Categories     dessert

Time 55m

Yield : 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups egg whites (from about 1 dozen eggs), at room temperature
1 1/4 teaspoons cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar, plus 1/2 cup
1 1/8 cups sifted cake flour
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 orange, zested
3/4 cup orange juice
1 1/2 pounds confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer), whip the egg whites until foamy. Add the cream of tartar and salt and continue whipping until soft peaks form. With the mixer running, gradually add 1 cup of the sugar and continue whipping until stiff and the sugar has dissolved, about 30 seconds.
  • Sift the remaining 1/2 cup sugar with the pre-sifted cake flour 3 times, to aerate the mixture. Fold into the egg whites, then fold in the vanilla, and zest.
  • Spoon the batter into ungreased mini tube pans. Bake until light golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool by turning the cake (in the pan) upside down until it cools to room temperature. Run a long, sharp knife blade around the cakes to loosen, then knock the cakes out onto a plate, or work them out with your fingers. The outside of the cake will remain in the pan leaving the cake whiter and more angelic looking.
  • Make the glaze: Stir the ingredients together until smooth. Dip the tops of the cakes in the glaze. Let set for at least 30 minutes before serving, or until the icing is hard. Serve with sorbet.
  • Serving suggestion: sorbet .

Number Of Ingredients 25

Sauce:
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
Pinch of salt
Cake:
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
1 cup cake flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups egg whites (about 9 large)
1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
1 cup superfine sugar
1 tablespoon finely grated orange peel
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Compote:
2 blood oranges
3 ripe passion fruits
1 kiwi, peeled, quartered lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices
1 cup 1/2-inch cubes mango
1/2 cup 1/2-inch cubes pineapple
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • For sauce:
  • Combine sugar and 1/3 cup water in heavy medium saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium-high; boil without stirring until syrup is deep amber, occasionally brushing down sides of pan with wet pastry brush and swirling pan, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Carefully add cream (mixture will bubble vigorously). Place pan over low heat; stir until caramel bits dissolve and sauce is smooth. Remove from heat; add butter, cardamom, and pinch of salt. Stir until butter melts. Cool.DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 week ahead. Cover; chill. Bring to room temperature or rewarm over low heat before using.
  • For cake:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Sift powdered sugar, flour, and salt 3 times. Place in medium bowl.
  • Using electric mixer, beat egg whites in large bowl until foamy. Add cream of tartar; beat until whites are opaque and soft peaks form. Gradually add superfine sugar, beating until whites are thick and shiny and fluffy peaks form (peaks should droop over gently; do not overbeat). Add orange peel and vanilla; beat just until blended. Sift 1/4 of flour mixture over whites. Using large rubber spatula, gently fold flour mixture into whites. Repeat with remaining flour mixture in 3 more additions. Transfer batter to ungreased 10-inch-diameter angel food cake pan with removable bottom and 4-inch-high sides (do not use nonstick pan); smooth top.
  • Bake cake until golden and springy to touch, about 50 minutes. Immediately invert pan onto work surface if pan has feet, or invert center tube of pan onto neck of bottle or funnel. Cool cake completely.
  • Gently tap bottom edge of pan on work surface while rotating pan until cake loosens. Transfer to platter. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover with cake dome; let stand at room temperature.
  • For compote:
  • Cut all peel and white pith from oranges. Using small sharp knife and working over bowl to catch juices, cut between membranes to release orange segments into bowl. Squeeze remaining juice from membranes into bowl. If orange segments are large, cut each in half or thirds. Cut passion fruits in half; scoop out pulp and add to orange segments. Add remaining fruits, sugar, mint, and pinch of salt. Toss gently to combine. DO HEAD: an be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.
  • Slice cake; transfer to plates. Spoon compote alongside; top with caramel.

ORANGE VANILLA BEAN ANGEL FOOD CAKE



Orange Vanilla Bean Angel Food Cake image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     dessert

Time 3h10m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup cake flour
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
2 tablespoons orange zest
1 1/2 teaspoons cream of tartar
12 large egg whites, at room temperature
1 vanilla bean

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Add the sugar to a food processor and blend until the sugar is super fine, about 1 minute. Reserve half (about 3/4 cup) of the sugar and set aside.
  • Add the cake flour, the remaining sugar (about 3/4 cup), and the salt to a medium bowl. Sift into another medium bowl. Sift the mixture back into the original bowl. This helps get rid of any lumps and creates a very fluffy light texture in the cake.
  • In a large bowl, add the orange zest, cream of tartar and egg whites. Slice the vanilla bean in half, scrape the seeds out with a knife, and add the seeds to the bowl with the egg whites. Using a hand mixer, begin to beat the egg white mixture on medium-high speed. While mixing, slowly stream in the remaining sugar. Beat the mixture until it holds medium peaks, this could take up to 10 minutes.
  • Set the mixer aside and sift a light dusting of the flour mixture on top of the egg white mixture. Use a rubber spatula to fold the flour into the egg white mixture, this is done by slicing through the middle of the mixture and folding up and over along the side of the bowl to incorporate the flour. Keep sifting and folding until all the flour mixture has been incorporated.
  • Carefully spoon the mixture into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan. Use a knife to swirl around the pan 2 times to release any unwanted air bubbles. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and cool upside down on a cooling rack. Let cool for at least 1 hour before removing the cake from the pan and cooling completely.

Cocoa Angel Food Cake with Orange Glaze image

Categories     Cake     Chocolate     Dessert     Bake     Orange     Winter     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup self-rising flour
1/3 cup sifted unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder such as Droste (sift before measuring)
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups egg whites (from 10 to 11 large eggs)
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
Orange Glaze

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. and have ready an ungreased 10-inch tube pan (about 4 inched deep) with a removable bottom.
  • In a small bowl whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and 1/2 cup sugar. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat whites with salt on medium speed until white, opaque, and beginning to hold their shape. Gradually add the remaining 3/4 cup sugar, beating at high speed until whites hold soft (not stiff), slightly glossy peaks. Beat in vanilla.
  • Sift one third cocoa mixture over whites and fold in gently but thoroughly, scraping bottom of bowl to prevent lumps. Sift and fold in remaining cocoa mixture, half at a time, in same manner and pour batter into pan. With a knife, make series of side by side chops in batter to remove air bubbles and smooth top. Bake cake in middle of oven 40 to 45 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Invert cake over neck of a bottle and cool completely.

(Alternatively, spoon glaze into a plastic bag and squeeze into one corner. Snip off corner to make small hole in bag and streak glaze over cake from center outward.)
  • While glaze is still wet (to avoid cracking), transfer cake to a platter. When glaze is set, cover cake loosely with plastic wrap or place under a cake dome and keep at room temperature until ready to serve.
  • If cake is kept more than 1 day (before or after serving), it should be wrapped in plastic wrap and frozen. Bring cake to room temperature before serving.

PAUL NEWMAN'S CHOCOLATE - ORANGE ANGEL FOOD CAKE



Paul Newman's Chocolate - Orange Angel Food Cake image

This has to be one of the most incredible desserts I have ever had -- let alone made! Paul Newman was on Oprah several years ago with this recipe of his, and it is absolutely delicious. Preparation time is an estimate, and does not include 15 minutes for bringing the egg whites to room temperature. I hope you enjoy it!

Provided by Pianolady

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces orange-flavored dark chocolate
12 large egg whites
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups sugar, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon orange rind, grated or freshly chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Make sure a 10" x 4" tube pan is clean, dry and free of grease.
  • Grate the chocolate bars on the fine holes of a cheese grater, NOT a teeny-holed citrus grater.
  • (Make sure you do find orange-flavored dark chocolate-- it is not very difficult to find, and absolutely essential to the recipe).
  • Separate the eggs, and let the egg whites come to room temperature; about 15 minutes.
  • Sift 1 cup of flour, 1/4 cup of the sugar, and the salt onto a piece of waxed paper.
  • Sift them together a total of three times.
  • Beat the egg whites until frothy.
  • Add the lemon juice and continue beating.
  • Sprinkle the remaining cup of sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, over the egg whites and continue beating at medium speed until the egg whites are glossy and form soft peaks that bend over at the top.
  • Do not overheat, or the egg whites will lose their volume.
  • Sift 1/4 cup of the dry ingredients over the egg whites and fold.
  • Gently stir in the vanilla extract and orange rind.
  • Alternately fold in the chocolate and remaining dry ingredients, working in small batches, until just incorporated.
  • Pour the batter into the tube pan and bake for 45 minutes, until the top is lightly browned.
  • A knife inserted in the center of the cake should come out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and invert the pan.
  • Allow the cake to cool for 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Run a knife around the edges of the pan and tube to loosen the cake.
  • You can serve this as is, or with a little whipped cream, or ice cream-- whatever your heart desires.
  • Enjoy!

MANDARIN ORANGE ANGEL FOOD CAKE

Recipe from Semi Homemade Cooking with Sandra Lee. My dad loved this cake and he is the one that always says everything is just OK no matter how great it is. This cake comes out so moist!

Provided by Lucky.Wife

Categories     Dessert

Time 35m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (18 ounce) box angel food cake mix
15 ounces mandarin oranges
1 tablespoon orange zest
16 ounces Cool Whip

Steps:

  • Add the juice from the oranges and the orange zest to the cake mix.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Bake in a bundt pan at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
  • Cool completly. Frost with Cool Whip and decorate with the mandarin oranges.
  • I used 3 Tbs. orange zest, but that is just a personal preference. You can also add half the caan of oranges into the batter before baking, but for some reason it always makes my cake stick to the pan. So just experiment. It is just as good with the oranges on top of the cake instead of in it.

1 tsp orange extract
1 carton (8 oz.) fat-free whipped topping, thawed
1 medium navel orange, halved and sliced

Steps:

  • 1. Slice cake into 2-inch slices
  • 2. Layer in bottom of ungreased 9 X 13-inch pan
  • 3. Poke holes in cake slices using a meat fork
  • 4. Dissolve gelatin in boiling water, then stire in cold water
  • 5. Slowly pour over cake in pan
  • 6. Chill until set
  • 7. In a large mixing bowl - Whisk together milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes
  • 8. Whisk in extract

  • 10. Fold in whipped topping and spread over cake
  • 11. Garnish with orange slices

Tips:

  • Use a light-colored cake pan for the best results. A dark pan will absorb more heat and cause the cake to brown too quickly.
  • Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before whipping them. This will help them reach their full volume and give the cake a light and fluffy texture.
  • Be careful not to overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will become dry and crumbly, and the cake will be tough.
  • Fold the egg whites into the batter gently. Overmixing will deflate the egg whites and make the cake dense.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help the cake rise evenly.
  • Do not open the oven door during the first 30 minutes of baking. This will cause the cake to fall.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
