Cocoa Cake Coconut Bavaro
Overview
This Bavaro is what my children ordered to eat. I've been making it for a while, but I haven't uploaded the recipe yet because the steps are a bit cumbersome, so I'm too lazy to do it. Coconut-flavored Bavaro, sandwiched with the softness of cocoa cake, surrounded by a circle of super-delicate almond cake, super enjoyable~~

Ingredients
Steps
-
Let’s make the macaroons first. Mix the almond cake mixture and grind it again with a grinder to make it finer.
-
Add the powdered sugar to the egg whites and beat until 6 points. Lift the egg beater until it has a long sharp edge.
-
Pour the red yeast almond powder into the meringue.
-
Use a rubber spatula to quickly stir to combine.
-
Prepare a piping bag with a small round mouth. Place the marzipan into a bag.
-
Line a baking pan with oiled paper and squeeze the almond paste into a small circle of about 1.5cm. (It doesn’t matter if it’s not round, because the batter is very thin and will still deform a little when baking.) Preheat the oven to 150 degrees, middle layer, and heat up and down for about 8 minutes. Take out and let cool.
-
Next make the cocoa cake: separate the egg whites from the yolks.
-
Add corn oil to egg yolks and stir evenly.
-
Add milk and stir evenly.
-
Sift the cocoa powder and cake flour into the egg yolk batter.
-
Sift the cocoa powder and cake flour into the egg yolk batter.
-
Add a few drops of white vinegar or lemon juice to the egg whites, add sugar in 3 batches, and beat with an electric whisk until stiff peaks form.
-
Add 1/3 of the meringue to the cocoa batter. Use a rubber spatula to quickly stir evenly from bottom to top.
-
Pour the mixed cocoa batter back into the remaining 2/3 of the meringue and mix quickly again.
-
Pour the cocoa cake batter into a square baking pan lined with greaseproof paper and smooth the surface with a spatula. Gently shake out air bubbles. Preheat the oven to 165 degrees for about 20 minutes.
-
Add sugar to the egg yolks and mix well until the color is slightly white.
-
Pour the milk, coconut milk and light cream into a saucepan, heat until bubbling around the edges, then turn off the heat.
-
Pour the creamy coconut milk mixture into the egg yolks while it's still hot, stirring evenly as you pour.
-
Pour the stirred coconut egg yolk liquid back into the cooking pot and heat over low heat again until bubbles appear around the edges. Set aside. (This is the coconut-flavored English cream sauce, the main ingredient for making Bavaro)
-
Soak gelatine sheets in cold water until soft.
-
Then squeeze out the water, add it to the coconut crème anglaise sauce, and stir until the gelatin melts and is evenly mixed. Serve as Bava liquid.
-
Filter the Bava liquid to make it more delicate.
-
Prepare the mold (I used a semi-circular 6-piece mold) and pour the coconut Bava liquid into the mold to 1/2 of the height.
-
Take a round utensil, slightly smaller than the middle part of the mold, and cut out round cocoa cake pieces.
-
Place the cocoa cake slices in the center of the Bavaro in the mold and place in the freezer to quickly freeze for 15 minutes.
-
After taking it out, pour the coconut Bavaro until the mold is full and refrigerate until it solidifies.
-
After it is completely solidified, remove it from the mold and wrap a hot towel around the bottom of the mold for a while, then you can easily release it. Place the red yeast macaroons tightly around the Bavaro cake and enjoy.
