Indulge in the delectable Bonnie Butter Cake and Mama's Fudge Icing, a classic combination that has been passed down generations. This rich and moist butter cake is perfectly complemented by the velvety smooth fudge icing, creating a taste sensation that will leave you craving for more.

The cake batter is made with simple ingredients like butter, sugar, eggs, and flour, whipped until light and fluffy. The secret to its moistness lies in the addition of buttermilk, which reacts with the baking soda to create a tender and flavorful crumb. The cake is then baked until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

While the cake is cooling, prepare the decadent fudge icing. This icing is made with cocoa powder, butter, milk, and sugar, cooked until it reaches the perfect consistency. The result is a rich and creamy icing that pairs perfectly with the moist butter cake.

To assemble the cake, simply spread a generous layer of fudge icing on top of the cooled cake. You can also decorate it with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or fresh berries for an extra touch of sweetness and color.

This Bonnie Butter Cake with Mama's Fudge Icing is perfect for any occasion, whether it's a birthday celebration, a special dinner, or simply a weekend treat. With its classic flavors and easy-to-follow instructions, this recipe is sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 squares unsweetened chocolate
1/2 c milk
2 c sugar
1 stick butter

Steps:

  • 1. Melt butter and chocolate; stir in sugar and milk. Heat till sugar melts and let it boil to soft ball 5-6 minutes. Add 1/2 t. vanilla. Stir till it's cool enough to put on cake. (It hardens fast!)
  • 2. NOTE: I put the icing on the first and second layers when it is still a little runny. I pour it over the top when it starts to stay pretty well, so the top looks pretty. I put waxed paper under the edges of the cake, so when the icing drips down, I can pull it back up the sides. After you finish icing the sides of the cake, you can remove the waxed paper at the bottom, so the plate will be clean.

Bonnie Butter Cake with French Silk Frosting image

One of my husband's favorite cakes is a butter cake with chocolate frosting. In fact, it's pretty much a favorite with just about everyone. I have to say, though, a yellow cake mix just doesn't have the same "pure" flavor that a homemade one does. So, when I make this, I always make it from scratch. This is one of the best...

Time 55m

Yield 1 9 x 13 inch pan, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 3/4 cups sugar
2/3 cup butter, softened (or margarine, if you have to!)
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs
3 cups cake flour (or you can use 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour)
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups milk
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup shortening
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate
2/3 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom and sides of rectangular pan, 13 x 9 x 2 inches, or 2 round pans, 9 x 1 1/2 inches; lightly flour.
  • Beat sugar, butter/margarine, vanilla and eggs in large bowl with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high speed 5 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat in flour, baking powder and salt alternatively with milk on low speed. Pour into pan(s).
  • Bake for 45 to 50 minutes if using the rectangular pan, 30 to 35 minutes if using the round pans, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool rectangular pan on wire rack. Cool round pans 10 minutes; remove to wire rack. Cool completely.
  • TO MAKE THE FROSTING: Mix all ingredients except vanilla in 2 1/2 quart saucepan. Heat to rapid boil, stirring occasionally. Boil 1 minute without stirring. Place saucepan in bowl of ice and water. Beat until frosting is smooth and of spreading consistency. Stir in vanilla.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any mishaps.
  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help your ingredients mix together more easily and evenly. If you're using butter, let it sit out at room temperature for about 30 minutes before using.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the batter, making your cake light and airy.
  • Gradually add the eggs to the batter: Add them one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter: Overmixing can make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the cake cooks evenly.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Bonnie Butter Cake with Mama's Fudge Icing is a delicious and classic cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and fluffy, with a rich and creamy fudge icing. If you're looking for a special cake to make for your next party or gathering, this is the one for you!
