Usa Red White And Blue Cake Recipes

THE BEST RED WHITE AND BLUE CAKE TO IMPRESS!

Steps:

• Mix the cake mix according to directions.
• Separate the batter equally into 3 bowls.
• Leave one bowl white. Add the red gel food coloring to one bowl until it is the vibrant red you want.
• Add the blue gel food coloring to the 3rd bowl until it is the vibrant blue you want.
• Spray a bundt pan with non stick spray.
• Spread the red batter in the bottom of the pan.
• Spread the white over it and then finish with the blue on top.
• Bake according to directions on the box.
• Once cooked, allow it to cool and then flip the cake onto a serving platter.
• Place the melting candy into 3 seperate microwave bowls. Microwave in 30 second intervals until it is melted and smooth.
• Smooth the white melting candy over the cake to cover (doesn't have to be perfect)
• Add sprinkles if you want.
• Spoon the red and the blue melting candy into piping bags. Cut the tip of the bags and drizzle the two colors over the cake giving the firecracker effect.
• Top with more sprinkles.
• Allow to cool and the chocolate to harden. Then cut and serve!

RED WHITE AND BLUE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray two 8 inch round cake pans with cooking spray and dust with flour. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of your mixer, beat the butter until creamy. Add the sugar and beat again for about 3-5 minutes on medium high speed until it turns white and fluffy. Add in the egg whites one at a time and mix on medium until each one is fully mixed in.
• Add the extracts, milk, sour cream and vinegar to the butter mixture and mix on medium speed until combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix until jut combined.
• Split the batter evenly into three bowls. Tint one bowl red and one bowl blue. To get the tie-dyed effect you will layer scoops of colored batter into the cake pans. One scoop red followed by one scoop white and one scoop blue, repeated until each pan has about 1/3 of each color of batter.
• Bake for about 35-40 minutes, until the top of the cake springs back when lightly touched and a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
• Allow to cool in the pan on a cooling rack for about 10 minutes before turning upside down on the cooling rack to cool the rest of the way. Cooling the cakes upside down levels out the top so you have nice flay layers that make getting a level cake very easy.
• Once the cake has cooled, you can either wrap the layers in plastic wrap and store in the fridge overnight (chilled layers are typically easier to frost) or you can frost them the same day.
• On a cake stand or plate, place one layer top down. Add generous dollop of frosting on top and smooth evenly. Add the second layer and another dollop of frosting smoothed over the top. Add the top layer upside down and another dollop of frosting on top. Smooth a thin layer of frosting around the outside of the entire cake as a crumb coat. Chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes.
• Frost the outside of the cake. If you have a bench scraper or cake spatula, you can use this to get nice smooth sides and sharp corners at the top of the cake.
• Use a large star tip, such as the Wilton 1M, to pipe a border around the top. Press sprinkles around the bottom of the cake and, if desired, sprinkle around the top border.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, mixing on low speed until incorporated. Once all the sugar has been added, add the salt and the vanilla. Increase the speed to medium and beat for 2-3 minutes.
• If desired, tint a small amount of frosting red and a small amount blue for the border at the top of the cake.

RED, WHITE AND BLUE CAKE ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush an 11-by-17-inch jelly roll pan or rimmed baking sheet with vegetable oil and line with parchment paper; brush the paper with oil and dust with flour, tapping out the excess.
• Make the cake: Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, milk, eggs and vanilla in a large bowl. Add the flour mixture in 2 batches, whisking until incorporated. Transfer half of the batter (about 1 1/2 cups) to a separate bowl. Tint one batch red and the other batch blue with the food coloring.
• Spread the red and blue batters across the width of the prepared pan in alternating stripes, making each stripe about 2 inches wide (don't worry if the stripes aren't perfectly straight). Bake until the top springs back when pressed, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool about 3 minutes in the pan. Dust with confectioners' sugar and spread a clean kitchen towel (not terry cloth) on top. Place a cooling rack on the towel, then invert the cake onto the rack; peel off the parchment. Roll up the cake and towel together, starting at a short end. Let cool completely on the rack, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Make the frosting: Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Add the marshmallow cream and vanilla; beat on medium-high speed until fluffy, 2 to 3 more minutes. Beat in the confectioners' sugar, then beat in the milk (the frosting should be spreadable).
• Gently unroll the cake (don't worry if the ends are still curled up). Spread with half of the frosting all the way to the edges. Reroll the cake (without the towel) and trim the ends. Cover with the remaining frosting.

RED, WHITE AND BLUE MINI LAYER CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Make the cakes: Spray two 9-by-13-inch baking pans with cooking spray; line the bottoms with parchment paper and spray the parchment with cooking spray. Combine the cocoa powder and hot water in a small bowl and whisk until smooth; let cool slightly. Whisk the flour, salt and baking soda in a large bowl. Combine the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla and vinegar in another large bowl, then add the cocoa mixture and whisk until very smooth. Add the flour mixture and whisk until smooth.
• Divide the batter evenly between 2 medium bowls. Whisk 2 teaspoons red food coloring into one bowl until combined. Whisk 2 teaspoons blue food coloring into the other bowl until combined; add more blue food coloring, 1/4 teaspoon at a time, to make the batter royal blue.
• Evenly spread the red batter in one pan and the blue batter in the other. Bake until the cakes spring back when gently pressed and a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Transfer to racks and let the cakes cool 10 minutes in the pans; carefully turn out the cakes onto the racks to cool completely. Remove the parchment.
• Transfer one cake to a cutting board. Starting at the very edge of the cake, use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out 12 rounds. (Do not leave any space between the rounds when cutting.) Repeat to cut out 12 rounds from the other cake.
• Make the frosting: Beat the cream cheese and butter in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until well combined. Add half of the confectioners' sugar and the salt and beat on low speed to combine. Beat in the remaining confectioners' sugar, then increase the speed to medium high and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and beat until combined, about 30 seconds.
• Assemble the cakes: Spread about 2 heaping tablespoons frosting on the top of each cake round. Stack them in tiers of three, alternating red and blue layers (some cakes will have 2 blue layers and some will have 2 red). Top with sprinkles.
