Chocolat Chip Crumb Cake Recipes

CHOCOLATE CHIP CRUMB CAKE

Steps:

• For the crumbs: Put the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt in a mixing bowl and mix by hand. Pour in the butter and squeeze the crumbs tightly together, forming large or jumbo crumbs. Put the bowl in the refrigerator until the mixture is cold, 1 hour or overnight. (The crumbs can also be frozen for several weeks if wrapped airtight; defrost them for 15 to 20 minutes at room temperature before assembling the cake.)
• For the cake: Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Sift the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt together into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. On low speed, mix in the butter 1 tablespoon at a time. Mix in the almond paste. Add the eggs and yolks one at a time. Mix in the vanilla bean paste. Add the buttermilk, then cream the batter on medium-high speed until very light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Fold in the chocolate chips by hand.
• Scrape the batter into the buttered baking dish. Smooth the top, tap the dish on the countertop and top evenly with the crumbs. Bake 20 minutes, then rotate the cake and bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes longer. (After the first 20 minutes, I cover the pan with foil to keep the crumbs from getting too dark.)
• Remove the baking dish from the oven and set it on a cooling rack for 20 minutes. Eating this cake warm from the oven is one of the best memories I have. The smell of cinnamon and sugar drives me crazy. Eat it for breakfast, warmed up for a snack, or serve it with warm caramel sauce and ice cream for dessert.
• The cake will keep for 2 to 3 days if stored in an airtight container at room temperature.

CLASSIC CHOCOLATE CHIP CRUMB CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and line it with parchment.
• For the crumb topping: Combine the melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla, salt and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Stir in the all-purpose flour just until the mixture is crumbly (some dryer bits may remain--that's OK). Toss the mini chocolate chips with the crumb topping and set aside.
• For the cake: Combine the eggs, buttermilk, oil and vanilla in a liquid measuring cup and whisk to break up the eggs. Set aside.
• Combine the cake flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and whisk by hand or mix on low speed until combined, about 30 seconds.
• With the mixer running on low speed, add the cubed butter and mix until all of the butter is incorporated into the dry ingredients and the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. With the mixer still running on low speed, add the egg mixture and mix until moistened. Stop and scrape the bowl and paddle, then mix on medium-high speed for 30 seconds.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the mini chocolate chips over the top. Scatter the crumb topping mixture evenly over the cake batter, then scatter the remaining 1 tablespoon of the chips over top.
• Place the baking pan on a rimmed baking sheet to prevent over-browning. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out with a few moist crumbs, 43 to 46 minutes. An easy way to test crumb cake is to nudge some of the crumbs away with the toothpick then insert the toothpick into the cake below. Let cool in the pan until barely warm before slicing.

CREAM FILLED CHOCOLATE CHIP CRUMB CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour 2- 9 inch pans.
• 2. Make crumb mixture first. Mix ingredients together until crumbs form. This will be enough crumbs to cover the top of one of the layers.
• 3. For cake, cream together butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla and milk. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Add chocolate chips last and mix well into the batter. Pour into the greased and floured pans. Spread crumbs on top of only one layer. Bake for 30-40 minutes, test for done.
• 4. Once cake tests done, remove from oven and let cool completely. While cake is cooling, prepare the cream filling by combining all ingredients and mix until fluffy. Once the cake is completely cooled spread cream filling on the top of layer without crumbs.
• 5. Place crumb layer on top of cream layer. Top off the cake by sprinkling confectioners sugar over the crumbs.
