Mousse cake New Year's log

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 10 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   Let's make a sponge cake first. Beat the eggs and sugar well until white. Add flour and almond meal (you can use ground almonds). Mix everything with a spatula.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour the dough onto half a sheet. I have a silicone mat. We calculate the size according to your final shape. I have a Boucher mold measuring 25 x 9 cm. So I poured out the dough measuring 22 x 30 cm.

3. STEP 3

   

   Bake for 15 minutes at 160 degrees. Take out the finished biscuit and let it cool. Then we cut the shape we need.

4. STEP 4

   

   Let's make the mousse. Fill the gelatin with cold water. Place the milk, sugar and chocolate on the fire. Let the chocolate melt.

5. STEP 5

   

   Immediately add the squeezed gelatin. If you have free-flowing gelatin, then fill it with water, about 30 ml, and then dissolve it in a water bath or in the microwave.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add liqueur or syrup. What you will have and what you like to taste.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add cream cheese. I have Philadelphia. Stir with a whisk or mixer.

8. STEP 8

   

   Whip the cream and add to our mixture.

9. STEP 9

   

   Take a Boucher mold and place our sponge cake on the bottom.

10. STEP 10

    

    Pour out our mousse.

11. STEP 11

    

    This is how we will have it.

12. STEP 12

    

    We use the biscuit scraps to lay out the bottom. And put it in the freezer, preferably overnight. Minimum 6 hours.

13. STEP 13

    

    We'll get it in the morning. We will already have such a cake. Making protein custard. I think everyone already knows how to do this. So, beat the whites at the same time and put sugar and water on the fire. Bring to a boil and boil the syrup to 122 degrees. Then pour our syrup in a thin stream into the whites. Beat for 5 minutes.

14. STEP 14

    

    We put the cream into a cooking bag and decorate the cake.

15. STEP 15

    

    This is how I decorated it. Our cake is ready. Place it in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours. But I also burned it with a torch. If you want, you can leave it like that.

16. STEP 16

    

    Happy holidays! Happy New Year!
