INSIDE-OUT KING CAKE RECIPE | MYRECIPES



Inside-Out King Cake Recipe | MyRecipes image

Tradition says that whoever finds the plastic baby tucked inside the cake is "king" for the night, but also has to bring the next King Cake for the following year's celebration. If you've found yourself in charge of bringing the cake, impress your friends by making your own and giving it a twist that's more fun, but simple to do, by filling the inside with color (and coating the outside in delicious cream cheese icing and praline pecans). Now, don't be intimidated by the cake's impressive appearance, this recipe keeps the King Cake simple by using store-bought hot roll mix. You can buy candied pecans at your local grocery store, or you could make your own with just five ingredients. 

Provided by Mark Driskill

Total Time 1 hours 5 minutes

Yield Serves 12-16 (serving size: 1 slice)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (16-oz.) package hot roll mix (such as Pillsbury Hot Roll Mix)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 tablespoons green colored sugar
3 tablespoons yellow colored sugar
3 tablespoons purple colored sugar
½ cup cream cheese icing
½ cup crushed candied pecans

Steps:

  • Prepare hot roll mix according to package directions through the dough resting. Working on a floured surface, use a rolling pin to roll dough into a 17- x 12-inch rectangle. Brush off excess flour from surface and brush melted butter evenly over entire dough surface. To create clean division in colors, use two 4- x 17-inch strips of parchment to cover sections of dough, leaving 1 (4- x 17-inch) strip of dough exposed at a time. Sprinkle each section with a single colored sugar (green on top, yellow in middle, purple on the bottom). Roll dough lengthwise and form the rolled dough into a ring. Moisten fingers with water, crimp ends to create a sealed doughnut shape. Cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place (about 85°F), free from drafts, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375°. Place dough ring, seam side down, on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 25-28 minutes. Carefully remove from baking sheet and cool on a wire rack 5 minutes. Spread cream cheese frosting over cake and sprinkle with praline pecans.

KING CAKE RECIPE | FOOD & WINE



King Cake Recipe | Food & Wine image

Every year in New Orleans, the game of king caking starts to feel more and more like a full-contact sport. Local shops create and serve (and ship!) these cakes each year from Twelfth Night through Mardi Gras day (and yes, it is absolute blasphemy to consume king cake outside of season here). A traditional part of Mardi Gras for the last three hundred years in New Orleans (and beyond), these cakes are more like brioche than “cake” as we know it. The yeast-raised dough is braided, sometimes around various fillings, formed into a ring, and baked. Afterwards, it’s topped with green, purple, and gold sugar to represent faith, justice, and power, respectively, a nod to the “three kings.” A token of some sort, be it a bean or plastic baby, is stuffed randomly inside, and tradition states that whoever gets the slice of king cake with the token has to host the next party! There are as many thoughts, feelings, opinions, and preferences about king cakes in New Orleans as there are king cakes themselves. I take a pretty traditional approach with the dough, but my team and I dreamed up the idea of adding a layer of caramelized sugar to give our cake a fun, shattering crunch. With cream cheese icing for a less-sweet approach, I find myself craving this cake year-round.
