Cranberry Banana Cheesecake

Thu, 08 Nov 2001 17:48:19 -0500

Brownie crust, peanut butter and cream cheese filling, this is really a fairy-tale cheesecake! -- posted by Mirj

Chunky Apple Spice Cake With Vanilla Butter Sauce

Wed, 12 Dec 2001 10:15:21 -0500

This cake is good, I mean REALLY GOOD. If you use real vanilla extract the flavor is amazing. I have had a friend just pick at an entire meal because she knew I was serving this for dessert. -- posted by Mirj

1 Pan Fudge Cake

Fri, 31 May 2002 18:08:04 -0400

This is my favorite chocolate cake. No fuss, no mess and very moist. Back in the early days when it was paycheck to paycheck, this simple dessert made it into his lunchbox many a day because it was cheap and simple. No eggs, no milk. -- posted by Mysterygirl

Black Forest Pudding Cake

Sun, 23 Jun 2002 19:00:58 -0400

A friend of mine got this from the back of a Hershey's Cocoa box, but the recipe is so old she's copied it over many times. It's really good, really easy, and very impressive! -- posted by Mirj

Different Jewish Apple Cake

Tue, 09 Jul 2002 20:38:03 -0400

This recipe is a bit different because the apples are grated instead of chopped or sliced and there is pineapple juice instead of the traditional orange juice. For a richer cake, I use butter instead of oil, but it tastes wonderful both ways. Enjoy! -- posted by Karen=^..^=

Coffee-Toffee Cake from Mars

Fri, 09 Aug 2002 00:36:58 -0400

The minute I saw this recipe in a local cooking magazine I knew that I had to make it. I haven't made it yet, but I will for this weekend. It looks so scrumptious and amazing, I can hardly wait. You need some patience to freeze all the layers, but I am sure that it will be really worth it. Prep time includes freeze time. -- posted by Mirj

Italian Carrot and Almond Cake with Oranges in Caramel

Tue, 03 Sep 2002 17:43:55 -0400

I saw this cake made on one of my favorite cooking shows, the BBC's Friends for Dinner. It's by Chef Antony Worrall Thompson, a great cook with a fantastic sense of humor. I just had to get the recipe! I haven't made this cake yet, but plan to do so for the High Holidays coming up. -- posted by Mirj

Almond Coffee Cake w/ Amaretto Glaze

Tue, 10 Sep 2002 20:10:46 -0400

This is nice almond-spiked coffee cake that gets better the longer it sits. Make at least one day before serving. -- posted by s'kat

Pumpkin-Walnut Roulade with Spiked Cream

Wed, 02 Oct 2002 21:57:13 -0400

A little bit of work, but worth it. You can bake and fill the roulade up to 2 days ahead, covered tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerated. Garnish with the spiked cream just before serving. -- posted by Mirj

Low Fat Pumpkin Roll

Tue, 17 Dec 2002 20:10:39 -0500

This is delicious for a low-fat, guilt free dessert. If you do Weight watchers, it is 3 pts per serving! -- posted by KerrBearr

Low Fat Pumpkin Roll #2

Tue, 17 Dec 2002 20:10:46 -0500

This is another great recipe, but because it uses 5 eggs, it is not low fat as my other posted recipe (Low Fat Pumpkin Roll). What you can do is make the other loaf, and use the icing from this one also. Either way, it's delish! -- posted by KerrBearr

All-Chocolate Blackout Cake from Ebinger's

Mon, 06 Jan 2003 20:31:59 -0500

New Yorkers (especially Brooklynites) will wax nostaligic over this intensely chocolate cake. I remember having a piece as a little girl and I have never forgotten how wonderful and rich that little piece was. You will get a lot of utensils dirty making this cake, and it has a lot of preparation steps, but it is so worth it! -- posted by Mirj

Levana's Orange Poppy Seed Cake

Thu, 16 Jan 2003 20:03:52 -0500

In my never-ending search for orange zest recipes, I came across this one in Levana Kirschenbaum's new book, Levana's Table. It's the most heavenly version of orange poppy seed cake I've seen so far. My only change to the recipe was to move it from the food processor to the stand mixer. -- posted by Mirj

Entenmann's Pound Cake

Tue, 28 Jan 2003 20:11:32 -0500

I have divine childhood memories of Entenmann's pound cake, which my mother rarely buy since she would usually bake her own. I found this recipe on a copycat site, and never ever thought of using powdered sugar before. -- posted by Mirj

Apple Everything Cake

Wed, 05 Feb 2003 20:01:00 -0500

I first found this on International Recipes Online, and it sparked my interest because it's supposedly from New York (New York does have great apples). It's a very simple cake, and doesn't have any cinnamon in it, so it's become my daughter Nomi's favorite. -- posted by Mirj

Monkeyboy Banana Chocolate Cake

Fri, 07 Mar 2003 20:06:31 -0500

A moist, delicious cake--my family has been making this version for years. -- posted by Miraklegirl

Chocolate Espresso Torte

Mon, 05 May 2003 20:00:49 -0400

This is a flourless, rich, dense cake which is as creamy as cheesecake- so serve tiny slices. It is a passover recipe (just make sure to dust the pan with Passover cake meal instead of flour) but would be delicious year round. Enjoy! -- posted by Miraklegirl

Orange Sunshine Cake

Mon, 16 Jun 2003 20:02:48 -0400

Like oranges? You're going to love this cake! There's some work involved in getting it all together, but it's worth it! Very impressive! -- posted by Mirj

Majestic & Moist New Year's Honey Cake

Thu, 29 Sep 2005 18:16:34 -0400

Here is Marcy Goldman's "sweet" honey cake (from her book, A Treasury of Jewish Holiday Baking) to serve for your Rosh Hashanah dessert. Ms. Goldman writes: "I like a New Year's honey cake to be extra moist and sweet, as good on the day of baking as it is days later: This one is queen of the realm--rich, nicely spiced, in a word, majestic in taste and stature. I went through many variations and tasting sessions until I was satisfied with this definitive cake. One taster gave the ultimate compliment, saying, "This one is worth the price of the book." Like most honey cakes, it is a good keeper and can be made a couple of days ahead". -- posted by dojemi

Perfect Honey Cake

Fri, 30 Sep 2005 15:04:26 -0400

I've tried many many honey cake recipes, and this is my favorite, both for depth of flavor and ease of production. It's basically a one-bowl cake, freezes very very well, and can be made in a variety of sizes. I got this from Amit Women's cookbook (Efrat chapter, Chicago), and can barely read the page because of all the spills on it. Even my mom, an extraordinary baker, has begun to use this recipe instead of her own. A perfect Rosh Hashana/Sukkot treat! -- posted by Sarah Chana

Sue's Honey Cake

Mon, 31 Oct 2005 18:35:37 -0500

Sue had lived in London and got this recipe there. It is traditionally served on Rosh Hashana, symbolic of sweet wishes for a New Year. The recipe makes enough batter for 2 loaf shaped pans. I used glass pyrex pans and they were over cooked when baked the full hour. I think this tastes best after a few days so make ahead if possible! -- posted by Oolala

Foolproof, One Bowl Banana Cake

Thu, 09 Mar 2006 21:41:38 -0500

Made for those of us who often only have time to bake in the wee hours of the morning (or when we are half asleep), this super easy banana cake offers a great way to use up the , overripe bananas sitting on the top of your refrigerator, and still make something that everyone will enjoy. It can be frosted or not, but I usually don't bother; it stands on its own. Another winner from "The Makings of a Meal." -- posted by Sarah Chana

Grandma's Honey Cake (Non-Dairy)

Sun, 12 Mar 2006 22:21:34 -0500

My grandmother's original recipe from the Ukraine. This light, fluffy cake is delicious, healthy and smells heavenly. It also makes the ideal lunchbox treat. Keeps well at room temperature, but chances are, it will disappear before you can even think about storing it! -- posted by tanya_g

Gluten-Free Honey Cake (Traditional for Rosh Hashanah)

Tue, 26 Sep 2006 15:42:31 -0400

A rich, moist gluten-free honey cake infused with the essence of orange. This recipe uses Pamela's Ultimate Baking & Pancake Mix, a widely available kosher gluten-free mix that contains no added sugar. If you use a different GF flour mix, you will need to add additional baking powder and xanthan gum. For this recipe, a 9" round cake pan is ideal but a 9x13" square pan can be used if necessary. Kosher: Dairy. -- posted by What's Cooking?

My Mom's Other Soft Apple Cake (In a Tube Pan)

Thu, 09 Aug 2007 06:41:11 -0400

My mom is just amazing. After 70+ years of cooking for others, she keeps on coming up with new ideas for yet another delicious dish. Today she gave me this recipe for another soft apple cake (to distinguish them from her passover apple cake and her "hard" apple cake, my personal favorite). It whips up fast, makes a nice presentation, and freezes well if you dont gobble it down first. I think she got it from "America Cooks for Israel", a cookbook that happens to feature some of her recipes too, courtesy of her only daughter. ;-) Try it, and join in singing my mom's praise. -- posted by Sarah Chana

Bopka (This is My Mothers Recipe and Her Spelling) or Babka*

Tue, 25 Mar 2008 02:32:01 -0400

This is a great cake. It's great with coffee or tea and it isn't a sweet cake. Back in the 50s through 80s my mother belonged to an organization made up of many branches that raised money for Childrens Hospital in Columbus, OH. Each branch was called a Twig (she was in Twig 21) and every year they held a huge Bazaar. My mother would bake Bopkas and eventually people started calling ahead of time to reserve a quarter of a cake. The cost went up each year and the last I remember it was $3.50 a quarter and that was in the late 60s. My brother liked to toast a slice (the loaf pan style) and put a little butter on it. This cake keeps and freezes well in the loaf style. I am sure the tube style would freeze well also. *This is definitely a cake, not a bread (like Challah) as some of the Babkas I have seen in the bakeries. -- posted by Chef #797721

Crowned Apple Cake

Sun, 24 Aug 2008 10:50:14 -0400

Chocolate Roulade With Mascarpone Filling

Sat, 18 Oct 2008 00:36:17 -0400

We made this for Rosh Hashonah this year. It is a wonderful and very pretty chocolate roulade. This recipe is also wheat-free(uses potato flour), so it is suitable for coeliacs. Diana's Desserts, have had this since 2006 and I felt that, this, was the dessert for the High Holy Days. It was scrumptious and decadent! -- posted by Manami

Honey Cake W/Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting

Sun, 07 Dec 2008 01:50:49 -0500

Every Friday night I bake a cake. And this time around, I asked my 3 year old what kind of cake I should make. He had a biscuit w/honey at lunch, so his reply to me was "Honey Cake". I checked the Zaar, and found a promising recipe for Honey Cake and decided to change a few things here and there. -- posted by Joodie

Pistachio Cake With White Chocolate Buttercream

Sun, 10 May 2009 19:57:45 -0400

This recipe is fabulous! It is the kind of cake that brings WOW's from your guests! ;) I've had it for eons just never posted! The caramelized pistachio shards make the cake look & taste like it was specially baked in a high-end bakery! BH&G Magazine, published in 2002, Meredith Corp. It has an hour chilling time and an hour standing time, for which I didn't factor in the time..It has a long laundry list but you will see it all goes together quite nicely, as it has a few item repeated.;) It is truly worth it!! :) -- posted by Manami

Grandma Rose's Honey Cake

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 15:37:08 -0400

I don't know who Grandma Rose is but if she is a "grammy", it must be good. This recipe came in a flyer from "The Chosen People" featuring "The Fall Feasts of Israel." This recipe is for a sweet snack for Rosh Hashanah. It has been a three-generation recipe in Grandma Rose's family. It probably goes back even further, as most family recipes do. Perhaps Moses mom baked it, considering that most of the ingredients were around in Bibical times. -- posted by Mimi in Maine
