How to make a Donut Cake

April 24, 2013 by Jenn

Mmmm . . . donuts!  Here in Canada we have Tim Horton’s and once a year they reward us nutty Canucks with their “Rrrrroll up the Rim” contest.  Roll your r’s when you say it!  

Supposedly, you have a one in six chance to win things like RAV4’s, BBQ’s, TV’s and gift cards, but I’m just happy when I will a free coffee, or DONUT!  The contest usually runs for March and April, or until the cups run out (I assume) and unfortunately when I went through the drive thru a couple days ago, I had a plain cup.  No more “Rolling Up the Rim” for us in Cranbrook.  So now that I have my stock pile of cup liners that were winners, it’s time to cash them in! 

My absolute favourite baked good from Tim’s is their Tea Biscuit, which is basically a scone and when I went to use my free donut for it, I was told I couldn’t.  “You can get a muffin, cookie or donut, maam”.  What?  Not a tea biscuit?  Fine.  A donut it is.  If you force me, and twist my arm, I’ll order a deep fried, covered in chocolate ganache, ooey, gooey delightful bite of goodness.  I contemplated the most bang for my buck (piece of cup). . . the Long John (sprinkles AND chocolate), the Boston Cream (chocolate and bavarian cream) or the Canadian Maple (bavarian cream and maple ganache).  I went with the Maple Cream and it was delicious!! 

So, with donuts on the brain, I present to you the Donut Cake! 

In this video we show you how to make a doughnut (donut if you will) cake using our vanilla cake recipe and topping it with chocolate ganache and sprinkles.

Keep reading for the recipe.
