Valerie Bertinelli's Sicilian Love Cake

If you love Nutella you will love this cake!

Some say, challenging more generally accepted ideas about the provenance, that tiramisu was invented in a casa chiusa (a house of ill repute) to give the working girls a pick-me-up, as the name (tira-mi-su) suggests. Whatever its inception, this one reverts to the original formulation - although in dinkier format. This is not because I am a huge fan of the cute — you know that — but because it means you have a tiramisu worth making for fewer people (you don't need a partyful), and in less time. By which I mean very much less time, since, unlike the big, trifle-style tiramisu, these tiramisini — think coffee-soaked Savoiardi sponge fingers, topped with the familiar, whipped Marsala-spiked mascarpone in small-portioned martini glasses — don't even need to sit overnight before being ready to eat. And please read the Additional Information section at the end of the recipe before proceeding. For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list.

Temperatures for the ingredients are important here. Not too warm to cook the eggs before baking, and not cold either. You can use either confectioner's sugar or regular sugar, use the same amount by weight but the volume will be different. If you use regular sugar, 150g will equal 3/4 cup. A few more notes on making the cake: When adding the milk, we found it easier and less messy to gently hand whip them in instead of using the stand mixer. It is a very liquidy batter, and for us it splattered everywhere even at the slowest speed. For folding in the whites, it is done with more of a gentle whisk/folding motion with the whisk since the batter is so runny. The whites will look a little curd like after mixing them in, just try to mix/fold them to the point where there is no big chunks. Because of the custard-like center, when fully baked, there will be a bit of a jiggle, but not a sloppy jiggle to the cake when gently shook. Same after it has cooled. That's about it. Have fun and every time we've made the magic custard cakes, going into the oven we don't think they will work correctly, and after baking they are magically perfect. Makes one 8"x8" Cake.

Instructions Preparation: Gather Your Ingredients: Cake mix Water Eggs Mayonnaise Betty Crocker’s chocolate Frosting Prepare Your Baking Equipment: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Get two 9-inch round baking pans. Generously grease both pans with either oil or butter to prevent sticking. Mixing the Batter: 3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the following: Cake mix Water Eggs Mayonnaise Start mixing the ingredients on a slow speed for about 30 seconds to ensure they're well combined. After that, increase your mixer's speed to high and continue mixing for 4 minutes until the batter is smooth. Baking the Cake: 6. Evenly distribute the cake batter between the two greased pans. Place the pans in your preheated oven. Bake for 30-32 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake around the 32-minute mark. If it comes out clean, your cakes are perfectly baked. Cooling and Frosting: 9. Once baked, remove the cakes from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the cakes from the pans and transfer them to cooling racks. Allow them to cool completely for about an hour. Take one cake and place it on a serving plate. Spread about 3/4 of your frosting evenly over the top. Place the second cake on top of the frosted one. Use the remaining 1/4 of the frosting to cover the top of the second cake. Final Touches: 14.

Tips to Bake the Best Portillos Chocolate Cake Recipe Use the eggs at room temperature. Remember not to overmix the cake batter. Overmixing the batter makes the cake dry and hard. Mix the batter until all the ingredients are mixed well. You can also add a bit of coffee to enhance the cake's rich chocolaty flavor and make it even more delicious. Don’t worry; your cake won’t get the taste of the coffee. Just 1 tsp of the espresso powder is enough to do the magic. Don’t open the cake during baking. Doing so alters the temperature inside the oven, and your cake may not be baked well.
