Krapfen or Donut Recipe and Video

Posted on 20 January 2008 by Giulio

Ingredients Krapfen:

2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour
pinch of salt
5 oz. dried yeast
1 cup plus 2-1/4 teaspoons milk
3 egg yolks, reserve whites
7 tablespoons butter
3-1/2 tablespoons sugar
1-3/4 tablespoons rum
grated lemon peel or vanilla extract

Filling:
apricot or other jam
Confectioner’s sugar

Method Krapfen:
krapfen-custom.png Make a soft yeast dough using the above ingredients. Let rise.
Roll out dough on a lightly foured surface (about a 1/3 inch thick). Divide the rectangular dough in half and put one half aside. Mark rings on the remaining half with a wine glass (the circumference should be about 3-1/2 inches) and place a dollop of jam in the center of each ring. Trace the outline of each ring with a thin coating of egg white. Carefully place the reserved dough on top and lightly push down so the jam dollops are not spread, but apparent under the dough. Use the wine glass to cut com pletely through the dough, lightly pressing the dough edges to seal the top and bottom halves. Cover loosely with a towel and let rise again, about 10 minutes. This rising affects both shape and consistency.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a deep saucepan or deep-fryer. Place a few Berliners at a time gently in the heated oil. Cover, let cook for about 5 minutes and turn the Berliners once. Continue cooking until golden brown, about 10 minutes total depending on oil temperature.
Drain Berliners on paper towel. Sprinkle with cconfectioners’ sugar. The finished Berliner should look like a small cannon ball with a white waist line.

Coconut Cream Cake

Posted on 19 January 2008 by Giulio

Coconut cake

Ingredient for the Coconut cream Cake

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 (14 ounce) can coconut cream
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup flaked coconut

d.jpgInstructions for the Coconut cream Cake

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch pan.
  • In a large bowl, mix together cake mix, eggs, oil, water and coconut flavoring. Beat for 2 minutes and pour into 9×13 inch pan. Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
  • In a medium bowl, combine coconut cream with sweetened condensed milk and stir until smooth. When cake comes out of the oven, poke holes into it in even rows using a large fork or chopsticks. Pour milk mixture over, allowing it to soak into the cake. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
  • In a large bowl, whisk cream until soft peaks form. Add sugar and continue whipping until stiff. Spread over cooled cake. Sprinkle top with flaked coconut.
