27905 Cider Cake and Pumpkin Trifle 4 hours 45 minutes 10 servings Tue Nov 03 07:38:27 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 03 07:38:27 -0800 2009 Medium American User http://www.chow.com/recipes/27905 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:38:27 GMT I created this recipe when I made a cider cake and it wouldn’t come out of the pan. The cake began to fall apart and I decided that rather than throw the cake out I could turn it into something else. I had some canned pumpkin pie filling and some heavy cream and the trifle was created.

  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice in a bowl.
  • Add flour mixture and cider alternately in 3 batches.
  • Divide batter into pans and bake for 25-30 or until a tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • While cake is cooling make pumpkin mixture and whipped cream.
  • For the pumpkin layer add cans of pumpkin, dark brown sugar, and maple syrup to a sauce pot and cook until just warm, and sugar is well incorporated.
  • For the whipped cream fix an electric mixer with the whisk attachment.
  • Whisk heavy cream and powdered sugar together until stiff peaks occur.
