Provided by Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ chocolate fudge cake mix
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup rum or water
1 1/4 teaspoons instant espresso coffee granules
2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 to 3 teaspoons milk
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
6 tablespoons butter (do not use margarine)
1/3 cup whipping cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease and lightly flour two 8- or 9-inch round cake pans, or spray with baking spray with flour. Make and cool cakes as directed on box for 8- or 9-inch rounds. Refrigerate layers about 45 minutes for easier handling.
  • Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, stir granulated sugar, rum and coffee granules until coffee is dissolved. Heat to boiling, stirring occasionally; remove from heat. Cool completely.
  • In medium bowl, beat filling ingredients with electric mixer on low speed just until blended, adding enough milk for spreading consistency; set aside.
  • In 1-quart saucepan, heat ganache ingredients over low heat, stirring frequently, until chips are melted and mixture is smooth. Refrigerate about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
  • Cut each cake layer horizontally to make 2 layers. (To cut, mark side of cake with toothpicks and cut with long, thin knife.) Brush about 1 tablespoon of the rum mixture over cut side of each layer; let stand 1 minute to soak into cake. Fill each layer with about 2/3 cup filling. Spread ganache over side and top of torte. Store loosely covered in refrigerator.

HAZELNUT CHOCOLATE MOCHA TORTE



Hazelnut Chocolate Mocha Torte image

This cake is a base of hazelnut meringue topped by a mocha bavarian cream, covered by a thin layer of chocolate genoise and frosted with cocoa whipped cream. Can you say D E L I C I O U S !!! This is a time consuming dessert but so worth it. I love to entertain with this and hear the ohs and ahs. Plan on completing this 2 hours before serving to let the flavors mellow.

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 27

1 (1/4 ounce) envelope unflavored gelatin
1 1/4 cups milk
1 1/2 tablespoons instant coffee, preferably espresso
3 -4 tablespoons cognac or 3 -4 tablespoons brandy, to taste
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup heavy cream
3 ounces hazelnuts, ground
1/2 cup superfine sugar, plus
2 teaspoons superfine sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 egg whites
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa, preferably Dutch process
3 eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa, preferably Dutch process
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 -3 ounces semisweet chocolate, at room temperature
confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • MAKE THE BAVARIAN CREME: Lightly oil a round, shallow casserole or bowl approximately 10 inches in diameter.
  • Line it with a layer of plastic wrap large enough to overhang the edges.
  • In a small cup, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/4 cup of the milk; set aside.
  • In another small cup, stir the coffee into the cognac; set aside.
  • In a saucepan, scald the remaining 1 cup milk.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar and salt until light and fluffy.
  • Gradually beat in the scalded milk.
  • Return the mixture to the saucepan and stir constantly over moderate heat until thick enough to coat the back of the clean spoon. DO NOT ALLOW TO BOIL.
  • Transfer custard to a large bowl and whisk in the reserved gelatin and coffee mixtures, beating to thoroughly dissolve the gelatin.
  • Cool to room temperature, whisking vigorously every couple of minutes to prevent lumping.
  • When the custard is cool but not set, whip the cream until almost stiff.
  • Whisk a large spoonful of the cream into the custard, then gently fold in the remaining cream.
  • Carefully pour the bavarian cream into the prepared plastic lined bowl.
  • Refrigerate, covered until firm. (This may be made one day ahead.).
  • MAKE THE HAZELNUT JAPONAISE: Preheat the oven to 250.
  • Butter and flour a baking sheet, preferably nonstick, and trace a 10 inch circle onto it, using a cake pan or pot lid as a guide.
  • Blend together the hazelnuts, 1/2 cup of the superfine sugar and the cornstarch; set aside.
  • Beat the egg whites until foamy, then add the cream of tartar and continue beating until the whites form soft peaks.
  • Beating constantly, gradually add the remaining 2 T. superfine sugar and continue to beat until the meringue is stiff and glossy.
  • Lightly fold the hazelnut mixture into the meringue.
  • Spread the meringue onto the 10 inch circle on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, or until the meringue is set but still somewhat soft and just beginning to brown lightly.
  • Using a thin metal spatula, loosen the baked meringue layer from the baking sheet. ( the meringue may tear slightly, but it will not show.).
  • If it is too fragile to remove from the sheet, cool it on its baking sheet set on a wire rack, and then loosen from the sheet.
  • MEANWHILE, PREPARE THE CHOCOLATE GENOISE: Preheat a second oven, of you have one to 350; otherwise, when the meringue is done, raise the heat to 350.
  • Lightly butter a round, flat pan at least 12 inches in diameter.
  • Line the bottom of the pan with a circle of waxed paper or parchment.
  • Lightly butter and flour the paper and sides of the pan.
  • In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
  • Skim off the foam carefully.
  • Cool slightly.
  • Into a small bowl, sift the flour and cocoa together.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs and the granulated sugar until very light, foamy and almost tripled in volume.
  • Add vanilla, then lightly but rapidly fold the flour-cocoa mixture into the eggs.
  • When the ingredients are almost but not quite homogeneous, fold in the melted butter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 10 to 14 minutes, or until the cake springs back when toughed gently.
  • Remove from the oven and cool briefly in the pan.
  • Invert a pie plate with slanted sides onto a cooling rack, then cover the pie plate with a kitchen towel.
  • Lightly sprinkle the towel with confectioners sugar and invert the genoise onto the towel.
  • Gently peel off the paper and allow the cake to cool.
  • ASSEMBLE THE TORTE: Carefully transfer the japonaise to a serving platter.
  • Equally carefully, invert the bavarian creme over the japonaise.
  • Peel the plastic wrap off the bavarian and trim any ragged meringue edges off the japonaise.
  • Top the bavarian with the genoise, pressing it into a dome shape if necessary.
  • MAKE THE FROSTING: Whip the cream until thick but not stiff, then add the confectioners sugar, cocoa and vanilla.
  • Whip unti quite stiff.
  • Spread over the torte, flattening the top slightly.
  • TO DECORATE THE CAKE: Using a swivel-bladed peeler, scrape the chocolate into long shavings.
  • Lightly sprinkle the shavings over the torte and chill for a t least 2 hours.
  • At serving time, dust lightly with confetioners sugar sprinkled through a small sieve.
