Yield One 9-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 1/2 cups/190 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 cup/50 grams old-fashioned oats
1/3 cup/75 grams light or dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon espresso powder (or instant espresso)
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
10 tablespoons/140 grams cold unsalted butter (1 1/4 sticks)
12 ounces/340 grams cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup/100 grams granulated sugar
1 large egg
Nonstick cooking spray
2 1/2 cups/320 grams all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons espresso powder (or instant espresso)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
3/4 cup/170 grams unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks), at room temperature
3/4 cup/165 grams light or dark brown sugar
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup/180 milliliters coffee, cooled
1/2 cup/120 milliliters sour cream
Confectioners' sugar, as needed for finishing

Steps:

  • Make the streusel: In a medium bowl, stir the flour, oats, brown sugar, espresso powder, baking powder and salt to combine. Cut the butter into tablespoon portions and drop it into the bowl. Mix with your hands or a pastry cutter until the mixture is thoroughly combined and comes together to form large clumps; set aside.
  • Make the cream cheese filling: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the cream cheese and granulated sugar on medium speed until well combined, about 2 minutes. Scrape the bowl well, then add the egg and mix until fully incorporated. Transfer filling to a medium bowl and clean out the mixing bowl.
  • Make the coffee cake: Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick spray. Line the edge of the pan with 2 strips of parchment paper cut to the height and diameter of the ring, then spray the ring again. (This helps prevent the cake from sticking and makes it easier to unmold.) Place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, espresso powder, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt to combine. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a medium bowl using a hand mixer), cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, and mix, scraping the bowl well after each is incorporated. Add the vanilla and mix to combine.
  • Add about one-third of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix on low speed to combine. With the mixer running, gradually pour the coffee into the mixture in a slow, steady stream, mixing until fully incorporated.
  • Add half of the remaining flour mixture and mix on low speed to combine. Add the sour cream and mix to combine, then add the remaining flour mixture and mix until fully incorporated. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl well to ensure the mixture is homogenous.
  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan, then sprinkle half of the streusel over the surface of the batter. Dollop the cream cheese mixture by the heaping tablespoons all over the surface of the batter, keeping it about an inch away from the sides. Spoon it over as evenly as you can, but don't try to spread it once it's on top of the batter.
  • Pour the remaining batter over the cream cheese and gently spread into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining streusel on top. Transfer to the oven and bake until the cake springs back slightly in the center when touched and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, checking it at about 1 hour and 20 minutes, then baking another 10 minutes if necessary. If your streusel is becoming too dark before the cake is done, loosely cover it with foil.
  • Run a thin knife around the outside edge of the parchment paper ring to loosen it from the edge of the pan. Cool the cake for 20 to 30 minutes inside the pan, then remove the outer ring of the pan and the parchment paper and let cool completely. If desired, gently loosen the cake from the base and transfer to a platter, or simply leave it on the base to serve. Garnish with confectioners' sugar just before serving.
