MEXICAN CHOCOLATE ORANGE CAPPUCCINO CAKE



Mexican Chocolate Orange Cappuccino Cake image

I clipped this out of a 1998 issue of Off Duty military magazine. It is a rich, decadent cake that looks fancy, but starts with doctored up cake mix and a can of purchased frosting. This is not purporting to be an authentic Mexican recipe, but has hints of Mexican flavorings. Prep time does not include cooling time and chilling time. I estimated about 20 minutes of preparing the batter and frosting and 20 minutes to assemble the cake once cooled.

CAPPUCCINO CHOCOLATE CAKE



Cappuccino Chocolate Cake image

Super easy and very tasty. I like to make this recipe using the mini angel food pans (like a muffin pan but with 6 small angel food forms per pan). They make very nice individual cakes. If you should do it this way you will, of course, have to shorten the baking time. Just keep an eye on them and they will be fine. Mine bake in about 35 mins.

Categories     Desserts     Nut Dessert Recipes     Pistachio Dessert Recipes

Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 teaspoon shortening, or as needed
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour, or as needed
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup cold water
⅓ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons orange juice
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
½ cup unsalted butter
⅔ cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 tablespoons instant pistachio pudding mix
2 tablespoons cold water
1 ounce dark chocolate, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups with shortening using a paper towel and dust with about 1 teaspoon flour or line with paper liners.
  • Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, white sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat 1 cup cold water, olive oil, orange juice, and vanilla extract into flour mixture on medium-low speed until batter is just combined, about 2 minutes. Fold orange zest into batter. Pour batter into prepared muffin cups, 2/3-full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into a cupcake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer cupcakes to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Beat butter in a bowl using an electric mixer in medium speed until fluffy, about 1 minute. Slowly pour confectioners' sugar into creamed butter and beat until incorporated, about 2 minutes. Beat pudding mix into butter mixture until just combined. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency of icing is reached. Ice the cooled cupcakes; garnish with grated chocolate.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cake will taste. Use real Mexican chocolate, fresh oranges, and high-quality coffee.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Enjoy the cake within 3 days: The cake is best when fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

This Mexican chocolate orange cappuccino cake is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of Mexican chocolate, orange, and coffee flavors is simply irresistible. The cake is moist and fluffy, with a rich and decadent frosting. If you are looking for a special cake to impress your friends and family, this is the one for you.
