After wishing, here is the recipe for my vanilla cake pops.
Cake pops are a great thing, especially for cake buffets, birthdays or any other event where it's hard to eat your cake off the plate. They basically consist of three things: a pound cake, an "adhesive" (in this case pudding) and a coating. There's no limit to creativity at Cake Pops.
Now for the recipe: First you need the sand cake. Which one does not matter. I have baked the following recipe especially for the pops in these cake pops, but also remnants can be used in this way:
ingredients
- 125 g of margarine
- 150 g of sugar
- 125 g starch
- 125 g of flour
- 2 teaspoons of baking soda
- 1 egg
- (and possibly vanilla sugar)
preparation
- The ingredients are made into a dough and baked at 180 degrees (about 1 hour)
- Now you have the main part ready for the cake pop, which can also stand a day or it will be nibbled.
- It then goes to make the actual cake pop. As I said, I took custard here. But also jam, jelly, cream, cake cream remnants or anything else that "sticks" can be used.
- I used about half of a custard packet for the above pie dough. This is prepared after the package leaflet and allowed to cool.
- Once this is done, the entire sand cake is crumbled as small as possible. Pay particular attention to the margins, which sometimes defend a little. ;)
From now on, I recommend disposable gloves, because now it is gematscht.
- To the cake crumbs comes gradually from the pudding or the other glue and it is kneaded and mixed until a dough is formed, from which can easily form balls that are as big as a lollipop.
- These are then placed on a plate for about 15 minutes in the refrigerator.
- In the waiting time you can cut the shashlik skewers - simply shorten to the desired length - and melt 200 g of chocolate of your choice in a water bath. I have taken dark chocolate, but again everything is possible.
- Now remove the cake balls from the fridge and let the chocolate from the flame, but in a water bath, otherwise it will be thick again too quickly.
- Now the stems are attached. To do this, take a stalk and dip it into the chocolate and then put it into the ball. This prevents the later decoration, the falling of the stems.
- Once all the balls have settled, they are returned to the fridge for 15 minutes.
During this time you build up your Dekoarsenal.
- I took two sprinkles.
- If necessary, place the chocolate on the flame again in a water bath to make it liquid again.
- Now the cake pops taken out of the fridge, packed on a stick, dipped in the chocolate until they are completely covered, a little bit the surplus abgezwirbelt and then fix the decoration on it so that it still sticks nicely.
- Now put the finished cake pops in a piece of styrofoam or in the shoe box lid!
- Let it dry and have a good appetite!
(Incidentally, I made 27 pops from my data)
