Categories     Desserts     Frostings and Icings     Chocolate

Time 2h5m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
5 eggs
¼ cup cold brewed coffee
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup butter, softened
1 (16 ounce) package confectioners' sugar, sifted
¼ cup cold brewed coffee
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour three 9 inch round cake pans.
  • Place the sugar and butter in a mixing bowl, and beat until light colored and smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Stir the coffee and cocoa into the egg mixture until well blended. Measure the buttermilk, and remove 1 tablespoon, placing it in a separate small bowl, and set aside. Stir the remaining buttermilk into the egg mixture, beating until smooth.
  • Stir the baking soda into 1 tablespoon buttermilk until smooth, and mix into the egg mixture. Stir in the flour, beating until smooth. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick or small knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven, and cool in the pans about 15 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make the frosting, beat 1 cup butter until smooth and creamy. Gradually sift in the confectioners' sugar, and beat until smooth. Stir in the coffee, cocoa, and vanilla until well blended.
  • Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread top with about 1/5 frosting. Place the second layer on top of the first, and frost. Repeat with the third layer. Use remaining frosting to frost top and sides.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES: GRANNY STYLE RECIPE BY TASTY



Chocolate Chip Cookies: Granny Style Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: granulated sugar, brown sugar, kosher salt, unsalted butter, large egg, vanilla extract, all purpose flour, baking soda, chocolate chips, sea salt, milk

Provided by Codii Lopez

Categories     Desserts

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
2 cups chocolate chips
1 pinch sea salt
milk, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
  • Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before dissolving back into the mixture.
  • Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold with a spatula to combine. (Be careful not to overmix, as the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies.)
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes or, for a more intense, toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 centimeters) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 centimeters) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown. Top each cookie with a pinch of sea salt as soon as they come out of the oven, then let cool completely.
  • Serve with a glass of milk.
  • Enjoy!

GRANNY'S CHOCOLATE ICING



Granny's Chocolate Icing image

My mother has used this recipe for years. It makes a "hard" icing; the icing gets firm quite quickly, so you have to work fast. The original recipe came from "Winning Seasons", a cookbook from the Junior League of Tuscaloosa, Al, in 1979. You can substitute 4 tablespoons cocoa for the unsweetened chocolate, if necessary. I usually use it on a sheet cake, rather than layers.

GRANNY'S CHOCOLATE CAKE



Granny's Chocolate Cake image

This cake recipe was adapted from the chef Larry Forgione, who served his grandmother's cake recipe at his restaurant An American Place. The dessert proved so popular that every time he tried to take it off of the menu, he said his customers threatened to riot. It's a perfect proportion of crumb to buttercream, ideal for birthdays or other celebrations where layer cake is required.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     cakes, dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Butter and flour for preparing pans
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
11 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted
Chocolate frosting (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 3 9-inch round cake pans, and line the bottoms with wax or parchment paper. Lightly butter the paper. Dust pans with flour, and shake out excess.
  • Sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, combine buttermilk and vanilla.
  • In a large bowl, using an electric mixer set at medium-high speed, cream the butter. Slowly add the sugar, and continue beating until well blended and light colored. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add dry ingredients alternately with the buttermilk mixture in 2 or 3 additions, beating well after each addition. Beat in the melted chocolate until well blended. Spoon batter into prepared pans, and smooth tops with a rubber spatula.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center of a cake layer comes out clean. Let cake layers cool in the pans on wire racks for 10 minutes, then invert onto other racks and peel off the paper. Invert again, and let cool completely on the racks. Frost with chocolate frosting.
