✔️Ingredients:
(for a springform pan Ø 26 cm)
✔️For the sponge cake:
100 g ground hazelnuts
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch of salt
4 eggs
120 grams of sugar
100 grams of flour
✔️For the filling:
200 grams of cream cheese
75 grams of sugar
6 sheets of gelatin
200ml eggnog or Baileys
600 grams of cream
✔️For garnish:
50 g whole hazelnuts
150 ml eggnog
300 ml cream
50 g amaretti
coarsely chopped nuts
✔️Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 175°C.
At the beginning for the biscuit, stir the sugar, eggs and 4 tablespoons of water until white and foamy for at least eight minutes. Then mix flour, salt, nuts and baking powder and fold in. Now pour the mixture into a springform pan lined with baking paper and bake in the hot oven for about 30-35 minutes. Let cool down.
Halve the base horizontally. Enclose a base with a cake ring.
Soak gelatine for the filling. Whisk together eggnog or Baileys, cream cheese, and sugar. Now squeeze out the gelatine, dissolve it and mix with 4 tablespoons of the cream. Fold the mixture into the cream cheese mixture. Whip the cream and fold in. After that, add half of the liqueur cream to the bottom. Now put the second floor on top. Now spread the remaining cream on top and let the cake cool for at least 2 hours.
For garnish, whip cream until stiff. Now spread half of the cream around the edge of the cake. Garnish the edge with crumbled amarettini. Next, use the remaining cream and a piping bag to pipe a wreath of cream tuffs. Then garnish with the nuts. Then fill the middle with eggnog and sprinkle with the chopped nuts.
Tip
Lastly, Baileys is unsuitable for the mirror on its own. It needs to be thickened with two sheets of gelatin
