Ultimate Cookies and Cream Oreo Cake




     Assalamualaikum dan selamat petang semua.... Dah lama aku tak buat kek yang ada krim ni... Alang-alang dah birthday ni, aku pun buat la sebijik.. Kek biasa ja pun... Rasa dia boleh tahan sedap jugak... Tapi agak manis kat krim tu... Chocolate Fudge Frosting tu bagi aku memang agak manis. Lepas ni kalau nak buat boleh ganti dengan chocolate mousse atau chocolate ganache pun ok jugak... Ikut selera laaa... Kek ni aku buat separuh adunan ja... Sebab nak test.. Guna loyang bulat 6 inci... Bila buat saiz kecik ni nampak comel la pulak... huhuuu.... Ok la, kalau ada yang nak mencuba boleh tengok resepi kat bawah tu....




Ultimate Cookies and Cream Oreo Cake
C&P :  Brown Eyed Baker


For the Cake:
• 2½ cups + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 3 cups granulated sugar
• 1 cup + 1 tablespoon Dutch-process cocoa powder
• 1 tablespoon baking soda
• 1½ teaspoons baking powder
• 1½ teaspoons salt
• 3 eggs, at room temperature
• 1½ cups buttermilk, at room temperature
• 1½ cups strong black coffee, hot
• ¾ cup vegetable oil
• 4½ teaspoons vanilla extract

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease three 8-inch round cake pans, line the bottoms with rounds of parchment paper, grease the parchment, then flour the insides of the pans, tapping out excess; set aside.
  2. In the bowl of an electric mixer (or large mixing bowl if you’re using a hand mixer), sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, coffee, oil and vanilla.
  3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix for 2 minutes on medium speed. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl and mix for an additional 20 seconds (the batter will be very thin).
  4. Divide the batter evenly among prepared pans. Bake for 20 minutes and rotate the pans in the oven. Continue to bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the cakes comes out almost clean (with a few moist crumbs), about 12 more minutes. Cool the cakes (in the pans) on wire racks for 20 minutes, then carefully turn them out onto cooling racks to cool completely.








For the Cookies and Cream Filling:
• 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
• ½ cup salted butter, at room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 12 Double Stuf Oreos, crushed or finely chopped


  1. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until smooth, about 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the powdered sugar, mixing until completely incorporated. Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, about 1 minute. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the crushed cookies.





For the Chocolate Fudge Frosting:
• 6 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
• 4½ cups powdered sugar
• 1½ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 6 tablespoons whole milk or half-and-half
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract


  1. Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth, about 1 minute, stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl halfway through.




For the White Chocolate Glaze:
• 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
• 4 tablespoons whole milk
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 6 ounces white chocolate, melted and still warm


  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until incorporated and smooth. Slowly stir in the white chocolate with a rubber spatula. The glaze should be thick yet pourable; if the glaze appears too thick, thin it out with addition milk, a tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.



To Garnish:
• Additional Oreo cookies

Assemble the Cake
  1. Place one of the cake layers on a serving platter and spread with half of the cookies and cream filling. Top with another cake layer and spread with the remaining cookies and cream filling. Top with the remaining cake layer. Frost the entire cake with the chocolate fudge frosting. Pour the white chocolate glaze onto the center of the top of the cake and allow to spread and drip over the sides. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or until it is completely set. Using the chocolate fudge frosting, pipe swirls on top of the cake and garnish with additional Oreo cookies. The cake can be kept at room temperature if being served the same day. If you are making the cake ahead of time (or have leftovers), store it in the refrigerator but allow it to sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour prior to serving.

Matcha (Japanese Green Tea) Tiramisu



      Assalamualaikum dan selamat malam semua... Hari ni aku berkesempatan nak share satu resepi tiramisu... Kali ni bukan tiramisu yang selalu kita dok makan tu... Tiramisu ni lain sikit... Sebabnya digantikan dengan rasa green tea... Boleh tahan rasanya... Kalau sapa-sapa yang suka green tea tu kena la cuba tau.... Kalau nak mudah kan, aku bagi cadangan baik buat dalam gelas kecil-kecil. Sebab apa, resepi ni tak letak gelatin. Jadi dia lembik sikit masa nak potong tu... Delamat mencubaaa...






Matcha Tiramisu
C&P : Amy
Makes 9 by 5-inch


2 large egg yolks, room temperature
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup Matcha powder, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream, chilled
1/4 cup powdered sugar
8 oz. mascarpone cheese, room temperature
12 to 14 Savaiordi ladyfingers

  1. In a medium pot, fill with 2 inches of water, set a mixing bowl over the pot of water. Make sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Bring the water to a simmer and reduce the heat to low. Add egg yolks, salt and sugar to the mixing bowl and whisk until the mixture thicken and lighten. When lifting the whisk, the mixture should fall back on itself looks like thick ribbons. Place the bowl over an ice bath to cool.
  2. In a small pot, bring the milk to a simmer, remove from heat and whisk in 2 tablespoons of Matcha Powder and vanilla extract until melted and no lumps. Transfer to a shallow dish and let it cool slightly.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until medium peak forms. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat mascarpone cheese until smooth. Gently fold the egg mixture into the mascarpone until incorporated. Then fold the cream mixture into the mascarpone mixture until well combined.
  4. To assemble, line a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan with plastic wraps, allowing the excess to hang over the ends and sides. Quickly dip both sides of the ladyfingers in the Matcha mixture (just long enough to moisten the cookies without making them soggy) and place them on the bottom of the pan. Spoon 1/2 of the mascarpone mixture on top of the cookies, smooth the surface and sprinkle the top with Matcha powder. Dip the remaining cookies and place on top of the cream. Spoon the remaining mascarpone mixture over the cookies. Smooth the top and fold the plastic wrap to cover the cream. Refrigerate for at least six hours, preferably overnight. Your patient will be rewarded. Before serving, dust with more Matcha powder and leave at room temperature for 15 minutes.

Red Velvet Cheese Brownies
C&P : Azie Kitchen


Bahan bahan:
2 1/2 cawan all-purpose flour
1 sk garam
2 sb cocoa powder
1 1/3 cwn vegetable oil (atau 113gm mentega - dicairkan)
1 cwn buttermilk - suhu bilik (atau 1sb jus lemon + 1 cwn susu)
1 sb red food colouring
1 sk vanilla extract
2 biji telur gred A - suhu bilik (saya guna 2 saiz B jer)
1 1/4 cawan gula kaster
1 sk white distilled vinegar
1 sk baking soda


Cara-cara:
  1. Pukul minyak dan gula sehingga sebati dan masukkan telur, pukul lagi sehingga kembang dan ringan selama 2-3 minit. Satukan tepung gandum, serbuk koko dan garam sebelum diayak.
  2. Dalam mangkuk lain, satukan buttermilk, pewarna merah dan esen vanila.Menggunakan kelajuan sederhana, masukkan 1/2 dari tepung diikuti dengan buttermilk dan akhir sekali kesemua baki tepung. Dalam satu mangkuk kecil, campurkan cuka dengan baking soda. Campuran akan berbuih atau berbusa. Dengan segera tuang ke dalam adunan dan terus kaup balik.
  3.  Masukkan adunan ke dalam loyang 4 persegi saiz 9x9 atau 10x10 inci yang telah diletakkan baking paper. Ketepikan lebih kurang 2-3 sudu besar adunan untuk dibuat corak atas lapisan cheese tu nanti.
  4. Bakar di dalam oven yang telah dipanaskan pada suhu 170C selama 1 jam atau sehingga kek masak. Sementara kek dibakar, boleh sediakan adunan cheese.
  5. Setelah masak, boleh ditekan tekankan sedikit kek jika ianya agak meninggi. Kemudian tuangkan adunan cheese dengan tak perlu disejukkan.
  6. Ratakan lapisan cheese.Isikan adunan brownies yang diasingkan tadi dalam piping beg dan paipkan secara melintang sehingga habis. Kemudian lorekkan secara ulang alik menggunakan lidi bersih atau corak mengikut kreativiti masing masing.
  7. Sambung membakar selama 20-30 minit lagi atau hingga masak. Biarkan betul betul sejuk, saya balut dengan plastik dan masukkan ke dalam peti sejuk. Akhir sekali dipotong dengan pisau yang dicelup dengan air panas dan lap sebelum digunakan.






Lapisan Cheese

Bahan bahan:
350 gm cream cheese
1 cawan gula ising
1 biji telur gred A
1 sb jus Lemon

Cara cara:
  1. Dengan menggunakan electric mixer, putar cream cheese hingga berkrim. Masukkan gula icing dan pukul hingga sebati. Kemudian masukkan telur dan putar lagi hingga sebati. Kemudian masukkan jus lemon dan putar lagi. Tuangkan atas brownies yang telah masak tadi dan ratakan.


Nota:
  • Buangkan baking paper dari brownies dan simpan brownies dalam peti ais utk mendapatkan rasa yang lebih sedap dan brownies juga lebih mudah dan cantik dipotong bila sejuk.
  • Utk membakar selepas dimasukkan lapisan cheese, boleh la menggunakan api bawah sahaja apabila permukaan cheese mula menampakkan warna keperangan.
  • Boleh juga jika ingin menggunakan tepung gandum biasa, cuma tambahkan 1 sudu kecil baking powder dan 1/2 sudu kecil soda bikarbonat (kemudian ayakkan sekali dgn tepung dan serbuk koko). Shiela menggunakan Tepung kek yang boleh dibuat sendiri iaitu bagi 1 cawan, masukkan 2 sudu besar tepung jagung dan selebihnya dengan tepung gandum.
  • Utk mendapakan potongan yg licin dan cantik, gunakan pisau yang dipanaskan terlebih dahulu.
