BROKEN GLASS CAKE



Broken Glass Cake image

The name does not accurately describe this dessert but since it has been a family favorite for so many years I am loathe to change it. This is a light, child-friendly dessert we instituted for the children at Christmas. It is especially well-received after a heavy meal. You will be asked for seconds!

Time 8h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (3 ounce) package lime flavored Jell-O® mix
1 (3 ounce) package orange flavored Jell-O® mix
1 (3 ounce) package strawberry flavored Jell-O®
3 cups boiling water, divided
3 cups cold water, divided
1 cup canned pineapple juice
1 (.25 ounce) package unflavored gelatin
2 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
½ cup butter, melted
½ cup brown sugar
2 cups chilled heavy cream
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place lime, orange, and strawberry gelatin mixes into 3 separate 9x9-inch glass dishes.
  • Pour 1 cup boiling water into each flavor of gelatin mix; stir the gelatin until dissolved.
  • Pour 1 cup cold water into each flavor of gelatin, stir to combine, and refrigerate the 3 flavors of gelatin until set, at least 4 hours.
  • Heat pineapple juice in a saucepan until hot but not simmering. Stir unflavored gelatin into pineapple juice until dissolved. Refrigerate pineapple juice mixture until cool and thickened, about 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and brown sugar together in a bowl. Set 1 cup of crumb mixture aside for garnish. Press remaining 2 cups crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch cake pan to make a crust.

  • Cut the different flavors of gelatin into cubes. Use a thin spatula to lift the cubes away from the bottom of the dish and loosen them.
  • Very gently fold the thickened pineapple juice and gelatin cubes into the whipped cream mixture until thoroughly combined. Spoon into the graham cracker crust.
  • Sprinkle the cake with reserved graham cracker crumb mixture.
  • Refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours to overnight.

How to make Broken Glass Cake

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 20

Gelatin cubes:
Prepare 3 oz. flavored gelatin packages (I used 3 different colors/flavors of Jello brand) as directed on the box. When set, cut into cubes and store in refrigerator for later use.
Jaconde cake:
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar for sprinkling tea towel
1 cup almond flour
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup all purpose flour
3 large eggs
1 egg yolk
3 egg whites
1/4 cup extra fine granulated sugar
2 tbsp butter, melted
1/2 tbsp Wilton pink/rose gel food coloring -or- Americolor deep pink gel food coloring (do not use liquid food coloring)
Filling:
1 Tbsp powdered gelatin
1 cup pineapple juice
1/4 cup cold water
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 - 1 1/2 cups reserved gelatin cubes (you will have left-over cubes if making a variety of colors)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Prepare tea towel with 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar. Grease jelly roll pan, line with parchment and grease paper.
  • Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the almond flour, 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, flour and eggs until combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Add the 1 egg yolk and food coloring, then mix again to combine.
  • In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites with an electric hand mixer. When foamy, gradually add in the granulated sugar until a white, thick meringue forms. Gently fold the meringue into the almond flour mixture. Add the melted butter and carefully fold again, as to not deflate the batter.
  • Pour mixture into jelly roll pan and bake for 5-8 minutes. Watch it carefully as it cooks quickly and will burn easily.
  • Remove cake from oven and turn out onto tea towel. Trim edges and cut one long piece of jaconde big enough to fit around the inside of the 7" spring form pan. You may have to piece together a bit of the crust, as shown in the first picture below.
  • Using your pan as a guide, cut a circle of cake from the jaconde (upper right hand picture) and press it into the bottom of the pan evenly.
  • Put the pineapple juice in a small sauce pan and sprinkle powdered gelatin over; let it sit for a few minutes until dissolved. Heat gelatin/pineapple juice mixture on the stove-top until melted. Remove from heat and stir in the cold water. Transfer to a small bowl and let stand on counter-top until it cools slightly. Place in refrigerator until mixture has completely cooled (about 5 minutes) but hasn't set up - it should still be liquid.
  • In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Whisk the gelatin/pineapple juice mixture into the cream until combined. Drop the gelatin cubes in the cream randomly. Shake the bowl until the gelatin cubes sink into the cream (stirring them in with a spoon can damage the cubes).
  • Pour the mixture into the sponge-lined pan and chill for at least 6 hours or overnight.
