Graham Cracker Cake With Buttercream Frosting Food

GRAHAM CRACKER CAKE WITH PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING

Steps:

• For the cake: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
• Lightly coat two 9-inch cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Line the bottoms with parchment rounds; lightly coat parchment with nonstick spray.
• Whisk together both of the flours, baking powder, salt, baking soda and cinnamon in a large bowl until combined. Beat the butter, granulated sugar and vanilla in another bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the whole eggs and yolks one at a time, beating to blend between additions and occasionally scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl, until the batter is completely combined, smooth and creamy. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
• Scrape the batter evenly into the prepared pans. Smooth the tops. Bake, rotating the pans from left to right halfway through, until the cakes are a light golden brown and a tester inserted into the centers comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer the pans to a wire rack and let the cakes cool for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the sides of the cakes and invert onto the wire rack. Remove the parchment and let the cakes cool completely.
• For the frosting: Beat the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, butter, vanilla and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until very smooth, about 5 minutes. Add the cream, then continue to beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes longer. Set aside at room temperature until ready to assemble.
• To assemble: Place one cake domed-side down on a platter. Spread 1 cup of the frosting evenly over the top. Place the remaining cake domed-side up on top. Spread the top with 1 1/2 cups of frosting. Frost the sides of the cake with 1 1/2 cups of frosting and smooth out completely to make an even crumb coat. (It's okay if some of the cake shows through. This is just a base layer.) Refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the frosting set. Spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides, smoothing it out with a large offset spatula.

GRAHAM CRACKER ECLAIR "CAKE"

Steps:

• Arrange 10 graham squares, overlapping slightly, in an 8 inch square baking pan.
• In a large bowl, pour milk and then add dry pudding mix and beat with wire whisk for 2 minutes or until well blended. Let stand 5 minutes or until thickened.
• Gently stir in whipped topping into pudding mix until well blended.
• Spread half of the pudding mixture onto the graham squares in the pan.
• Top with another 10 graham squares and then remaining pudding mixture.
• Top with the remaining 10 graham squares.
• Refrigerate for a minimum of 3 hours.
• Spread with chocolate frosting just before serving.

NO BAKE PUDDING GRAHAM CRACKER CAKE

Steps:

• Make both the Vanilla and Chocolate pudding as directed on the box.
• Take the whipping cream and mix on high speed until it becomes the consistency of cool whip.
• Mix the whipping cream and the vanilla pudding together.
• Start layering graham crackers covered with chocolate and vanilla pudding, alternating between the two flavors. I always use a rectangular serving platter.
• When Chocolate pudding is gone use remaining vanilla pudding mixture to cover the entire cake (just like you were icing it).
• Drizzle chocolate sauce in lines across the top of the cake(no need to be perfect), take a knife and drag it in the opposite direction of the syrup lines to make a nice patter.
• Refrigerate the entire cake at least 3 hours.
• The graham crackers will absorb the moister from the pudding and become soft like cake.
• Cut on the corner going in to create a neat looking slice.
• Good Luck with leftovers because there never is any.

GRAHAM CRACKER CAKE

Steps:

• Mix sugar, melted margarine, and pineapple.
• Add the finely crushed graham crackers to the mixture until thick enough to spread (fairly thick).
• Place a layer of the whole graham crackers on a serving/cake plate.
• (You're going to build up layers to form a cake, similar in size and shape of a 1/4 sheet cake).
• Spread a layer of the mixture on the whole cracker layer.
• Put a layer of whole crackers on the mixture.
• Keep alternating layers of the mixture and the whole crackers until you have a desireable size and shape.
• "Frost"top and sides with remaining mixture.
• Best when made the day before, so that the graham crackers can get kind of soft and the flavors can combine.
• Can be refrigerated or just covered.
