Devils Delight Cake Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Whisk the egg, buttermilk, coffee, oil and vanilla; add to dry ingredients until combined. , Coat a 9-in. round baking pan with cooking spray and dust with flour. Add batter. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; remove from pan to a wire rack. Cool completely., For filling, combine ricotta, sugar and orange juice concentrate; fold in cherries and chips. Cut cake in half vertically. Spread filling over one half; top with remaining half., In a bowl, beat cream until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar, cocoa and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Frost top and sides of cake. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• To make the frosting: Put the chocolate in a large heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, bring the cream to a boil. Pour the cream over the chocolate, move the bowl gently to let the cream settle. Set the mixture aside until softened, about 4 minutes. Whisk until smooth. Cover the surface of the frosting with plastic wrap. Set aside and let set up at room temperature, about 2 hours.
• To make the cake: Set a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with a circle of parchment or wax paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter at medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Increase the speed to medium-high and slowly add the sugar. Continue beating until light and smooth, about 4 minutes. Turn the mixer off and scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the cocoa powder and vanilla and beat at medium speed for 1 minute more. (Stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl again, if needed.) With the mixer running at medium-low speed, add the eggs, one at a time, beating for 1 minute between each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• Combine the water and milk in a saucepan and bring just to a boil. Remove from the heat.
• With the mixer at low speed, add the flour mixture, about a 1/4 cup at a time. Carefully pour the hot liquid into the batter. Remove the bowl from the mixer and, using a large rubber spatula, finish combining the batter until smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Lightly drop each pan onto the counter to settle the batter.
• Set the pans on the middle rack in the oven. Bake until the cakes begin to pull away from the sides of the pans and the center springs back when touched lightly, about 30 to 35 minutes.
• Cool the cakes, in the pans, on a rack for 10 minutes. Turn the cake layers out of the pans and cool on the rack. (If not assembling the cake right away, wrap the layers in plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 1 day, or freeze for up to 2 months.)
• Assemble the Devil's Food Cake. Place 1 cake layer upside-down on a cake stand or flat plate. Scoop about 1/3 of the icing onto the center of the layer. Using a large, offset spatula, spread the icing evenly over the layer to the edges. Place the other cake layer, rounded-side up, on top. Evenly spread half of the remaining icing over the top, spreading any excess icing down the sides. Spread the remaining icing around the sides of the cake. Use the tip of the offset spatula to make a swirling pattern in the icing. Serve. Store under a cake dome or loosely wrapped with plastic, at room temperature, for up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Prepare strawberries a few hours ahead if possible. Cut each strawberry into quarters for small slices. Place in a bowl and pour sugar on top. Gently stir well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Prepare pudding as directed on package. Let chill in refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
• Bake cake mix as instructed on box. Let cool. When ready, make sure the cake fits into your dish of choice. We had to cut some of the outside edge off in order for it to fit into our narrow bowl.
• Start layer with one cake round at the bottom. Poke large holes throughout the cake (I used the end of a wooden spoon).
• Pour half of the pudding mixture over the cake. Add 1/3 the strawberries atop the pudding. Then spread a thick layer of cool whip over the strawberries. Repeat with the second cake round, pudding, 1/3 strawberries and cool whip. Top with remaining strawberries. Tah-dah!
• It's best to cover and refrigerate it for a bit until ready to serve. Great to make the night before. When serving, I would just slice a piece, and use a pie server to pull out a piece. It may be a little messy, but so tasty.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F Grease and flour 13x9 pan.
• In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, oil, and water. Beat on low just until blended. Increase speed to medium; beat 2 minutes.
• Stir in marshmallows and chocolate chips.
• Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until toothpick comes out clean: 35 minutes for 9x13, 45 minutes for Bundt pan, 15 minutes for cupcakes, 30 minutes for 2x9" round pans.
• Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan.
• In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for frosting. Beat to spreading consistency.
• Cool completely and frost with Easy Cocoa Frosting.

Steps:

• Prepare cake as is on box. Bake at 350 degrees F for the time that's mentioned on the box.
• When done, pour the cream of coconut on the cake evenly, then pour the can of Eagle brand milk over the cream of coconut, then layer with Bakers coconut.
• Let set in refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour one 9x13 inch pan or two 9 inch round pans.
• In a small pan melt the butter or margarine with the unsweetened chocolate. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Cream together the sugar and the eggs until light in color. Add the chocolate mixture to the eggs and temper mixture by beating well (so you don't end up with scrambled eggs!) Add 1 cup boiled water (still warm) and blend well. Mixture will be very liquid.
• Mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Add this mixture to the chocolate mixture and blend well.
• Mix together the vinegar and the milk and stir into the chocolate batter. Pour into prepared pan(s).
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cake divides well for filling with mousse, or ganache, or black forest fillings. The best clue to this cake being nearly done is that you will start to smell the aroma of chocolate filling your house!
