CHILEAN CAKE

CHILEAN PINEAPPLE CAKE

Steps:

• 1.- Grease two 9" cake pans and set aside. In a medium bowl sift the dry ingredients all together. In a small sauce pan pour the sugar and wet it with a little bit of water (it should look like wet sand), cook it until it reaches the consistency of a soft ball (240 degrees F) and set aside. Beat egg whites in separate bowl until they form stiff peaks and add the syrup you just made. Continue beating until the meringue is cool. Add the egg yolks one at a time, making sure they are well incorporated after every addition. Finally, add the dry ingredients softly. Do not over beat.
• 2.- Pour the batter into the prepared pans and bake it at 325ºF for 30 minutes. (Note- original recipe has you put batter in 1 9" spring form pan and then cut the cake in half to ice. I'm lazy, so I use two cake pans!) The timing can vary depending on your oven, but make sure that when you insert a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Let it cool completely and remove from cake pans.
• 3.- Preparing the heavy whipping cream. Beat the cream until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sugar. Set it in the fridge until you are ready to assemble the cake.
• 4.- Open and strain the pineapple can. Reserve the juice and mix it with the liquor of your preference. (I've used no alcohol before and think the recipe is fabulous with only the pineapple juice). Put the bottom layer of the cake on a cake stand and sprinkle it with the pineapple juice mixture until it is very moist (not mushy). Add an abundant layer of heavy whipping cream and evenly distribute pineapple chunks on top of it, add a thin layer of cream again. To wet the second cake layer, put it on top of a plate and wet one side. Turn it upside down on top of the cake and wet the other side. Repeat the process of the cream, pineapple chunks and cream.
• 5.- Moist the last layer of the cake and assemble it on top of the rest of the cake. Cover completely with heavy whipping cream (a very thin layer, this is just to get rid of the crumbs). Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
• 6.- Once the first layer is set, add the final coat of heavy whipping cream and proceed to decorate with the rest of pineapple chunks and toasted coconut flakes.

• Sprinkle the topping evenly over the top of the cake.

CHILEAN CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix Whites on High in large bowl for appx 7-10 minutes. (Must be fluffy and light texture).
• Add sugar, mix in well.
• Add 1 or 2 at a time egg yolk, mixing with a wire-whisk folding the yolk inches (color will all be a light yellow when you are finished).
• In a separate bowl, mix flower and baking powder with whisk or fork.
• Pour small amounts into a fine strainer over the large bowl with the folded eggs and sugar. After each session of small pours, fold flour with baking soda into the large bowl with wire-whisk.
• (Hint: the wire-whisk should look like a chicken drumstick each time you come up from the fold).
• Butter a rounded pan -a spring form works best (cake will rise almost half way up, so make sure pan is deep enough).
• Cook on 300 degrees for appx 40 minutes. Until cake is golden.
• While cake is cooking prepare fruit and cream (frosting).
• Fruit.
• Choose any fruit you like (peaches, raspberries, strawberries, pineapple work best).
• In small to medium saucepan put 1 cup of sugar and ½ cup of water. Cook on medium and continually stir until it starts to boil. Then add fruit; cook for several minutes for flavor to take place in liquid and in fruit.
• Put fruit in Fridge to cool a little before cake is finished.
• Cream (Frosting).
• 1 Big (I think it is 1 ltr) Heavy Whip Cream.
• ¾ cup of sugar.
• Mix on High until texture is much like a soft frosting, not liquid.
• You may add 1 can of manjar/dulce de leche for added flavor (can of condensed milk boiled in can for several hours-do not open can until it has been at least 2 ½ hours boiling)
• Finishing Cake.
• Once cake is cooked let it cool.
• Once cooled, cut in center (or twice to make 3 layers). Pour spoon sized amounts of juice from fruit all over on bottom layer. Add finished cream frosting, add fruit. Add on the next layer and Repeat on all layers.
• Top layer is normally decorated with fruit in patterns, and sides of cake covered with finished cream.
• Listo! The cake is ready.
