Chocolate Cake with Mocha Frosting
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Easy
Total: 1 hr 45 min (includes cooling time)
Active: 35 min
Yield: 12 servings
Ingredients
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
3 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup hottest tap water
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, such as Droste Cocoa Powder
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
2/3 cup half-and-half
Mocha Frosting, recipe follows
Mocha Frosting:
12 ounces bittersweet chocolate, such as Lindt, 1/4-inch-chopped
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced, at room temperature
2 teaspoons instant espresso powder
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon Kahlua
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-by-2-inch baking pan. Line with parchment paper, then grease and flour the pan.
Place the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium speed for 4 to 5 minutes, until light and fluffy, scraping down the bowl. On medium speed, add the vanilla, then beat in the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated and the batter is smooth.
Sift the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. In another bowl or a liquid measuring cup, whisk together the hot water, cocoa powder, and espresso powder until smooth. Add the half-and-half and whisk until smooth. With the mixer on low, add the flour and chocolate mixtures alternately in thirds, starting and ending with the flour. With a rubber spatula, scrape down the bowl to be sure the batter is well mixed.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely in the pan. Turn out onto a flat platter or board and frost the top with the Mocha Frosting. Cut in squares and serve.
Mocha Frosting:
Place the chocolate, butter, and espresso powder in a bowl. Heat the cream to simmer and pour it over the chocolate mixture, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted. (If the chocolate isn't melted, microwave the mixture for 15 seconds.) Stir in the Kahlua and vanilla and stir until the mixture is smooth. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes only, until cool but not cold.
Scrape down the bowl and beat the frosting with a handheld mixer on high speed for 15 to 20 seconds only, until the mixture forms soft peaks. (If you overbeat it, it will curdle!) Spread on the cake immediately with a metal spatula.

Rose Cookies | Christmas Sweets
Rose Cookies? Did you ask for Rose Cookies? I'm glad you did. I enjoy making these because they're easy, quick, and of course, deliciously crunchy & crisp :) They are perfect additions to your box/plate of ‘Kuswar’ that you arrange delicately for family and friends at Christmas ???? The video has tips that may help you master the preparation of rose cookies!
These Rose cookies have different names— Gulabi Puvvulu in Telugu, Acchu Murukku in Tamil, and Achapam in Malayalam. There can be slight changes where coconut milk is used instead of milk, or just water, for the batter, and egg/eggless recipes too. In my experience this recipe works best in terms of taste as well as crispness.
For Other Christmas Sweets Recipes:

Goan Dodol:
Ingredients for Rose Cookies:
1 Whole Egg
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 Cup Powdered Sugar
1/2 Cup Milk (room temperature) plus additional 1/3 Cup (approximately) for making a fluid batter
1 Cup Maida (All-Purpose Flour)
1/3 Cup Rice Flour
1 Tablespoon Cooking Oil
1 teaspoon Black Sesame Seeds
Oil for frying
• When preparing the batter, first make it thick; ensure that there are no lumps, then continue adding the additional milk a little at a time, till you attain the right consistency. When lifted off, the batter flowing off the whisk/ladle must form ribbons upon the surface of the batter that quickly spread and merge with the mix.
• I bought my Rose Cookie mould from a local store near me. The handle has a bent arm with a rigid mould attachment, making it like a singular piece. That allows me to turn and tap the handle of the mould after dipping it in the batter. Also, it helps shake the mould and release the cookie into the oil.
• The Milk can be substituted with Coconut milk. You may cut back a little on the Sugar if using the latter.
• The mould must be heated enough before dipping it into the batter. Keep the gas-stove flame at low-medium. The oil mustn't get too hot; the cookie may fail to come off the mould then. In such a case, let the Oil cool a little. Use a fork/knife if the cookies don't detach from the mould by merely agitating the mould.
• These cookies can last for weeks if stored properly in airtight containers. But they're so good, they'll be gone in a couple of days if not hours????

Ultimate Fudgy Brownies | Egg & Eggless Version
Ultimate Brownies | Egg & Eggless Versions – I know I’ve made the egg version some time ago. I have modified a little and this is definitely an improvised version. I’ve also shown you how to make the eggless version, since I’ve been getting this request from time to time. Although the look (especially the surface of each version) may look different, but both fudgy texture and taste are pretty much similar. I love making brownies because they are super easy to make and my kids love them. I hope you’ll be inspired to make some bagels. Give me your comment down below in the comment box what you think about both the versions. Enjoy!

Eggless version:
Ingredients:
• Brownies (Egg Version)
200g [1½ cup] dark chocolate, compound coins chocolates (although I provided the cup measurement, but I do recommend that you used a weighing scale for the chocolate, because chocolate comes with various forms. They can be in chips or chunks or coins like mine, all could weigh differently in cups.
115g [½ cup] unsalted butter
75g [¼ cup + 2 tbsp] white sugar
75g [¼ cup + 2 tbsp] brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp salt
90g [¾ cup] all-purpose flour
25g [¼ cup] cocoa powder
Instructions:
1. In a bowl, add chocolate and butter. Melt them over a double boiler. Be careful do not apply to strong heat as it can affect the chocolate texture and will not be smooth. Make sure they are well melted. Set aside for cooling.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add the sugars and eggs. I recommend to use an electric mixer. Mix on high speed until the batter is creamy, pale and volume doubled.
3. Add in vanilla extract and salt. Mix until combined.
4. Add in the melted chocolate mixture. Mix until well combined.
5. Sift in the dry ingredients, flour and cocoa powder. Fold in until combined. Do not over mix.
6. Transfer batter into an 8x8 inch prepared pan, grease and lined with parchment paper. Level the surface with the spatula.
7. Bake in preheated oven at 175°C/350°F for 30 minutes. If you prefer a bit more gooey, you may go for 25 minutes.
8. Cut the cake with a hot knife. (You may soak the knife in hot water. This is optional)
9. Cake can be served warm with a scoop of ice cream or a cold milk.
