BLOTKAKE (NORWEGIAN CREAM CAKE)



Blotkake (Norwegian Cream Cake) image

Blotkake, layered spongecake covered with drifts of whipped cream and fruit, is a dessert that Norwegians are passionate and possessive about. It is a traditional sweet finish for any festive meal, whether a long, dark winter lunch or a long, sunlit summer dinner. "Scandinavians really value lingering and feasting at the table," said Maren Waxenberg, a Norwegian-American cook who lives in New York City and serves this cake at Thanksgiving. Cloudberries are a protected crop in Norway and are rarely available fresh in the United States, but raspberries are a good substitute.

Time 1h

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick cooking spray
4 large eggs
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla sugar or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup/120 grams cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups/720 milliliters whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons cloudberry, raspberry or blackberry preserves
1/3 cup cloudberry or raspberry liqueur (such as Chambord), or berry juice of your choice
12 ounces/340 grams fresh raspberries or blackberries, for decorating (optional)

Steps:

  • Bake the cake: Heat oven to 350 degrees and mist a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Combine eggs, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer (or the whisk attachment of a stand mixer) until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Sift cake flour and baking powder into a separate bowl, then fold into the egg mixture in 2 additions.
  • Pour batter into pan and bake on the middle rack of the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the middle comes out clean. Let cool completely before removing from pan.
  • Make the frosting and filling: Beat whipping cream, vanilla and confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Transfer 1/3 of the whipped cream to a separate bowl and stir in preserves.
  • Use a serrated knife to slice cake horizontally into 3 equal layers. Arrange top layer of the cake cut-side-up on a platter. Poke a few holes in the cake layer with a toothpick, then sprinkle with 1/3 of the liqueur or juice.
  • Spread half the whipped cream and preserves mixture over the cake layer, then arrange middle layer on top. Poke holes in the middle layer with a toothpick and sprinkle with another 1/3 of the liqueur or juice. Top with remaining whipped cream and preserves mixture.
  • Arrange the bottom cake layer on top of the stack, cut-side-down. Poke more holes and sprinkle with remaining liqueur or juice. Frost top and sides of cake with the whipped cream, using a pastry bag to pipe on stars or other designs, if you'd like. Decorate with fresh berries.

NORWEGIAN CLOUDBERRY CREAM WITH LAVENDER AND VANILLA



Norwegian Cloudberry Cream With Lavender and Vanilla image

This is a twist on the traditional way of serving cloudberries in Norway, I have added lavender and vanilla to enhance the ephemeral flavour of this delicate arctic berry. A member of the rose family, cloudberry bushes produce delicious yellow/orange berries that are highly prized in Scandinavia. Smaller than blackberries and raspberries, cloudberries are picked at the end of July and the beginning of August. The cloudberry is almost exclusively sold fresh or made into jam, but it's also used in liqueurs and as a filling in sweets and chocolates. They are difficult to substitute - but I imagine raspberries or lingonberries would be a lovely idea if you cannot get cloudberries.

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large eggs (about 1 1/3 cups), room temperature
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, stirred before measuring
2 cups cloudberry preserves
3 cups heavy cream, whipped
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup dark rum

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper. Break eggs into a liquid 2-cup measuring cup to measure.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine eggs and sugar, beating on high speed until light and lemon colored, about 5 minutes.
  • Beat in vanilla and salt. With a rubber spatula, thoroughly fold in flour.
  • Divide batter evenly between the two pans. Bake until the cake springs back when touched in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer cakes to a wire rack to cool. Loosen edges of cooled cakes and remove from pans. Using a serrated knife, slice cakes horizontally to make four cake layers in all.
  • For the filling:Whip the cream until firm but not stiff, and add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla.
  • To assemble the cake:Place bottom layer on cake plate, brush cake with rum, and spread with one-third of the filling. Top with the second layer, brush with rum, and spread with 1/2 of the preserves. Top with the third layer, brush with rum, and spread with one-third of the filling. Top with the fourth layer, brush with rum, and spread with remaining preserves. Using a 12-inch pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch star tip, pipe remaining filling on cake in a decorative pattern.

Tips:

  • For a smoother cream, strain the cloudberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before churning.
  • If you don't have a churn, you can make this ice cream in a freezer-safe container. Just freeze it for 2-3 hours, then beat it with a whisk or electric mixer until smooth. Repeat this process every 30 minutes until the ice cream is firm.
  • To make lavender sugar, combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon of dried lavender in a food processor or blender. Pulse until the lavender is finely ground and evenly distributed throughout the sugar.
  • If you don't have vanilla bean paste, you can use 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract instead.
  • The ice cream can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

This Norwegian Cloudberry Cream with Lavender and Vanilla is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cloudberries give the ice cream a tart and flavorful taste, while the lavender and vanilla add a touch of sweetness and floral aroma. This ice cream is sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
