Toffee Cake Recipes

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, blend butter, sugars and flour; set aside 1/2 cup. To the remaining butter mixture, add buttermilk, egg, baking soda and vanilla; mix well. Pour into a greased and floured 13x9-in. baking pan. Combine chopped candy and pecans with the reserved butter mixture; sprinkle over coffee cake. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt® pan.
• Mix cake mix, pudding mix, vegetable oil, sugar, water, and eggs together in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Fold in sour cream; batter will be very thick.
• Pour 1/2 of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle 1/2 of the toffee bits over the top, being careful to keep them away from the sides of the pan. Pour remaining batter over top, then sprinkle with remaining toffee bits.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes.
• Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate and let cool for about 25 more minutes.
• Sift powdered sugar over the cooled cake.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
• In a small bowl combine the dates and baking soda. Pour enough boiling water over the dates to just cover them.
• Cream 1/3 cup of butter with the white sugar until light. Beat in the eggs and mix well to combine.
• Add the flour and date mixture (including water) to the egg mixture and fold to combine. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a tester comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly and prepare the sauce.
• To Make Caramel Sauce: In a small saucepan combine the brown sugar, 1/3 cup butter, and evaporated milk. Cook over medium heat and bring to boil. Turn heat down and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Pour the sauce over individual servings of warm cake.

Steps:

• Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 325˚ F. Coat an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray. Combine the dates and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook until the dates soften and the mixture is jam-like, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the baking soda and let cool to room temperature.
• Whisk together the oat flour, almond flour, cornstarch, cinnamon, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and smooth, about 3 minutes. Add the brown sugar and beat until fully incorporated, about 4 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in the eggs until just combined, scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula as necessary.
• With a rubber spatula, fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in the cooled date mixture, ginger and vanilla. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and gently tap against the countertop to remove any air bubbles. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Transfer the pan to a rack to cool completely.
• Make the sauce: Combine the brown sugar, heavy cream, butter, vanilla and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook, stirring, until the butter is melted. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring, until the mixture is thick enough to coat a spoon, about 6 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Slice the cake into squares. Top each square with the sauce and whipped cream.

Steps:

• Bake cake as directed, in 2 9-inch layer pans. Cool completely, then slice cakes in half so you have 4 rounds.
• Pour Kahlúa into a glass measuring cup; sprinkle with gelatin.
• Let soak 5 minutes, then heat in microwave for 20 seconds, or until warm to the touch so gelatin will dissolve when stirred.
• Beat whipping cream; gradually add sugar until soft peaks form.
• Fold in the dissolved gelatin mixture.
• Lay cake rounds on counter. Evenly divide whipped cream on each cake, leaving sides bare.
• Sprinkle each layer with chopped bars.
• Stack cakes. Refrigerate at least 2 hours uncovered, to allow gelatin to set.
