Paris-Brest cake
Here's a recipe from me too. So far, I have only looked at other people's recipes, so I said that I would also contribute
Preparation steps
- For the dough, boil oil and water to a boil, then add flour, sugar and remove from the heat, mix well and leave to cool.
- When the dough has cooled, add one egg at a time, as when making princess donuts, and finally add baking powder.
- On a greased and floured cake tin, squeeze out a circle-sized cake plate with a party syringe, another one next to this circle and one in the middle over these two. In this way, a wreath is formed which should be sprinkled with a little chopped (on the leaves) almonds and baked like a princess donut at 220C to be finely baked.
- For filling 1, cook the filling of egg yolks, sugar, vanilla, flour and milk, and when it cools down, add butter and whipped cream.
- Cook the almonds, peel them and bake them in the oven.
- Fry the sugar with a little water to get caramel, then add the almonds and pour the mixture on a baking sheet to cool. Cold grind and add to the filling.
- For the filling 2, whip the whipped cream separately according to the instructions from the bag and especially the sour cream and mix. In this way, a lighter whipped cream was obtained, and if you like, you can just put sour cream.
- Cut the crust into two parts and fill first with the filling and then with the whipped cream, cover and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Serving
* according to the recipe there are 4 eggs but I usually put 5 because my dough is softer and it grows better
