Monin syrup - application

Hazelnut cake

It is best to bake a 20 cm light sponge cake one day before preparing the filling. The following day, it is easier to cut it into slices. Then place the first sponge cake slice in a cake ring fitted with an insert strip and prepare the cream.

70 g sugar

30 g water

60 g egg yolk

50 g whole egg

4 leaves gelatin

40 g hazelnut syrup

60 g hazelnut brittle

30 g powdered sugar

600 g whole cream

Boil the sugar and water together. Along the way, beat the egg yolk and whole egg together, then pour the sugar syrup to the egg mixture while mixing and continue beating until cooled. Soak the gelatin in cold water. Now mix the remaining ingredients into the egg mixture up to and including the powdered sugar. Once the gelatin has softened a bit, it can be squeezed and melted in a pan on low heat. Then, while stirring, add a big gulp of the prepared mixture, once it is well mixed, pour the contents of the pan to the rest of the mixture and immediately stir well. Finally, the cream is whipped and folded in.

Now put half of the filling on the prepared sponge. Place the second sponge on top of the mixture and press lightly. According to your taste, you can still soak the sponge cake with the same or another suitable syrup. Then spread the rest of the filling on the sponge cake and smooth it. Depending on taste and use, the cake is refrigerated like this or covered with another sponge. After at least 4 hours of cooling, the cake can be decorated or enjoyed right away.
