good afternoon and welcome to the good
0:08
plates kitchen today we're going to make
0:12
an Almond Joy
0:15
cake and we have some ingredients here
0:17
this is
0:20
[Music]
0:21
cocoa
0:23
coconut chocolate dipped
0:26
almonds we're going to
0:28
make our frosting with jet puffed
0:32
marshmallow vanilla for the
0:35
cake
0:39
and we're going to use melted butter in
0:42
the cake because it's a chocolate cake
0:45
it's going to have coffee in it and of
0:47
course we have flour
0:51
sugar and milk and we're going to make
0:55
that soon so stay tuned this is usually
0:59
an oil-based cake however this time
1:02
we're going to use melted butter and I
1:05
have 1/2 cup of unsalted butter that I'm
1:09
going to melt the ratio in an oil cake
1:13
of oil to butter is one to one so this
1:17
recipe usually calls for a half a cup of
1:21
vegetable oil we're going to use a half
1:22
a cup of butter it's going to do two
1:25
things it's going to make it a lot
1:27
richer and the other thing it's going to
1:29
be a lot tastier
1:32
okay I'm melting this butter on the
1:35
stove top instead of in the microwave
1:37
because I would like to have a little
1:40
tiny bit of that brown butter flavor
1:43
going into my cake in a microwave
1:46
because it doesn't reach a hot enough
1:48
temperature will not do
1:51
that the but the butter is melted as you
1:54
can see okay and it's foaming which
1:58
means that it's getting a little bit of
2:00
that brown flavor on the bottom this
2:03
butter has to come to room
2:05
temperature before it can be used
2:07
because if I try to put it into the cake
2:09
now with eggs I'll have scrambled eggs
2:13
we don't want scrambled eggs in our cake
2:15
we want melted butter
2:19
okay okay while we are waiting for the
2:22
butter to get cool enough to continue
2:25
with our cake we're going to prepare our
2:28
pans this is a 9in cake pan I have
2:32
already sprayed it with some um cake
2:35
baker Joy spray now what really want you
2:38
to notice is this this is a cake strip
2:42
and what you do with this is you run it
2:46
underwater and get it wet and then put
2:50
it around your cake like around the pan
2:53
like that and what it does is it
2:57
prevents your cake from doming
3:00
because that just that little
3:03
bit of water that's in here cools it
3:06
enough so that the pan the outside parts
3:10
of the pan stay cool enough so that the
3:12
cake won't Dome and this is a it's
3:15
really wonderful it means you're not
3:17
going to have to cut the top of your
3:19
cake off not you're going to have even
3:21
layers these cake strips are fantastic
3:24
highly
3:26
recommended okay the dry ingredients are
3:29
ready
3:30
this is
3:31
flour I know it doesn't look like flour
3:34
this is actually flour baking soda
3:37
baking powder salt and cocoa and I used
3:41
a sifter to sift everything together the
3:44
reason I used a sifter is because we
3:47
want to have a lot of lift and using a
3:49
sifter rather than a whisk will give you
3:52
more lift it adds more air so I'm going
3:55
to add
3:56
[Music]
3:58
this
4:00
to my
4:02
mixer see you could see the
4:05
[Music]
4:08
flow I'll go it one time
4:13
and put this on
4:20
stir okay so now it's stirred and it's
4:24
got extra air in
4:25
it this is a good thing now it's time to
4:29
add the
4:30
[Music]
4:37
eggs two eggs
4:40
one
4:42
two and the milk this is a cup of
4:52
milk since this is going to be an inside
4:56
out almond Jo cake we really want to
4:58
give it some almond flavor
5:00
so almond goes in here almond this is
5:04
from penies the
5:06
best and of course
5:10
vanilla add
5:14
[Music]
5:18
that
5:20
[Music]
5:25
and next thing we're going to add is
5:28
normally this would be where you would
5:29
add the oil but this time we're adding
5:32
butter so we're going to add the
5:34
[Music]
5:37
butter and then beat this for 2 minutes
5:41
so we're going to put it on put my
5:42
machine on four for
5:45
beat actually two put on
5:48
two okay we'll be back in 2 minutes okay
5:52
now that it's been beating for 2
5:54
minutes you have to
5:57
add boiling hot water
6:00
okay this it's a chemical reaction you
6:03
can't use cold water you have to use
6:05
boiling hot
6:09
water we it all
6:11
in it's still steaming okay now put your
6:17
machine on stir because this is it makes
6:19
it um it's very thin at this point so
6:22
put it on stir so you don't make a
6:25
mess there we go if you don't have
6:33
one of these beers with edges I highly
6:36
recommend getting them you still have to
6:39
scrape a little but not nearly as much
6:41
they're really wonderful there'll be a
6:44
link in the
6:46
description okay okay I have put the
6:49
batter in the pans you see they both
6:52
have their cake strips on them and
6:54
they're going to go into a
6:56
350° oven
7:00
and they will be
7:01
baked
7:03
for 30 minutes and we're going to check
7:06
at 25 just to make sure they're done
7:09
when a toothpick comes out clean okay
7:13
see in 30
7:15
minutes okay the cakes are out of the
7:18
oven and I want you to see that because
7:20
we used the cake strips look how nice
7:25
and flat these cakes are I mean they are
7:28
flat there is no boing and that's
7:30
exactly how we want a
7:33
cake okay the cake is out of the oven
7:35
and it is cooled and it's now time to
7:38
make the frosting which we're going to
7:40

7:43
marshmallow cream marshmallow cream a
7:47
panilla extract powdered sugar a little
7:50
bit of almond extract and of course
