Whipped Cream Valentine Cake Recipes

MOLTEN LAVA CAKE WITH WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Paint the insides of 6 ramekins with the melted butter, then coat with granulated sugar.
• Put the remaining stick of butter and the chocolate chips in a large mixing bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan filled with about 1 inch of boiling water (make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water). Gently stir the butter and chocolate together until melted and smooth. Turn off the heat.
• Combine the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, eggs and yolks in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip until doubled in size and very thick and pale. Gently whisk in the chocolate-butter mixture. Gently stir in the flour. Pour the batter into the prepared ramekins. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 14 to 15 minutes. Let rest for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Whip the cream in a bowl with an electric mixer until it holds soft peaks.
• Remove the cakes from the ramekins and place them on individual serving plates. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm with whipped cream.

WHIPPED CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack set in lower third of the oven. Spray a 10-cup fluted metal tube or Bundt pan with cooking spray with flour; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Sift flour mixture and set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip cream on low, gradually increasing speed to medium-high as cream thickens, until stiff peaks form.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and vanilla. With the mixer on medium-high, gradually add egg mixture; beat until thickened (like mayonnaise) and well combined. Gradually add sugar, about 30 seconds.
• Remove the whisk attachment from the mixer. Using the whisk attachment, gently fold half the flour mixture into the cream mixture until flour is dissolved and well combined. Repeat process with remaining flour mixture. Transfer batter to prepared cake pan; run a small metal spatula or dull knife through batter to prevent large air bubbles from forming, avoiding bottom of the pan. Smooth surface evenly with a small metal spatula.
• Transfer pan to oven and bake until a cake tester inserted into cake comes out clean and springs back when lightly pressed with your finger, 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer cake pan to a wire rack and let cool 10 minutes; cake will begin to shrink from sides of pan.
• Spray a wire rack with nonstick cooking spray. Using a metal spatula, loosen top edges of cake and invert onto prepared wire rack. Let cool completely. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with whipped cream, if desired.
