Cream Cheese And Berry Cakes Recipes

BERRY CHANTILLY CAKE

Steps:

• Note: It's VERY important that your cold ingredients are at room temperature or slightly warmed. See video for tips. Heat oven to 335º F/168º C - 350º F/177º C. I tend to use lower setting to prevent my cakes from getting too dark on the outside before the inside is done baking.
• Place 4oz of the milk and oil in a separate bowl or cup and set aside
• Combine remaining milk, vanilla extract, almond extract and room temp eggs in a separate measuring cup and set aside
• Measure out dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) and place them into the stand mixer bowl.
• Attach the paddle to the mixer, and turn on the slowest speed (setting 1 on Kitchen Aid mixers). Slowly add chunks of your softened butter until it is all added. Let mix until batter resembles coarse sand.
• Add milk/oil mixture into the dry ingredients and mix on medium speed (speed 4 on my KitchenAid) and mix for 2 full minutes. Do not skip this step or your cake will not rise.
• Add in 1/3 of your milk/egg mixture. Repeat 2 more times until batter is just combined. Don't forget to scrape your bowl.
• I always start by baking for 25 minutes for 8" and smaller cakes and 30 minutes for 9" and larger cakes and then checking for doneness. If the cakes are still really jiggly, I add another 5 minutes. I check every 5 minutes after that until I'm close and then it's every 2 minutes. Cakes are done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few crumbs.
• Remove the cake pan from the oven and "tap" it lightly on the counter once to remove air from the cake and keep it from shrinking un-evenly.
• Place cakes on a cooling rack and press down the dome immediately with an oven mitt covered hand. After cakes have cooled for 10 minutes or the pans are cool enough to touch, flip the cakes over and remove from the pans onto the cooling racks to cool completely. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator.
• Once the cakes are chilled in the refrigerator (about an hour for this size, longer for larger cakes), tort, fill and crumb coat all at once. If you do not plan on crumb coating the same day, you can leave the wrapped cakes on the countertop. Chilling can dry out your cakes before they are iced, so avoid keeping them in the refrigerator longer than necessary. Cakes can be frozen in freezer bags for later use as well.
• Cream together the softened butter, cream cheese and mascarpone cheese together until smooth.
• Add in the powdered sugar and continue creaming until combined
• Whip the whipped cream to soft peaks. Add in the pudding mix to stabilize the whipped cream and whip until just combined. Add in the vanilla and almond extract. Peaks should be firm but not curdled. This happens quickly so watch your cream closely! Check out the stabilized whipped cream recipe to see other options to use besides instant pudding mix.
• Fold your cream cheese mixture and whipped cream together to make your frosting.
• Place the berries in a medium saucepan with 2.5 oz of sugar and bring to a simmer.
• Combine the cornstarch with the cold water to make a slurry. Pour the slurry into the bubbling berries.
• Cook a few minutes until the mixture is thick (1-2 minutes). Remove the berries from the heat and stir in the zest of one lemon and your lemon juice.
• Cool berry filling before using.

CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH MIXED BERRY AND CREAM CHEESE FILLING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
• You will need 2 cake pans, each 8 inches in diameter. Cut out 2 parchment paper circles that will fit inside the cake pans. Place the parchment papers inside and using some melted butter, butter each pan well.
• In the bowl of your mixer, add the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Using the paddle attachment mix everything until well combined on low speed. In a medium sized bowl, mix together the buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix. With the mixer still on low speed, slowly add the coffee and continue mixing until everything is well combined. Scrape the bottom of the bowl with a spatula and mix as needed. Pour the batter into the 2 prepared pans, equally.
• Bake the cake for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until baked enough. Do the toothpick test, insert a toothpick in the middle of the cake and if it comes out clean, it's done. Let the cake cool in the pans for about 30 minutes then turn them out onto a cooling rack or a cutting board and cool completely.
• Add the mixed berries to a medium size sauce pan. To it add the sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice. The mixed berries that were in the bag I used, were raspberries, strawberries and blueberries. Cook this over medium heat until the mixture thickens. Make sure you continue to stir, otherwise it might stick to the bottom. It will take between 5 to 10 minutes for the mixture to thicken until it's done.
• In a small sauce pan add the heavy cream, chocolate chips and instant coffee together and cook it over a double boiler over boiling water until smooth and warm. You will need to stir occasionally, this won't take long to make, under 5 minutes. Let cool completely, refrigerate if needed.
• To make the cream cheese and whipped cream topping, you'll need heavy cream, confectioner's sugar, vanilla extract and cream cheese. Start by placing the heavy cream in the bowl of your mixer and mix until the cream has thickened and it forms soft peaks. Add the remaining ingredients and mix until the cream cheese is fully incorporated in the whipped cream. The cream cheese should be at room temperature so that it mixes easier. The mixture should be thick enough so that it's spreadable.
• To assemble the cake, cut each cake into 3 pieces or 2 pieces, first cutting off the top part of the cake, so that the cake is even on the top. On a plate, add the first cake piece, then add a layer of fruit filling, another cake piece, cream cheese filling, cake piece, fruit filling, cake piece, cream cheese filling, cake.
• Refrigerate the cake for a couple hours so that it sets. After a couple hours cut out the uneven parts from sides of the cake with a sharp knife. Using a cake spatula, spread the ganache evenly over the top and side of the cake. Top with sliced strawberries.

In another large bowl using an electric hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugars on medium- high speed 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy. Stir in egg, then stir in sour cream and vanilla. Stir flour mixture gradually into butter mixture until batter is just combined.
• Spread two-thirds of batter into bottom of prepared pan. Pour and spread cream cheese filling over top. Sprinkle with berries. Top with dollops of remaining one-third batter; spread gently with a spatula as best as you can without crushing the berries (it's OK if the batter doesn't completely cover the berries and cream cheese).
• Make the streusel topping: In a small bowl, stir flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and butter until well combined and mixture looks like wet sand. Sprinkle evenly over top of cake.
• Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes until top of cake is a deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely in pan on a cooling rack. Run a paring knife around edge of cake before gently loosening from pan.

CREAM CHEESE-FILLED BLUEBERRY CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 355F (if you don't have that fine of control over your oven 350F is fine), spray an 8-inch round springform cake pan with cooking spray, line with a circle of parchment paper, and spray again. I think a 9-inch round cake pan (non-springform) may be used without risking overflow although I haven't tried ; set aside.
• To a large mixing bowl, add the flour, brown sugar, and whisk to combine.
• Add the eggs, butter, milk or cream, vanilla, and mix with a wooden spoon until smooth and combined. You can use a handheld electric mixer to beat the batter together, but if your butter is soft enough, it's not necessary.
• Turn batter out into prepared cake pan; set aside.
• Quickly stir together the cream cheese and granulated sugar with the same wooden spoon is fine (or handheld electric mixer) and evenly dollop "blobs" of the mixture over the surface of the batter, noting it will sink as the cake bakes.
• Evenly sprinkle the blueberries, noting they will sink as well during baking.
• Place the cake pan on top of a baking sheet (nice insurance against possible leaking pan or overflowing in a regular pan) and bake the cake for about 70 minutes, starting to check at about 50-55 minutes. To test for doneness, insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of the cake, trying to avoid visible cream cheese or blueberry patches. The skewer must come out clean. If there is batter on the toothpick or skewer, leave it in the oven a bit longer and bake until done.**
• Allow the cake to cool, in the pan, on a wire rack, for about 30 minutes before optionally dusting with confectioners' sugar and serving.
• Cake will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 1 week. I am comfortable storing baked goods with cream cheese baked into them airtight at room temp for about 3 days, however if you're not, store in the fridge.
