Dulce de Leche Cake
- 1 2-layer-sizewhite cake mix
- 3/4 cup butter, softened
- 5 eggs
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons finely shredded orange peel
- 1 recipe Dulce de Leche Cream
- 1 recipe Whipped Cream Frosting
- 1 recipe Caramelized Sugar Drizzle (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-inch springform pan*; set aside.
2. In a very large bowl, beat cake mix, butter, eggs, and the water with an electric mixer on low speed until combined. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes more (batter will be thick). Stir in orange peel. Spread batter in prepared pan. Bake about 40 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes (cake may sink slightly during cooling). Loosen cake from side of pan; remove side. Lift cake from pan bottom using a wide metal spatula. Cool cake completely on wire rack.
3. Use a long serrated knife cut the cake in half horizontally to make two layers. Place one layer, cut side up, on a serving platter. Slide pieces of waxed paper underneath the cake layer on all sides to catch drips. Spread 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the Dulce de Leche Cream on top of layer. Top with the second cake layer, cut side up. Press down lightly. Spread 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the Dulce de Leche Cream over cake. Cover and chill overnight. If necessary, cover and chill any remaining Dulce de Leche Cream.
4. Spread Whipped Cream Frosting over top and side of cake. Remove wax paper pieces from under the cake. Just before serving, if desired, drizzle with Caramelized Sugar Drizzle. Serve with any remaining Dulce de Leche Cream.
- If your springform pan does not have a tight fit, line the outside of the pan with foil. If you don't have a 10-inch springform pan, divide batter between two greased and floured 9-inch round baking pans. Bake according to timings on cake mix package.
- Look for dulce de leche in the ethnic section of your supermarket or at Mexican specialty markets.
- 1/3 cup sugar
1. In a large skillet cook sugar over medium-high heat until sugar starts to melt, shaking skillet occasionally. Do not stir. When sugar starts to melt, reduce heat to low and cook about 5 minutes or until all of the sugar is melted, stirring as needed with a wooden spoon. Remove from heat. Immediately drizzle sugar mixture over frosted cupcakes.
