BUTTERNUT PECAN CAKE WITH CLASSIC BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the sides and bottoms of two 8-inch round cake pans. Line the bottoms and sides with parchment if desired (for easy removal).
• Add the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar and salt to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and combine well. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg whites, vegetable oil and vanilla bean paste and whisk to combine. Set aside.
• Turn the mixer to low and add the chunks of butter slowly to the dry mix. Continue to beat on low until there are no chunks of butter remaining and the mixture becomes crumbly. Add a third of the wet ingredients to the bowl and then turn the speed to medium. Mix until a light paste forms, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add half of the remaining wet ingredients and beat on medium-high speed for 4 minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl.

Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and bake until a skewer comes out clean and the sides have begun to pull away from the sides of the pans, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool in the pans on a rack, 10 minutes, then invert onto the rack to remove the pans and parchment and cool completely.

BUTTER PECAN FLAN CAKE

Steps:

• Cake Mix: Mix cake according to the directions on the back of the box. Combine Cake mix, sprite, oil, vanilla extract, caramel flavoring and eggs, mix well. Do not use both water and coke.
• Flan Part: Combine evaporated milk, sweet condensed milk, eggs, vanilla extract and caramel flavoring, mix with mixer or in a blender. Mix for 2-3 min. Set aside. You can use 3 to 5 eggs, the more eggs you use the creamer the flan will be. \ Set flan mixture aside.
• Caramel Sauce: Spray Bundt pan with Pam or Joy (flour plus oil) spray. Pour of 1 1/2 cups Cajeta or caramel sauce/topping into bottom of bundt pan.
• Assemble the cake: 1. Spray 12 cup bundt pan with Pam or Joy (flour plus oil)spray. 2. Pour 1 1/2 cup Cajeta or caramel sauce into bottom of bundt pan. 3. Pour cake batter evenly on top of caramel that is in the bundt pan. 4. Slowly pour flan mixture on top of cake batter. The flan mixture will sink to the bottom of the cake batter by itself. This will cause the cake batter to rise up in the bundt pan. Make sure it doesn't overflow.
• Prepare cake to bake: Get a pan large enough for the bundt pan to fit inside. I use a 9 x 13 inch cake pan. Fill the 9 x 13 inch pan with 2 inches of water. Place bundt pan in the pan with the water in it. Place both pans in the oven. Cover the bundt pan with foil for the first 35 minutes of baking.
• Bake the cake: Preheat oven 400 degrees, Bake about 1 hour. Start checking cake after 45 minutes and check every 15 minutes until done. It is very important for cake to be completely done or flan will not set. Check cake with toothpick, also take a knife and gently pull the cake a little from the middle tube/center of cake and peak at cake. If gooey the cake is not done and put back in oven. Also, the cake will separate from the sides and middle of the pan when done. This seems to be the most difficult part about baking this cake. If cake is not done then the flan will be not set up. When done remove bundt pan from larger pan with water and set on cooling rack.
• Serving the cake: Although very tempting DO NOT serve before cooling cake! Cool cake on cooling rack at room temperature then place cake in refrigerator at least 2-3 hours before trying to serve. I make mine the night before and refrigerate overnight. Remove from refrigerator 1-2 hours before serving. Take a large serving platter and put on top of bundt pan and flip cake over. The cake will come out of the bundt pan. This cake is layered with the cake on the bottom, topped with the flan and the caramel on top and dripping down the sides of the cake. If transporting the cake to another location leave the cake in the bundt pan and flip it onto a platter when you get there.
