Chocolate Ganache Cake Makes One 8-Inch Cake Chocolate Ganache Cake Makes one 8-inch cake This foolproof recipe comes from Devon Fredericks and Susan Costner, who wrote the first Loaves and Fishes Cookbook in 1978. You can make this fabulous cake up to a week in advance. Wrap it tightly with plastic and refrigerate. Glaze it the day you serve it. We’ve made this cake into everything from bite-sized cupcakes to wedding cakes for 600 people. 1/4 pound unsalted butter at room temperature 1 cup sugar 4 extra large eggs at room temperature 1 16-ounce can Hershey’s chocolate syrup, 12 fl. oz. 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract 1 cup all-purpose flour For the ganache: 1/2 cup heavy cream 8 ounces good semisweet chocolate chips 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules Candied violets or edible gold leaf, for decoration (optional) Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Butter and flour an 8-inch round cake pan, then line the bottom with parchment paper. Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time. Mix in the chocolate syrup and vanilla. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Don’t over beat, or the cake will be tough. Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until just set in the middle. Don’t over bake! Let cool thoroughly in the pan. For the ganache, cook the heavy cream, chocolate chips and instant coffee in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until smooth and warm, stirring occasionally. Place the cake upside down on a wire rack and pour the glaze evenly ove the top, making sure to cover the entire cake and sides. You can tilt the rack to smooth the glaze. Decorate with candied violets, if desired, or gently crumble the gold leaf and place it on the center of the cake. Do not refrigerate..

  • Physical Activity for Chocolate Milk and Mixture Problems Chemistry
    Physical activity for Chocolate Milk and Mixture Problems Chemistry experiments and algebra problems sometimes ask students to create percent mixtures or to change a mixture into a stronger or weaker solution by adding more of an ingredient. Students often have difficulty isolating the key concepts involved in this sort of problem. This investigation introduces the notion of changing percent mixtures through a fun class day that ends with a yummy treat. You will need: • 1 gallon of low fat milk for each class + 1 quart of lactose-free milk (or check with your class for requirements and allergies) • 1 can of Hershey’ s chocolate syrup • small paper cups • at least two glass measuring cups or pitchers Set up a table in the back of your room. (For fun make it a different place then where you usually work) and invite your students to bring chairs or stand and surround your table. Activity begins: What percent chocolate do you like your chocolate milk? Show students your thick chocolate syrup in a glass measuring cup and your milk in a larger measuring cup. Encourage a discussion about the approximate percent of chocolate in their chocolate milk that they imagine that they prefer. Then suggest that we try to make a sample of one of their percent suggestions. A 50% chocolate milk solution is a great place to start. Hopefully someone in your class will have suggested it. Ask how you should create a 50% chocolate milk solution. Students are generally pretty good at encouraging you to use the same amounts of chocolate syrup and milk to get a 50% chocolate mixture.

  • How to Help…Your Child Take Medicine
    How to Help…Your Child Take Medicine Having a child take medicine by mouth is not always an easy task; in fact having a child take medicine by mouth and having the situation remain positive and encouraging can seem, at times, impossible. Below are some ideas to help encourage children to take their oral medication while providing them with a sense of control. o Always prepare your child in advance when they need to take medicine by mouth. o Children are sensitive to the environment and emotions of others. They will quickly sense if you are expecting a lack of cooperation. Remain positive and encouraging. o Use play to help your child practice by encouraging them to give “medicine” to a doll or stuffed animal with an empty syringe or medicine cup. o When possible, give choices. (i.e. what would they like it mixed with, what would they like to drink before/after, how would they like to take it…in a cup, in a syringe). o Encourage the child to hold onto a security item. o To partially numb the taste buds, have the child suck on a Popsicle right before giving the medication. o Mixing medicine with a flavoring such as Kool-aid powder, chocolate syrup or maple syrup may mask a strong taste. o Chalky liquids often taste better by mixing them with chocolate or vanilla ice cream (always in amounts the child is guaranteed to finish). o Have your child “chase” the medicine with a favorite beverage such as juice, soda or chocolate milk. White grape juice is great for masking a bitter taste.

  • The Earliest Published Chocolate Cake Recipe Was in 1847
    The Earliest Published Chocolate Cake Recipe Was In 1847 Do we need a birthday, wedding or anniversary to have chocolate cake? Not on January 27, because it’s National Chocolate Cake Day. In America, chocolate was consumed primarily as a beverage until the 1830s or 40s. Chocolate cakes, as we think of them today, mostly did not exist then. According to the Dover Post, the chocolate cake was born in 1765 when a doctor and a chocolate maker teamed up in an old mill. They ground up cocoa beans between huge millstones to make a thick syrup. The liquid was poured into molds shaped like cakes, which were meant to be transformed into a beverage. A popular Philadelphia cookbook author, Eliza Leslie, published the earliest chocolate cake recipe in 1847 in The Lady’s Receipt Book. Unlike chocolate cakes we know today, this recipe used chopped chocolate. Other cooks of the time such as Sarah Tyson Rorer and Maria Parloa all made contributions to the development of the chocolate cake and were prolific authors of cookbooks. The Duff Company of Pittsburgh, a molasses manufacturer, introduced Devil’s food chocolate cake mixes in the mid 1930s, but introduction was put on hold during World War II. Duncan Hines introduced a “Three Star Special” (because a white, yellow or chocolate cake could be made from the same mix) was introduced three years after cake mixes from General Mills. The first French word for chocolate mousse translates in English “chocolate mayonnaise” The “blood” that you see in infamous “shower scene” in Psycho is actually chocolate syrup.

  • Chocolate Syrup Recipe Cream Flavors
    CHOCOLATE SYRUP RECIPE Standard Recipe - 40 oz. Hershey’s Chocolate syrup plus 80 oz. simple syrup equals approximately one gallon. Better Recipe - 60 oz. Hershey's chocolate syrup plus 80 oz. simple syrup equals approximately one gallon. Best Recipe - 90 oz Hershey's chocolate syrup plus 30 oz. simple syrup equals approximately one gallon. Hershey's chocolate syrup is too bitter to use full strength as snow ball syrup and requires some simple syrup. One ounce of Southern Snow vanilla flavor concentrate and for Southern Snow imitation chocolate flavor concentrate can be added to any recipe however it is not necessary or recommended. CREAM FLAVORS A cream flavor's preparation starts with approximately one half gallon simple syrup. Next add four ounces of the flavor concentrate desired. While stirring, add two 13 fluid ounce cans of evaporated milk. Fill with additional simple syrup to prepare one gallon. The flavor concentrate and simple syrup is mixed before the evaporated milk is added to avoid direct contact of the milk and flavor concentrate. This direct contact sometimes complicates the blending process. A fifth bottle of a cream flavor requires 5 fluid ounces of evaporated milk and four fifths ounce (23 ml.) of flavor concentrate. Fill bottle with simple syrup. A quart bottle of a cream flavor requires 6% fluid ounces of evaporated milk and one ounce (28 ml.) of flavor concentrate. Fill bottle with simple syrup. The most popular cream flavors are Ice Cream, Nectar Cream and Pina Colada. Some snow ball outlets call the Ice Cream Old Gold or Sunset and Nectar Cream is called Pink Lady, Pink Squirrel or Pink Panther.
