Instructions to make 🎂Raffaello Cake🎂
(Almond Coconut Cake):
- Preheat oven to 340F (170C). Grease and line bottom and sides of a 9 inch (23 cm) pan with parchment paper.
- Prepare the almond sponge cake. Separate egg whites from yolks. Add a pinch of salt over the whites and start mixing until foamy. Gradually add sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
- In a small bowl mix egg yolks with almond extract and fold them into the whipped whites. - Gradually add ground almonds and flour and carefully incorporate into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. - Bake for 40-45 minutes until lightly golden. - Let it cool for about 10-15 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on a rack.
- #Prepare_the_frosting: - - Place chocolate and coconut milk in a heatproof bowl and let it melt over a pan with simmering water. - In a large bowl mix Mascarpone cheese until smooth. Add melted chocolate and mix until combined.
- In another large bowl whip the cream until stiff peaks form. Incorporate powdered sugar and coconut extract. - - Gradually incorporate whipped cream into the white chocolate mixture. Fold in the shredded coconut. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- #Assemble_the_cake: - - Divide the sponge cake in 3 layers. Place one cake layer on your serving plate. - Spread 1/3 cup (80g) coconut milk over the cake layer. Spread evenly with a bit less than a third of frosting.
- Repeat with the second layer of cake. Add the third layer of cake and spread with the last 1/3 cup (80g) of coconut milk. Spread the remaining frosting on top and sides of the cake. - - Sprinkle shredded coconut on the top and sides of the cake and refrigerate until ready to serve. - Decorate as desired, I’ve used Raffaello truffles, white chocolate curls and chopped almonds.
Place the mold on the sponge, and cut out a circle. Set aside - this will be the base of the cake.
