Recipe By :The Grit Restaurant Cookbook, Jessica Greene & Ted Hafer

Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : The Grit Restaurant Cookbook

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

CAKE:

1 cup butter -- (2 sticks) at room temperature

2 cups sugar

4 eggs -- at room temperature

3 cups sifted cake flour

1 tablespoon double-acting baking powder

FILLING:

1 cup Grit Cream Cheese Icing

3 tablespoons orange juice concentrate

2 tablespoons brandy

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup whole milk -- at room temperature

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

ICING:

3 cups Grit Cream Cheese Icing

1 tablespoon orange juice concentrate

2 teaspoons orange juice concentrate

12 Pirouline cookies or vanilla wafers

 

To prepare cake: Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease 3 9-inch round cake pans, dust

with flour, and line bottom with parchment or wax paper.

 

In a large mixing bowl with electric mixer on medium speed, cream together

butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well

after each addition. Stir flour with baking powder and salt. Blend milk with

oil and vanilla extract.

 

Add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with milk mixture, beating after

each addition just until smooth. Divide batter evenly into prepared pans.

 

Bake 25 minutes or just until a clean knife or toothpick inserted in the center

of layers comes out clean. Remove from oven, cool 10 minutes on a wire rack.

Remove from pans and allow layers to cool completely before icing.

 

To prepare filling: Combine ingredients and stir to a loose custard-like

consistency. Frost between inside layers and, if you possess the manual

dexterity to do so, slice layers through the center, frost inside, and put back

together. Stack layers one atop the other with filling alternating.

NOTES : A basic appeal of many cakes at The Grit is the richness of our cream

cheese icing. It's made with top-notch cream cheese and applied generously.

Here is the simple icing that crowns such favorites as Grit Carrot Cake and Dark

Chocolate Cake with Grit Cream Cheese Icing (you know, the one with cookies

poking out of the top). It is also a luxurious staring point for several

flavorful variations to follow.
