This weekend it was my boyfriends b-day. I asked him to name one ingredient for a cake. He said peaches.
This is what I came up with :)
Cake:
2 coffe cups (small, think espresso size) sugar
4 eggs
1,5 coffe cups (small, think espresso size) flour
Use an mixer to mis the suger and eggs for at least 3min. The longer the better.
Then add the flour, while mixing t on a slow speed.
Put in the oven for 1h-1,25h 175degrees celsuis
When the cake was cooling down i made white chocolate frosting.
Ingredients You Will Need:
8 ounces white chocolate, chopped fine
12 ounces cream cheese, softened
½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ teaspoon fresh lemon
8 ounces white chocolate, chopped fine
12 ounces cream cheese, softened
½ cup unsalted butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ teaspoon fresh lemon
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler. Do not boil the water, but keep a steady heat going until the chocolate melts. To prevent scorching or accidentally drying out the chocolate, watch the mixture carefully and stir often until smooth. Set the melted chocolate aside.
Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until fluffy. Add the vanilla and lemon. Beat in the white chocolate very slowly, one teaspoon at a time.
As soon as the chocolate has been added, begin adding the powdered sugar, one heaping tablespoon at a time.
Cool the frosting before applying.
In the end I cut the cake in two layers and put a lot of raspberry jam in between, then I put on the top layer and covered the cake with frosting. The frosting should have the same texture as cream cheese (could be a bit thinner) this makes it way easier to apply it on the cake.
Then I put peaches on top to make the cake look nice.
