Boston Cream Pie Recipe (From Joyofbaking!.com)
Pastry Cream:
1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated white sugar
3 large egg yolks
1/8 cup (20 grams) all-purpose flour
Scant 3 tablespoons (20 grams) cornstarch
1 1/4 cups (300 ml) milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Sponge Cake:
5 large eggs
3/4 cup (150 grams) granulated white sugar, divided
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup (60 grams) plain cake flour (not self-rising)
1/4 cup (35 grams) all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
Chocolate Glaze:
4 ounces (120 grams) semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon unsalted butter
Pastry Cream: In a medium-sized stainless steel bowl, mix the sugar and egg yolks!. (Do not let this mixture sit too long or you will get pieces of egg forming!.) Sift the flour and cornstarch together and then add to the egg mixture, mixing until you get a smooth paste!. Set aside!.
Meanwhile in a small saucepan, bring the milk just to a boil over medium heat!. (Watch carefully and remove from heat just as the milk starts to foam up!.) Pour the milk slowly into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling!. (If you get a few pieces of egg (curdling) in the mixture, pour through a strainer!.)
Place the egg mixture into a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat until boiling, whisking constantly!. When it boils, continue to whisk constantly for another 30 - 60 seconds until it becomes thick!.
Remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla extract!. Pour into a clean bowl and immediately cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent a crust from forming!. Let the cream cool in the refrigerator for a few hours!.
Sponge Cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C) and place rack in center of oven!. Butter and line the bottoms of two - 8 inch (23 cm) round cake pans with parchment paper!.
While the eggs are still cold separate three of the eggs, placing the yolks in one large mixing bowl and the whites in another bowl!. To the yolks, add the two remaining eggs!. Cover the two bowls with plastic wrap and allow the eggs to come to room temperature before using (about 30 minutes)!.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk together the flours, baking powder, and salt!. Set aside!.
Place the milk and butter in a small saucepan, over low heat, and warm until the butter melts!. Remove from heat, cover, and keep warm!.
In your electric mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, (or with a hand mixer) beat the whole eggs and yolks and 6 tablespoons (75 grams) of the sugar on high speed for about five minutes, or until they are thick, fluffy and light colored (when you slowly raise the beaters the batter will fall back into the bowl in a slow ribbon)!. Beat in the vanilla extract!.
In another clean mixing bowl, with the whisk attachment, (or with a hand mixer) beat the egg whites and cream of tartar, at low speed, until foamy!. Increase the speed to medium-high and gradually add the remaining sugar, beating until soft, moist peaks form!. Gently fold a little of the whites into the batter to lighten it, and then add the rest of the whites folding just until incorporated!. Sift half of the flour mixture over the top of the batter and gently fold through with a rubber spatula or whisk!. Sift the remaining flour over the batter and fold in!. Do not over mix!.
Make a well on one side of the batter and pour the melted butter/milk mixture into the bowl!. Gently but thoroughly fold the butter mixture into the batter!. Do not over mix!.
Divide the batter between the two prepared pans, smoothing the tops, and bake for about 18-20 minutes or until light brown and springy to the touch!. (A toothpick inserted in the middle will come out clean!.) Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool!. Immediately run a spatula or sharp knife around the inside of the pans and then invert the cakes onto a wire rack!. Remove parchment paper and re-invert!. Cool completely!.
When the cakes have cooled and you are ready to assemble the Boston Cream Pie, make the Chocolate Glaze: Place the chopped chocolate in a small heatproof bowl!. Bring the cream and butter just to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat!. Immediately pour the boiling cream over the chocolate and allow to stand for a 3-5 minutes!. Gently stir until smooth!. Set aside for a few minutes until it has thickened to pouring consistency!.
To Assemble: Place one cake layer on your serving plate, bottom side facing up!. Spoon the pastry cream onto the cake, spreading to make an even layer!. Place the second cake layer (bottom side up) onto the filling!. Pour the glaze onto the center of the cake and carefully spread the glaze, with an offset spatula, to the edges of the cake, allowing the glaze to drip down the sides!. Let the cake sit until the glaze sets, about one hour!. Serve!. This cake is best eaten the same day it is made!. Cover and refWww@FoodAQ@Com
