';Hummingbird Cake'; Recipe #42827











This cake is soooooo good! I made it word for word as the recipe says, the only change being that I put chopped pecans all around the side because my husband and I both love pecans! It was very easy to make and as I mentioned already - the taste was amazing! The only thing I would think about doing different is to bake it in 2 round pans instead of 3 - just for simplicity of serving!

I serve this at all my parties, It's SUCH a huge hit!!!
This recipe is so delicious and BEAUTIFUL when it comes out of the pan! (I recommend sifting cocoa pwder on top and adding chocolate shavings)





Chocolate Mousse Cake





2 dozen macaroons, crumbled


1/2 cup kaluia or strong espresso


1/2 pound (2 sticks) butter


1 cup sugar


6 eggs, separated


2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted


1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


1 dozen double ladyfingers, separated in 1/2


3/4 cup heavy cream, whipped with 3 tablespoons sugar until stiff





Soak crumbled macaroons in kaluia or espresso. With an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar together until fluffy. Beat in 6 lightly beaten egg yolks. Add the melted chocolate, vanilla, and soaked macaroons. In a separate clean mixing bowl, beat the 6 egg whites until stiff and then fold into chocolate mixture.


Grease a springform pan and then line it with separated ladyfingers. Alternate layers of the chocolate mixture with the remaining ladyfingers. Chill at least 4 hours. Remove from pan and decorate with whipped cream.
My son and I made an ';Incredible Melted Ice Cream Cake'; this weekend and it was a big hit, and super easy:





2 cups melted ice cream (a pint of Ben and Jerry's - any flavor)


1 box of white cake mix


3 large eggs.





Beat all of these ingredients together with a mixer for one minute at low speed. Scrape the sides down with a spatula. Mix for 2 minutes more at medium speed. The batter will be thick and smooth. Pour into a greased and floured bundt pan and smooth out the top. Bake at about 350 for 45 minutes or until the sides begin to pull away from the pan and the cake springs back when you press your finger into it. Allow to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Run a knife around the sides and invert. Allow to cool and frost with your favorite frosting, to match the ice cream flavor that you used.





Yummy!
