Stained Glass Chocolate Truffle Cake with Italian Frangelico
#Italian #Christmas #dessert Very unique cake recipe found in the CHOCOLATIER magazine vol. 1 No 4. in the year 1984, on page 56 and was called the Christmas Jewel Box Cake and was created by Megan Timothy, innkeeper, actress, and chef at La Maida House in California. Her beautiful floral decorations are far beyond mine and better done and I left out the rolled fondant. I did include the full recipe below. and made mention of the things I did differently. The bottle of Frangelico was barely enough for two cakes. The second cake would have been moister if I had enough to Frangelico to soak into the cake sections, but I made it do. it was still delicious. Perfect comfort food for the Holidays. CAKE: 2 3/4 cups sifted flour 2 1/2 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 2 sticks unsalted butter at room temp. 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar 5 eggs rm temp. 1/2 C milk rm temp. 1/4 C Frangelico (FRANGELICO HAZELNUT LIQUEUR - Wine Chateau) 1 1/4 C grated semi-sweet chocolate (I added a pinch of clear gelatin to make the truffle a little firm. The first time doing this recipe the truffle was extremely runny and made the cake soggy, possibly I did something wrong, like get some water in the chocolate :( or over cooked the mix IDK.
TRUFFLE FILLING: 1 pound coarsely chopped semi-sweet chocolate 1 1/2 C heavy cream at rm temp. 6 tblsp butter at rm temp 1/4 C gran sugar. 1/4 C Frangelico
BUTTERCREAM: 4 sticks of rm temp. butter 3 1/2 C. confectioners' sugar, sifted.
ROLLED FONDANT: (omitted from my cake.) 2 tsp. white CREAM De Cacao 2 tsp. warm water 1 tsp unflavored gelatin 1/2 C light corn syrup 1 tbsps glycerine 2 Tbsp white vegetable shortening 8 C. confectioners' sugar 1/3 C cornstarch.
DECORATIONS from 1984 was a variety of colors of decorating gel and melted bittersweet chocolate for the outlines. I used royal icing of my own which was 3 Cups of Confectioners' sugar, 1-2 tsp of milk, 1-2 tsp of corn syrup, 1 tsp of Watkins vanilla extract. divided to make a variety of colors.
PREHEAT OVEN TO 375 F starting with the cake mixture: line a 8 1/2 inch by 3 inch round pan with parchment paper . Sift together flour, salt, and baking powder set aside. In mixer, cream together butter and sugar. Add egg, one at a time to mix well in another bowl mix the milk and Frangelico with a wooden spoon. Then to the butter mix, add 1/3 of the flour mixture and the milk mixture, mixing just enough to blend but not beating the mix. continue until all the flour mixture and milk mixture are mixed in. Stir in the grated chocolate. Pour into the pan, REDUCE oven temp. to 325 F bake 50-55 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool 30 minutes in the pan, then remove from pan and cool for 2 hours, cover in suran wrap and refrigerate over night. TRUFFLE; In double boiler melt chocolate over hot, not boiling water. in a saucepan combine cream, butter, granulated over low medium heat. Bring to a light boil stirring lightly just to disolve the ingredients. Remove from heat and gently stir in the chocolate, it will take a while to mix in, gently. when mixed add the Frangelico. (THEN I ADDED THE PINCH OF GELATIN) let cool and thicken, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours. Too long and you will have trouble spreading the truffle. BUTTERCREAM: cream together Butter and sugar. You can trim cake if you want. I proceeded to leave as is. Cut cake in half. fill with Truffle and use remaining truffle as the crumb coat. refrigerate cake. After cake is chilled apply buttercream and chill again. (IF using Fondant, you would put over the cake after buttercream is chilled), then proceed with decorations. ENJOY! MUSIC TO VIDEO: Back to 1987 Musician: EnjoyMusic site:

This was quite the experience. The one big lesson I learned is to exercise the gentlest of care when you are folding the egg whites into the batter for you see, it is the egg whites that give the cake its lift, sponge, and lightness. Better that than a Swiss brick. I looked at many recipes in books and on the Internet and tweaked and futzed (two of my favorite technical baking terms).
What you will need: Equipment: 2 9in round cake pans Parchment Baking Spray Rubber spatula/scraper Food Processor or Nut Grinder Stand Mixer Vegetable Grater (large hole) Offset Spatula Cake Stand Turntable Small Baking Sheet Metal Serving Spoon
For the Cake: ½ cup of hazelnuts 1 ¼ cup of cake flour 1 cup of sugar 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder ½ teaspoon of salt ½ cup canola or vegetable oil (I prefer canola- lighter texture) ¼ water 3 larger egg yolks 5 large egg whites 3 teaspoons of vanilla extract ¼ teaspoon cream of tarter
For the Cream Frosting: 1½ cups of unsalted butter (3 US sticks) softened ¼ teaspoon salt 1½ cups confectioner’s sugar 1 13-Ounce jar of Kraft Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Crème 2 tablespoons of Hazelnut liqueur (Frangelico) 6-8 Ounces of bittersweet baking chocolate
THE CAKE Step 1. Preheat over to 350°
Step 2. • Cut 2 pieces of parchment to fit the bottom of each pan. • Then grease the parchment and the sides of each pan with baking spray.
Step 3. • Place your ½ cup of hazelnuts on a baking sheet lined with foil and bake for 12 minutes at 350°. • Remove them and let them cool for about 10 minutes. • Once cooled place them in a kitchen towel, fold the towel over, and then roll the nuts in the towel to remove the skins. • Then place in a food processor with blade and grind until fine.
Step 4. In your first mixing bowl whisk together • 1 ¼ cup of cake flour • 1 cup of sugar • 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder • ½ teaspoon of salt and then after those ingredients are combined • ½ cup of ground hazelnuts
Step 5. In your second mixing bowl hand mix : • ½ cup canola or vegetable oil (I prefer canola- lighter texture) • ¼ water • 3 larger egg yolks • 3 teaspoons of vanilla extract
Step 6. • Pour the liquid contents of bowl 2 into bowl one and stir until combined in a batter.
Step 7. In your stand mixer using the whisk attachment whip: • 5 large egg whites • ¼ teaspoon of cream of tarter • Whip until it forms stiff peaks
Step 8. • Spoon 1/3 third of the egg whites into the batter then using whisk lightly mix.
Step 9. • DANGER! Now you are going to carefully and lightly fold the remaining egg whites into the batter by hand using a spatula. • Be gentle and do not over mix. If you over mix the cake will be dense- and you’ll feel dense for making the over mixing mistake!
Step 10. • Divide the batter evenly between the two parchment-lined and greased cake pans.
Step 11. • Bake at 350° in the center rack of the oven for 13 minutes and then rotate the pans and bake for 8-10 mins or until the cake springs back to the touch. • Remove from the oven and let cool in the pans on the rack for at least 15 minutes. • After that run an offset spatula around the edges and turn out on to the cooling racks and peel off the parchment. Let cakes cool completely!
Step 12. • Line the small baking sheet with a piece of parchment. Put the lined baking sheet, the metal serving spoon the 6-8 Ounces of bittersweet baking chocolate, and the grater into the freezer.
THE FROSTING Step 1. • Prepare the stand mixer with the whisk attachment and whip the following on medium until it is smooth • 1½ cups of unsalted butter (3 US sticks) softened • ¼ teaspoon salt
Step 2. • Reduce speed to slow and add • 1½ cups confectioners sugar a little bit at a time once combined turn up the speed to medium and whip for 3 minutes until smooth. • Stop every once and a while and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
Step 3. • Turn the speed down to low and add • 13 ounces of marshmallow cream. (this can get super sticky and messy but it will be worth it!) • Turn up the speed to medium and whip until fluffy (5-6 minutes)
Step 4. • The speed down to low and add • 2 tablespoons of Hazelnut liqueur (Frangelico). Turn speed up to high for a quick mix in.
Step 5. Ice the cake. • Put the first layer on a cake stand and put the cake stand on the turntable (I use a simple Lazy Susan). • Spin the cake and spread a medium layer of frosting in the top of the cake with the offset spatula all the way to the edge. • Carefully place the top layer and press down LIGHTLY. Spin the cake and ice the top and the sides.
Step 6. Time to grate the chocolate. • Take everything out of the freezer and work quickly. • Place the greater on top of the lined baking sheet and grate the chocolate. • Once grated, use the cold metal serving spoon to sprinkle across the top and onto the sides. Your hands may melt the grated chocolate to press it into the sides of the cake lightly.
