TURTLE CAKE



Turtle Cake image

I found this on the back of a cake mix box. I liked this recipe because it didn't require a German Chocolate Cake base. It's easy to prepare and seems like you spent a lot more prep time than you actually did. ;)

A Canadian Foodie's Turtle Cake Recipe image

Homemade Turtle Cake with Homemade Caramel Filling: A Canadian Foodie Original Recipe transformed from her Cheater Turtle Cake recipe from the late 1980's.

Provided by Valerie Lugonja

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups (360 ml) heavy whipping cream (35-40% butterfat content)
1 cup (200 grams) granulated white sugar
1 cup (210 grams) packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup butter and 1/3 cup butter ((both butter measurements needed))
1 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 ¼ cup of excellent quality chocolate chunks ((I use Callebault))
1 ¼ cup of pecans (, toasted and extra for decorating)
1 ¾ cup flour
¾ cup dark excellent quality cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup or 200 grams granulated white sugar
1 cup or 210 grams golden brown sugar (, packed)
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
1 cup strong double shot espresso (, room temperature)
½ cup cooking oil
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In a heavy medium sized saucepan, stir together cream, sugars, and salt; place saucepan over medium high heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon
  • Once mixture boils, with a heatproof pastry brush that has been dipped in warm water, wash down sides of saucepan to remove sugar crystals that may have formed
  • Clamp a candy thermometer to side of saucepan; boil without stirring over medium high heat until temperature reaches 245 F (118 degrees C)
  • If sugar crystals form on sides of the pan, wash down with heatproof pastry brush dipped in warm water
  • Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and 1/4 cup butter
  • Place back on heat; slowly bring to boil again until temperature reaches 245 F (118 degrees C)
  • Add 1/3 cup of butter; melt into mixture; bring to boil, slowly, again until temperature reaches 245 F (118 degrees C)
  • Stir well to combine, and set aside to cool, but do not let solidify: mixture must be pourable when ready to use
  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF; prepare bottom of spring form pan with parchment paper by cutting circle to size, buttering both sides, and lightly flouring inside
  • Measure first 7 ingredients into large mixing bowl: flour, cocoa, BS, BP, salt, and both sugars
  • Stir well to combine dry ingredients; measure remaining ingredients into bowl: buttermilk, eggs, espresso, canola oil, and vanilla
  • Whisk to combine until completely incorporated and lumps are gone; use spatula to scrape down sides of bowl
  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF; prepare bottom of spring form pan with parchment paper by cutting circle to size, buttering both sides, and lightly flouring inside
  • Weigh the first 7 ingredients into TM bowl: flour, cocoa, BS, BP, salt, and both sugars
  • Mix dry ingredients together for 5 seconds speed 0-7
  • Weigh remaining ingredients into TM bowl: buttermilk, eggs, espresso, canola oil, and vanilla
  • Combine all ingredients for 10-15 seconds at speed 0-7; use spatula to scrape down sides of bowl
  • and repeat for 5-10 seconds only, if lumps remain in mixture, scraping down sides again
  • Pour half of cake batter into spring form mold; bake for 15 minutes
  • Surface tension will be taught enough to receive filling:
  • • Cover surface, starting with edges, with chocolate chips, until completely covered by single thin layer (quarter sized middle circle area can be left uncovered)
  • • Cover chocolate chip layer with toasted pecan layer (quarter sized middle circle area can be left uncovered)
  • • Carefully pour caramel mixture over chocolate and nuts, again starting around the edges, slowly moving toward the centre (the most sensitive surface area); ensure layer is completely covered with caramel
  • Pour remaining cake batter into pan in exact manner: starting around edges, slowly moving toward centre (most sensitive surface area); ensure layer is completely covered with caramel
  • Place in oven to finish baking for 45 to 55 more minutes, until cake springs back to touch
  • Cook on wire rack for 30-40 minutes; while still slightly warm (just to touch, but not so warm caramel filling will spill out once spring form is released) gently loosen sides of spring form pan with butter knife and slide cake out of spring form pan
  • Quickly wrap with plastic wrap and return to spring form pan until completely cool
  • parchment strips between cake side and spring form pan and reseal pan
  • Continue to do this all along the side of the pan until parchment strips are mostly between pan and cake;
  • Remove cake from spring form pan; dust with icing sugar or garnish with whole nuts
  • Serve with a sprig of mint and whipping cream

TURTLE CAKE



Turtle Cake image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 3h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg white
1 tablespoon water
1 pound pecan halves
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1/4 cup black cocoa
1/2 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup canola oil
2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup hot instant coffee
4.2 ounces pasteurized egg whites
1 pound powdered sugar
2 pounds (8 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
8 ounces butterscotch caramel (see Cook's Note)
300 milliliters heavy whipping cream
600 grams dark chocolate, chopped

Steps:

  • For the candied pecans: Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Whisk the sugar, cinnamon and salt together in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg white and water together until frothy. Toss the pecans in the egg white mixture, then add the sugar mixture and toss until the pecans are evenly coated. Spread the coated pecans on a baking sheet. Bake, stirring every 15 minutes, until the pecans are evenly browned, 1 hour.
  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cut two 8-inch parchment circles and use to line the bottoms of two 8-inch cake pans.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the four, white sugar, black and Dutch-process cocoa powders, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the buttermilk, brown sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Whisk in the hot coffee until completely incorporated--the batter will be quite thin.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pans. Bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes, then slide an offset spatula around the edge of the pans and flip out the cakes. Cool on a rack for another 30 minutes.
  • For the buttercream: Combine the egg whites and powdered sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed for 5 minutes. (This helps dissolve all the sugar and prevents that grainy texture you often get with American buttercreams.) You will now have what looks like a really runny royal icing. Make sure your butter is soft. Set the mixer to medium and gradually add the butter, scraping down the bowl occasionally. Add the vanilla extract. Beat for 10 minutes on medium. Swirl in the butterscotch caramel.
  • For the ganache: Heat the cream in a microwave just until boiling, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the cream over the chocolate and allow to sit for 1 minute. Stir until the ganache is silky smooth--it look a bit curdled at first but will eventually come together. Leave the ganache on the counter to cool until it has reached the consistency of peanut butter. At this point it is ready to be used to frost the outside of the cake. (Makes 2 cups.)
  • To assemble the cake: Remove the parchment paper from the bottoms of cakes. Split the cakes in half horizontally with a serrated knife (to make four layers). Place one layer on a serving platter. Spread a generous 3/4 cup buttercream over the layer to within 1/2 inch of the edge. Sprinkle 3 to 4 tablespoons candied pecans over the buttercream. Place a second cake layer over the first and repeat witht the buttercream and pecans. Continue with a third layer. Top the cake with the final layer and gently frost the outside with ganache.

CHOCOLATE TURTLE POKE CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



Chocolate Turtle Poke Cake Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: freshly made chocolate cake, can of dulce de leche, can of chocolate frosting, chopped pecans, mini chocolate chips, caramel syrup

Provided by Matthew Johnson

Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 freshly made chocolate cake, prepared from scratch or using a packaged mix
14 oz can of dulce de leche, warmed
16 oz can of chocolate frosting
½ cup chopped pecans
½ cup mini chocolate chips
caramel syrup, to taste

Steps:

  • Using the back of a wooden spoon, poke at least 3 rows of 4 holes in the cooked cake, making 12 holes total. Pour the dulce de leche over the cake and let settle into the holes for about 10 minutes. Some of the dulce de leche will still stay on top, which is okay. If necessary, it can be reheated or mixed with a little milk to be thinned.
  • Spread the chocolate frosting evenly on top of the cake. Sprinkle the chopped pecans and mini chocolate chips on top of the frosting, then drizzle with the caramel. Chill the cake for at least 3 hours or up to overnight.
  • Enjoy!
