RECEIPES / COFFEE PECAN CAKE Back

Ingredients

Light-brown sugar

  ¾ Cup
Egg yolks

  4 Nos
Pecans (ground)

  1 1/3 cups
White bread crumbs (dried)

  1 tbsp
Strong Coffee Day brew

  6 tbsps
Egg whites

  3 Nos
Whipping Cream

  1 ¼ cups
Maple syrup

  3-4 tbsps
Semisweet chocolates (melted)

  6 tbsps
Rose leaves(to make chocolate leaves)

  8 Nos

Method of Preparation

In a bowl, beat sugar and egg yolks until light. Gently fold in nuts and bread crumbs and stir in 3 tbsps of Coffee day brew. In another bowl, whisk egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold whisked egg whites in the nuts and coffee mixture. Pour the mixture in to pan and bake in a pre-heated oven at 3500 F(1750 C)until the cake rises (approx. 30 min). Cool the cake on a rack. Meanwhile make the chocolate leaves. Brush melted chocolate on the backside of rose leaves. Place on waxed paper; let it stand until it sets and them peel off the leaves.

Once the cake is cool slice it horizontally into two. In a bowl blend cream, the rest of Coffee day brew and maple syrup together. Spread half the cream between the sliced cake and sandwich together. Spread the remaining cream over the cake. Peel the chocolate leaves from the wax paper and decorate the cake.
P.S. Pistas can be used instead of pecans
