DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Devil's Food Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting image

What's black and white and delicious all over? This double-decker chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 3h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pans
2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 cup milk
2 cups plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 large eggs, at room temperature
Two 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, cut into cubes, at room temperature
2 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 cup cold heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl; set aside. Bring the milk and 1 1/4 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Beat the butter in a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, increase the speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally. Add the cocoa powder and vanilla and beat at medium speed for 1 minute. Reduce the speed to medium-low and add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating for 1 minute after each addition.
  • Reduce the mixer to low and beat in the flour mixture in four additions. Carefully pour the hot milk mixture into the batter. Stir using a rubber spatula until smooth. Evenly divide the batter between the prepared pans and lightly tap the pans on the counter.
  • Bake until the cakes begin to pull away from sides of the pans and the centers spring back when pressed gently, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool the cakes in the pans on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Invert onto the rack and cool completely. Peel the parchment from the bottoms.
  • Beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer on medium-high speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until smooth, about 2 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla and salt. Gradually increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat until the frosting is fluffy and smooth, about 3 minutes. With the mixer running on medium-high speed, slowly pour in the heavy cream until it is fully incorporated. Continue beating until the frosting is slightly lighter in color and creamy, about 1 minute more.
  • Put one cake round on a serving plate; spread about one-third of the frosting over the top, going to the edge of the cake. Place the second cake round on top. Frost the top and sides with the remaining frosting.

REAL RED DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE



Real Red Devil's Food Cake image

This cake is PERFECT for birthdays. It makes quite a presentation for adults or kids. White 7 minute frosting is the real kicker, but I have used just a regular white buttercream and it still looks great.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 1 cake, 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup margarine
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons cocoa
2 tablespoons hot coffee
1 7/8 cups flour (that's 2 cups, minus 2 T.)
1 teaspoon red food coloring (not a typo!)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sour milk or 1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Cream margarine and sugar till fluffy. Add eggs one at a time. In a separate bowl, mix cocoa, coffee, and food coloring till a smooth paste is formed. Blend into the creamed mixture. Mix flour, salt and soda, and add to mixture alternately with sour milk or buttermilk. Add vanilla. Pour into two greased and floured cake pans, and bake at 350° for 30 minutes or till tops spring back when lightly touched.

  • Note: Take care which of your utensils you use to mix coloring mixture. Plastic or wood will pick up the red color and stain permanently. I always use metal and glass.

RED DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE WITH LEMON FROSTING



Red Devil's Food Cake with Lemon Frosting image

This is a yummy chocolate cake that is my go-to cake. I've made it since I was a little girl, learning how to cook. I always double the recipe for the frosting if I make it into a layer cake.

Categories     Lemon Desserts

Time 1h31m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ cup milk
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup white sugar
5 tablespoons butter
2 eggs
2 ounces chopped chocolate
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup butter
1 egg yolk
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Stir milk and vinegar together in a small bowl to make sour milk. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl.
  • Beat white sugar and 5 tablespoons butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add 2 eggs; beat until smooth. Beat in portions of sour milk and flour mixture alternately until smooth batter forms.
  • Melt chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, 1 to 3 minutes. Stir melted chocolate and vanilla extract into batter. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
  • Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool in the baking dish for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Beat 1/2 cup butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Beat in egg yolk; gradually beat in confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in lemon juice until smooth frosting forms. Frost cake with frosting when cake has completely cooled.

Tips:

  • To make the cake even more moist, add 1/2 cup of sour cream to the batter.

  • If you don't have a pastry bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner cut off to pipe the frosting.
  • To make the cake ahead of time, bake it according to the instructions and then freeze it. When you're ready to serve, thaw the cake overnight in the refrigerator and then frost it.
