With such a glorious start too.

Ingredients

3/4cup flour
4 whole eggs + 2 yolks
2cups sugar

(separate out 3cups of the batter and whip in amounts of cocoa, sugar and brewed coffee to loosen mixture. Fold into batter)

(Bake 20min @ 350, 30min @ 300, cover pan with lid , 1hr @ 250)

Now it's your turn to prove how good you really are.
Don't be chicken I can assure you, I'll be more embarrassed than you
WHAT WAS THE OUTCOME BASED ON THE ABOVE RECIPE ???
Hint: It's not an ingredient

 

[rdcast]

As I feared. None of you have the ***** to guess.

 

[jpmcgrew]

Im guessing it has to do with the baking time or no reference of water bath although I make mine with no water bath or is it the lid.

 

[Chef_Jen]

it overflowed

 

[VeraBlue]

well?????? How long do we have to wait???

 

[VeraBlue]

Did Starbucks buy it???

 

[rdcast]

VeraBlue, you must pay me for the answer and this cake wont make it out of the house

 

[rdcast]

it overflowed

nope, sorry, try again

close but I can't help you any further than that

 

[rdcast]

ok ok, let me give you a hand before I lose mah audience. jpmcgrew was right about it concerning the lid. Not that I knew, tho I know now, what effect would develop by putting a lid on your springform pan while your cheesecake batter baked ?

 

[Chef_Jen]

the lid stuck to the top of the cake

 

[VeraBlue]

Just tell me this...did you take pictures??? Because I'd surely pay a dollar to see how it all squirted out the bottom...

 

[rdcast]

aww, you ppl are precious, and no about the pic but I wanted to if only my camera was working cause it's a classic. So it's beginning to look like no one here understands what must take place while the baking process proceeds. Would you like another hint ???

 

[VeraBlue]

You're killing me. I have to go to bed soon.

I'm either going to dream of revenge to cheesecake bakers or exploded cake.

You decide.

 

[rdcast]

Should I be scared of you, cuz I think I am, hahahaha
You know it wouldn't be fair to all the other DC contestants for me to give in so eagerly. Come on, can't you guess ?

 

[rdcast]

Ok, hint #3

What do you suppose should happen by preventing all the moisture in the batter from escaping ? And don't say explode !

 

[VeraBlue]

did you get soup?


I know how to get to Long Island, pal

*sighs* when I finally removed the lid to view mah masterpiece, it resembled pudding in every aspect. I just thought the lid would help prevent crackage !!! But noooooooo ! With the lid off, I turned the oven back on to 400. Immediately the top rose gloriously and looked as if it might be salvaged, unaware of the pending grand collapse. What I created was a marvelous BOWLING BALL MITT ! Without a doubt, I achieved the most perfect example of the " fallen cake " ever I've seen. Interestingly enough, the great gaping hole, never cracked !!!!!!!!!!! Final baking time ? 3 hours and 30 minutes.

You're the first person I've come across, to find a need to use the mallet to the head smiley, lol. Well implemented

 

[VeraBlue]

say good night, Gracie

 

[rdcast]

me too, I'm going to bed, way sleepy after fighting the good fight. Wanted to start another cake tonight but I'll get up early to do it.
Good night
