HOMEMADE HO-HOS



Homemade Ho-Hos image

The cake is a classic French Biscuit au Beurre made with "Dutched" cocoa powder, drizzling in the clarified butter at the end for a unique delicious flavor. The filling used in the commercial version of this is probably made with whipped shortening rather than butter but I just can't bring myself to write a recipe with that ingredient as a filling. I did eat these for a year straight when I was about 12 and hung out at my friend Jenny Marshall's house. Her mom bought them but mine didn't. So I had to get my fill while playing at her house.

Time 3h25m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 eggs
2 yolks
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup clarified butter, warm
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1 cup butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 to 2 tablespoons heavy cream
12 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 ounces cocoa butter or 1/4 cup vegetable oil

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.

HO HO CAKE OR BARS



Ho Ho Cake or Bars image

This really does taste a lot like the real thing, and it is easy to make. I got this recipe from a family member, and while I've only made it myself once (my husband just requested it as his birthday cake), I've eaten it many times, and it is a crowd-pleaser! I have only had it as cake, but I imagine it would work better for larger crowds as bars. This tastes MUCH better if it is made the day before and allowed to chill overnight before eating.

Time 1h10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (18 1/4 ounce) package devil's food cake mix
1 1/4 cups water (or amount specified on the cake mix box)
1/2 cup vegetable oil (or amount specified on the cake mix box)
3 eggs (or amount specified on the cake mix box)
3/4 cup sugar
6 ounces evaporated milk
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
2/3 cup vegetable shortening
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 (15 ounce) can dark chocolate frosting (or your favorite homemade frosting recipe)

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.

CHOCOLATE HO HO CAKE



Chocolate Ho Ho Cake image

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (15.25 ounce) chocolate cake mix
Ingredients called for on cake mix
5 Tablespoons flour
1 cup half and half
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter (softened)
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
2 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Make cake according to directions on package (or use your favorite homemade chocolate cake recipe). Let cake cool completely.
  • In a medium saucepan, whisk flour into half and half over medium heat on stove top. Whisk constantly until very thick, similar to the consistency of thick pudding or custard- it will take a couple of minutes. Cool completely (place in refrigerator if you want to speed the cooling process). Stir in vanilla. In a mixing bowl, mix 1 cup softened butter and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add cooled flour/milk mixture to butter/sugar mixture and beat until light and fluffy (will take a couple of minutes). Spread on cooled cake.
  • Dump chocolate chips in a bowl. Heat heavy cream and pour hot cream over chocolate. Let sit for a minute; stir gently to melt. Cream butter and powdered sugar in another bowl and then stir the two mixtures together. If you want it to be thicker, add more powdered sugar. If you want it to be thinner, add more whipping cream. Spread on cake immediately because the frosting starts to set up and become grainy in appearance if you let it sit for long.
