Chocolate Bouchee [delicious bite-sized snacks]

Overview

This is a popular French afternoon tea dessert, which means a French layer cake that can be eaten in one bite. It is called Butip in Japanese. It is soft and delicious and can be enjoyed with simple ingredients. If you extend the baking time appropriately, it will have a crunchy biscuit-like texture when it is first made. After adding the filling, it will absorb moisture and become softer and have a cake-like texture after being sandwiched. It depends on what you like. (Thank you iris-iris for sharing)

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Separate the egg yolks and protein, weigh the other ingredients and set aside.

   

2. 2 Add 10 grams of sugar to the egg yolks and beat evenly.

   

3. 3 Add 15 grams of sugar to the egg whites in three batches and beat until dry.

   

4. 4 Pour the egg yolk liquid into the egg whites and mix evenly.

   

5. 5 Sift in the flour and mix well, trying not to create bubbles.

   

6. 6 Put the mixed batter into a piping bag, you can cut a round mouth or put a round mouth in advance. Squeeze into droplets about 3CM in diameter. (I squeezed it into a mini size, only 2CM)

   

7. 7 Bake in a preheated 180 degree oven for about 12 minutes. If the bottom is still sticky after baking, it means it is not ready yet. You can extend the baking time appropriately. If it can be easily removed, it means it is OK.

   

8. 8 Next, make the stuffing. Heat the whipped cream to a gentle boil and add dark chocolate coins.

   

9. 9 Let stand for about 2 minutes, stir evenly, and let cool.

   

10. 10 Take a small cake and apply some filling with a tool (or put the filling into a piping bag and squeeze a little filling).

    

11. 11 Cover with another piece and press it slightly. (It’s best to pinch the stuffing when it’s neither soft nor hard)
