COFFEE WALNUT LAYER CAKE



Coffee Walnut Layer Cake image

This is a subtle cake: the coffee tempers the sweetness, and the buttery sweetness keeps it all mellow. Even if you don't make cakes, this one is a cinch. Don't be alarmed if the two sponge layers look thin when you unmold them. They are meant to be, because the cake gains a lot of height with its frosting. This cake is all about old-fashioned, homespun charm, so don't worry about how messy it looks: however the frosting goes on is fine. If you want to fully cover the sides of the cake, make a double batch of the frosting.

Categories     project, dessert

Time 1h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Butter for pans
1/2 cup (60 grams) walnut pieces
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (245 grams) sugar
2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter at room temperature
1 2/3 cups (230 grams) flour
1 tablespoon (14 grams) baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk at room temperature, more as needed
1 tablespoon (3 grams) instant coffee dissolved in 1 tablespoon boiling water
2 1/2 cups (300 grams) confectioners' sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 sticks (6 ounces) unsalted butter at room temperature
1 tablespoon (3 grams) instant coffee dissolved in 1 tablespoon boiling water
1/4 cup walnut halves, for decoration

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two 8-inch cake pans, and line base of each with parchment paper. In food processor, combine 1/2 cup walnut pieces and sugar. Process to a fine powder. Add butter, flour, baking powder, salt and eggs. Process to a smooth batter.
  • Add 2 tablespoons milk to coffee mixture and pour this down feed tube with motor running. Mixture should be just soft enough to drop from a spoon; if not, add more milk. Divide cake batter between two pans. Bake until risen and springy to touch, about 25 minutes. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes, then remove from pan and place on rack. Remove parchment paper. Cool completely. You may want to level them if they domed in the oven.
  • For frosting: Place confectioners' sugar and salt in food processor and pulse until lump-free. Add butter and process until smooth. Add coffee mixture down feed tube and pulse until well blended.
  • Place one cake upside down on a plate or cake stand. Spread with about half the frosting. Place second cake right side up on frosting, and cover top and sides in a swirly pattern. Place a walnut half in center of cake, and gently press remaining halves into top of cake, around the edge.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

Nonstick cooking spray
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for pans
4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups pure maple syrup
3/4 cup whole milk
1 cup chopped walnut halves, toasted
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup packed dark-brown sugar
2 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Make the cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat two 9-inch round cake pans (2 inches deep) with cooking spray. Line bottoms with parchment paper; lightly coat parchment with cooking spray. Flour parchment and sides (tapping out excess); set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar on high until light and fluffy, 5 minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time, scraping down bowl as needed. With mixer on medium-high, add maple syrup in a slow, steady stream. Add flour mixture in 2 additions, alternating with milk, beating well after each addition and scraping down bowl as needed. Fold in walnuts.
  • Divide batter between pans; firmly tap pans on a flat surface several times to remove air bubbles. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of a cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cakes cool in pans on wire racks, 15 minutes, then invert onto racks; peel off parchment. Invert cakes again and let cool completely on racks. With a serrated knife, trim domed top from each cake to make a flat surface.
  • Make frosting: In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat cream cheese, butter, and brown sugar on high until light and fluffy, 5 minutes. Gradually add confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Assemble cake: Place one layer, top side up, on a cake stand or serving plate. Spread top evenly with 1 1/2 cups frosting. Top with second layer, top side down. Spread remaining frosting over top and around sides of cake.

Tips:

- **Mise en Place:** Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling. - **Room Temperature Ingredients:** When a recipe calls for room temperature ingredients, it's important to take them out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before you start baking. This will help them blend together more easily and create a smoother batter. - **Measuring Ingredients:** Use measuring cups and spoons that are specifically designed for baking. This will help you ensure that you're using the correct amount of ingredients. - **Baking Pan Preparation:** Grease and flour your baking pans before adding the batter. This will help prevent the cake from sticking to the pan. - **Oven Temperature:** Make sure your oven is preheated to the correct temperature before you put the cake in. This will help ensure that the cake bakes evenly. - **Checking for Doneness:** Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done baking. - **Cooling the Cake:** Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or serving. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
