Cannoli Crumb Cake Recipe

Awhile back, I got a reply from one of my emails requesting a coffee cake recipe. Up until now, I haven't had a coffee cake recipe up on the blog, but I determined that I really needed one, plus that email kind of gave me a craving for one. I'm calling this one a crumb cake... you can see why in the blog post.

It's kind of the 'tomato' 'to-mah-to' thing. Crumb cake....coffee cake...I'm just using them interchangeably here and calling this one a Cannoli Crumb Cake.

I wanted to make something a little different than the normal coffee cake/crumb cake. Historically, a cannoli is made with ricotta cheese, but I'm not really a stickler for rules, so I went with cream cheese...mainly because I LOVE me some cream cheese.

There's also cinnamon and mini chocolate chips and that combination is insanely good.

This cake is really moist with pockets of cream cheese running through it. It's great with a cup of coffee at breakfast, or just do like I did and eat it at lunch and dinner as well ;)

Ingredients for Sponge Cake - /Pan di Spagna:-
6 large eggs at room temperature
2 1/3 cups all purpose flour (300 grams)
1 1/2 cups of sugar (300 grams)
1 tsp vanilla/lemon/anisette essence (optional)
9 inch spring form
Parchment paper

Ingredients for Cannoli Cream:-
2 lbs whole milk ricotta (drained at least 12 hours)
2 cups confectioners sugar (250 grams)
1/2 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips (100 grams)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of cinnamon

Ingredients for Simple Syrup/Bagna:-
1 cup of water (240 ml)
1/2 cup sugar (100 grams)
2 oz Grand Marnier Liqueur (60 ml) rum can also be used
3 peels of orange
1 cinnamon stick

Ingredients for Whipped Cream:-
16 oz heavy whipping cream (480ml)
2/3 cup confectioners sugar (90 grams)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Almonds:-
2 cups sliced almonds (1/4 lb)

Directions:-
For Sponge Cake - /Pan di Spagna:-
Please note- It is very important that the eggs are at room temperature but if you’re like me I never remember to take them out of the refrigerator in time. What I’ve discovered that if cold eggs placed in hot tap water for 5 minutes or while I get my other ingredients together they’ll be ready to use.

Step#1- Mix eggs and sugar together. Using a stand up mixer or hand held mixer beat until light and airy and tripled in size.
Step#2- Add the flour in thirds and each time fold in using a spatula. Gently fold moving from bottom to top. Gentle movements so that the batter remains airy and fluffy.
Step#3- Using cooking spray and grease the spring form. Cut a circle of parchment paper and cover the bottom. Now cut 2 strips of parchment paper about 4 inches tall and the length of the roll.
Step#4-Place on the side of pan.
Step#5- Pour batter and bake in pre heated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit(180 Celsius )for 40 minutes. This can be made the day before.

For Cannoli Cream:-
Step#1- In a large bowl add ricotta, confectioners sugar, vanilla and cinnamon.
Step#2- Mix with a handheld mixer for a few minutes until creamy. Using a spatula incorporate chocolate chips.
Step#3- Place in the refrigerator until ready to use.

For Simple Syrup/Bagna:-
Step#1- Bring to a boil the water, sugar, cinnamon and peels.
Step#2- Boil for a few minutes until sugar is dissolved. Cool and strain.
Step#3- Add the liqueur and set aside. It can be made the day before and stored in the refrigerator.

For Whipped Cream:-
Step#1- Place heavy cream in the freezer for about 5 minutes before whipping.
Step#2- Using a handheld mixer or a stand up mixer start whipping cream at high speed. Step#3- Add confectioners sugar a tablespoon at a time. Add the vanilla. Once cream is formed don’t over whip. Set aside in the refrigerator until ready to assemble cake.

For Almonds:-
Step#1- In a 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) toast almonds until golden, about 10 minutes. Careful not to burn.

For Assembling Cake:-
Step#1- Cut the sponge cake in 3 even disks/rounds. The bottom of the cake which is very even will be used on top. Sorry sounds confusing, please refer to the video.
Step#2- In the middle of serving plate add a tablespoon of ricotta cream. Add your first sponge cake disk. Cream will help cake not slide off plate.
Step#3- Using a spoon slowly wet the cake with liqueur syrup. Now add ricotta cream and spread evenly.
Step#4- Place another cake disk on top and do the same with the syrup. Add ricotta cream on this layer too.
Step#5- Final cake disk on top, wet with the remainder of syrup.
Step#6- Spread a thin layer of whipped cream all around the cake. This acts as a glueing agent the almonds. Using the palm of your hand attach almonds all around the cake.
Step#7- Using a piping bag and a star/flower tip. (I used Wilton 8B) pipe little rosettes on top of cake in a circular style. Starting from the outer rim and working your way towards the middle.
Step#8- Decorate with chocolate chips.
Step#9- Let the cake rest in the refrigerator so the flavors all come together.

Enjoy!
