HAZELNUT BUTTER BRICKLE CAKE



Hazelnut Butter Brickle Cake image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 3h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 cup granulated sugar plus 3 tablespoons
1 1/2 cups finely chopped hazelnuts
1 tablespoon cornstarch
6 egg whites
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Caramel Sauce, recipe follows
Hazelnut Toffee Crunch, recipe follows
Whipped Cream Filling, recipe follows
1 cup whipping cream
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup roughly chopped hazelnuts
2 cups whipping cream
1 tablespoon icing sugar
1/2 cup broken pieces of hazelnut toffee crunch (1/8-inch pieces)

Steps:

  • Line 3 large baking sheets with parchment or silicone paper. On each sheet, trace a 9-inch circle. Turn paper over so that you can see the tracings. Preheat oven to 225 degrees.
  • Mix together 1 cup sugar, finely chopped nuts, and sifted cornstarch. Place egg whites in bowl of electric mixer. Using the whip attachment, start whipping at slow speed until whites are foamy, add the cream of tartar and salt, continue whipping at fast speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the 3 tablespoons of sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Add the vanilla extract. Remove bowl from mixer stand, fold in the nut mixture by hand, a small amount at a time. Divide mixture between 3 circles and spread into even layers. Bake for approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour or until meringues are lightly coloured and dry.
  • Place the 3 meringue layers on work surface, turn 1 layer over to the smooth side (for top layer). Spread a very thin layer of caramel sauce on top layer and chill. Lay 2 remaining meringues on work surface and brush with melted milk chocolate. Chill until set.
  • Remove all layers from refrigerator and place the bottom layer on serving plate, spread 1/2 of the toffee cream over the first layer, place next layer on top and spread the remaining 1/2 of the toffee cream over layer. Place top layer gently on top. Fill a piping bag with a 1/2-inch plain tip and pipe 8 rosettes around the outside border of the layer, leaving space between the rosettes. Fill the spaces with broken pieces of toffee. Drizzle caramel lightly over the whipped cream rosettes. Chill 4 hours before serving.
  • In a small saucepan, scald the cream and set aside. Combine the sugar with 1/2 cup water in a large saucepan. Stir to moisten the sugar. Bring to a simmer, swirling the pan gently to dissolve the sugar. Increase heat and continuing simmering without stirring until syrup begins to color. Once the syrup turns a deep amber or caramel color, remove from heat and add the cream in a steady stream, stirring with a wire whisk. Caramel and cream will bubble up and steam, but keep stirring and continue to whisk until caramel is completely dissolved and combined with the cream. Stir in pieces of butter until melted and combined. Stir in vanilla and salt. Set aside to cool.
  • Coat a cookie sheet with vegetable oil and set aside. Preheat oven to 200 degrees F. Place the sugar, water, corn syrup and vanilla in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and stir well to dissolve the sugar. Cook the mixture over high heat until it reaches a boil. Let the mixture boil for 1 minute. Add the butter, stirring to combine. Continue to boil, stirring often. Scrape the bottom of the pan to keep the mixture from burning. The mixture should reach 290 degrees on a candy thermometer and is a deep golden brown. Remove from the heat and stir in the nuts. Turn the mixture out onto the oiled tray and let it cool completely.
  • Whip the cream until soft peaks form, add the icing sugar; continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Set aside 1 cup of cream for decoration. Fold the toffee into the remaining cream.

Number Of Ingredients 19

HAZELNUT MERINGUE LAYERS:
1 cup granulated sugar plus 3 tbsp
1 1/2 cups ground hazelnuts
1 tbsp cornstarch
6 egg whites
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
CARAMEL SAUCE:
1 cup 35% whipping cream
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
5 tbsp Longo's Unsalted Butter, cubed
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/8 tsp salt
WHIPPED CREAM FILLING:
2 cups 35% whipping cream
1 tbsp icing sugar
1/2 cup Skor toffee bits/chips
4 oz milk chocolate, melted
2 Skor bars, broken into large pieces

Steps:

  • LINE large baking sheets with parchment paper, trace 3 8-inch circles on sheets. Turn paper over so that you can see the tracings. Preheat oven to 225°F. MIX together 1 cup of the sugar, hazelnuts and cornstarch. USING the whip attachment of large stand mixer, whip egg whites at slow speed until whites are foamy; add cream of tartar. Continue whipping at fast speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the 3 tbsp of sugar and whip until stiff peaks form. Add vanilla. REMOVE bowl from mixer stand, gradually fold in the nut mixture with a spatula. Divide mixture between 3 circles and spread into even layers. Bake for about 2 hours or until meringues are lightly coloured and dry. Set aside to cool or store airtight at room temperature. CARAMEL SAUCE: Bring cream to almost boiling and set aside. Combine the sugar with 1/2 cup water in large, deep saucepan. Stir to moisten the sugar. Bring to a simmer, swirling the pan gently to dissolve the sugar. Increase heat and simmer without stirring until syrup begins to colour. Once the syrup turns an amber colour or light caramel colour, remove from heat and add the cream in a steady stream, stirring with a wire whisk. *Caramel and cream will bubble up and steam* (be very careful), but keep stirring and continue to whisk until caramel is completely dissolved and combined with the cream. STIR in pieces of butter until melted and combined. Stir in vanilla and salt. Set aside to cool. WHIPPED CREAM FILLING: Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Add icing sugar and whip until stiff peaks form. Set aside 1 cup for decoration. Fold 1/2 cup of the Skor chips into the remaining cream. PLACE the 3 meringue layers on work surface, turn 1 layer over to the smooth side (for top layer). Spread a very thin layer of caramel sauce on top layer and chill. LAY 2 remaining meringues on work surface and brush with melted milk chocolate; chill until set. REMOVE all layers from refrigerator and place the bottom layer on serving plate, spread one half of the Skor cream over the first layer, place next layer on top and spread the remaining half of the Skor cream over second layer. Place top layer caramel side up gently on top. FILL a piping bag with a 1/2-inch plain tip with remaining plain cream and pipe 8 rosettes around the outside border of the layer, leaving space between the rosettes. Pipe one rosette in centre of cake. Fill the spaces with Skor bar pieces. DRIZZLE caramel lightly over the whipped cream rosettes. Chill 4 hours before serving. TIP: Any remaining caramel sauce can be refrigerated for up to 3 weeks to be used for other desserts.

Tips for Making Butter Brickle:

  • Use high-quality butter. This will give your butter brickle a rich, creamy flavor.
  • Cook the sugar syrup to the right temperature. If the syrup is not cooked to the right temperature, it will not harden properly.
  • Add the butter and vanilla extract at the right time. If you add them too early, they will burn.
  • Pour the mixture onto a greased baking sheet. This will help the butter brickle to spread out evenly.
  • Let the butter brickle cool completely before breaking it into pieces. If you break it into pieces too soon, it will be too soft and sticky.
