Provided by Maike

Categories     Baked Goods     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick butter (unsalted, room temperature)
½ cup sugar (granulated)
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup milk
1¼ cup flour (all purpose)
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 package instant pudding mix
1 ½ cup heavy whipping cream
½ cup sugar
½ cup water (divided)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
4 cups strawberries (sliced)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Grease the bottom of an 11" tart pan and lightly sprinkle with some flour. Be sure not to grease the sides of the tart pan as this will interfere with the batter rising.
  • Use a large mixing bowl and a hand mixer and beat the softened butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt together on high speed until smooth. About 2-3 minutes.
  • Reduce the speed to low and add in one egg at a time. Allow each egg to fully incorporate into the batter before adding the next egg.
  • Slowly add the milk into the batter. Beat on low until the milk is well combined.
  • Add the flour and baking powder to the batter and continue to beat on low speed. Use a spatula to scrape the sides. Beat until the dry ingredients are well combined.
  • Pour batter into the tart pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer onto a cooling rack. Remove from the tart pan and allow it to cool completely.
  • Use a medium mixing bowl and combine instant pudding with heavy whipping cream. Use a hand mixer and whisk until the mixture is creamy. Set aside.
  • Use a small bowl and whisk 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water until there are no lumps. Set aside.
  • Use a small saucepan and bring a ¼ cup of water and ½ cup of sugar to a boil. Once the water has reached a boil, reduce the heat to medium and whisk in the liquid cornstarch into the boiling sugar water.
  • Whisk continuously for about 3-5 minutes until the mixture becomes thick and syrupy. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Once the cake has fully cooled. Spread the pudding cream mixture with a spatula or cake spreader evenly across the cake.
  • Top the filling with sliced strawberries. Use a pastry brush to glaze the strawberries. Allow to harden for 30 minutes.

Heat the mixture over moderately low heat, stirring, until the sugar and the gelatin are dissolved, set the pan in a bowl of cold water (do not add ice), and stir the mixture until it is just cool but still liquid. In a chilled large bowl with an electric mixer beat the cream until it holds soft peaks, with the motor running add the lemon mixture, beating until the mixture is just combined, and fold in the diced strawberries gently but thoroughly.

GERMAN STRAWBERRY TART / ERDBEER TORTENBODEN



German Strawberry Tart / Erdbeer Tortenboden image

Found on Tasty-german-reciipe.com to use during ZWT 6 and during our bumper crop of home-grown strawberries. This is a spongcake sort of dish underneath with strawberries and glaze on top. I envision a bit of whipped cream for to topping too, just to make it even more decadent. Because this dessert really spolights the strawberries, I recommend only making this when strawneeries are in season. And if you can find a friendly neighbor with a strawberry patch - more's the better! You can do this with small whole berries too for a breathtaking presentation.

AUSTRIAN STRAWBERRY TORTE



Austrian Strawberry Torte image

This elegant looking fruit torte is one of the recipes that a family member brought back after a stay in Germany, where strawberry season sees these cakes in all the bakeries and cafes. Thanks to her grandmother we enjoy this marvellous dessert that never fails to please. In the off season I drain canned peaches and arrange the slices making for a impressive looking dessert when fresh strawberries are not available. The original recipe calls for a package of Oetker glaze which I am not finding this past while - any of the clear fruit glaze mixes will work.

Categories     Dessert

Time 50m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/3 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups flour
2/3 cup milk
1/2 cup icing (approximately I/2 cup white icing, enough to lightly cover base)
1 1/2 lbs strawberries (enough to generously cover cake)
glaze (clear glaze, mix as directed on package)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350, grease flan pan, flour to keep from sticking - I use cooking spray to grease pan.
  • Beat sugar and eggs until fluffy, add butter, salt, baking powder, and vanilla - mix well.
  • Alternately add flour and milk.
  • Spread into a flan pan, bake for 35 - 40 minutes or until edges begin to pull away from the sides of the pan and centre is firm to the touch.
  • Carefully remove from pan, cool on cake rack,when cool place cake on your special serving platter, ice bottom lightly using just enough to seal the cake, give it a few minutes to dry before adding the fruit.
  • Arrange strawberries ( I cut the strawberries in half arranging concentrically starting at the edge - for variation make a 'strawberry flower' in the centre using about five strawberry halves then arrange the rest of the berries around to the edge) you may go with halving, slicing or whole berries when arranging your fruit - whatever works best for you .
  • Prepare glaze according to directions cooling slightly and pour over.

STRAWBERRY TORTE



Strawberry Torte image

This beautiful swirled torte is almost too pretty to eat. Almost.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

Unsalted butter, for pan
8 extra-large eggs, room temperature, separated
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup cake flour (not self-rising)
2 teaspoons sifted baking powder
1 pint heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, plus more for work towel
1 quart strawberries, washed, dried, and hulls removed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and line a rimmed 15-by-10-by-1-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat egg yolks and sugar together until light in color, about 1 minute; stir in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Add cake flour and baking powder; stir until well combined.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into flour mixture.
  • Pour cake batter in prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon. Transfer baking sheet to oven and bake until cake springs back when touched, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, set 6 strawberries aside for garnish. Thinly slice remaining strawberries. Place heavy cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; beat on medium speed. Slowly add remaining teaspoon vanilla and 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar. Continue beating until soft peaks form. Set half of the whipped cream aside. Gently fold sliced strawberries into remaining half; set aside.
  • Lay a clean kitchen towel flat on a work surface with one of the short ends facing you. Generously sprinkle dish towel with confectioners' sugar. Flip cake onto towel, remove baking sheet, and peel off parchment paper. Using the dish towel, roll cake away from you; let cool.
  • Unroll cake. Evenly spread strawberry whipped-cream mixture over surface of the cake and re-roll. Transfer cake to a serving plate and evenly spread top and sides of cake with reserved whipped cream. Cut reserved whole strawberries in half lengthwise and place on top of cake for garnish.

Tips:

  • For a classic Bavarian torte, use a combination of strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries.
  • If you want a more decadent torte, add a layer of chocolate ganache or whipped cream.
  • To make a gluten-free torte, use gluten-free ladyfingers or graham cracker crumbs.
  • For a vegan torte, use vegan cream cheese and butter.
  • To make a no-bake torte, use a combination of gelatin and cream cheese.

Conclusion:

Strawberry Bavarian torte is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed year-round. With its creamy filling, fresh strawberries, and crisp ladyfingers, this torte is sure to be a hit at any gathering. Whether you're looking for a classic recipe or a more modern twist, there's a Strawberry Bavarian torte recipe out there for everyone.
