Comments (3)Gee I don't why there's the A's there, they weren't there when I previewed, try one more time: Moist, dense, and rich, this nutmeg-scented teacake is topped w/a glaze of sticky toffee mixed w/toasted pecans. A hint of rum adds an elegant touch to this cake, which can be made ahead, frozen, then thawed when you need it. Eggnog-Toffee Teacake 1 ½ c. unsalted butter, soften 2 c. sugar ½ teas. Freshly grated nutmeg 1/8 teas. Eggnog flavor, optional (I didnÂt use) 1 Tbls. Rum, optional 1 teas. Salt 5 large eggs 3 ¾ cups AP flour 2 teas. Baking powder 1 ½ cups eggnog or half and half Topping: 1/3 cup unsalted butter 1/3 cup brown sugar 1/3 cup light corn syrup Pinch of salt 1 tbls. Rum ½ cup toasted chopped nuts (pecans, almonds, or walnuts) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 12 cup tube or Bundt pan, two 8 ½"x4 ½" loaf pans; or 6 small loaf pans (3 ½" x 7") To make cake: beat the butter, sugar, nutmeg, rum, & salt until thoroughly combined. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Whisk the flour & baking powder together, and add to the batter alternately with the eggnog or half and half, beating well after each addition. Pour the batter in the pan(s). Bake 30 to 35 minutes (for the small loaf pans), or 60 to 65 minutes for the large loaves or tube pan, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn it out onto a rack set atop parchment, to catch any drips. To make the topping: Melt the butter, then add the brown sugar, corn syrup, & salt, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a boil & continue to boil for 3 minutes, until it reaches 240 degrees (soft ball stage) on a candy or instant read thermometer. Add the flavor & nuts, & pour the toffee over the cake. Cool completely before serving....See MoreWhat went wrong with my Toffee?
Comments (10)I made a double batch yesterday and it came out great. I tried to insert a picture, but the link refuses to transfer from photobucket. Don't know why, it is a first for me. Here is my recipe which I have had forever. I have no idea where I got it originally. The notes are the ones I included for my 13 year old niece: Butter pecan toffee 3/4 cup unsalted butter 1/4 cup water 1 1/4 cup white sugar 1 tsp salt 1 cup chopped pecans 1 tsp. baking soda 1/2 cup chocolate chips Grease a cookie sheet, (preferably one that is not warped in the center). In a heavy saucepan, combine butter, water, salt and sugar. Stir until butter is melted and then ignore until mixture reaches 290 degrees on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat and immediately add the baking soda and 1/2 cup of the nuts (have them ready to go beforehand. You can even mix the baking soda and the 1/2 cup of nuts together first). Mix well and quickly spread the mixture in the pan. It will cool very quickly, so you have to work fast. Sprinkle chocolate chips on top. As the chips melt, spread the chocolate around to cover the entire surface. Then sprinkle the remaining nuts on top of the chocolate. Press down gently to make sure the nuts stick. Refrigerate until cold. Break into pieces. Some problems with crumbly toffee may have to do with stirring it during the cooking process. Really, best to ignore and cook over a med. heat until it reaches 290. On a side note, I lived in Fl for 3 years, and it always came out wrong. I think the humidity really did a number on it. Good luck. Jo...See MoreGinger's Toffee Pecan Brownies
Comments (2)I found them - wow, they sound terrific! Posted by Ginger_St_Thomas (My Page) on Fri, May 7, 04 at 8:58 I made these for my salespeople & picky as they are, these disappeared: TOFFEE PECAN BROWNIES Brownies: 4 oz unsweetened chocolate, chopped 1/2 cup unsalted butter 1 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar 1 TBL cinnamon 1/4 tsp salt 3 eggs 1 tsp vanilla 3/4 cup flour 1 cup chopped Heath bars Brown Sugar Topping: 1 cup packed light brown sugar 1/4 cup whipping cream 1 TBL unsalted butter 3/4 tsp vanilla 1/2 cup chopped pecans For the brownies, line an 8x8" baking pan with foil, extending foil over the sides. Combine the chocolate & butter in a saucepan & cook over low heat until blended, stirring constantly. Cool 5 minutes. Whisk in the brown sugar, cinnamon & salt. Add the eggs 1 at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla. Whisk for 2 minutes or until smooth. Add the flour, whisking just until blended. Stir in the chopped candy bars (I chilled the candy & chopped them in a processor.) Spoon into the prepared pan, smoothing the surface. Bake in a preheated 325° oven for 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached. Cool in the pan on a wire rack. For the topping, combine the brown sugar, whipping cream & butter in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, whisking constantly until smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in the vanilla. Let stand 10 minutes. Whisk until of spreading consistency. Stir in the pecans. Spread over the brownies. Let stand 1 hour or until set. Serve cold or at room temperature. Store, covered in the refrigerator.~~From Down by the Water....See Moreplllog
