Provided by Whitney

Number Of Ingredients 23

4 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground cardamom
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 1/4 Cups (296ml) whole milk
1 chai tea bag
2 3/4 Cups (290g) cake flour, sifted before measuring
2 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
4 tsp chai spice mix (recipe above)
1 1/4 tsp salt
1 Cup (226g) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 3/4 Cups (358g) granulated white sugar
3 eggs, room temperature
1/2 Cup (112g) sour cream, room temperature
1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
2 Cups (452g) unsalted butter, room temperature
7 Cups (840g) powdered sugar
1 Tbsp chai spice mix (recipe above)
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 Tbsp whole milk, room temperature
1/4 tsp salt

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, allspice, and cloves and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare three 6-inch or two 9-inch cake pans by spraying the sides with a cooking spray (Baker's Joy is my favorite) and fitting a wax or parchment paper circle to the bottom of the pan. Alternatively, you can grease and lightly flour the pans.
  • Place the chai tea bag into a mason jar. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, warm the whole milk, stirring constantly, until it begins to boil. Pour the boiling milk over the chai tea bag in the mason jar and let steep for 20 minutes before removing the tea bag. Allow the mixture to cool completely to room temperature before moving on.
  • Sift the cake flour and then measure by spooning and leveling it in your measuring cup. Add the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, 4 teaspoons of the chai spice mix, and salt into a bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer (a handheld mixer works fine too!), cream the butter for on high for two minutes until it's light and fluffy. Add in sugar and continue to mix on medium-high for another two minutes, scraping down the bowl and paddle as needed. Add the eggs one at a time, then add vanilla and sour cream and mix for one minute on high, scraping down the bowl and paddle once more.
  • With the mixer on low speed, add in the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Add the (room temperature!) chai milk mixture slowly and mix until just incorporated. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl and give it a few stirs to make sure there are no lumps (without over-mixing). The batter will be slightly thick, but pourable.
  • Pour batter evenly into prepared cake pans (no more than 2/3 of the way full) and bake for 30-35 minutes. They're done when they spring back to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Let the cakes cool in the pan for five minutes before turning them out onto a wire rack for an additional few hours of cooling. Make sure they're entirely room temperature before applying any frosting.
  • With a hand mixer or paddle attachment on your stand mixer, cream the butter on medium-high until it's creamy and light (almost white) in color. About 7 minutes.
  • Whisk 1 Tbsp of the Chai Spice Mix into the measured powdered sugar. With the mixer on low, add the powdered sugar mixture a few cups at a time, scraping down after each addition and making sure each addition is fully incorporated before adding the next one.
  • Add vanilla, milk, and salt and mix on medium-low for another two minutes until fully incorporated.
  • Once the Vanilla Chai Cakes have cooled completely, fill and frost the layers with Vanilla Chai Buttercream. To create the design pictured, add crushed Speculoos Cookies to the sides of the cake by placing them into the palm of your hand and gently pressing them onto the buttercream finish. Then, fit one piping bag with Wilton Tip 4B and another piping bag with Wilton Tip 1M before filling each with Vanilla Chai Buttercream. Pipe rosettes and stars onto the top of the cake in a crescent moon shape, add some cinnamon sticks, and sprinkle more crushed Speculoos Cookies on top.

Provided by Olivia

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h40m

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 1/2 cup milk
1 Tbsp Chai tea leaves (2 tea bags)
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsps baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground cardamom
1/2 tsp ground allspice
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground ginger
3/4 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cups light brown sugar (packed)
3 large eggs ( room temperature)
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup Chai tea milk
1 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
1 cup cream cheese (8oz, full fat, chilled, cubed)
4 cups powdered sugar (sifted)
2 tsp vanilla
cornstarch or meringue powder (optional)
cape gooseberries
whole allspice
whole star anise
whole cloves
whole green cardamom pods

Steps:

  • Bring milk and tea to a boil in a small pot over med-high heat. Turn heat off and steep for 10mins. Strain and measure out 1 cup. Top up with milk if needed.
  • Preheat oven to 350F. Grease and flour three 6" cake rounds and line with parchment.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, spices, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  • Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream butter and sugars on med-high until pale and fluffy (approx 3mins).
  • Reduce speed and add eggs one at a time fully incorporating after each addition. Add vanilla.
  • Alternate adding flour mixture and Chai milk, beginning and ending with flour (3 additions of flour and 2 of milk). Fully incorporating after each addition.
  • Bake for 35-40mins or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
  • Place cakes on wire rack to cool for 10mins then turn out onto wire rack. Allow to cool completely.
  • Using a stand mixer or hand mixer beat butter until pale and creamy.
  • Reduce speed to low. Add powdered sugar 1 cup at a time and mix on low until well blended. Increase speed to medium and beat for 3 minutes. Add vanilla and continue to beat on medium for 1 minute.
  • Slowly add chilled cream cheese one cube at a time (about 1 tablespoon at a time). Beat well until blended and ensure no lumps of cream cheese remain.
  • If needed, add cornstarch or meringue powder 1 tablespoon at a time to stiffen the frosting (I didn't but this is an option).
  • Run mixer on low for a couple of minutes to remove any air bubbles.
  • Place one layer of cake on a cake stand or serving plate. Top with 2/3 cup of frosting and spread evenly. Repeat with remaining layers and apply a thin coat of frosting all over the cake. Chill for 20mins.
  • Use the remaining frosting to frost the cake and do a rustic swirl on the sides and top with a large offset spatula if desired.
  • Decorate top with whole spices and gooseberries if desired.
