Slow Cooker Zebra Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Mix all the dry ingredients together. Then, add oil and yogurt and mix well.
• Then, add water in small increments to make a batter of medium consistency. Once incorporated, add vanilla extract.
• Separate the batter into 2 equal portions. Keep one as vanilla. In a separate cup, mix cocoa powder with 2 tbsp water to make a chocolate paste: add this pasta to your second portion of mix to make chocolate-flavored cake batter.
• Now take a cupcake mold and grease it with oil and all-purpose flour.
• Add one layer of vanilla batter, followed by one layer of chocolate batter, then repeat.
• Preheat the oven for 200°F degrees for 15 mins.
• Make designs in the cupcakes with the help of a toothpick, then bake for 20-25 minutes until done.
• Serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a bowl sift the flour cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In another bowl, add the butter, milk, and vanilla. Whisk until well-combined. Cover with a kitchen towel and set aside.
• In two large bowls, separate 3 eggs into yolks and whites. Crack the last 2 whole eggs in the bowl with the egg yolks.
• Pour 6 tablespoons of sugar into the egg yolk bowl. Mix on high until the batter is thick and pale yellow, about 5 minutes.
• Beat the egg whites on high until frothy, then gradually add the 6 tablespoons of sugar. Continue beating until soft peaks form.
• Gently fold in the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites.
• Add the flour mixture, continue folding until the flour is mixed in. Create a well in the bowl, pour in the butter mixture. Fold all of the ingredients until the batter is smooth and silky.
• Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Pour half of the batter into a smaller bowl. Sift the cocoa powder over the batter. Fold in until the cocoa powder is fully incorporated.
• In a greased parchment paper-lined 8-inch (20 cm) cake pan, spoon in a scoop of the vanilla batter in the center of the pan.
• Spoon in a scoop of the chocolate batter over the vanilla in the center.
• Repeat until you have poured about 6 to 8 layers, keeping in mind you will be spooning in a little less batter each layer.
• Using a chopstick or skewer, gently draw a line from the edge of the pan to the center. Repeat until you have made 8 lines. Pour a little chocolate dot in the center.
• Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
• Use a knife or spatula to gently release the cake from the edge of the pan. Cover the cake with a greased plate. Flip the cake on to the plate then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Let cool for about 20 minutes before slicing.
• For the strawberry sauce, heat a saucepan over medium heat. Add the strawberries and sugar, and stir until bubbling. Remove from heat.
• Serve with strawberry sauce and whipped cream!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Beat cream in a large glass or metal mixing bowl with an electric mixer. Gradually add confectioners' sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until the cream holds stiff peaks. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the whipped cream should form a sharp peak that holds its shape.
• Spread a generous teaspoon of whipped cream on each cookie. Press cookies together to make 3-inch stacks.
• Spread a 1-inch wide line of whipped cream down center of a serving platter. Assemble cookie stacks into a log on platter following the line of whipped cream.
• Frost cookie log with remaining whipped cream and sprinkle with grated chocolate.
• Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight.
• To serve, slice diagonally to create striped pieces.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter and line three 20cm loose-bottomed sandwich cake tins with baking parchment.
• To make the sponge, beat the butter and sugar together in a stand mixer or using an electric whisk for 5-8 mins or until light and fluffy. Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Fold in the flour, baking powder and milk to loosen. Divide the mixture between three mixing bowls, weighing for accuracy if you like. Colour one of the batters blue and another pink, starting with a little colouring, then adding more for a deeper finish. Leave one of the bowls of batter uncoloured.
• Get the three cake tins and bowls of batter ready in front of you. Spoon a heaped tablespoon of blue batter into the centre of the first tin, then pink in the second, and plain in the third. Working quickly so that it doesn't spread too much, add another dollop of a different coloured batter on top of each one. Don't wait for the batter to settle or spread, just keep alternating the colours until you run out. The weight of each layer will cause the batter to spread as you go, so very gently tap and shake the cake tins to even out the mixture, then bake in the centre of the oven for 25-30 mins or until firm to the touch. Turn out top-side down onto wire racks straightaway, then leave to cool completely.
• For the icing, put the butter, icing sugar and vanilla seeds into a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or put in a bowl and use an electric whisk. Beat for 5 mins or until fluffy and aerated. Add the cream cheese and beat briefly until just combined.
• Place one of the cakes on a cake stand or serving plate and spread 2 tbsp of the buttercream on top, then repeat with the other sponges. Spread a smooth layer of the icing over the top and sides of the cake, using a large palette knife, leaving some slightly less iced spots for a 'naked' finish. Top with sprinkles and candles, if you like. Will keep in an airtight tin for three days.

Steps:

• Spray crock of a large slow cooker with cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, oil and vanilla until well combined. Whisk in the boiling water. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix well.
• Pour the cake batter into the prepared slow cooker.
• Set slow cooker to "Low". Cook until cake has no wet spots on top and has pulled away from the sides of the crock, about 3 hours. Turn off slow cooker and allow cake to rest for 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease bottoms and sides of 3 (8- or 9-inch) round pans with shortening. Line pan bottoms with waxed paper or cooking parchment paper; grease again and lightly flour. Make dark chocolate cake mix as directed on box using water, oil and eggs; set aside. Make white cake mix as directed on box using water, oil and egg whites.
• Place 1/4 cup of the chocolate cake batter into center of each pan. Do not spread batter. Place 1/4 cup white cake batter on top and in center of chocolate batter in each pan. Do not spread batter. Let batter in each pan spread on its own. Repeat placing remaining batters, 1/4 cup at a time, in center alternating between chocolate and white batter.
• Bake 45 to 55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Carefully remove waxed paper. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
• If necessary, using serrated knife, cut rounded top off cakes to make a level surface. Place 1 cake layer on cake plate, top side up. Spread frosting over top. Top with another cake layer, top side down; spread with frosting. Top with remaining cake layer, top side down. Reserve about 1/2 cup remaining frosting for garnish. Frost side and top of cake with remaining frosting. Use metal spatula to smooth frosting. Using #9 writing tip, pipe reserved 1/2 cup frosting around bottom of cake.
• Knead fondant to soften. Lightly sprinkle smooth surface and rolling pin with powdered sugar. Roll out fondant to 1/8-inch thickness. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut strips from fondant of various lengths and widths to make black stripes. Place strips on cake side and top forming striped pattern on cake, leaving about 1/2 inch of frosting between stripes. Store cake loosely covered.

Steps:

• Make the filling: In a large bowl, combine the whipped cream and marshmallow fluff. Beat with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form.
• Use a serrated knife to carefully remove the domed top from the cakes, leaving a flat, even surface. Save the scraps for later - you can eat them with leftover melted chocolate or crumbled over ice cream.
• Spread the filling over the bottom cake, leaving about ¾-inch (2 cm) border around the edge. Place the other cake upside down on top of the filling.
• Trim the cake into a hexagon. Transfer the cake to a wire rack set over a baking sheet.
• Make the coating: Fill a medium saucepan halfway with water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low. Combine the white chocolate chips and coconut oil in a medium heatproof bowl and set it over the pan (make sure the bottom of the bowl isn't touching the water). When the white chocolate and coconut oil begin to melt, mix together until smooth. Be careful, as the bowl will be very hot.
• Pour the melted white chocolate mixture over the cake. Use a knife to spread to the edges and down the sides. Once smooth, run a knife under the edges of the cake so it doesn't stick to the rack and place the cake in the refrigerator until the coating is set, 10-15 minutes.
• Transfer the melted dark chocolate chips to a piping bag or zip-top bag with a corner snipped off. Carefully pipe chocolate zebra stripes onto the cake. Return to the refrigerator to set for 10-15 minutes. Remove the cake once the stripes are dry.
• To serve, slowly and carefully slice with a serrated knife so the shell doesn't crack. Score the slices with a paring knife before cutting to make it easier, if needed.
• Enjoy!
