Louis' Boston Cream Cake Recipe


Recipe Ingredients:

5 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
3 packages sugar substitute, see * Note
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup flour
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp baking powder
2 cups skim milk
1 package sugar-free vanilla instant pudding mix
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp cocoa powder

 

Recipe Instructions:

* Note: Sweet'N Low or other heat-stable sugar substitute.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease and line two 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper or waxed paper.

Beat eggs with electric mixer until light and fluffy. Sprinkle sugar, sugar substitute, and vanilla over eggs; continue beating for 2 minutes.

Sift flour, cornstarch, and baking powder together; sprinkle half the mixture over batter. Fold in with rubber spatula. Repeat with remaining flour mixture. Use a rubber spatula to spread batter evenly in pans.

Bake on center rack of oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until cake is golden and springs back when lightly touched. Invert cake onto wire rack and cool for 5 minutes; remove pan. Set aside to cool.

Blend milk with instant pudding mix in mixing bowl using electric mixer. Continue mixing at low speed for 1 minute or until pudding mix is dissolved. Set pudding aside for 10 minutes or until set.

To assemble: Arrange a single cake layer on serving dish. Spread two-thirds of firm pudding evenly over bottom cake layer. Place remaining cake layer evenly on top.

Stir cinnamon and cocoa into remaining pudding. Spread over top of cake as chocolate frosting. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Cut with serrated knife.

"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’."
~ John Thorne, American food writer
