This moist and rich cake is called “Day and Night” cake as it consists of a vanilla (white) layer and a chocolate (black) layer. My mom used to make this cake a lot when we were little. One of our family favorites. It brings lots of my childhood memories. Very moist and easy to make cake.
Ingredients:
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups sour cream
1 1/2 cans condensed milk
3 cups flour
2 Tbsp. Cocoa Powder
2 tsp. baking soda
1 Tbsp. Vanilla extract
1 Tbsp. white Vinegar
Filling:
3 cups sour cream
1 can condensed milk
1 Tbsp. Vanilla Extract
2 cups walnuts- crushed
Chocolate Ganache
1/2 cup melting chocolate chips
1 Tbsp. butter
1 Tbsp. heavy cream
Direction:
Preheat oven to 350°F
With electric mixer on medium speed beat eggs with sugar until you get a light yellow color, for about 2 minutes. Lower the speed to slow and add sour cream, condensed milk and vanilla and mix until incorporated. In a separate little bowl mix baking soda and vinegar (This will carbonate the soda so that you won’t taste it) and stir into the batter mixture. Gradually add flour and mix thoroughly. Pour half of the batter into round 9” greased pan. For the remaining second half of the batter add cocoa powder and mix thoroughly. Pour that into another round 9” greased pan. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, 35-45 minutes. Let them cool. Cut each cake horizontally in two layers.
Mix together sour cream, condensed milk, and vanilla extract.
lay all the cake layers and spread with filling (about 4 -5Tbsp. per each layer) and let them soak. Place bottom of the chocolate layer on a serving plate, spread with some filling, sprinkle with crushed walnuts, place vanilla layer on top of the chocolate layer and repeat the process until your finish your layers. Apply filling generously on top and sides of the cake.

Prep Time
10 minutes
Cook Time
2 hours, 45 minutes
Total Time
2 hours, 55 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 duck about 5 lb.
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Cajun Seasonings
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 5-6 Garlic cloves; crushed
- 2-3 apples- sliced
Instructions
- Remove the giblets and neck, then rinse the duck and pat dry. Set the neck aside for making broth with the bones later. In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, cajun seasonings, some salt and black pepper and crushed garlic. Rub the mayonnaise mixture inside and outside the duck. Stuff inside the duck with sliced apples. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic and let it marinate in the refrigerator overnight. When you are ready to bake, preheat oven to 325 degrees; place the duck on a rack in a roasting pan. Cover with the aluminum foil or place it in the oven bag and roast the duckling for about two hours at 325 degrees, then raise the oven temperature to 375 degrees and continue cooking for about 30-45 more minutes or until done. The duck is done when the breast skin is browned, the skin around the legs is beginning to pull away from the bone, and the juices are no longer pink or red. Serve with mashed potato or your favorite side dish. Enjoy!!!

Is the cream suppose to be runny? and soak to the sponge cake?
Yes, the cream will be runny and the sponge will get soaked in it… That’s what makes this cake very moist…
