Cheeseburger Cake image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h30m

Yield 14-16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Cooking spray
2 18.25-ounce boxes chocolate cake mix
8 large eggs
2 cups buttermilk
1 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup green decorating sugar or granulated sugar
8 spearmint leaf gummy candies
3 ounces orange rolled fondant (available at craft stores)
Cornstarch, for dusting
1 16-ounce tub vanilla frosting
1 16-ounce tub chocolate frosting
3/4 teaspoon yellow food coloring
5 drops red food coloring
2 tablespoons crispy rice cereal

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 2 1/2-quart ovenproof bowl and two 8-inch-round cake pans with cooking spray. Beat the cake mix, eggs, buttermilk and vegetable oil in a large bowl with a mixer.
  • Divide the batter among the bowl and pans; bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 25 minutes for the pans and about 45 minutes for the bowl. Cool in the pans 15 minutes, then unmold onto racks.
  • Make the lettuce: Sprinkle some green or white sugar on a cutting board. Roll out the spearmint candies to 1/8 inch thick with a rolling pin, sprinkling with more sugar to keep the candies from sticking.
  • Cut each flattened gummy piece into 3 strips. Fold each strip accordion-style to make ruffles; pinch the ends together.
  • Make the cheese: Roll out the orange fondant on a cornstarch-dusted surface to about 1/8 inch thick. Trim the fondant into a 7-inch square; cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
  • Trim the top of 1 round cake and the flat side of the bowl cake to make them level; crumble the trimmings. Mix the vanilla frosting, 4 tablespoons chocolate frosting and the yellow and red food coloring in a bowl to make a light brown frosting.
  • Make the bottom bun: Put the trimmed round cake on a serving plate or cake board. Frost with some of the light brown frosting. Arrange the gummy-candy ruffles around the edge of the cake.
  • Make the patty: Spread the remaining chocolate frosting over the top and sides of the untrimmed round cake. Press the crumbled cake trimmings into the frosting.
  • Assemble the burger: Put the chocolate patty on the bottom bun, then drape the orange fondant on top. Frost the bowl-shaped cake with the remaining light brown frosting; place on the patty. Press the rice cereal into the frosting.

THE BEST BACON CHEESEBURGER



The Best Bacon Cheeseburger image

While we love a grilled burger, this one is our go-to for all seasons. Instead of making a typical patty, we smash the meat in a super-hot cast-iron pan to get crispy, ruffled edges. Once you smash your burgers this way, you'll never go back! We top them with all the fixings, including our perfectly balanced special sauce. It's what we consider an iconic burger.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
2 tablespoons pickle relish
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
8 slices thick-cut bacon
4 sesame seed hamburger buns, split
2 pounds ground beef (80-percent lean)
Kosher salt
4 thin slices sharp white Cheddar
4 thin slices red onion
8 thin slices tomato
1/4 head iceberg lettuce, shredded

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish and vinegar in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Working in batches if necessary, add the bacon to a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook, flipping halfway through, until crisp and golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a nonstick baking sheet. Discard the bacon fat (or save for another use) and wipe the skillet clean but do not wash. Heat over medium-high heat until very hot, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the buns split-side up to the baking sheet with the bacon and bake until the buns are toasted, about 5 minutes.
  • Loosely form the beef into 4 balls. Add one ball of beef to the skillet and press firmly to flatten with a large flat metal spatula for 10 seconds, then gently remove the spatula. Sprinkle the patty generously with salt; repeat with the remaining beef balls, cooking in batches if necessary. Let cook, undisturbed, until well browned on the bottoms, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the patties, sprinkle with more salt and top each with a slice of Cheddar. Continue cooking until the cheese is melted around the edges and the bottoms are browned, about 2 more minutes.
  • Spread the mayonnaise mixture on the bun tops. Serve the patties on the bottom buns topped with the bacon, onion, tomato and lettuce.

Tips:

  • For a crispy bacon flavor, cook the bacon until it's just shy of being fully cooked, then let it cool before chopping.
  • Use a good quality ground beef for the burger layer. An 80/20 blend works well.
  • Season the ground beef generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the meat.
  • Don't overcook the burger layer. It should be cooked through, but still slightly pink in the center.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the tomatoes and onions. This will help to prevent them from tearing.
  • Use a good quality cheese for the cheese layer. A sharp cheddar or pepper jack cheese works well.
  • Serve the bacon cheeseburger cake immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

The bacon cheeseburger cake is a fun and delicious way to enjoy all of your favorite burger flavors in a new and exciting way.
