Use
Ingredients
Butter
200 g
Granulated sugar
150 g
Sugar powder
60 g
Baking powder
3 g
White chocolate
1 bar (100 g)
Coconut flakes
50 g
Potato starch
5 g
Cream with at least 30% fat content
100 ml
Egg yolks
2
Sour cream with at least 20% fat content
100 g
Method of preparation
1
Beat the egg yolks with half of the sugar until it becomes a white foam. Then add another 75 grams of sugar and sour cream, and continue beating
2
Cut the butter into cubes and add it to the egg mixture. Continue beating until it becomes creamy
3
Sift the flour in advance. Mix one cup with the baking powder and add it to the creamy mixture. Stir and add the remaining part of the flour. Knead the dough for the cake manually until it becomes stiff and does not stick to your hands. Then put the mass in the refrigerator for half an hour
4
During this time, cut out 5 stars from parchment paper, each one slightly smaller than the previous one
5
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit) before baking
6
Take the dough out of the refrigerator and roll it out into sheets no more than 7 mm thick. Use the template and cut out all 5 cake layers to the size of the Christmas tree
7
Bake the biscuits one by one for 10 minutes each
8
Remove the baked layer from the oven and let it cool
9
Make the cream: Grind the coconut flakes, mix them with powdered sugar and starch. Then melt the chocolate in a water bath, gently pour in the cream, mix, and add the coconut mixture. To avoid lumps, use a mixer and remove it from the heat
10
Assemble the Christmas tree cake: Place the largest biscuit layer at the bottom, spread it with the cooled cream, and cover it with a smaller layer. Repeat this process until you reach the top. When the cream dries, shift the stars slightly to the side along the axis to make the tree shape more visible. If you want to make the pastry green, simply add green food coloring or pistachios to the cream. Let the cake soak for 12 hours, and it’s ready!
