Congratulations Chocolate Fudge Cake.I love this Congratulations Chocolate Fudge Cake and when I found out the ingredients that it has and finding that coffee is one of them, I totally have made this cake a usual in my home. Being the coffee fanatic that I am I just love this cake and so can you
Bake this cake at least two days before you plan to use it. The flavor
and texture improve on standing. It's time-consuming to prepare, but
well worth it!
6 oz. unsweetened chocolate
6 Tbsp. strong-brewed coffee
1 Tbsp. pure vanilla extract
3/4 pound (3 sticks) butter at room temp.
1 pound dark brown sugar
1 c. granulated sugar
6 large eggs
1 c. sifted all-purpose flour
Confectioner's sugar for decorating
1 c. heavy cream, whipped (optional)
Adjust th rack to the center of the over. Butter a 10-inch springform
pan. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a double boiler, over
simmering water, melt the chocolate with the coffee. Remove from heat.
When slightly cool, stir in the vanilla. (The melted chocolate and coffee
may form a thick paste, but it incorporates easily into the batter when
added.) In the large bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter with
the brown and white sugars until light and fluffy. Separate the eggs
carefully, placing the whites in a large bowl. Add the egg yolks one
at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition.
Add the chocolate mixture to the batter and mix well. Stir in the flour,
mixing only until incorporated. Using clean, dry beaters, beat the egg
whites until stiff and glossy but not dry. Gently fold the beaten egg
whites into the chocolate mixture, handling them carefully in order not
to deflate the egg whites. Fold only until no white streaks remain.
Gently turn the batter into the prepared springform pan. Smooth the top
with a spatula. Place in the preheated oven, and bake for one hour or
until the top springs back when lightly touched. Remove the pan from
the oven and cover the top of the cake with aluminum foil to keep it
from hardening. Place the pan on a rack to cool. When completely
cool, store covered in the baking pan until ready to serve. A plastic
bag, tightly closed provides excellent storage. *Do not refrigerate!*
At serving time, remove the sides of the springform pan and place the
cake on a 12-inch cake platter. Dust the top lightly with confectioners'
sugar. (For a nice effect, you can place a lace doily or stencil on top
of the cake and then dust with the sugar over that. Carefully remove the
doily or stencil and voila! instant masterpiece!) Top each portion with
a dollop of cream.
This cake is good for every occasion even when just at home watching TV, reading or just relaxing it is the texture, rich chocolaty and coffee flavor that really does it for me.

| CONGRATULATIONS BAG GAME:This is a pretty simple game, and the only person who should understand the rules should be the person in charge. Ask everyone to put a paper bag on their head, and tell them not to peek, or say anything. Then, ask everyone to take something off that they don't need. Most people will think an item of clothing, watch, or something of the like. They won't think of the bag. One by one, game players may figure out the game, and remove the bag. Remind everyone this is a silent game, and no one can say or do anything to make any noise. The trick to this silly Congratulations Party game is to let things go as long as the caller dares, but of course not so far that people are upset, hurt or embarrassed. Lots more

Congratulations MENU IDEAS |
|
America loves to celebrate and what better way to say congratulations for any achievement than by throwing a congratulations party. Whether the milestone was big or small, throwing a party can be as much fun as attending one.
The first step in saying congratulations is to set a date and time with the guest of honor. Then it’s time to plan the menu. Celebratory Cranberry Martinis, Good Luck Lemon Lime Chicken, Jolly Good Fellow Fries and Hooray Heavenly Cake. Have plenty of non-alcoholic beverages on hand for guests of all ages to enjoy.
Saying congratulations by making Good Luck Lemon Lime Chicken is simple. First gather 2 to 4 boneless chicken breasts, 1 green pepper, cut in strips, 1 red pepper, cut in strips, 2 med. onions, cut in slivers, 6 to 8 good-sized mushrooms, sliced, 1 lime, 1/2 lemon, 1/4 c. white wine, and garlic powder. Next cut chicken in strips. Marinate in juice of lime for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with garlic powder and let sit 10 more minutes. In the meantime, go ahead and sauté the onion until shiny. Add peppers and mushrooms. Cook until crunchy, do not over cook. In separate pan, sauté chicken strips in butter or oil very quickly until chicken turns white, stirring constantly. Lower heat, add lemon juice and wine. Combine chicken with vegetables. Mix and serve over linguini or rice. This dish serves 6 to 8 people.
No matter how you tell someone congratulations make it a Good Luck party for all guests to remember. By just adding even one simple food item to the menu will help create
a complete Congratulations theme party feeling. |
