Mimosa Cake Womans Day Recipes

MIMOSA CAKE WITH LEMON FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Sift flour and 1/2 cup sugar together onto a piece of waxed paper.
• Combine all 10 egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt in a large glass, metal, or ceramic bowl. Beat at high speed until foamy. Gradually add remaining sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until soft peaks form. Fold flour mixture into the meringue, 1/3 at a time, until completely blended.
• Beat 4 egg yolks in a small bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until thick and lemon colored. Beat in lemon zest and vanilla. Fold 1/2 of the meringue batter into the egg yolk mixture until no streaks of white remain.
• Alternating between the two batters and without stirring or mixing, spoon tablespoonfuls into an ungreased 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top springs back when lightly pressed with a fingertip, about 35 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and invert onto a quart-sized soft drink bottle; cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Loosen cake around the edge and tube with a spatula. Cover pan with a serving plate; turn upside down, shake gently, and remove cake from the pan. Frost with lemon frosting.

MIMOSA CAKE (WOMAN'S DAY)

Steps:

• Line a semi-sepherical bowl with plastic film. Then line it with a thick layer of the sponge and sprinkle it with the liqueur of your choice. Pop it in the fridge for 2 hours so it sets firm.
• Now take it out and fill a quarter of the interior with the whipped cream then half with lemon curd and the remaining quarter with whipped cream (not all as some is needed for later). Return it once more to the frdge so it can set frimly. When done take it out, flip it over and using the film you can remove it from the bowl. Use the rest of the whipped cream to cover the cake. You could even make a mixture of 3/4 cream and 1/4 of lemon curd to cover it if you preferred. To finish it all you need do is decorate it with the small sponge cubes you made at the beginning.
• For the lemon curd:Beat the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl. Strain into a heatproof bowl. Add lemon rind, juice and butter. Place the bowl over a pan of simmering water - don't let the bowl sit in the water. Stir over 20 minutes until the mixture thikens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Cool before using

MIMOSA CAKE

Steps:

• Make the Sponge Cake.
• Whisk the eggs and sugar in a mixer until stiff. Sieve together the flour and potato starch. Then, using a spatula, gently fold it into egg and sugar mixture. Pour it into a 9'' spring form cake tin, buttered and floured. Bake at 325° F for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Once it is cooled completely, slice the cake into four layers.
• To Make the Custard.
• Bring the milk with the vanilla and lemon zest to a boil. Remove from heat and strain. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and yolks together with the sugar. Add the flour, and mix well. Once the mixture is smooth, temper it with a bit of warm milk, stirring while adding. Continue to pour the remaining milk, mixing it well with the flour and egg mixture. Return the mixture to the heat and cook over a low heat for 5 - 10 minutes stirring continuously, allowing it to boil for 2 - 3 minutes. Remove the custard from the heat and allow it to cool.
• To Make the Whipped Cream.
• Whisk heavy cream and confectioners' sugar until stiff peaks form. Once the confectioner's custard is cold, fold it in the whipped cream.
• To Make the Syrup.
• Bring water and sugar to a boil, and cook for 3-4 minutes. Turn off the heat and mix in the rum and the orange juice.
• Assembling the Cake.
• Line a medium size glass mixing bowl with plastic wrap. Line with one of the top layers of the sponge cake, brush with the rum/orange juice syrup. Pour in 1/3 of custard/whipped cream mixture and spread evenly. Top with another sponge layer and brush with the rum/orange sauce. Pour another 1/3 of the custard/cream on the sponge layer and spread evenly. Top with the bottom cut of the sponge cake to form a tight lid and moisten with rum /orange juice syrup. Set in the freezer and let set for 2-3 hours.
• In the meantime cut the remaining sponge cake in small cubes. Invert the cake on a serving plate and gently remove the plastic wrap. Spread the remaining custard cream mixture evenly all over the cake to seal and make a smooth dome. Pressure the cake cubes onto the custard dome to cover completely. Chill the cake in the refrigerator until ready to use. Dust abundantly with powdered sugar and serve.
