MY TY (MAI TAI COCKTAIL)



My Ty (Mai Tai Cocktail) image

The Mai Tai Cocktail is a beautiful tribute to rum....fine aged rum. If you like rum, you will like this strong cocktail. Contrary to popular belief, this is not a fruity cocktail and I cringe when I see bartenders add fruit juices to this perfect drink. If you like fruity drinks try a zombie or Maui Mai Tai - but if you like rum, this is a celebration. This is NOT the original Mai Tai recipe, but it is a fabulous version . The original Mai Tai was created in the early 40's by Trader Vic in Oakland. The name of the drink comes from the reaction of its first samplers, who were from Tahiti, when they exclaimed "Mai Tai - Roa Ae", which means "Out of This World - The Best".

MY MY'S STRAWBERRY LAYER CAKE



My My's Strawberry Layer Cake image

Author Patty Pinner memorialized the many "Queens of Soul Food" in her extended small-town Michigan family in her cookbook Sweets: Soul Food Desserts and Memories (Ten Speed Press, 2006). This recipe, featured on the cover, comes from Pinner's grandmother, or My My. "Its pink color dresses up even the most mundane meal, and its subtle strawberry aroma is divine," says Pinner. "When My My brought this cake to the picnic table as the finale to one of our summer get-togethers in her backyard, you could hear our 'oohs' and 'aahs' echoing throughout the neighborhood."

Time 30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (18.5 oz.) box white cake mix (without pudding)
1 (3 oz.) package strawberry Jell-O
1 Tbs. self-rising flour
4 tsp. granulated sugar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1/2 cup water
1/2 of a 10-oz. package of frozen strawberries, thawed and well-drained (reserving all the juice and the remaining berries)
Reserved strawberries and juice, above
2 (1 lb.) boxes confectioners' sugar, sifted
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
Red food coloring (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and lightly flour three 8-inch round cake pans. Set them aside. To make the cake, combine the cake mix, Jell-O, flour and sugar in a large bowl. Mix well. Add the oil. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the water and the half package of strawberries to this mixture. Mix well. Divide the batter evenly into the prepared pans.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of each layer comes out clean and the layers pull away from the sides of the pans. Transfer the layers from the oven to wire racks. Let them cool, still in their pans, for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, run a knife around the inside edge of each pan, then unmold each layer onto the racks to cool completely.
  • To make the frosting, in a bowl, combine the remaining strawberries and the reserved juice with the confectioners' sugar and the butter. Beat with a mixer (or mash by hand) until smooth and well blended. Transfer the cake layers, one at a time, onto a serving platter. Frost between each layer, on top of the cake and around the sides with frosting.
