Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes     Bundt Cake Recipes

Yield Makes 12 mini bundt cakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

Unsalted butter, softened, for molds
2 1/4 cups cake flour, plus more for molds
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups heavy cream, chilled
3 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons superfine sugar
Nonstick cooking spray
Whipped cream, for serving (optional)
Berries, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack set in lower third of the oven. Brush 12 mini Bundt cake molds with butter and dust with flour; set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Sift flour mixture twice and set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip cream on low, until soft peaks form. Gradually increase speed to medium-high as cream thickens, and whisk until stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and vanilla. With the mixer on medium-high, gradually add egg mixture; beat until thickened (like mayonnaise) and well combined. Gradually add sugar, about 30 seconds.
  • Remove the whisk attachment from the mixer. Using the whisk attachment, gently fold half the flour mixture into the cream mixture until flour is dissolved and well combined. Repeat process with remaining flour mixture. Using a large pastry bag, pipe batter into prepared cake molds and run a small metal spatula or dull knife through batter to prevent large air bubbles from forming, avoiding bottom of the pan. Smooth surface evenly with a small metal spatula.
  • Transfer pans to oven and bake until cakes springs back when lightly pressed with your finger and a cake tester inserted into cakes comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer cake pans to a wire rack and let cool 10 minutes; cakes will begin to shrink from sides of pan.
  • Spray a wire rack with nonstick cooking spray. Using a metal spatula, loosen top edges of cakes and invert onto prepared wire rack. Let cool completely. Serve with whipped cream and berries, if desired.

WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING



Whipped Cream Frosting image

Whipped cream is a light and simple option for frosting cakes and cupcakes, especially when paired with fresh fruit. The trick is making sure it doesn't get too soft before it's served. Some cooks mix in cream of tartar, which can add a sour note. We prefer powdered milk. It helps create a frosting that's stable enough for piping and layering without affecting the taste

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 10m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons non-fat or skim powdered milk
2 cups cold heavy whipping cream (see Cook's Note)
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer in the freezer until cold, about 5 minutes. Alternatively, fill the bowl with ice water and let stand for 5 minutes. Pour out the ice water and quickly wipe the bowl dry.
  • Sift the sugar and powdered milk into the chilled bowl, then add the cold cream and vanilla. Whip the mixture on high speed until stiff, but smooth peaks form, about 2 minutes. If you accidentally overwhip, the peaks will look like they are cracking. Add about a tablespoon more heavy cream and hand whip the frosting until it smooths out.
  • The recipe makes enough frosting to generously top 24 cupcakes or to cover two 8-inch-round cakes, plus extra to pipe decorations. Unrefrigerated, the frosting will hold its shape for up to 6 hours.

SWEETENED WHIPPED CREAM



Sweetened Whipped Cream image

The perfect topper for almost any dessert, including our 1-2-3-4 Lemon Cake.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Yield Makes 1 1/3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

2/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Whip the heavy cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on medium speed until soft peaks form, 2 to 4 minutes. Add the vanilla and confectioners' sugar; continue whipping on medium speed until the soft peaks return, 2 to 3 minutes. Use immediately.

Tips:

  • Use heavy cream: For the best results, use heavy cream with a fat content of at least 35%. This will ensure that your whipped cream is thick and creamy.
  • Chill your cream and beaters: Before you start whipping the cream, make sure both the cream and the beaters are chilled. This will help the cream whip up faster and more easily.
  • Whip gradually: Start whipping the cream on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium-high. This will help to prevent the cream from becoming over whipped.
  • Don't overwhip: Overwhipped cream will become grainy and stiff. Whip the cream just until it forms stiff peaks.
  • Flavor your cream: You can flavor your whipped cream with a variety of ingredients, such as vanilla extract, sugar, powdered sugar, or cocoa powder. Add the flavorings after the cream has been whipped.

Conclusion:

Whipped cream is a delicious and versatile topping that can be used on a variety of desserts. By following these tips, you can make perfect whipped cream every time. Whether you're making a simple Valentine's Day cake or a more elaborate dessert, whipped cream is the perfect finishing touch.
