Juicy Coffee Gugelhupf

Often, when you order a Gugelhupf as a dessert in a restaurant or café, the actually delicious pastry is far too dry and sandy. To show you what a Gugelhupf should actually taste like, we have the perfect recipe for small mini Gugelhupfe for you. We have created these with a subtle hint of coffee and delicious chocolate chips and then decorated them with a little icing and crunchy crispy pearls.

Ingredients

Egg yolk40 g
Salt1 pinch
Butter | liquid40 g
Mocca paste40 g
Egg white40 g
Sugar40 g
White flour20 g
Hazelnuts | ground40 g
Chocolate drops | bakeproof40 g

Production

Lightly grease the baking tin with a little butter or oil.

Melt the butter over a bain-marie or in the microwave until it is nice and liquid and then leave it for a short time to cool down.

Whisk the egg yolks together with a pinch of salt until nice and frothy. This is best done with a hand mixer. Now stir the cooled liquid butter and the mocha paste into the egg yolk mixture.

Now beat the egg whites with the sugar in a separate bowl until stiff. As soon as the mixture is glossy and firm, fold it into the egg yolk mixture using a rubber scraper.

Then fold in the flour, the ground hazelnuts and the baked solid chocolate drops. Put the mixture into a piping bag and fill each ring cake in the tin with about 10 g of the cake mixture. Place them in a preheated oven at 170 ºC for approx. 10 minutes.

After baking, leave the small Gugelhupfe to cool for about 15 minutes and then remove from the tin. If they are still very warm, let them cool for another 10 minutes. For the beautiful decoration, simply melt some cake glaze over a bain-marie, place the mini Gugelhupfe on a truffle rack and cover completely with the liquid glaze. You can either sprinkle the icing directly with crispy pearls, mocha beans and other decorations or let the icing set and make a pattern with white cake icing and then sprinkle with decorations.

Storage & Shelf Life

Of course, such a Gugelhupf tastes best fresh. However, it can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days. It simply gets drier and drier over time and loses its juiciness. You can freeze the little cakes for up to 3 months.
