Delicious. I don't think anyone could stop at one piece of any of your cakes. It's so soft that it just melts in your mouth. Thank you, Rik, for another delicious cake.
Hey Rik! Boston here!! Mmm hmmm. Now, this is MY favorite cake and you have the perfect recipe. The lightened up cake batter is absolute key, here. You, my dear Sir, are a curse to my waistline!! But I love it! Thank you and God bless. ✌️🥂⭐️
I just love how you always enjoy your food, makes me want to make it all! You are a great Ambassador for cooking at home, thanks so much, I'm very, very glad I found your channel!
My dad's favorite dessert! I remember Mom making this for him, but she would bake two layers of her vanilla cake and put the custard between. Her ganache was near the same as this one. It was delicious! But this one looks great too! Thank you!
@@BackyardChef What is simple for you... drips down my elbows... falls flat in the oven ... glumps up in the sauce pan... I struggle with cooking .... HOWEVER, you are showing me techniques to make things better. Don't forget... YOU are an expert and most recipes look easy to you. Much love! Reb
@@r.e.sutherland9577 You got this. Everything I cook on here is in an easy way so everyone can cook. Don't over complicate anything follow what I do, take your time and you will make everything on this channel. REMEMBER it's about giving it a go!!!! Thank You. Best, Rik
You are not my friend, teasing me with desserts. This was one of my absolute favorites. The chocolate, the custard, the cake - Yum I used to use Dental floss to cut my cake in layers.
My complete cheat method is a yellow cake mix baked in a pie pan. Cut in half for two layers. Make instant vanilla pudding with a little less milk so it's a bit thicker. Thin out a can of chocolate fudge frosting to spread on top. It's assembled and served from the pie pan (hence the name). No, it's not as good as Rik's but it's quick and doable if that's all you have the bandwidth for.
Oh yummo!! Rik. I’ve never made one of these because I thought it was a pie lol. Never realised it was a sponge cake. Now I’ll have a go at making one. It looks delicious.
Fantastic looking cake Rik, (the pie part has me a little confused I must admit 😉), had never heard of this before. Your sponge looked absolutely sublime 😍, moist, light & springy, with perfect texture.👌 One of my all time favourite sweet cakes is the humble custard slice, & your sandwich filling very much reminds me of that, topped with the chocolate ganache … sheer bliss!🥰😋 Would love to enjoy a slice of that with a nice cuppa ☕️ 🫖 . Those little knife guiding gadgets are a clever idea, especially for someone like me who specialises in wonky cake cutting, think my eyes must be off balance!🤪😆😂 Thanks as always Rik 🙏 & thank you to the lady who made the suggestion to try out this recipe! 👌👨🍳🍰😋
Unfortunately I can't eat chocolate but a voice from the other end of the living room said " but I do ". Cheeky bugger 😂😂😂😂. Definitely going to try your recipe Rick thank you for posting this ❤
Beautiful cake Rik if I was making this for my hubby he would like banana adding to that custard not orthentic I know but I’m guessing still tasty thank you , Amanda xx
Love the fact that the custard was made with everything cold and then heated. Much less chance of an inexperienced cook making scrambled eggs instead of custard. Many thanks Rik x
@ absolutely! I love it when people are excited over food - especially beautifully-executed recipes ❣️ And, I’m very happy to let the chef know his talents are fabulous!
That looks amazing! I always prefer the all in one method for sauces but haven't used it for custard before! How about a Key Lime Pie next? Is it like a cheesecake? Xx
No Key Lime pie is something that was created in the Florida Keys, story goes after a hurricane the Keys were cut off for a time, and the only thing they had for dessert was Key limes(small pungent yellow fruit, now supposedly extinct, though Mexico grows a dark green version) and condensed milk, they combined the two, and poured it into a cooked pastry shell, left it a few hours and it set up so you could cut it. Today it is topped with whipped cream.Some are now made by also adding egg yolks, pinch of salt, and baking till set, if made that way it needs a low oven, and careful watching, as it can overcook, and curdle very easily.😊
Awesome, I am definitely going to do this. You made it look so simple. I have looked at recipes to make this and it seems so complicated but you made it seem absolutely easy. Definitely going to do it thank you thank you thank you
That’s a good one Rik. That is the exact recipe for celebration cakes I made at the restaurants I worked in, and for chocolate I swopped out some of the flour for cocoa powder. I haven’t seen a Boston cream pie in years, when I first arrived in the US every Diner in New Jersey, and New York had them, and though I no longer go as often to Diners I haven’t seen it in the Diners I do visit, that being said Dunkin Donuts sells a Boston cream donut, a custard filled one with a chocolate glaze top, and my favorite donut.😊🍩
Chef, are you familiar with New York style crumb cake? It's right up your alley. Be sure to use cake flour for the cake & AP flour tor the crumbs. Sometimes its called New Jersey Crumb Buns. Bon Apetite!!!
My son went through a phase where he wanted custard (what we call cornstarch pudding) everyday when he came home from school. And he'd ask for Boston cream pie too. Never could get the filling thick enough to stay between the layers. It ran out and down the sides just like the chocolate. I'm going to try your recipe with the sweetened condensed milk. I've always seen it as a two layer cake. I like that ratio of cake, filling, icing.
Just made this but only one layer. Whish I could add a photo. Boston cream pie (cheated and used Birds for the custard) I can add the cake photo to my Shropshire pie and potato, onion cheese pie photos. Thanks.
OOoohhhhh..... "cooome ooon!" Well.....I'm coooming! 🤭😁 Total cake porn LOL Marvelous🤩! Tomorrows desert👍. Thank you. 💐 I have those whatchamacallit- thingamajigs for cake slicing. They work great 👌
