The Best Chocolate Sheet Cake. Always.

When I posted my inalterable recipe for "The First Pasta E'er," I would not hit predicted that I feel at the end of Lawmaker, echt whippy European who lives moral Metropolis, in Italy, where the dish was created. And I change I could never anticipate the supporter, who lives in Italy and in the neighborhood to buy a bag Parmiganno-Regianno relating to it. I could only go ahead at this point and to clarify that yes, my lasagna is actually the "Best Ever" ... unless you live near Bologna, Italy or the Italian neighborhood or close to Mario Batali. Ok? Are you happy now, Draco? Troublemaker.
Now ... this cake? This cake is another story. There is absolutely no doubt the best chocolate cake sheet. Ever. It is moist, without imagination, the rich chocolate and no tomorrow, and 100% of the time, causes groans of those who takes a

bite.

Cast of characters. Very simple ingredients, perfect for us who live in the Pioneer women out of the country, and almost no Dutch processed cocoa, Madagascar vanilla and cream. Everything you need for this wonderful dessert is sugar, flour, salt, butter, cocoa, baking soda, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, powdered sugar, milk and pecans. Are you ready? Let's dance with the devil

First, melt two sticks on a regular basis (unsalted) butter in a saucepan. Even if you melt, boil 1 cup of water.
When the butter is melted, add 4 tablespoons cocoa powder fills ...
And mix well.





When the heat is on, pour the boiling water ...




And let the mixture bubble for 30 seconds.

Extinguish the fire. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, 2 cups sugar ...

And 1 / 4 teaspoon salt.

Stir together.


Pour the hot butter / chocolate mixture on top of ...

And mix a little, just to cool the chocolate.
In a measuring cup, pour 1 / 2 cup buttermilk.

Pioneering female back-up plan: Living outside the country, I often find myself missing important ingredients in many recipes and learn to improvise. I usually do not have buttermilk in the fridge when I want to make this cake, here is what I do: Pour a little 'less than half a cup of regular milk measure, then add enough vinegar to regular milk to bring the number up to half glass. In a few seconds, turns sour, and it works perfectly. Try a little '

For buttermilk, add 2 beaten eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla ...

And 1 teaspoon of baking powder. Stir.

Add buttermilk mixture to the chocolate mixture / flour.

Stir together well.

I use this in a commercial oven, but nothing of Jelly Roll pan will do.

Pour into greased pulpy ...

And spread evenly.

Bake the cake 350 degrees for 20 minutes. While the cake is cooking, it's time to do evil, decadent frosting.

Chop 1 / 2 cup nuts ...

In fairly small pieces. Keep Choppin 'smaller and crisp, the better.

In a saucepan (I always wash and use the same as above), melt 1 3 / 4 sticks butter regular (not to be confused with 1 1 / 2 stick or two sticks, for the love of Pete.)

Once the butter has melted, add 4 tablespoons of cocoa powder is filled.

Stir and let bubble for 30 seconds. Extinguish the fire.

Add 6 tablespoons of milk ...

And a teaspoon of vanilla. Mix together.

Then add the sugar 1 kilo of powder. In fact, I would add about 1 / 2 cup less than 1 pound, but I was too embarrassed to admit that I would not be able to tell you how much. Then add a pound, but remember a little, and do not ask me how it is because I hate math.

Mix ...

Then add chopped pecans ...

And mix together again. She pioneered MEDICAL ALERT: If you're my punk-ass sister, Wetsy, and the throat closes and the head swells to three times its size, if you swallow a small grain of walnut wood, you can certainly omit pecans. Just be sure to mix the frosting well enough to get rid of small lumps of sugar, because you do not have the nuts to break them. (Wow. I just said "nuts.") And yes, you can sift the icing sugar in advance, but usually can never be bothered with this nonsense.

Now pour the evil, adulterous, evil frosting over warm cake ridiculous.

Trying to pour over the entire surface, so you will not have to do a lot of applications.

The heat from the cake to do the hard work for you, causing stupidly delicious icing to spread on their own. You will need help along a little, but unless you have to spread the better.

Sigh. Before you sink your teeth into this beautiful creation, take a few moments. Pause and reflect on how fortunate we are as human beings. In order to monitor the various ingredients in our kitchens. In order to exploit all the energy needed to heat the oven. Melt the butter. You can cut the nuts. Eating ... eat ... chocolate.

Birthday Cake Gryffindor

 This is the first of two (yes, two!) Harry Potter birthday cakes. Am I going crazy? he asks. I am simply not a Muggle, but in fact the wizards pie-maker, pretending to do science, and cooking the hard way? Uh, no. I've been asked to do two children's birthday cake this weekend (the names of E and L, if one were to question), the funds that are going towards our fundraising cycle in Paris. (Just give IRDB).

It's amazing cakes to produce more frightening when people pay for them. Pressure / bar just a clumsy piece of cake, but more about that with the next record. It was a simple Victoria sponge with some winning ingredients you have to visit a pastry shop ...

Gryffindor decorative bits:


* Sugarflair red, black extra, brown and yellow paste food coloring (yellow supercook is just ok, but you need more focused on others)

* Toothpicks

* Icing

* Flower paste (see www.sugaricing.com to order some. Or buy something "ready to roll icing," which works the same)

To some decorations Harry Potteresque first take the sugar paste / glaze and roll into a ball. Use a toothpick to drop food coloring on the ball and gently knead in the color. Add more until the desired color is reached. This works for brush, goggles and a scarf (yellow bits). To make the red stripes, I took a brush to apply red color directly. Do all of parchment paper dusted with icing sugar, and, ideally, wear gloves (yes, now you can feel like a scientist too! Or a compulsive hair-Dyer). When finished, leaving the characters on a cookie sheet (as above) to dry for several hours or overnight. When you are ready, they will be difficult and can easily be picked up and put on the cake.

Ok, now for the cake. Easy Peasy bits. This is a classic Victoria sponge recipe 4 eggs. Use this to every single cake filled with jam and cream, or make the butter cream on top and filling. Or just dust the top with icing sugar. Make some butter or chocolate and cover it all. The possibilities are endless.

Ingredients


* 8 ounces of each of the SR flour, butter, powdered sugar

* 4 eggs, beaten

* 1 teaspoon vanilla

* 2 teaspoons baking powder

* 200 g icing sugar

* 100 g unsalted butter

* 1 c. teaspoon vanilla

* 1-2 tablespoons milk

* Jam or fruit filling
Preheat the oven at 5 °, 190 ° C. Grease and line two 8 "plates. Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, and another bowl beat eggs and vanilla. In addition Alternatively, screening more than one third of the flour and baking powder, after third of the egg mixture and mix briefly to incorporate. Repeat twice more, stirring just before the end everything is evenly combined (do not overdo it). Pour the mixture between two tins and bake for 20 minutes, until cake is springy to the touch. Let cool in pan.

For buttercream, melt together butter, powdered sugar and vanilla. Add a little 'milk until frosting is easily spreadable, but be careful not to add too much or become watery. Assemble the cake using the jam / fruit and buttercream filling and freeze up, too. Finally, place decorations in the center of Gryffindor. You can stop, take some leftover frosting and dyeing with food coloring, then use a piping bag and nozzle star shape around a colored dot to the top edge. Ta daa! Just like magic.

F course, you do not have a cake at all Gryffindor. A cake of Slytherin require the purchase of a color (green), after all.

But then it might be a bad cake.

Suffice it to say.

Maida said to fall only rounded teaspoons chocolate dishes, covered with peanut butter and butter and then another layer of chocolate. There was no way the cement paste that fell anywhere, so use your fingers to shape it into something more or less circular and flat. The first batch of chocolate dough makes 30 cookies promised, so the peanut butter and paste the rest of the chocolate fashion in newspapers, unprepared, whether and cut each into 30 pieces, even for s to ensure that all those who work in the final. While Maida suggested that flatten slightly at the end of the process with a fork dipped in sugar, which were the overthrow of the towers of the mass, so that each layer flat - it was soft.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Ripple
Bake 15 minutes, no more - crisp as they cool, Maida as promised. But they were far from being the "very thin, candylike crackers" to "manage [d] carefully - is fragile," as described. Not at all thin and crispy around the edges. And the concentric circles, as shown were far from reality.
* I had some unsweetened chocolate Trader Joe's house, which was never the case before going to the United States in April and brought him back. Probably 70 percent used or did not have to. I knew a bit of curiosity - like taking a bite of bitter Droste, even for those who love chocolate, dark enough to put hair on your chest.

Molded Chocolates

Beautiful, basic molded chocolates surprisingly easy to create a house! We will show you how!

Chocolate Selection

There are two types of chocolate can be used in stamping: coating of frosting and candy.

Coverage is of high quality chocolate. Black chocolate coating contains cocoa liquor, sugar, cocoa butter and vanilla. This type of chocolate known best by far, but is expensive and difficult to work because it requires nerve.

Chocolate confectionery coating is not true, although it may contain cocoa liquor. Confectionery coating contains vegetable fats instead of cocoa butter, making it much more stable, but it has different rich and complex flavors of high quality chocolate. Confectionery coating is great to use when you make candy with the children. It also comes in a rainbow of colors and flavors of chocolate and more.

Essential Equipment


Most candy molds are plastic and are relatively inexpensive, so you can store a variety of shapes and sizes for different occasions. If you make chocolate lollipops, do not forget to buy lollipop sticks, too. For the chocolate-colored, will have small brushes and food dyes soluble in fat, which is available at craft stores and cookware shops. Finally, you need a knife or metal spatula to smooth compensation and scrape the excess chocolate after pouring into the mold.

How to melt chocolate

When melting chocolate or candy coating, there are a couple of Major League bans. Do not allow water or other liquid in contact with it, or "grab". And it is not too hot. The excess heat and the reason for distinguishing the chocolate, which makes the system unusable.

You can check the temperature of the chocolate by dabbing a small amount of it on your lips or inside of your wrist. It should be warm, not hot.

Coverage of chocolate and some brands of couverture chocolate discs come in small simple fusion. If you use a large block of chocolate, cut into small pieces so that the uniform background. The best way is on a cutting board with a serrated knife.

To melt chocolate or confectionery coating:

* In the microwave: This is a very simple way to melt the chocolate, put it in the microwave in a bowl, and once the product is its high power, stirring every 10 seconds each time, until it is completely dissolved.

* In a slow cooking: slow cooker, set on low heat, melt the chocolate and ideal to keep it at ideal temperature when you're working. You just need to stir occasionally and keep an eye on it to make sure it is not too hot. If it is not too hot, turn off the slow cooker, remove the add and mix in a couple of copies of unmelted chocolate to cool it quickly.

* In a double boiler: This method lets you control the higher the temperature, and is better for high-quality chocolate. Set up your bathroom with a small amount of water - the water should not touch the top pot - and reheat over medium-low. Melt the chocolate, stirring occasionally, until mixture is smooth, remove from heat.

Once the chocolate is melted and smooth, it can clean and dry spoon plastic plastic bottles. Set bottles in a bowl of hot water to keep the right temperature while you work. Be sure to dry the bottle well before using chocolate.

Colorful molds

A complex multi-color candy, buy different colors of the layer of caramel and some small brushes for food security. Paint one color at a time on the surface of the mold and allowed to harden before moving to the next color. Once each color has set, fill the mold with the color you like chocolate.

For advanced chocolate: you can buy online pure cocoa butter or in specialty food stores. Gently melt the cocoa butter as you would chocolate. Tint it with fat-soluble paint and mold. Colored cocoa butter can also be added to the melted white chocolate and hardened. Cocoa butter is very expensive so use sparingly.

Fill the molds

* Fill each mold slowly with a squeeze bottle, spoon, or by pouring chocolate into a measuring cup.

* Using a palette knife or spatula, scrape the excess chocolate into a clean bowl, can be gently warmed and reused.

* When the back of the mold is smooth and uniform, gentle pressure on the tray of chocolates on the kitchen table to pop the bubbles.

* If you make lollipops, insert sticks, turning gently so they are completely coated with chocolate.

* To harden chocolate quickly, place it in the freezer for a few minutes.

* When the chocolate is firm enough to exit from the mold, invert the mold everything clean towel and squeeze very gently release the chocolate.
