Welcome back everyone to Katherine's
0:03
Plates. I'm Katherine and it is my
0:05
birthday week. My birthday is August
0:08
30th, which is Saturday, and I want to
0:11
show y'all some recipes that I would
0:14
love to have on my birthday. We're going
0:16
to start with this one here. It's a
0:18
dessert. It's decadent. It sounds really
0:21
delicious. I've never made this one
0:23
before. It is a chocolate dump cake.
0:26
These are the ingredients right here.
0:28
And of course, it's always got to start
0:31
with a box cake mix, right? All right,
0:33
you guys. Y'all come on down. Let's put
0:36
this one together cuz it sounds amazing.
0:40
All right, I've got my oven preheated at
0:44
And it also says to butter your baking
0:47
dish. And we're going to be using a 9
0:50
Now, I've already taken a stick of
0:52
butter out of the little package here,
0:55
melted it for the recipe, and I'm going
0:57
to use whatever's left on here to grease
1:04
All right, just go up the sides in the
1:09
Get the butter off of the wrapper here.
1:15
Now, when you have these, you can put
1:17
these in the freezer and use it for this
1:22
The next step is we're going to take our
1:24
cake mix. I'm using the Devil's Food
1:27
cake mix. It's got a really good
1:29
chocolate flavor to it. This is a 15.25
1:35
It's a dump cake, so everything is going
1:37
to get dumped in there.
1:41
And we're going to start with the bottom
1:46
So, we're going to pour the cake mix
1:49
dry into the bottom of our prepared
1:51
baking dish. Nice and even.
2:03
Oh, it smells good coming out of the
2:08
I know y'all are here for the chocolate.
2:12
I'm going to get a spatula.
2:14
Doesn't that say happy birthday?
2:17
I'm going to smooth it out nice and even
2:19
because we're not going to mix anything
2:21
after this point. Just don't pack it
2:29
All right, there we go.
2:33
The next step is we're going to add our
2:36
chocolate chips. Now, this is where you
2:38
can change up the flavor of your cake.
2:40
You can do peanut butter chips, you can
2:42
do white chocolate chips, or you could
2:45
do the dark chocolate chips, semieet
2:48
chocolate chips, whatever you like. All
2:51
right. Now, I'm using the dark chocolate
2:52
chips. We got one cup. And I'm going to
2:55
sprinkle them across the top of our cake
3:03
Just nice and even across the top. This
3:05
will melt into the cake mix.
3:17
This is the one I'm using right here,
3:21
I love that it's my birthday week
3:23
because I'm going to make everything I
3:26
love or that I would love to make for my
3:29
birthday. But since my birthday's on
3:32
Saturday, we're all going to gather
3:34
together at a restaurant and celebrate
3:36
my birthday with my brother Donald, his
3:39
wife Donna, of course, my husband
3:41
Thomas, Joseph and his fiance Megan. I
3:45
know that's just such a cool word. I
3:47
love that fiance word for him. and then
3:50
Rihanna and her boyfriend Chris. So, you
3:53
know, we're gonna have a great time. All
3:55
right, the next thing we're gonna do is
3:58
drizzle some caramel over the top of
4:01
that. About one cup. I get this one
4:04
right here. It's easy to pour. It's got
4:06
a nice little spout right there. And you
4:07
can just squeeze it on.
4:13
I'm going to be estimating this cup.
4:18
I'm going to get down the sides.
4:22
It's going to have some caramel in it.
4:26
All right, that's what I'm using right
4:30
Now, I know I've been doing some low
4:31
carb recipes and we've been going at it
4:34
nice and strong with it. This is not
4:37
considered like a low carb dessert, but
4:40
if you eat a bite of it, it is. It's
4:42
probably about 10 carbs. It's a smaller
4:48
low carb desserts, but that's okay. It's
4:51
a birthday week and we can do it. All
4:53
right. Now, what we're going to do, cuz
4:55
we've got to give it some more moisture,
4:57
we're going to add in one stick of
5:00
melted butter. This is unsalted because
5:03
there's enough stuff in here with salt
5:04
on it. So, this is half a cup. And we're
5:08
going to pour that on top like we did
5:17
Well, you know, since it's your
5:18
birthday, there are no carbs.
5:21
Y'all agree with that?
5:22
No carbs on the birthday. Sorry.
5:27
Everything you eat is carbless.
5:32
Don't worry, we got a lot of people
5:35
ready to eat this cake.
5:37
We've got Rihanna and her boyfriend
5:40
Chris coming over later today. They're
5:42
going to be diving into this. And then
5:44
we Joseph and Megan are coming over in a
5:46
couple of days, two days. And they'll
5:49
probably eat the rest if there's any
5:53
All right. We're looking for some more
5:54
moisture to get into that cake on the
5:59
Yeah. I've got one can of evaporated
6:08
Good thing I read that. The top of the
6:10
can, it says shake. Well,
6:14
I'm always faster than I need to be on
6:18
Y'all like that, too?
6:21
All right, we'll get my husband over
6:23
here. He's better at it. All right,
6:25
we're going to pour that all on top.
6:30
It's like the magic cake.
6:35
Oh, that smells good.
6:41
that's what I was using right here. Now,
6:44
I've got half a cup of some walnuts. Or
6:47
you can use pecans, or you don't even
6:49
have to have any in there at all. I love
6:51
the walnuts, so they're going in. These
7:04
Now, I've got my oven preheated at 350°.
7:08
We're going to bake this for about 30 to
7:10
35 minutes. You want the top to be set
7:14
and then you want the edges to be kind
7:16
of bubbly. You can take a toothpick and
7:18
go into the cake part of it and then
7:20
come out with that and see if it's done.
7:22
All right. Now, if you want a more ooey
7:24
gooey cake, you can leave it in at the
7:25
30 minutes. If you want it a little more
7:28
drier, then you can put it in at the 35
7:30
minutes. I'm going to be back cuz I am
7:33
ready to try my birthday cake. All
7:38
Now, I did cook this for 40 minutes. It
7:41
was an additional five minutes on that
7:43
just to get it nice and solid on the
7:45
top. We let it rest and cool down
7:48
completely. We had lunch to do that.
7:57
It smells delicious, you guys. All
8:11
right, let me grab a fork.
8:26
That's good. I love the walnuts in
8:29
there. This is so scrumptious.
8:32
Those flavors. It's rich. It's decadent.
8:39
I love that. All right.
8:42
What do y'all think of my ultimate
8:45
chocolate dump cake? It's a birthday
8:49
cake for me. That's the way to start
8:52
your birthday week with.
