Time 1h29m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 clementines
½ cup water, or as needed
1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix (such as Betty Crocker®)
3 eggs
½ cup vegetable oil
¼ teaspoon orange extract, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1 drop red food coloring
2 (16 ounce) containers chocolate fudge frosting
1 clementine, peeled and finely chopped
1 clementine, peeled and segmented, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
  • Finely grate zest from 2 clementines and set aside. Juice all 4 clementines into a measuring cup; add enough water to reach 1 cup.
  • Pour clementine juice into a large bowl. Add zest, cake mix, eggs, oil, orange extract, vanilla extract, salt, and red food coloring. Blend with an electric mixer until batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Divide batter into greased cake pans and smooth the top.
  • Bake cakes in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, 24 to 29 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack, about 30 minutes more.
  • Transfer cakes to a flat surface. Carefully trim the tops of the cakes with a sharp knife to level them; cut each layer in half horizontally. Transfer one cake layer to a serving plate and spread with 1/2 cup of the frosting; top with another cake layer and 1/2 cup of frosting. Scatter chopped clementine over the frosting. Stack and frost third and fourth cake layers. Arrange clementine wedges around the perimeter of the top layer.

CLEMENTINE AND CHOCOLATE CHIP CAKE



Clementine and Chocolate Chip Cake image

I made the proto-type for this clementine cake by digging through the kitchen to see what we had. My seven-year-old son adored it. This is the second iteration and I found it's a winner. The whole fruit and whole flour provide a decent amount of nutrition for a dessert. The texture came out surprising smooth. Enjoy.

CLEMENTINE CAKE

Categories     dessert

Time 2h50m

Yield 1 (8-inch) cake

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 to 5 clementines (about 1 pound total weight)
6 eggs
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
2 1/3 cups ground almonds
1 heaping teaspoon baking powder

Steps:

  • Put the clementines in a pot with cold water to cover, bring to the boil, and cook for 2 hours. Drain and, when cool, cut each clementine in half and remove the seeds. Then finely chop the skins, pith, and fruit in the processor (or by hand, of course).
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Butter and line an 8-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
  • Beat the eggs. Add the sugar, almonds, and baking powder. Mix well, adding the chopped clementines. I don't like using the processor for this, and frankly, you can't balk at a little light stirring.
  • Pour the cake mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour, when a skewer will come out clean; you'll probably have to cover the cake with foil after about 40 minutes to stop the top from burning. Remove from the oven and leave to cool, in the pan on a rack. When the cake is cold, you can take it out of the pan. I think this is better a day after it's made, but I don't complain about eating it anytime.
  • I've also made this with an equal weight of oranges and lemons, in which case I increase the sugar to 1 1/4 cups and slightly Anglicize it, too, by adding a glaze made of confectioners' sugar mixed to a paste with lemon juice and a little water.

CLEMENTINE'S OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Clementine's Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies image

My new fave! Printed on the back of the Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chip bag. They are different than the other recipes posted. The baking aroma is enough to start you drooling. The cookie recipe made exactly as many as it said it would. Tended to fall apart easily as I took them off the cookie sheet so be cautious. Simply scrumptious. They do harden substantially as they "set up". I would highly encourage the lower/lowest baking time. Up to you, forewarned though...

Time 25m

Yield 5 dozen, 60 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup unsifted flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
3 cups oats, uncooked
1 (12 ounce) bag Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup walnuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • In a large bowl, beat butter with sugar and brown sugar at medium speed until creamy and lightened in color (about four minutes).
  • Add vanilla and egg, mix on low speed until incorporated.
  • Stir flour with baking soda, salt and spices; add to cream mixture, mixing well.
  • Stir in oats.
  • Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts.
  • Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased cookie sheets.
  • Bake 8-9 minutes for a chewy cookie.
  • Bake 10-11 minutes for a crisp cookie.
  • Cool one minute on a cookie sheet; remove to wire cooling racks.
  • Store in tightly covered container.

Tips:

  • Prepare the cake batter properly: Follow the recipe's instructions carefully, making sure not to overmix the batter, as this can lead to a tough cake.
  • Use plenty of clementines: Clementines are the star of this cake, so use plenty of them to ensure a burst of citrus flavor. The recipe calls for one cup of fresh clementine juice, which is about 4-5 clementines.
  • Don't overbake the cake: Keep a close eye on the cake in the oven, as overbaking can dry it out. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: It's important to let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will prevent the frosting from melting or becoming too runny.
  • Enjoy the cake fresh: Clementine and chocolate chip cake is best enjoyed fresh, within a couple of days of baking. Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature.

Conclusion:

Clementine and chocolate chip cake is a delicious and moist cake that's perfect for any occasion. The bright citrus flavor of the clementines pairs perfectly with the rich chocolate chips. This cake is easy to make and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
