Hohocake Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare and bake cake as directed on the package for a 9 x 13 inch pan. Cool completely.
• Combine flour and milk in saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, until thick. Cool completely. Cream 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup margarine, and shortening. Add cooled milk mixture, and beat well. Spread over cake. Refrigerate.
• In a small bowl, beat egg. Stir in vanilla, melted chocolate, hot water, confectioner's sugar, and 1/2 cup margarine. Pour over second layer. Refrigerate.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• To make the Cake: Butter the jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper; then butter the paper to assure release.
• Bring a saucepan of water to a simmer.
• In the bowl from a standing mixer, combine the eggs, yolks, sugar, vanilla in a bowl and whisk briefly. Set the bowl over the simmering water and stir until warm and the sugar looks dissolved. Attach the bowl to the standing mixer fitted with a whisk, and whip until light and fluffy, about 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, sift together the flour, cocoa, and baking powder 3 times.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer and, while folding the egg mixture, sift in the flour mixture, little by little, until incorporated. Drizzle in the clarified butter, while folding the batter.
• Immediately pour the batter into the prepared pans dividing equally and smooth the tops with a spatula. Bake until lightly browned and it starts to pull away from the edges of the pan, about 14 to 16 minutes.
• Remove the cakes from the oven and let sit in the pan for 1 minute. Run a knife along the edge to release the cake then flip it out onto parchment paper. Brush the paper (the one you lined the pan with) with water and let soak for 2 minutes. Peel it off the cake. Trim dry edges from the cake. Let cool covered with plastic wrap.
• To make the Filling: In the bowl of a standing mixer, combine the sugar and butter and mix on low speed until well blended; then increase speed to medium and beat for another 3 minutes. Add vanilla and cream and continue to beat on medium speed for 1 minute more, adding more cream for spreading consistency, if needed.
• Spread the sponge cakes with a thin layer of the filling, leaving a 1/4-inch space at the far edge. Roll the cake tightly on the long side until you have rolled a 1 1/2-inch thick log. Cut the log off from the remaining sheet of cake and place seam side-down. Repeat with remaining cake. Chill the logs for 30 minutes; then cut into 2 1/2-inch sections.
• To make the Glaze: Melt the 2 ingredients together in the top of a double boiler or a bowl set over barely simmering water, stirring occasionally. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat. One at a time, gently drop the cake rolls into the hot chocolate. Lift out with a fork and let excess chocolate drip back into the bowl. Place on the cookie sheet and let set at room temperature until the coating is firm, about 1 to 2 hours.

Steps:

• Place the cornmeal, baking powder, salt, egg and water into a bowl and stir to combine. Once mixed, stir in the corn. The mixture should be the consistency of pancake batter. Brush the lid or griddle with vegetable oil until shimmering. Pour enough batter onto the lid or griddle to form a 4 inch round, approximately 2 tablespoons. Depending on the size of your griddle or lid, you can cook more than 1 cake at a time. Cook until brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve immediately or transfer to a warm (200 degree F) oven until all of the cakes are done.
• Place a cast iron griddle over medium heat or prepare charcoal for cooking outdoors by heating coals in a chimney starter until hot and ashy.
• Cooktop: Place a cast iron skillet or griddle over medium heat. Brush with vegetable oil and heat until shimmering. Pour enough batter onto the skillet or griddle to form a 4-inch round, approximately 2 tablespoons. Depending on the size of your griddle or skillet, you can cook more than 1 cake at a time. Cook until brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve immediately or transfer to a warm (200 degrees F) oven until all of the cakes are done.
• Outdoor coals: Using a Dutch oven with feet, turn the oven upside down. Place 22 hot, ashy coals on the bottom of the inverted oven. Lay the lid upside down on top of the Dutch oven feet and over the coals and allow to heat for 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Grease a 10 1/2-by-14-by-2-inch pan and set aside.
• Prepare cake mix as instructed on the box using the egg and oil.
• Spread into reserved pan and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 20 minutes.
• Remove from oven and place pan on a wire rack and let cake cool completely in the pan.
• Prepare filling: Place flour in a small saucepan.
• Slowly add milk, stirring until mixture is smooth.
• Place pan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick, about 10 minutes.
• Place flour-mixture in a bowl, cover surface with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cool, about 2 hours.
• In a bowl of an electric mixer, combine the cooled flour mixture, margarine, vegetable shortening and sugar.
• Beat on high speed until light and fluffy, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Spread evenly over top of cake and chill until filling is somewhat firm, about 2 hours.
• Prepare icing: In a large bowl of an electric mixer, combine melted margarine, egg, melted chocolate, 2 1/2 tablespoons hot water and vanilla.
• Beat on medium speed until blended.
• Slowly add confectioners' sugar, beating until smooth.
• Smooth icing over cake, taking care not to disturb the filling.
• Chill until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Prepare cake as directed on package for two round pans.
• When cool, "slice" through cakes to make 4 "thin" cakes.
• Beat sugar, shortening, vanilla, milk, salt and water for 7 minutes.
• Add powdered sugar and beat for 5 minutes longer.
• Lay one layer of cake on plate.
• Spread Cream filling on top only, do not go all the way to the edge.
• Lay another layer of cake on this.
• Spread cream filling on this too.
• Again layer and filling until you have all four layers on here.
• Ice the whole cake with the chocolate icing.

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the thawed corn, egg, milk, and vegetable oil. Pour into the bowl with the dry ingredients and combine. Allow to rest for 5 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• In a cast iron pan on medium-high heat, add enough vegetable oil to fill the pan about 1/2-inch deep. When the oil begins to swirl, add the batter in batches to the pan using a small ice cream scoop or 1/4 cup measure to make each hoecake. Gently spread into a circle, if needed. Flip the hoecakes when the air pockets begin to pop on the surface of the batter and a peek underneath the cake reveals a golden rim and surface, about 2 minutes.
• Once the second side is golden brown, transfer the hoecakes to a baking sheet in a warm oven and continue making the rest. Serve with maple syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (or temperature specified on cake mix box); grease and flour a 9 x 13 baking pan (for cake) OR a large jelly roll pan (for bars).
• Make cake as directed on the cake mix package using the mix, water, oil, and eggs.
• Bake 30-40 minutes for the cake or as directed on the box, OR 12-15 minutes to make the bars in a jelly roll pan.
• Cool completely.
• Beat the filling ingredients until light and fluffy; this will take about 10-15 minutes.
• (Don't be alarmed if it looks kind of curdled and scary at first since it takes time for it to pull together!).
• Spread the filling over the cooled cake.
• Warm the frosting in the microwave until it is a pourable consistency (do this slowly by only cooking for 15-20 seconds at a time, and stirring).
• Pour the frosting evenly over the filling.
• Refrigerate until thoroughly cool and firm (overnight is highly recommended).
• Store cake in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• For filling, in a small saucepan, combine flour and milk until smooth; stir in 1/3 cup sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. , Transfer to a large bowl; cool. Beat in the shortening, butter, vanilla, salt and remaining sugar until smooth. Spread between cake layers., For glaze, melt butter and cocoa in a small saucepan. Whisk in confectioners' sugar and enough milk to achieve a drizzling consistency. Drizzle over top of cake, allowing some to drape down the sides.

Steps:

• In a medium size bowl, stir together the cornmeal, baking powder, salt, sugar and green onion.
• Add the egg, buttermilk and melted butter; whisking to combine.
• Preheat a griddle until drops of water sizzles when sprinkled on the griddle; lightly oil with canola oil.
• Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto preheated griddle and allow to form into 2 inch circles.
• Cook the hoecakes until bubbles form, turn and continue cooking until cooked through.
• Place on a warmed serving platter; serve hot.

Steps:

• Stir together cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda in a medium bowl. Add buttermilk, eggs, and 4 tablespoons oil; whisk until smooth.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add remaining tablespoon oil; swirl to coat, and heat until a drop of batter sizzles upon contact. Working in batches, pour 1/3 cup batter per cake into skillet. Cook, turning once, until golden and cooked through, about 4 minutes.
• Repeat with remaining batter (add more oil if needed, and reduce heat if sides brown too quickly). Serve immediately, topped with butter and honey.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a well-seasoned cast iron skillet with the shortening, and place it in the oven as it heats.
• Whisk together the flour and milk in a bowl, to make a thick but still runny batter.
• Remove the hot greased skillet from the preheated oven, and quickly sprinkle a pinch of garlic salt over the bottom of the skillet. Immediately pour in the batter, and sprinkle the top with a pinch of garlic salt.
• Return the skillet to the oven, and bake in the preheated oven until the cake has risen and the top is golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Cake:.
• Mix first 5 ingrediants, add remaining ingredients and beat well. Pour into greased Jelly Roll Pan (I usually just use a 9/13 glass cake pan). Bake at 350 deg for 15-20 minutes.
• Filling:.
• Beat together 1 cup powdered sugar and all remaining ingredients for 5min. Add 1-3 cups more powdered sugar (a little at a time until you get the consistency you want) and beat well. Spread onto cooled cake layer. Put in freezer while you make the frosting.
• Frosting:.
• Boil together sugar, margarine, and milk for 1 1/2 minutes. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips and vanilla. Beat until cooled and slightly thickened. Spread over filling layer and let stand until frosting cools and sets.
• Best if kept chilled.
