Dulce De Leche Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Make the crepes: Combine the milk, eggs, flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, vanilla and salt in a blender and process until smooth. Refrigerate the batter 30 minutes.
• Lightly brush a 10-inch nonstick skillet with melted butter and place over medium heat. Add a scant 1/4 cup of batter and quickly swirl the pan to coat the bottom. Cook until set on top and golden on the bottom, about 30 seconds. Carefully lift the edge of the crepe with a rubber spatula, then flip with your fingers and cook 20 more seconds. Invert the crepe onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter to make 14 to 18 crepes, brushing the skillet with more butter as needed. Stack the finished crepes on the plate and let cool completely. (The crepes can be made up to 1 day ahead; let cool, then wrap the stack in plastic wrap and refrigerate.)
• Make the filling: Beat the butter in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium-high speed until light and fluffy. Add 2 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar in 2 batches, beating until smooth and fluffy. Add the dulce de leche and beat until combined. (The filling can be made up to 1 day ahead; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, then beat for a few minutes with a mixer before using.)
• Assemble the cake just before serving: Place 1 crepe on a platter or cake stand. Spread with a scant 1/4 cup of the filling, then top with another crepe. Repeat with the remaining filling and crepes, ending with a crepe on top.
• Beat the heavy cream and the remaining 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until stiff peaks form. Spread on top of the cake and drizzle with dulce de leche. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Prepare cake mix according to directions for a 13 x 9 baking pan, cool completely in pan on wire rack.
• Place sweetened condensed milk in a large, microwave safe bowl. Micro on med. for 4 minutes, stirring half way through.
• Reduce to med-low power, micro for 16 to 24 minutes, whisking every few minutes, until thick and light caramel color.
• Stir in caramel topping. Cool for 15 minutes.
• Spread evenly over cake, cool completely.
• Beat whipping cream in a large mixing bowl until soft peaks form. Add sugar and vanilla, beat until stiff peaks form.
• Spoon over cake, sprinkle with nuts.
• Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.

Steps:

• For the stovetop method: Remove the label from the can of sweetened condensed milk. Place 3 to 4 forks upside down on the bottom of a large 6- to 8-quart pot. Place the unopened can on top of the forks and cover with water by a few inches. (The forks help to prevent a vacuum between the bottom of the can and the pot.) Place the pot over high heat until it reaches a simmer, then lower the heat to medium-low or low to maintain a steady simmer for about 3 hours. Add more water to the pot if necessary to ensure that the can is submerged at all times. Let the can cool to room temperature in the water before removing. Open the can and scoop out the contents. The dulce de leche should be dark and caramelized.
• For the oven method: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place a shallow baking dish in a roasting pan. Pour the sweetened condensed milk into the baking dish and cover the dish with foil. Transfer the roasting pan to the oven and add enough hot water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish. Bake until the dulce de leche is dark and caramelized, 60 to 75 minutes, checking the water level occasionally and adding more if needed. Let cool, then whisk until smooth.
• Transfer the dulce de leche to an airtight container, put plastic wrap directly on the surface and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Prepare cake batter and bake as directed on package for 13x9-inch pan. Cool cake in pan 10 min. Pierce cake with large fork at 1/2-inch intervals.
• Mix 2 Tbsp. dulce de leche and water until blended; reserve for later use. Blend remaining dulce de leche with evaporated milk and sour cream in blender until smooth. Pour over cake, re-piercing cake if necessary until all milk mixture is absorbed. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Microwave reserved dulce de leche mixture on HIGH 10 sec.; stir. Cool. Frost cake with COOL WHIP; drizzle with reserved dulce de leche mixture.

Steps:

• Preheat the Oven to 375°F Grease and line 2 10'x14" jelly roll pans with baking parchment.
• Break the eggs into a large bowl and add the sugar. Whisk on a high speed until the mixture is pale a nd thick and falls off the whisk in long strands.
• Lightly sieve in the flour and baking powder, in small amounts, folding gently between each addition, making sure that the flour is completely mixed inches.
• Divide between the tins and bake for 15 minutes until golden and firm to the touch.
• Leave to stand for a couple of minutes.
• Sprinkle a tablespoon of caster sugar over each tea towel and invert the sponge onto it. Peel off the baking parchment. Trim the sides of the sponge and then roll up along the longer side with the tea towel. Leave on a wire rack to cool completely.
• When cool unroll the sponges. Cut them in half along the shorter side. Divide the dulce de leche between them and sprinkle over the coconut. Roll up one and then place it onto the other sponge and roll up again. Repeat with the rest of the sponge. Trim to neaten, cover in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 1-2 hours.
• When you are ready to assemble the cake, place the butter into a large bowl. Whisk on high until the butter is light and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating well each time. Finally beat in the vanilla and cream.
• Spoon the buttercream into a piping bag fitted with a large "grass" nozzle.
• Take the sponge out of the fridge and remove the plastic wrap. Place it on its end onto a serving plate.
• Crumb coat the sponge with a little of the buttercream - a thin layer all over.
• Roll out the white fondant and cut out a face using a template. Roll out the pink fondant and cut out 2 small circles.
• Melt the black candy in the microwave, pour them into the small piping bag and pipe on the llama's eyes and nose. Leave for few minutes to set in the fridge. Make two ears out of some more of the pink and white fondant and secure them onto cocktail sticks, leaving half of the stick poking out of the end so that you can attach them to the cake.
• Stick the face onto the cake near the top.
• Pipe "fur" all of the llama. Add the macaroon pompoms around the top of the head and base of the neck. Finally, stick on the ears.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spray a pound cake 9 "x 5" pan with nonstick spray.
• In a large bowl, with a mixer at low speed mix the oil, dulce de leche, and sugar.
• Add eggs one by one. Beat until mixture looks well-blended.
• Add vanilla and mix.
• In a separate bowl mix flour, baking powder and cinnamon. Fluff with a fork.
• Add dry ingredients to the wet and stir until a thick batter form.
• In another bowl beat cream cheese, egg, sugar and milk until it looks like a thick paste.
• Place 1/3 of the cake batter into the pan. Add on top half of the cream cheese mixture, then another third of the batter, the rest of the cream cheese mixture and finished with the cake batter.
• Cut through batters with knife several times for marble effect.
• Bake for 60-65 minutes until golden and when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Leave to cool completely before removing from pan, slice and serve.
