Apple Cinnamon Cake

Cinnamon and apple have a nice little friendship, don’t they? They lift each other up as only real friends do. And although they’re completely different when they’re apart, together they form an entity of their own flavor: apple-cinnamon. Just saying the word reminds one of the combinations of warm, cozy spice and soft, sweet apples. And this combination (with little chopped walnuts for a little crunch) is just the pair to flavor a simple everyday cake like this one.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 large apple, peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

How to make it:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the eggs and oil. Add the cinnamon, white and brown sugars, and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  3. Add the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder, and mix until thoroughly incorporated. Fold in the apples and the nuts and pour batter into prepared pan.
  4. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

  1. Prepare the cheesecake filling: In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream cheese together until silky smooth. Then add in the brown sugar and continue beating until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the banana cream instant pudding powder and heavy cream together. Use a whisk to combine the mixture together until the pudding powder dissolves- it’s okay if it is not completely smooth. Pour this mixture into the bowl with the cream cheese and continue beating together until everything is combined with no visible lumps present. Then add in the vanilla bean paste and almond extract, and beat again to fully combine.
  3. Pour the cheesecake filling directly on top of the cooled crust. The cheesecake batter should be thick, use an offset spatula to smooth the filling out evenly in the pan. Cover the baking pan carefully with plastic wrap or foil and transfer the pan into the refrigerator to let the cheesecake set overnight for at least 8 hours or ideally for 12 hours (for best results).

Serving

  1. Take the cheesecake out of the refrigerator and carefully lift the parchment paper sides out. Place the cheesecake onto a large enough plate or board. Then use a large knife to cut it into squares- I like to run my knife under hot water in between slicing to ensure clean/neat cuts. 
  2. Garnish the cheesecake squares with a dollop of banana cream pudding, mini nilla wafers, banana coins, and fresh mint leaves, if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

  1. Storing: Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator, covered/without garnishes, for up to one week. You can also freeze the cheesecake bars for 3 weeks.

Ding Dong Cake

This Copycat Hostess Ding Dong Cake recipe is a rich, decadent chocolate cake, with a creamy filling and chocolate ganache spread over the top!

Ingredients

Cake:
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened dark chocolate cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • ½ cup milk

Cream Filling:
  • 5 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar

Ganache:
  • 1 bag (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate morsels
  • 1 ¼ cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions

Cake:
  1. Spray two 9-inch cake pans with baking spray. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Set aside.
  3. In a measuring cup, combine cooled coffee with milk*. Set aside.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar for 5 minutes with an electric mixer. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Slowly add in dry ingredients and alternate with the coffee/milk mixture (about 3 additions of each).
  5. Once all the ingredients are added, beat cake mixture for about 2-3 minutes until fluffy (scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed).
  6. Divide cake batter into the two cake pans. Bake in oven for 25 minutes. Remove and allow to cool about 10 minutes in pan. Invert on a wire rack and cool completely.

Cream Filling:
  1. In a small saucepan, combine the flour with milk, whisking until lumps removed. Turn on medium heat and continue to whisk until mixture becomes thick, like a pudding.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Cool completely.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine butter and sugar, beat until light and fluffy (about 4 minutes). Slowly add in the COOLED milk mixture, beating until combined. It may curdle slightly in the beginning, that's okay, keep beating until it becomes the texture of whipped cream!

Ganache:
  1. In a glass bowl (safe for the microwave) combine semi sweet chocolate with heavy cream. Heat for 1 minute. Remove from microwave and stir until smooth (you may need to heat for another 15-30 seconds). Do not over heat. Set aside while you begin to assemble the cake.

Assemble:
  1. Place first layer of cooled cake on a cake plate. Top it with ALL of the cream filling. Add the second layer of cake on top.
  2. Slowly pour the ganache over the cake, using an offset spatula to help cover the top and sides. Allow to set, about 15 minutes. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

*The coffee in the cake does NOT give it a coffee flavor, it just boosts the chocolate flavor. If you desire, you can replace the ½ cup of coffee with an additional ½ cup of milk instead (making the total amount 1 cup of milk)

Enjoy!!

I have another fabulous copycat recipe for you today; Cheesecake Factory Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake!

The Cheesecake Factory is known for their fabulous, decadent cakes and cheesecakes. This Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake is one of my favorites to order there, but it’s a treat to have only once {or twice} a year.

If you love Cheesecake Factory’s Cheesecake Cakes, then check out my copycat Carrot Cake Cheesecake Cake. I served this cake at a dinner party, and everyone loved it, it was a real show-stopper! 

It’s a labor of love and completely worth it! The cheesecake layer between layers of red velvet cake topped with cream cheese icing is delicious and beautiful to look at.

The creamy layers of Red Velvet Cheesecake combine perfectly with the delicious sweet cream cheese filling and are indispensable nowadays because they are delicious and also easy to make.

  • 1 box red velvet cake mix, plus ingredients called for on the box


CHEESECAKE LAYER

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 c. sour cream

  3. Prepare red velvet cake batter according to box directions. Pour your batter in the prepared cake pan.
  4. Bake for 30 to 32 minutes.
  5. Let cool slightly in cake pan then remove, use a cake leveler to make sure the top is even and flat -set aside.


Make the cheesecake layer:

  1. In a large bowl using a hand mixer or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese and sugar until fluffy and combined, 3 minutes.
  2. Add eggs, one a time, until combined.
  3. Add sour cream, flour, vanilla, and salt and beat until combined.
  4. Pour filling into a SEPARATE 9′ springform pan, use parchment paper to line it then bake until only slightly jiggly in the center, about 1 hour.
  5. Let cool slightly, then transfer to the freezer to cool completely and firm up before assembling on top of the red velvet cake layer. Use a cake leveler again if needed/desired to achieve even layers.

NOTE if you would prefer to bake them together, just bake the cake first in the springform pan, then add the cheesecake layer on top of the baked cake & bake until the cheesecake layer is slightly jiggly- then stick in freezer until completely cooled & firm.

  1. Add all the ingredients to a mixing bowl.
  2. Using a large balloon whisk, whisk together the ingredients by hand for about five minutes until soft peaks start to form.

  5. Then spread the whipped cream over the top of the cheesecake.

BANANA PUDDING CAKE

Tuesday, October 5, 2021

 

Banana Pudding Cake is a fun variation of our favourite summer staple, making your dose even easier to get. All the classic ingredients of banana pudding wrapped in an addictive cake!


Hi everyone! It’s Kellie from The Suburban Soapbox again and I’m addicted to Banana Pudding. I guess there are worse things than being an addict, but I love making banana pudding (and of course banana bread) because it’s so easy to make and you can play with the flavours endlessly by making your own versions, like this chocolate banana pudding that I could just dive into right now.


Banana pudding is such a great dessert to make for summer that I thought…why not turn this southern classic into a Banana Pudding CAKE!!


Let me tell you…this Banana Pudding Cake is one of the best recipes I have ever made. And it may even be a little easier than the Banana Pudding itself.


Yes, of course, you have to turn on the oven but it’s not that bad because I used a canned cake mix, so this recipe is not complicated at all.


What is banana pudding?

Classic banana pudding is a southern dessert made with layers of sweet banana or vanilla custard, crushed cookies and banana slices topped with whipped cream (you can find our favourite banana pudding recipe here). It is usually served in a baking dish and appears especially during the summer months as a no-bake dessert.


I really wanted to make sure that the flavour of a classic banana pudding recipe was present in the cake, so I made this cake into a Banana Pudding Poke Cake! This allowed the banana pudding to sink deep into the holes and turn the cake into a moist banana paradise.


What is a Poke Cake? And how do you make a Banana Pudding Cake?

A “Poke Cake” is exactly what it sounds like…a baked cake in which you poke holes after baking. The holes are then filled with a custard, jelly or pudding that is poured over the cake while it is still warm. This allows the flavours to infuse the cake and keep it moist.


BANANA PUDDING CAKE

Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 eggs, separated
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 48 Sunshine Vanilla Wafers
  • 4 bananas (well-ripened)
  • 1/4 cup sugar

Directions

  1. Scald milk in top of a double boiler over direct heat. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the beaten egg yolks, 2/3 cup of sugar, salt and cornstarch. Pour about 1/2 cup of scalded milk over egg mixture, stirring to blend. Return egg mixture to remaining milk in top of double boiler and set top in place over boiling water.
  2. Cook, stirring until mixture is smooth and thickened (about 6 minutes). Remove from heat and add vanilla.
  3. Arrange alternate layers of vanilla wafers and sliced bananas in a 9-inch square cake an or in a 1-1/2 quart casserole. Pour hot custard over the top and allow to cool.
  4. Heat oven to 425 F (moderately hot oven). Beat whites until stiff but not dry. Add remaining 1/4 cup sugar gradually, continuing to beat until meringue is very stiff and glossy. Spread over pudding and brown in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Makes 6 to 8 servings.

Enjoy!!

New York Cheesecake

Simple and easy ! My whole family loves this recipe so much. If it were for them, I’d be making this every day! Give it a shot, you’ll love it!
This classic New York Cheesecake with strawberry sauce is easy to make, smooth, creamy, and irresistible.To Make this Recipe You’ Will Need the following ingredients:


INGREDIENTS:

  • 5 large eggs, room temperature

  • 2 cups (one pint) sour cream, room temperature

  • 4 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature

  • 8 tablespoons (one stick) unsalted butter, room temperature

  • 1 1/2 cups sugar

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest


DIRECTIONS:

  1. Generously butter the inside of a 10-inch springform pan. Wrap a double layer of heavy-duty aluminum foil tightly around the outside bottom and sides, crimping and pleating the foil to make it conform to the pan. This will help to prevent water seeping into the pan when you put it into the bain-marie. Position the baking rack in the center of the oven; preheat the oven to 300* Fahrenheit.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the eggs with the sour cream until well blended.
  3. In a medium-sized bowl, beat the cream cheese with the butter until smooth and creamy. Add this to the egg-sour cream mixture and beat until smooth.
  4. Add the sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, lemon juice and lemon zest and beat thoroughly about 2 minutes.
  5. Pour into the prepared springform pan and place in a roasting pan (or other pans) large enough to prevent the sides from touching. Place in the oven and carefully pour in enough very hot tap water to reach halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
  6. Bake for 2 hours, 15 minutes, or until the cake is very lightly colored and a knife inserted in the center emerges clean. Remove from the water bath and carefully peel the aluminum foil from around the pan. Let stand at room temperature until completely cool, about 4 hours. Refrigerate, covered, until well chilled. For best flavor and texture, this cheesecake is best chilled overnight.

Enjoy!!

No Bake White Chocolate Peppermint Lasagna

White Chocolate Peppermint Lasagna, such a great holiday season dessert. The combination of creamy, crunchy, and minty provided a nostalgic introduction to the Christmas season.

I made the Layered Peppermint Lasagna Dessert because of the huge success of my Layered Pumpkin Lasagna Dessert & Chocolate Lasagna. I developed this recipe for the Christmas season. Gotta say, it was pretty darn tasty. Notice the “was”, meaning there is none left. It went fast.


INGREDIENTS

  • 1 package Golden Oreos

  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter melted

  • 1/2 cup butter

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  • 9-10 peppermint candy canes (6-inch each) unwrapped (about 3/4 cup – 1 cup crushed)

  • 16 oz cool whip

  • 2 3.4 oz white chocolate pudding mix

  • 3 cups cold milk

  • white chocolate bar to make the curls (or sprinkle with 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips)
 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Crush the whole package of cookies either with a food processor, or take out your frustrations and do with a rolling pin.
  2. In a small bowl mix crumbs with melted butter. Press Oreo crumbs/butter mixture into bottom of 9X13 pan to form a crust. Make chocolate pudding according to package directions and let it setup in the fridge.
  3. Crush the peppermint candies to small bits either with a food processor, or do with a rolling pin. Reserve about 1/2 cup to sprinkle on top of dessert when it’s done.
  4. Pulse few times remaining 1/2 cup of peppermint candies, until fine crumbs (NOT UNTIL POWDERED).
  5. Using electric mixer, mix half of Cool Whip, softened cream cheese, butter and confectioners sugar in a large bowl. Stir in 1/2 cup of the fine crushed candies. Spread over cookie crust.
  6. Spread the pudding over the previous layer, then your remaining half of cool whip on top. Top with white chocolate curls or shavings and sprinkle with reserved peppermint crumbs on top.
  7. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
