COFFEE DOUGHNUTS WITH COFFEE GLAZE

Steps:

• Make the doughnuts:
• Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
• Beat granulated sugar and butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes.
• Add egg and continue to beat, scraping down sides of bowl as needed, until incorporated. Reduce speed to low and gradually add buttermilk and coffee concentrate, beating just until combined. Gradually add dry ingredients and beat just until dough comes together.
• Turn out dough onto a large piece of parchment paper and cover with a second sheet of parchment. Using a rolling pin, roll dough between parchment sheets to about 1/3" thick. Transfer dough in parchment to a rimmed baking sheet and freeze until firm, about 20 minutes.
• Peel off top sheet of parchment. Working on bottom sheet, punch out as many rounds as you can with 3" cutter, then use 1" cutter to punch out center of each round. Gather doughnut holes and scraps and re-roll; repeat process 3-4 times until all dough has been used (you should have 12 doughnuts). Place doughnuts on a second parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze until slightly chilled, about 5 minutes.
• Pour oil into a heavy-duty pot to a depth of 2" and fit pot with deep-fry thermometer. Heat oil to 375ºF. Working in batches, fry doughnuts until deep golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a wire rack lined with paper towels and let cool 2-3 minutes.
• Make the Coffee Glaze:
• Whisk powdered sugar and coffee concentrate in a large bowl until smooth. Dip warm doughnuts in glaze. Place on a wire rack to let glaze set, about 3 minutes, then dip again.

• In large bowl, combine sugar, eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla and whisk until smooth. Add melted chocolate mixture and whisk until smooth. Gently fold in flour, just until it disappears. Fold in pecans. Pour into prepared pan; smooth top.
• Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Cool brownies on rack 1 hour.
• Whisk Kahlua, vanilla and butter in small bowl until well blended. Add powdered sugar and whisk until smooth icing forms. Spread over brownies and let set at least 1 hour before cutting.

CHOCOLATE STOUT CAKE WITH COFFEE GLAZE

Steps:

• Place a rack in the lower third of the oven and heat to 350 degrees.
• In a small bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon flour with 1 tablespoon natural process cocoa powder. Grease the inside of a 12-cup Bundt pan with butter and dust with this mixture, taking care to coat the pan entirely.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the remaining flour with the baking soda. In a large bowl, stir together remaining cocoa powders with the brown sugar and salt. (Mixture will be lumpy.)
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter with the oil, beer and coffee, whisking occasionally. When the butter is fully melted and the mixture is hot, pour this mixture into the large bowl with the cocoa powder mixture, and whisk well to combine. Let this mixture cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, in a large liquid measuring cup or bowl, whisk together the sour cream, eggs and whiskey. Pour this mixture into the cocoa mixture, whisking as you go, until well combined.
• Add the flour in two to three additions, whisking between each addition, until smooth and no clumps remain. (The batter will be a tad thin.)
• Pour batter into the prepared Bundt pan and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, rotating your pan at 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.
• Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes, then invert and release onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• Make the glaze while Bundt is cooling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, sour cream, whiskey, salt and 1 tablespoon of coffee until smooth. The glaze should make slowly disappearing ribbons when you lift the whisk, similar to the texture of molasses or honey. Add more coffee 1 teaspoon at a time as needed. (To test the glaze, drizzle some on an inverted coffee cup or bowl; it should be a little thick and travel slowly down the sides.)
• Once the Bundt has cooled completely, use a piping bag, spatula or spoon to glaze your cake. While the glaze is still wet, sprinkle cacao nibs over the surface, pressing lightly to adhere, and let the glaze set until firm, about 30 minutes to 1 hour.

HOW TO MAKE COFFEE ICING

Steps:

• Prepare the strong-brewed coffee and set it aside. You can make some using a coffee maker or one part instant coffee and one part hot water. You can also use a shot of espresso.
• Pour the powdered sugar through a sieve into a bowl. This will break up any clumps that might be in the sugar, resulting in a smoother texture when you finish.
• Mix in the strongly-brewed coffee. Pour the coffee into the sugar while mixing the sugar briskly with a fork or a small whisk. You will get a thick, syrup-like consistency.
• Pour the glaze over your cake, cupcake, or pastry. Work quickly, as this glaze will harden up.

COFFEE CAKE WITH COFFEE BUTTERCREAM, COFFEE GLACé ICING AND CANDIED WALNUTS

Steps:

• For the coffee cake, preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Grease and line a 23cm/9in loose-bottomed cake tin.
• Place the butter and sugar in a large bowl and beat until light and fluffy.
• Gradually add the eggs, continually beating, then the coffee essence. Sieve in the flour and fold in.
• Pour into the prepared cake tin and level off with a palette knife.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden-brown and risen.
• Remove from the tin and allow to cool on a cooling rack.
• For the coffee buttercream, place the softened butter in a bowl and mix with a hand-held electric mixer. Add the sifted icing sugar and beat together. Dissolve the coffee in the water and add to the buttercream and stir. Set aside.
• For the glacé icing, place the coffee and boiling water into a bowl to dissolve, then add the icing sugar and beat until smooth. Add a little more boiling water if needed until the mixture comes to a spreadable consistency.
• For the candied walnuts, place the sugar and 110ml/3½fl oz water into a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add the walnuts and cook for a couple of minutes, or until just tender. Drain and place onto a large sheet of greaseproof paper.
• Heat 2.5cm/1in of vegetable oil in a saucepan until just shimmering. (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)
• Carefully add the candied walnuts to the oil and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until just golden-brown.
• Lift out and drain on a fresh sheet of greaseproof paper. Leave until cool.
• To assemble the cake, cut the cake in half horizontally. Spread the buttercream over one half of the cake and place the other half on top. Spread the glacé icing over the top and decorate with candied walnuts.

MOCHA DARK CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CAPPUCCINO FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Grease one 9x13 or two 9" round cake pans.
• Cake: combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa.
• Add the molasses, mayonnaise, and vegetable oil. Mix well.
• While mixing, pour in the hot coffee.
• Add the vanilla and chocolate chips, stir until combined. Batter will be thinner than normal cake batters.
• Pour the batter into the pan(s). Bake for the 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. 9x13 pans usually need to go for a few more minutes.
• If you are layering the round cakes, cool them for ten minutes on a wire rack, run a knife gently around the edges, flip pans over, rest for 10 minutes, then remove cakes from pans. Don't worry if they break apart a little bit. You can "glue" them back together with glaze and frosting!
• Allow cakes to cool completely, even overnight, before glazing/frosting.
• Espresso/Coffee Glaze:.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar and coffee/espresso. Stir until sugar is dissolved.
• Allow to cool to body temperature or lower.
• Cappuccino Frosting.
• Combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
• Combine butter and shortening in a seperate, large bowl or mixer. Beat until fluffy.
• Add vanilla to the butter/shortening mixture.
• To the butter mixture, add half of the dry ingredients, beat, then half of the espresso/coffee, beat some more, then the other half of the dry ingredients, beat again.
• Add the remaining coffee slowly, only until desired consistency is reached. For a frosted layer cake, you want it to be a bit thick, but still smooth and fluffy.
• Assembly:.
• Set up desired cake board with one of the round cakes. Brush the ckae entirely with the semi-cool coffee glaze.
• Allow the glaze about 5 minutes to set.
• Spread a generous layer of frosting on top and place the second cake.
• Glaze the second cake.
• If you have any leftover glaze, just keep brushing it on (resist the urge to sip it, if you can!).
• Frost the sides and top of the cake with remaining frosting.
• Store cake in the refrigerator until you need it, as that will set the frosting properly. Because of the shortening, it will sit out well in normal temperatures, once it's been chilled.
• Enjoy!
