is Milk Bar Monday of my favorite !! Man oh man did we seek good to share with you today. Maybe not the easiest recipe we fait- but it is so delicious and definitely worth it. In fact, Andy said it was his favorite recipe, I made the Milk Bar Cookbook far! (He even liked it better than cereals Milk Ice Cream Pie sweet corn that was once his reigning fave.)
As always with cakes Christina Tosi, it many different layers and fillings making each bite tastes better than the last. The base is a rich chocolate cake with thick fudge filling, marshmallows charred, malted milk "crumbs" and Ovaltine "dip" that keeps each layer of moist and flavorful cake extra.
from the outside, my cake was a bit smeared the oozing fudge a little, but for some reason I kind of liked the messy sticky aspect of it -this. The fudge was used instead of icing so that the whole was a little ooze-y.
Once I cut the cake if I was so relieved that everything was more or less remained in place, and the gooey fudge only to the richest and most delicious cake. I tried the cake right out of the refrigerator, but after I photographed it and let it sit for a few minutes, and the fudge was soft and almost creamy, it was even better.
I have made a small change to the original recipe which was to use all its recipe for classic hot fudge instead of an additional batch of "malt hot fudge. "Erin mentioned she preferred the classic, so I thought I 'd save me one step and avoid making two lots. I'm sure with the other makes the taste "malted," but I'm really glad I did as I did. This fudge sauce was to die for!
This is just a small group of post today, but Erin's Big Fat Baker released any original recipe for you with all that is footsteps. Jacqueline from The Dusty Baker also made the cake, but the gluten and dairy free!
- 1 recipe chocolate Cake (recipe below)
- 1 recipe Ovaltine Soak (recipe below)
- 1 recipe Hot Fudge sauce (minus 3 T used for the cake.) (recipe below)
- 1 milk recipe malted Crumbs (recipe below)
- 1 recipe charred marshmallows (recipe below)
- Invert the chocolate cake on a sheet of parchment paper or Silpat and peel off the parchment paper support. Using the 6-inch cake ring, bend two circles of the cake. These will be the upper and middle classes. The cake "scrap" remaining will be there to make the bottom layer of the cake.
- Clean the cake ring and place it on a sheet of parchment paper or Silpat atop a baking sheet. Using an acetate strip line inside the cake ring. Put the pieces of cake in the ring and use the back of your hand to press the pieces together in an apartment, even later.
- Dunk a pastry brush soaking in ovaltine and give the layer of waste a good healthy swim half the soak.
- spread a fifth of fudge sauce on the base layer with the back of a spoon. (Fudge sauce warmer is easier to spread.)
- Then sprinkle half the crumbs malted milk crumbs and ⅓ marshmallows evenly over the top of the fudge. Use the back of your hand to the anchor in place.
- Top with another fifth of the fudge, using a spoon to spread as evenly as possible.
- With your index finger, gently tuck the second acetate strip between the cake ring and the top ¼ inch of the first acetate tape, so you ring a clear acetate 5 -6 inches TALL high enough to support the height of th finished cake. Top cake with a full circle (except the best for the top layer), brush the rest of the ovaltine dip on this layer and repeat the process of layer 1.
- Nestle the remaining cake round in the rig. Cover the top of the cake with the last fifth of fudge. Top with crumbs or extra marshmallows.
- Freeze the cake for at least 12 hours to settle the cake and filling. (And to make unmolding easier.)
- Three hours before serving, remove the pan from the freezer, and using your fingers and thumbs, the cake pop the cake ring. Gently peel the acetate and transfer the cake to a platter or cake stand. Thaw in refrigerator for at least 3 hours. (Wrapped in plastic well, it can be refrigerated up to 5 days.)

- Spread the clusters on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 20 minutes. (Mine has brown too toasted to 15 minutes. If your oven runs hot check frequently to make sure it does not brown too.) The crumbs should be sand and the kitchen will smell amazing! fresh crumbs.
- Crush all the bits that are greater than ½ inch in diameter and put the crumbs in a medium bowl. Add the Ovaltine powder and mix together.

- 1 bag of mini marshmallows
- Spread on mauve on a dry baking sheet. Use a kitchen torch or grill to heat until they are completely dark and frizzy on top.
- You can honestly turn everything on fire and just let it die down lie Tosi did. I put mine under the grill until they were really dark brown, then cool in the freezer for 5 minutes.
