sweets: Double Chocolate Chip Cake with Penuche Frosting

Monday, September 2, 2013 Leave a Comment

 

Double Chocolate Chip Cake with Penuche Frosting | Mama Miss #chocolatecake #dessert #yum #birthdaycake

 

So, I’m not really a big cake maker.  Well yes, I suppose I am for birthdays and such, but I usually take an easier route ;)

With hubs, I usually get store bought – he LOVES those giant sheet cakes from Costco.  And with the kiddos I usually do cupcakes, well, except for their first birthday cakes of course.

So, delving into cake-land doesn’t happen all that much – it’s a shame really, I need like 8 more kids so I could make them all the time!  I enjoy making them, but it’s honestly a waste with just the four of us.  So, when the occasion arose to celebrate my recent nieces birthday’s in a double celebration for both of them – I jumped on the opportunity to make a cake!  Wahoo – cake time!!!  And this cake – OH MY GOODNESS – so delish!  I may have snuck a few endless spoonful’s of the frosting ;)

So, the cake, well ummm…Double Chocolate Chip Cake…I think it says it all right there!  And please excuse the “no pictures” of the actual cake part – it got a bit devoured before I could even whip out my camera!  So you’ll have to just trust me on that part :)





And, the frosting…mmmmmm the frosting.  It’s Penuche frosting.  It’s a fudge-like frosting made with brown sugar.  And it’s simply divine.

Double Chocolate Chip Cake with Penuche Frosting

Yields: 16 servings

The magnificent simplicity of this double chocolate chip cake does not even compare to the amazing and delectable result.

Ingredients

Cake
1 box (15.25 oz.) devil’s food cake mix (I used Pillsbury Moist Supreme)
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 package (3.9 oz.) chocolate instant pudding mix (I used Jell-O )
1 cup light sour cream
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup water
4 eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Frosting
2 cups powdered sugar
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 stick butter
1/4 cup 2% milk
Topping (optional)
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

    Cake
  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a Bundt pan with cooking spray, then lightly dust with flour and shake off excess; Set pan aside.
  2. Place 2 tablespoons of the cake mix and the chocolate chips in a small bowl; Stir together and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, place the remaining cake mix, chocolate pudding mix, sour cream, vegetable oil, water, eggs, and vanilla extract. Blend on low speed for 1 minute, until blended. Stop the mixer and scrap the sides. Blend for 2-3 more minutes on medium speed until thick and well blended.
  4. Add the cake mix and chocolate chip mixture to the batter until it is well blended.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, smoothing the top.
  6. Place pan in the oven, on a middle rack. Bake for approximately 45 to 50 minutes.
  7. When it is done, the cake will spring back when lightly pressed and will also just start to pull away from the sides of the pan.
  8. Remove cake from oven and let cool in pan, on a wire rack, for 15 minutes. Invert the cake to a serving platter and let cool for 20 more minutes.
  9. Prepare the frosting (see below).
  10. Spread warm frosting along the top and sides of the cake. If using, sprinkle cake with mini chocolate chips. Let cake stand for 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
  11. Frosting
  12. In a large mixing bowl sift the powdered sugar; Set aside.
  13. In a medium saucepan combine the brown sugar and butter; Place over medium heat, stirring constantly until well combined, about 2 minutes.
  14. Slowly add milk, stirring until combined; Bring mixture to a boil.
  15. Remove the pan from the heat and cool slightly.
  16. Pour the brown sugar mixture over the sifted powdered sugar.
  17. Using a mixer, beat mixture on low until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  18. Use frosting immediately, while it is still warm (if it hardens while you are frosting the cake, place it back in pan over low heat and stir until it is softened).

When your friend loves science just as much as you When your friend loves science just as much as you do.

These two... I couldn’t get them to walk away from our science table.

🐚🌊☀️When we went to the beach last week, V found this spiral thingee (official term 😆) way far back on the sand, near the dunes... it had obviously washed up a long time ago.  She brought it to us & my mom (PHD science professor-lol good to have one of those in your back pocket, huh?!) identified it as a Whelk Egg Casing. 

🔍🧐 🐚After Googling, based on the details of the casing, we determined it is an egg casing from a Knobbed Welk. 

🐚🔍🕵🏼‍♀️Whelk eggs are fertilized internally and laid in capsule packets. Strings of these connected egg capsules are usually one to three feet in length, comprised of up to 160 capsules, and each casing containing 40-100 eggs. These eggs are SUPER TINY - ALREADY FORMED - LITTLE BABY SHELLS (swipe to the last shot)!!! The mother whelk anchors one end of the string onto rocks, shells, or sand on the sea floor for safety. Apparently, only about one percent will hatch successfully. If they emerge successfully from the egg case, they can expect to live for about 10 to 15 years if they reach maturity.

Pretty cool huh?! #youlearnsomethingneweveryday

“When we focus on our gratitude, the tide of disappointment goes out and the tide of love rushes in.” - Kristin Armstrong

Print it out and hang it in your workspace, or the hallway, or the bedroom mirror as inspiration…. to reframe the ol’ noggin and focus on the gratitude and the things that are most important to us.

Loose Parts Tray 🔩⚙️🗝 We’ve had this Loose Parts Tray 🔩⚙️🗝

We’ve had this loose parts tray since my kids were wee little ones and it is still utilized to this day.  I just happened to catch a kiddo mid-way through mandala making today. 

🌀💠🔆You can theme it out however you want - nature parts, color parts... think beads, buttons, bits & bobs... take a stroll down the small parts aisle at the craft store or your local hardware store to find some inspiration. 

🖇📏🧮 I love how loose part trays allow open-ended creative play.  Kiddos can explore the different textures and shape concepts in the tray to create structures, free play, or even work on math!

💡What would you use your loose parts tray for?
