Cocoa Rum Chiffon Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare and bake cake mix according to package directions. Cool completely on a wire rack., In a large bowl, mix frosting, coconut and extracts. Tear cake into pieces. In batches, pulse cake in a food processor until crumbs form. Stir crumbs into frosting mixture. Shape into 1-in. balls; place on baking sheets. Insert sticks. Freeze at least 2 hours or refrigerate at least 3 hours until firm., Dip cake pops in melted candy coating, allowing excess to drip off. Roll in toasted coconut. Insert cake pops in a Styrofoam block; let stand until set.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in extract. In a small bowl, combine rum and milk. In a large bowl, whisk flour, pudding mix, cornstarch, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with rum mixture, beating well after each addition., Transfer to a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool 10 minutes. Remove from pan briefly to prevent sticking; replace in pan. Cool on wire rack., Meanwhile, for syrup, heat butter, water, sugar and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; add rum and extract., Using a small skewer, poke holes in cake. Slowly pour syrup over cake until it's all absorbed. Cover; let stand overnight.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease one 10 inch Bundt pan. Place chopped nuts in the bottom of the Bundt pan.
• With an electric mixer beat cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, oil, 1/2 cup of the water, and 1/2 cup of the rum on high speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan over the top of the chopped nuts.
• Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 50 to 60 minutes.
• To Make Rum Glaze: In a saucepan combine the butter or margarine, sugar, 1/4 cup of the rum, and 1/4 cup of the water. Bring mixture to a boil and cook for 2 minutes. Pour immediately over still warm cake.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with cooking spray.
• Stir pecans and coconut together. Spread evenly in the prepared Bundt® pan.
• Combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, rum, coconut milk, coconut oil, and coconut extract in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes, or until well incorporated, about 3 minutes.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Set on a wire rack until completely cooled, about 30 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges of pan to loosen cake. Invert carefully onto a serving plate.
• While cake is cooling make glaze. Combine butter, rum, sugar, brown sugar and water in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes.
• Using a skewer, poke holes throughout cake. Carefully spoon glaze over cake.

Steps:

• In medium bowl, gradually whisk boiling water into cocoa powder until smooth. Set aside to cool to room temperature, whisking occasionally.
• Adjust oven rack so that it is one-third up from bottom of oven. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Have ready cookie sheet and an un-greased tube pan.
• Into a seperate large bowl, sift cake flour, 1 cup of the sugar (reserve remainder), baking powder, and salt. Add COOLED cocoa mixture, rum, egg yolks, oil, and vanilla. With large, sturdy whisk or hand-held electric mixer, beat briefly just until smooth.
• In non-plastic large bowl, combine egg whites and cream of tartar. With clean beaters, beat at high speed until very foamy and white. Gradually add remaining 3/4 cup sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time. Continue beating until this meringue forms stiff peaks.
• With large spatula, gently fold about one-third of the meringue into the cocoa-yolk mixture. Turn this mixture back into the remaining meringue; gently fold together just until no white streaks show in the batter. Turn into tube pan and level batter. Place filled pan on baking sheet, then place into the preheated oven for 45 to 55 minutes.
• While cake bakes, ready a cooling rack. When done, the cake should be well-risen (possibly above the edge of the pan), and it will spring back when touched lightly on top with a fingertip.
• When done, remove cake from oven with oven mits. Turn the cake gently upside down so it rests on the cooling surface undisturbed. During this time, the cake may shrink slightly and pull away from the pan sides in places--OK.
• When cake is completely cooled, gently and carefully turn right side up. Carefully loosen cake from pan sides and tube, using a knife. Turn cake out of pan onto serving plate (it will be served upside down). If bottom of cake sticks to pan, hold serving plate and pan together, and bang GENTLY on table to loosen cake bottom (I have not had this trouble with this particular cake, though). Store airtight at room temperature for up to three days or freeze.
• You can sprinkle with powdered sugar sprinkled on top and when you slice, serve with a dolup of whipped cream and some chocolate shavings.
