SAVARIN NEST CAKES

  • 8 Tbsp (115 g) butter (Softened | At Room Temperature)
  • 1/3 cup (75 g) light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp (4 g) baking powder

CHOCOLATE GANACHE

  • 2 oz (55 g) dark chocolate chunks
  • 1/4 cup (60 g) heavy whipping cream

DECORATION

  • 1/2 cup (120 g) Cadbury Mini Eggs

Instructions
 

CHOCOLATE GANACHE PREPARATION

  • First, prepare your Chocolate Ganache in order to let it set while getting your cakes ready.
  • Pour the Heavy Whipping Cream into the Mini Round Mold and bring it just to a boil in microwave, about 30 seconds at a time. Add the dark chocolate chips and swirl to coat all chips. Allow to sit for 2 minutes, then stir. 
  • Place your Oval Savarin Flexipan® Tray on the top of your Medium Perforated Baking Sheet.
  • Preheat oven to 350F/180C.

SAVARIN NEST CAKES PREPARATION

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk the softened butter and light brown sugar together. Incorporate the eggs. Then, mix in the flour and baking powder.
  • Scoop your batter into your Flexipan®.

BAKE!

  • Bake for 15 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cakes from 30min). It is ready when the toothpick inserted comes out clean.

ASSEMBLY

  • Once your Savarin Nest Cakes are out of the oven, let them cool down completely. Then, unmold onto your serving plate.
  • Fill your Pastry Bag with your cooled Chocolate Ganache and pipe it over your cakes. Then, arrange the Cadbury eggs on top. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
