No not that...lol
So I've got some peanut butter ganache and chocolate ganache sitting on the counter, not sure what to do with them. Then I figure i will make a nice layer cake, using a new sponge cake recipe I found. Will post results when I finish it up! Here is the recipe:
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 teaspoons plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
DirectionsPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a small saucepan, warm the milk and 2 teaspoons of the butter together over medium-low heat. With an electric mixer fitted with a wire whip, beat the eggs and 1 cup of the sugar on medium-high speed in a large mixing bowl until the mixture is pale yellow, thick, and tripled in volume, about 8 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, beat in the warm milk mixture. Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt into a small mixing bowl. Add half the flour mixture to the egg mixture and blend thoroughly until smooth. Repeat with the other half. Add the vanilla and mix gently. Grease a 17 by 12-inch baking pan or jelly-roll pan with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Pour the cake batter into the pan, spreading it evenly. Bake until the cake springs back when touched, about 15 minutes. Cool for about 2 minutes, then gently flip it out onto a large sheet of parchment paper. Let cool completely.
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
I also made some Italian buttercream the other day, but I have inferior vanilla extract at the moment so it doesn't taste like much. Hopefully mixing it with the ganache will make a nice whipped filling for the cake. So for now here is this to look at, YUM!
