Celebrate fall with the rich, buttery flavor of pecans in our fall pecan favorites baking class at NY Cake Academy in Flatiron!
During this 2.5-hour hands-on baking class, you’ll learn how to make two irresistible seasonal desserts completely from scratch: a moist pecan sour cream coffee cake and decadent pecan pie brownies.
Pecan Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Learn to make a tender, moist sour cream coffee cake complemented by the warm, nutty flavor of pecans. You’ll learn how to prepare the batter from scratch, use sour cream to create a beautifully tender crumb, prepare the pecan mixture, properly assemble your cake, and bake it to perfection.
Pecan Pie Brownies
Two favorite desserts come together in one decadent treat! You’ll prepare rich, fudgy chocolate brownies topped with a gooey pecan pie layer. Learn how to make the brownie batter and pecan topping from scratch, properly layer the components, and bake them together to achieve the perfect combination of chocolate, caramelized filling, and crunchy pecans.
Your instructor will guide you through preparing cake and brownie batters, proper mixing techniques, baking with sour cream, working with pecans, preparing toppings and fillings, layering desserts, achieving the proper textures, and finishing your baked goods.
Perfect if you're looking for recipes for the fall season, an extra sweet date idea, or fun things to do in NYC this autumn, this beginner-friendly baking class will teach you essential baking techniques while you create desserts you’ll want to make again and again!
