We wish you all a Happy Canadian Thanksgiving. Welcome to Mocha Monday at Cappuccino’s Caf?.

Hope you’ve all had a wonderful weekend. The weather was beautiful here, sunny and warm (as it should be). I’m thankful that my mother is still with us. Unfortunately, I was unable to celebrate the holiday with family but had dinner with my mother at the hospital (yes, she is still there recuperating – not much but slowly).

Since it’s a long weekend here in Canada, today’s goodies will be somewhat short but decent. Enjoy.

May your hearts be happy, your mailboxes full and the mailman forever busy. Until next time, Happy Hunting!!!!

Today’s Recipes

Luscious Four-Layer Pumpkin Cake

1 pkg. (2-layer size) yellow cake mix
1 can (14 fl oz) pumpkin, divided
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup oil
4 large eggs
1-1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice, divided
1 pkg. (250 g) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1 cup icing sugar
3 cups thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping
1/2 cup caramel topping
1/2 cup chopped toasted pecans

Directions

PREHEAT oven to 350°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans. Beat cake mix, 1 cup of the pumpkin, the milk, oil, eggs and 1 tsp. of the pumpkin pie spice in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Pour evenly into prepared pans

BAKE 28 to 30 min. or until wooden toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 min. Remove from pans to wire racks; cool completely. Beat cream cheese in small bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Add sugar, remaining pumpkin and remaining 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice; mix well. Stir in the whipped topping.

CUT each cake layer horizontally in half with serrated knife. Stack the layers on serving plate, spreading the cream cheese filling between layers. ( Do not frost top of cake.) Drizzle with caramel topping just before serving; sprinkle with the pecans. Store leftover cake in refrigerator.

Substitute

If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can easily make your own by combining 3/4 tsp. ground cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. each ground ginger and ground nutmeg and 1/8 tsp. each ground allspice and ground cloves

Substitute

Prepare as directed, using 1 pkg. (250 g) Philadelphia Light Brick Cream Cheese Spread and Cool Whip Light Whipped Topping

Scrumptious Flourless Chocolate Cake

This flourless chocolate cake is made much a like a sponge cake: you whip the egg whites and fold them in with the chocolate and yolk mixture. It’s really quite simple.

Make this cake in a springform pan.

This cake is rich enough that frosting is not necessary. Simply dust it with a little powdered sugar.

Ingredients

2/3 cup walnut pieces
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips (10 ounces) or 1 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate wafers (10 ounces). See note.
8 large egg whites
8 large egg yolks at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.

1. In a blender, chop the walnut pieces and sugar together until finely chopped. Set aside.

2. Melt the butter and chocolate together in the microwave, stirring as needed. Set aside to cool slightly.

3. While the chocolate is cooling, beat the egg whites to soft peaks.

4. Fold the nuts, egg yolks, and vanilla into the chocolate mixture. Fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture. Pour the batter into a nine-inch springform pan.

5. Bake for 35 minutes or until done. Test for doneness as you would a cheesecake, by gently jiggling the pan. When done only the center of the cake will jiggle. Remove from the oven and set on wire rack to cool. After five minutes, run a knife or spatula around the edges and remove the ring. Let the cake cool completely before cutting. (The cake is fragile until it cools.)

Baker’s notes:

1. Use Pure Dark Chocolate Wafers for a scrumptious cake.

2. For a more intense chocolate, use Bittersweet Chocolate Wafers. You can also use a combination of wafers.

3. Don’t over beat the egg whites; soft peaks are sufficient. Over beating incorporates too much air which will make the cake drier.

4. Since the cake is still fragile while warm, carefully remove the springform pan ring.

Perfect Pumpkin Pie

Ingredients:

Pastry

6 tbsp cold unsalted butter
6 tbsp cold vegetable shortening
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp fine salt
4 to 5 tbsp ice water

Pumpkin Pie

2 cups canned pumpkin
3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
3 tbsp fancy molasses
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp fine salt
3 large eggs
1 1/3 cups whipping cream
3 tbsp brandy or orange liqueur
Spiced Whipped Cream
1 cup whipping cream
2 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp cinnamon
pinch nutmeg

Directions:

Pastry

For pastry, freeze butter and shortening for 30 minutes. Combine flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Using a box grater, grate the butter and shortening into flour. Toss this mixture with your fingers to coat the fats, breaking up lumps with your fingers as you go. The dough should be a rough, crumbly texture and take on a slight yellow tone. Add 3 Tbsp of the water and mix with a spatula or wooden spoon to bring dough together, adding a little more water if needed. Shape dough into a disc and chill for an hour before rolling.

Pumpkin Pie

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to just under ?-inch thick. Dust the bottom of a 9-inch pie shell with flour and line with dough. Trim edges, keeping scraps to roll and cut for garnish, if desired. Chill while preparing filling.

For filling, whisk pumpkin with brown sugar, molasses spices and salt. Whisk in eggs, then whipping cream and brandy or orange liqueur. Pour into chilled pie shell.

Bake for 10 minutes, then lower temperature to 350 degrees F. and bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until filling puffs just a little around edges but still has a bit of jiggle in center when moved. Allow to cool to room temperature, then chill completely.

To serve pumpkin pie warm, it is recommended to bake and chill completely, then re-warm in a 300 degrees F. oven for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with spiced whipped cream.

Spiced Whipped Cream

Whip cream with sugar and spices until medium peaks form. Dollop over the pieces of pie.

Daily Funnies

My apologies for this one. A little controversial but funny.

Osama contacts Bush . .

After numerous rounds of: "We don't even know if Osama is still
alive," Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his
own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.

Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a coded message:

370HSSV-0773H

Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condoleeza Rice. Condi and
her aides had no clue either, so they sent it to the F B I. No one
could solve it there, so it went to the C I A, then to the N S A.
With no clue as to its meaning, they eventually asked Britain's
MI-6 for help. MI-6 cabled the White House:

"Tell the President he's holding the message upside down."

Tickle Me Elmo

There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys. The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms. Lena is hired at the factory and reports for her first day promptly at 8:00 AM.

The next day there is a knock at the Personnel Manager's door. The Foreman throws open the door and begins to rant about the new employee. He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behind schedule.

The Personnel Manager decides he should see this for himself, so the 2 men march down to the factory floor. When they get there the line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor. At the end of the line stands Lena surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me Elmo's. She has a roll of plush red fabric and a bag of small marbles.

The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs.

The Personnel Manager bursts into laughter. After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches Lena . "I'm sorry," he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face, "but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday..."

"Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles."
