Cómo preparar 3 Ginger Gingerbread Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup dark beer and 1/2 cup molasses. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in 1 teaspoon baking soda. Let stand for 1 hour to cool completely.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Whisk in 1/2 cup vegetable oil, then stir in the cooled beer and molasses mixture.
- Gradually whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup finely chopped fresh ginger.
- Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cake pans.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting onto wire racks to cool completely.
- For the frosting:
- Beat 8 ounces cream cheese, 1/2 cup unsalted butter, and 1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest in a large bowl until fluffy.
- Gradually beat in 3 cups powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Chill the frosting for at least 30 minutes before frosting the cake.
- Frost the cooled cake layers and decorate with candied ginger arranged in a circle at the top edge.
