HOW TO MAKE CHALLAH TIPSY CAKE
Challah
Tipsy Cake Recipe
Materials:
Tipsy
Cake:
- 1/2 recipe challah dough, after the overnight proof
- 1/2 cup melted, but cool butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
Tipsy
Cake Creme:
- 500 grams heavy whipping cream
- 75 grams demerara sugar
- 75 grams light brown sugar
- 40 grams Sauternes
- 65 grams brandy
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Step:
1.
You can definitely make this
smaller, as per how Heston does it at Dinner. Divide the dough into 12 gram
portions, then shape and place 5 into each mini cast iron cocotte. When you
bake, you’ll need to adjust the time accordingly: bake for 15 minutes, the pour
on the cream, about 20-25 grams the first time, then 15 grams each time
subsequently.
2.
After the dough has been proofed
overnight, take it out of the fridge and tip out onto a lightly floured
surface. Divide the dough into 20 equal pieces. You can eyeball this, which is
what I did, or if you want to be precise, weight the dough and dived into 20,
cutting and weighting each ball of dough as needed.
3.
Once the dough is divided, tuck each
portion of dough into a tight ball. Choose a baking vessel that is large enough
to hold all of the balls of dough. They will rise a bit, but if they’re snug in
the baking dish, that’s fine. I used a 12 inch round baking dish.
4.
One by one, dip the balls of dough
into the butter, then roll in the sugar before placing in your baking dish.
Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour. The surface of the dough will
show cracking from where the dough proofs through the butter and sugar. This is
ideal!
5.
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Remove
the plastic wrap from the dish and bake for 30 minutes. While the bread
is baking, blend together the whipping cream, sugars, alcohols, and vanilla.
6.
When the bread balls have baked for
30 minutes, remove from the oven and, using a knife or offset spatula, make
incisions in between where the balls of dough meat. Pour in half of the cream
and bake for another 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining cream. Remove from
the oven, let rest for 5-10 minute and enjoy hot!
