Coffee Marshmallow Sponge Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly butter an 8-inch square pan.
• In a large pot, melt the butter over very low heat. Stir in the marshmallows, getting them all coated with the butter. Slowly melt the marshmallows, stirring frequently. When the marshmallows are melted and smooth, remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the instant coffee (2 tablespoons for a rich coffee flavor, 3 tablespoons for a real kick) and mix until it is dissolved into the melted marshmallow. Gently fold in the rice cereal. When it is completely coated, lightly press the mixture into the prepared pan with your buttered hands. When cool, cut the treats into bars and serve.

Steps:

• Beat egg yolks and sugar till fluffy and pale in color.
• Then mix in the oil and milk.
• Mix flour, baking powder and salt, in a measuring cup.
• Fold marshmallow fluff into the egg yolk mixture.
• Sift in the flour and fold it in, a few lumps are okay.
• Then pour the mixture into a 8 by 8" pan.
• Sprinkle on the marshmallows and tap the pan to get our the air bubbles.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes.
• Then let it cool upside down so that the moisture stays inches.
• Dust in powdered sugar if desired.
• DIG IN!

Steps:

• Butter side and bottom of a 9" round pan; line bottom with parchment paper.
• Sift flour, baking powder and salt together; set aside.
• Heat milk in a small saucepan over low heat until 150°F (pretty hot, but don't let milk boil); remove from heat.
• While milk is heating, beat eggs in a large bowl until yolks and whites are well-combined.
• Add sugar, then beat on high speed for about 4 mins until mixture is light, fluffy and thickened.
• Turn to low speed and beat in vanilla and dissolved coffee.
• Add in flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated.
• Slowly add in hot milk, continue mixing (low speed) until mixture is smooth (batter will be thin).
• Turn the batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the middle rack of a preheated oven at 350°F for 25 mins until the top feels firm when touched lightly, and a toothpick inserted in the center of cake comes out with just a few crumbs clinging to it.
• Cool cake for 5 mins in the pan.
• Loosen the side of the cake from the pan using a small knife, and invert the cake onto a wire rack.
• Remove the parchment paper from the bottom of the cake and replace it loosely on the cake.
• Let the cake cool thoroughly, top side down.
• To make the syrup: Dissolve coffee granules and sugar in warm water (mix in a small bowl), then stir in the Kahlua/brandy.
• Assembly: Cut the sponge cake into 2 layers with a long serrated knife; set bottom layer onto a cake board/lazy susan.
• Brush top of 1st layer generously with syrup, and fill with the desired filling/frosting.
• Brush the 2nd layer of cake with syrup and set it on top of the filling, syrup side down.
• Brush the top of the cake with remaining syrup and frost the top and side as desired.

Steps:

• Sift flour, cocoa, salt and baking powder. Set aside.
• Beat eggs and sugar until thick and creamy. Add oil and vanilla.
• Beat 5 minutes.
• Add melted chocolate.
• Place milk and butter in saucepan and stir until butter has melted and mixture comes to a boil. Remove at once.
• Add milk mixture alternately to the egg mixture with sifted dry ingredients. (I do not let it cool before alternately adding with the dry ingredients.).
• Pour into 2- 9 inch round greased and floured (or use cocoa) pans and bake at 350* for 10-15 minutes.(do not overbake, layers are thin).
• Cool, fill and frost as desired.
• Filling instructions:.
• Beat all ingredients until spreading consistency (I beat quite stiff). Decorate with white chocolate shavings.
• Note: There is enough whipped frosting to generously fill in between the layers.
