Hazelnut with Chocolate Combination – Quick Recipes

Ingredients

Sponge cake :

• 5 egg whites
• 120g sugar
• 120 g hazelnuts
• 2 tablespoon cocoa

Chocolate cream filling :

• 3 eggs
• 80 g sugar
• 200 g chocolate
• 150 g butter

Vanilla cream filling :

• 5 egg yolks
• 5 tablespoons sugar
• 60 g cornstarch
• 1/2 l milk
• 2,5 dl whipped cream

Directions :

1. Sponge cake layer
Take the egg whites (you kept at room temperature) and mix them with the mixer while gradually adding sugar. When you’re done, take a wooden spoon and mix in the roasted, ground hazelnuts and cocoa. Take a baking pan (diameter 28cm) and coat it with butter and flour. Pour in the mixture and cake it in the preheated oven at 180°C for about 15-20 minutes.

2. Chocolate cream filling
Mix the eggs and the sugar together and cook them on steam, add the chocolate and let it melt. (Cook the eggs up to 75-80°C). Remove from the heat and right away mix in 150 g of butter.

3. Vanilla cream filling
Mix egg yolks, sugar and cornstarch together and then pour cooked milk over the mixture. Cook the cream the same way you cook pudding and then let it cool. When the cream is cold, mix in 2,5 dl of whipped cream. Sprinkle warm milk (ca 1 dl) over the cold layer of the sponge cake. Coat the sponge cake with the chocolate cream and put it into the fridge for about an hour. Then coat it with the vanilla cream and leave it in the fridge overnight.

4. Remove the baking pan and decorate the cake with whipped cream.

Now your cake is ready.
