Brown Sugar And Chocolate Chip Pound Cake With Maple Espresso Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees, and butter and flour a 12-cup (or larger) capacity bundt pan.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cardamom, allspice and black pepper until well combined.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine brown sugar, butter and olive oil. Beat on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing for about 20 seconds in between each egg. Add the pumpkin purée and sour cream, and mix until well combined, scraping the bottom and sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer, and use a rubber spatula to fold in the dry ingredients until well combined. Make sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl to ensure an evenly mixed batter.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top and firmly tap the pan on the countertop a few times to release any large air bubbles. Bake the cake until golden and puffed, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes.
• Set the cake, still in its pan, on a rack to cool for 20 minutes, then use the tip of a knife to loosen the edges and invert the cake onto the rack to cool completely before glazing.
• Make the glaze: Once the cake is cool, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook the butter, occasionally scraping the bottom and sides of the pan with a rubber spatula until it turns a deep golden brown and smells nutty. Don't walk away from the pan during this process. The butter can go from brown and nutty to acrid and burnt in mere moments.
• Transfer butter and all the brown bits from the pan to a heat-safe bowl, and let it cool slightly. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar, maple syrup and salt until smooth. The glaze should be thick but pourable. If it's too thin, add a bit more confectioners' sugar. If it's too thick, add a few drops of water.
• Transfer the cake to a serving platter and pour the glaze evenly over the top. Sprinkle with pepitas if desired. Let the glaze set for a few minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• PREPARE THE CAKE:.
• Preheat oven to 325°F
• Butter 12-cup Bundt pan.
• Spray pan generously with nonstick spray.
• Dust pan lightly with flour.
• Mix chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons flour in medium bowl.
• Sift remaining flour with baking soda, baking powder, and salt into another medium bowl.
• Using electric mixer, beat butter and brown sugar in large bowl until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Beat in vanilla extract and maple extract.
• Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Mix in flour mixture in 3 additions alternately with buttermilk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
• Fold in chocolate chip mixture.
• Transfer batter to prepared pan, spreading evenly.
• Bake cake until tester inserted near center comes out clean and cake begins to pull away from sides of pan, about 1 hour.
• Cool cake in pan on rack 30 minutes.
• Invert cake onto rack and cool completely.
• PREPARE THE GLAZE:.
• Combine powdered sugar, maple syrup, 2 tablespoons cream, and espresso powder in medium bowl.
• Whisk until smooth, adding more cream by 1/2 teaspoonfuls if glaze is too thick to drizzle.
• Spoon glaze decoratively over top of cake; let stand at room temperature until glaze is firm, about 1 hour.
• *Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with cake dome and let stand at room temperature.
• GOOD TO KNOW:.
• Mixing the chocolate chips with a little flour before adding them to the batter helps the chips stay evenly suspended in the batter and evenly distributed throughout the baked cake (otherwise, they may sink to the bottom).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Cream together the butter and the brown sugar.
• Add the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla.
• Add the dry ingredients until just combines.
• Using a spoon, mix in the chocolate chips.
• This is an optional step -- I usually make the cookie dough a day ahead of time, and leave it in the fridge overnight. I think it helps make the cookies more chewy, which is how I like them! Then when I take them out the next day to bake, sometimes I'll form the balls of dough, and roll them in chopped pecans before putting them in the oven. But these are both totally optional! The cookies are amazing either way!
• Drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 400 for 7-9 minutes. BUT WATCH THEM! A lot of ovens will cook them too fast on the outside, and not enough on the inside. At my boyfriend's house I will bake them at 400 for about 4-5 minutes, then lower the temp to 350 for 4-5 more minutes.
• Let sit on the cookie sheet for about 5 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack. Enjoy!
