Dump Cake

A dump cake makes you drool and drown into the reservoir of the delectable and soft munch. However, you may think that the name ‘dump cake’ does not suggest any ingredient that screams appetizing nor does it have a name that evokes interest. The name might just suggest how disloyal it is to serving your taste buds, by being subjected to the dumps! Well, to your sheer surprise and to my subservient relief, I have the opportunity to explain that the cake is contrary to what its name suggests. It is indeed a cake that your tongue generously testifies to.What is a Dump Cake

From kids beginning to learn the art of cake baking to a new bride trying to impress her mother in-law with her cake making prowess; the elementary dump cake recipes serve one and all. A dump cake is a successful concoction of fruits preferably canned, with a layer of cake mix accompanied with toppings to add that extra smack. Cherries and pineapples are amongst the preferred and the most demanded by ‘platter holders’. Nevertheless, you could also enjoy making and eating a dump cake that has other fruits as its base. Apples, pumpkin, peach are also among the top runners to make the cake all the more savory and mouth-watering.
Canned fruits are predominantly used in preparing cakes, however, you are free to experiment with fruits that you prefer. You could also resort to using fresh fruits as your base in the baking bowl.

Sponge Cake Recipes from Scratch

Sponge cakes have always been a popular dessert for many. Even though, you can buy this cake from stores, homemade ones are preferred to the former. If you think that preparing this cake at home is almost impossible, then, it is a misconception. This task is not that difficult, but, if you want perfect sponge cakes, make sure to follow the instructions strictly. The fluffy, airy texture that is the hallmark of this cake, can be achieved with a little practice. How to Make a Super Sponge Cake From Scratch
Sponge cake is said to be European in origin, and is the oldest non yeast cake. Traditional sponge cake recipes do not contain any form of fat (except those in eggs) or leavening agents. Nowadays, this cake comes in different variants, but its texture remains the same – fluffy and airy (just like sponge). Easy Sponge Cake RecipeIngredients
Cake flour – 2 cups
Eggs – 4 (large)
Sugar – 1 cup
Unsalted butter (softened) – 1 cup
Lemon zest – from half lemon
Vanilla extract – ½ teaspoon
Warm water (or milk) – 2 tablespoons
Lemon juice – 2 teaspoons
Baking powder – 2 teaspoons
Salt – one pinch
How to Prepare
Blend lemon zest and sugar in a food processor, till they become a fine powder. Now, add softened butter to a bowl, along with this lemon zest-sugar powder. Beat these ingredients for around five to seven minutes or till they get fluffy. The next step involves adding the eggs to this mixture, one by one. After adding each egg, beat the mixture well, so that they get mixed well with the butter. Once done, fold in the lemon juice, water and vanilla extract. Keep this mixture aside. Take another bowl and add the flour, baking powder and salt into it and combine them. You may sift this mixture two to three times, so that they mix well.
The next step is to add almost half of this flour mixture to the egg-butter-sugar batter. Blend them (on low) for a few minutes. Add the remaining mixture and blend for another ten minutes, on medium speed. Blend well till the batter gets a marbled texture with a glossy finish. This mixing step is very important as it is the perfect blending that creates air bubbles, which are responsible for the fluffy nature of the cake. Pour the batter into a greased mold and bake for around thirty minutes in the oven that is preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Once done, the sponge cake will be golden in color and you can notice that the edges start separating from the mold. You may serve it with or without icing.

Now, lower the speed of the beater and slowly add vanilla and lukewarm milk that is heated with butter. Mix well and keep aside. Now, combine the flour with baking powder, cocoa powder and salt and sift the mixture two to three times. The next step is to add the flour into the butter-sugar batter.

Pandan Chiffon Cake Recipe

Chiffon cakes have always been loved for their light and fluffy texture. Today, we have different versions of this moist cake and pandan chiffon cake is one among them. As the name rightly suggests, pandan leaf extract is one of the indispensable ingredients of this cake. Though, it is an Asian version of chiffon cake, it is truly delicious with the sweet fragrance of pandan leaves. How to Make a Pandan Chiffon Cake
Now you know that pandan leaves are essential for making this cake. You may either use freshly-squeezed pandan juice or pandan paste with artificial flavor. As in case of any other type of chiffon cake, this version too does not use butter. Instead of that, oil is used in pandan chiffon cake recipes. Even coconut milk is an ingredient for making this cake. Another ingredient is eggs that have to be the freshest. This is because fresh eggs whip well, as compared to older ones. Use caster sugar instead of regular sugar, for best results. So, get the right ingredients and start preparing your pandan chiffon cake. Ingredients
Cake flour – 100 gm
Eggs (large) – 5
Caster sugar – 80 gm (20 + 60)
Coconut milk – 100 ml
Olive oil – 3 tablespoons
Pandan juice – 2 tablespoons
Baking powder – 1 teaspoon
Cream of tartar – ½ teaspoon
Method of Preparation
❖ First of all, separate the egg whites and the yolks. Take the egg yolks in a large bowl and beat them well with 20 grams of caster sugar. As the sugar dissolves completely, add the coconut milk and pandan juice.
❖ You may use either fresh or frozen pandan leaves to squeeze out the required amount of juice. All you have to do is to cut the leaves (around ten) into small pieces and crush them in a blender with 1½ tablespoons of water. Now, transfer the crushed leaves into a small cloth bag (made of muslin or cheesecloth) and squeeze out the juice.
❖ Some people add 2-3 drops of pandan essence to the cake batter, so that the cake gets a light green color. This is because, cakes made with pandan juice are found to have a light yellow color. However, use of this essence is optional.
❖ Now, sift the cake flour and baking powder together and add them to the egg yolk mixture, along with olive oil. Combine well and keep aside.
❖ Take a clean bowl without any trace of water or oil in it. Now add the egg whites to this bowl and beat them (with an electric egg beater) till bubbles appear.
❖ Add cream of tartar and mix well with the egg whites, before adding one-third (20 gm) of the remaining caster sugar. Beat the mixture well and add the remaining caster sugar in two batches.
❖ You have to continue beating the egg white-sugar mixture, till it forms stiff peaks. Now, gently fold in the fluffy egg whites to the flour-egg yolk mixture. Make sure not to use force while combining them.
❖ Once they get combined, pour the cake batter into an eight inch round tube cake pan and bake the cake in the oven that is preheated to 340°F. Bake for around 30 to 40 minutes and your homemade pandan chiffon cake is ready.
So, now you have a fair idea about making pandan chiffon cake at home. You may come across other such recipes with slight variations. But, the basic method remains the same. You can prepare this cake without much difficulty, if you know the right methods and have the required ingredients. Apart from providing a sweet flavor to the cake, pandan juice is healthy too.
