DELUXE COFFEE CAKE



Deluxe Coffee Cake image

This is a cake I would wake up to periodically as a kid. It will send hypnotic aroma waves through the whole house, waking everyone up. As far as the process of making this cake goes, I really like to begin by making the topping. Combining the flavors that will top the cake provides motive to hurry and bake the cake and get to the eating part!

Time 1h45m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup toasted and coarsely chopped pecans
1/2 cup toasted and coarsely chopped walnuts
2/3 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, sifted
1 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus additional for greasing the pan, at room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs, at room temperature
2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking powder, sifted
1 teaspoon baking soda, sifted
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup whole milk yogurt

Steps:

  • For the topping: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, combine the nuts, flour, sugars, cinnamon and salt. Stir to blend. Stir in the butter. The topping should form sandy clumps. Sprinkle the topping onto the baking sheet to break it up into smaller clumps. Refrigerate.
  • For the coffee cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Use butter to thoroughly grease the bottom and sides of a 13- by 9-inch baking pan. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, cream the butter and granulated sugar together until light yellow and smooth, 5 to 8 minutes. Alternatively, this can be done with an electric hand mixer. Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat until thoroughly integrated.
  • Remove the topping from the refrigerator so it has a few minutes to come to room temperature before baking. Meanwhile, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and yogurt until smooth. Turn the mixer on low and alternate, adding some of the flour mixture with some of the sour cream mixture. When all has been mixed, give the sides and the bottom of the bowl a scrape and blend to make sure the batter is thoroughly integrated. Transfer the batter to the greased baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Liberally sprinkle the cake with all of the topping. Take care to cover the whole top. Put the pan in the center of the oven and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and allow to cool for 30 minutes before serving.

Time 1h55m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
3 tablespoons instant coffee granules
1 cup boiling water
½ cup buttermilk
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
¾ cup butter, softened
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon instant coffee granules, or more to taste
2 tablespoons heavy cream, plus more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 8- or 9-inch cake pans, and dust with flour. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, white sugar, and salt until thoroughly combined.
  • Melt 1 cup of butter in a small saucepan; in a bowl, stir together 3 tablespoons of instant coffee with the boiling water until the coffee has dissolved. Pour the coffee mixture into the melted butter, bring to a boil over medium heat, and stir for about 10 seconds; set the butter-coffee mixture aside to cool.
  • Mix the buttermilk, eggs, vanilla extract, and baking soda in a bowl until the baking soda has dissolved. Mix the cooled coffee mixture into the flour mixture, then gently stir in the buttermilk mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cakes are browned, and a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes before cooling completely on racks.
  • Mix 3/4 cup of softened butter, confectioners' sugar, 1 tablespoon of instant coffee, and cream in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer on High speed until the frosting is light and creamy; mix in additional cream, 1 teaspoon at a time, if needed to whip frosting to spreadable texture. Frost the cooled cake layers.

DELICTABLY DIFFERENT "COFFEE" CAKE



Delictably Different

I got bored last night and decided to make something "sweet" and this is what I ended up with. It is not a dense cake, but rather light, however, it isn't super sweet. You can use any choice of liquid coffee creamer that you desire. This fills the house with a wondeful smell while cooking.

1 (8 ounce) package softened cream cheese
4 eggs

1/2 cup hazelnut-flavored liquid coffee creamer (I used Coffeemate Hazelnut)

  • Add coffee creamer and mix slowly until well blended.
  • Pour this mixture over the top of cake mix and lightly blend in with a knife for a"marbled" texture.

  • Serve warm or when cool.

DELUXE COFFEE CAKE



Deluxe Coffee Cake image

This coffeecake was, for me, a real confidence builder. It was one of the first things I made on my own. And considering I grew up next door to a doughnut shop, making this from scratch became a source of pride. I call this my alarm-clock cake because the smell of it baking as a fresh pot of coffee slowly drips its way to completion is a surefire way to get everyone out of bed.

Yield Serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup walnut halves, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup pecan halves, coarsely chopped
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup whole-milk yogurt

Steps:

  • Make the topping: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, stir together the walnuts, pecans, flour, granulated and brown sugars, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the butter. The topping should form sandy clumps. Sprinkle the topping onto the baking sheet to break it up into smaller clumps. Refrigerate.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Use butter to thoroughly grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch round baking pan.
  • Make the cake batter: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the butter and sugar together, on medium-high, scraping down the sides from time to time, for 8 minutes. Lower the speed and add the eggs, one by one, taking care that the first egg is thoroughly integrated before adding the second.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. In a separate bowl, whisk together the salt, sour cream, and yogurt until smooth. Turn the mixer on low and alternate adding some of the flour mixture with some of the sour cream mixture. When all has been mixed in, give the sides and the bottom of the bowl a good scrape and blend to make sure the batter is thoroughly combined. Transfer the batter to the greased baking pan and tap it lightly on the sides so it falls evenly in the pan and to remove any air bubbles. Liberally sprinkle the cake with all of the topping.
  • Bake the cake: Bake until a cake tester or small knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Allow the cake to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Once cool, the cake will keep, covered, for up to 3 days.
