Doodle Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 8-inch cake pans with shortening and dust with about 1 teaspoon flour, shaking to remove excess flour.
• Beat 1/2 cup butter in a bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add white sugar and beat until incorporated into the creamed butter. Add eggs, 1 at a time, to creamed butter mixture, beating until thoroughly combined before adding the next egg. Stir 1 teaspoon vanilla extract into creamed butter mixture.
• Whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Gradually beat 1/3 the flour mixture into butter mixture, alternating with the 3/4 cup milk and ending with flour mixture until batter is smooth. Pour batter into the prepared cake pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Turn cakes onto a wire rack to cool completely, at least 30 minutes.
• Beat 1/2 cup butter in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and honey. Gradually beat enough confectioners' sugar into creamed butter mixture to reach desired consistency, adding 1 tablespoon milk if needed to thin the icing.
• Spread 1/3 the icing over the top of 1 cake using a spatula. Place the second cake over the icing layer and spread remaining icing over entire cake.

Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, cut out paper templates (see Expert Tips below). Place cooled cakes on work surface. Place templates over cakes as shown.
• Cut cake around templates. (Discard cake pieces cut from around templates, or save for another use.) Arrange cake pieces on tray as shown. Freeze 1 hour for easier frosting.
• Tint 1 container frosting light brown, using brown and yellow gels. Spread frosting over entire cake to seal in crumbs, using extra frosting to attach nose, ears and legs on cake.
• Tint 1/2 container frosting dark brown, using brown and yellow gels. Using pastry bag fitted with grass icing tip (#233 or #133, depending on manufacturer), frost ears. Tint remaining container frosting light brown, using brown and yellow gels. Frost head, using grass tip. Create definition near eyebrows by applying additional frosting with grass tip.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Mix cake ingredients together.
• Pour into 13"x9"x2" cake pan.
• Bake for about 30 minutes.
• TOPPING: Mix milk, margarine and sugar together in saucepan.
• Boil for 3 minutes over medium heat.
• Add Pecans and coconut.
• Pour over cake while still hot.

Steps:

• Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottom of each with parchment.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk the egg white, milk and vanilla together in another medium bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high until light and fluffy. Add about a third of the flour mixture and beat on medium-low until incorporated. Now add a third of the egg-milk mixture and continue to beat on medium-low until incorporated, scraping down the side of the bowl as needed. Repeat with the remaining flour and egg-milk mixtures, finishing with the flour. Divide the cake batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and bake until the cake bounces back when pressed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool completely in the cake pans on a rack.
• Make the buttercream: Bring a few inches of water to a boil in a saucepan that can hold a heatproof stand mixer's bowl above the water.
• Add the 3/4 cup sugar, cream of tartar, salt and egg whites, to the mixing bowl and whisk together by hand. Set the bowl above the boiling water and whisk until the mixture is warm to the touch and the sugar completely dissolves. Transfer to the stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat at medium-high speed until cool and the whites hold stiff peaks, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Toss in a couple of chunks of butter at a time, making sure the pieces are incorporated before adding more. After all the butter is added, continue whisking on medium-high speed. The mixture will deflate and appear curdled. Continue whisking until the buttercream comes back together to form a smooth and spreadable consistency. Beat in 1 teaspoon cinnamon and vanilla.
• Combine the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon together in a small bowl.
• To assemble: Slice each cake in half horizontally for a total of 4 cake rounds (set aside one of the bottom pieces for the top layer). Put 1 round on a cake stand or serving platter, and spread about 1 cup of the buttercream on top, all the way to the edge. Sprinkle with some of the cinnamon-sugar. Repeat with 2 more layers of cake, buttercream and cinnamon-sugar. Place the reserved cake round on top (browned-side up). Frost with the remaining buttercream and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon-sugar. Let sit for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven as directed on box. Make cake batter as directed on box, using water, oil and egg whites. Fill 4 mini (4 inch) springform pans half full with cake batter. Bake about 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely in pans on cooling rack, about 45 minutes.
• Remove cooled cakes from pans; place each on cake board. Place strips of cooking parchment paper underneath edges of cakes. With icing spatula, spread frosting over cakes, making it as smooth as possible. Place cakes in freezer to set.
• Meanwhile, place fondant on clean work surface. Use powdered sugar if fondant begins to stick to surface. With rolling pin, roll fondant to about 1/4-inch thickness. Do not roll fondant too thin or it will crack when cakes are assembled.
• Invert cake pan over rolled fondant to check for sizing. Cut fondant 1 inch larger than cake diameter to ensure it drapes properly. Cut 4 rounds.
• Remove cakes from freezer. Carefully drape 1 fondant round over each cake, smoothing it with hands and shaping it to cake. Using sharp paring knife, trim off excess fondant. Remove and discard parchment paper from underneath each cake. Return cakes to freezer to set.
• Using edible markers, draw on cakes as desired.
