Christmas little cakes with cocoa frosting

Overview

It's the end of the year, and the Christmas and New Year seasons are coming again. The happiest people should be the children, who can have fun, have parties, stay up all night, and receive Christmas and New Year gifts from adults! Just in time, I also made some small Christmas cakes for the children to play with, have fun and eat. Feel the flavor of the new year in advance. The cocoa-flavored cake already tastes very good. If you add some frosting to decorate it, it will be so beautiful!

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 A group photo of the cake ingredients; soften the butter at room temperature and put it into a bowl with 15 grams of water. One shelled egg is about 65 grams. Grease the inner wall of the mold with butter in advance, then put it in the refrigerator and take it out when pouring the cake batter

   

2. 2 Weigh and mix the flour and cocoa powder and sift twice

   

3. 3 Put eggs and sugar into a mixing bowl

   

4. 4 Place the egg beater in a pot of water, heat it over medium-low heat, and beat the sugar with a manual beater until the sugar melts. If you have a thermometer, you can measure the temperature to keep the temperature of the egg liquid at about 37 degrees. If not, you can use your finger to measure it, and it will be about the same as body temperature. After the egg beater is out of the water, put the butter bowl into the water and let it melt

   

5. 5 Remove the egg beater from the water and beat the egg liquid with an electric egg beater at medium-low speed until the egg liquid is completely expanded and becomes lighter in color. After lifting the egg beater, the egg liquid falls down in layers like ribbons; at this time, the oven begins to preheat to 150 degrees

   

6. 6 Sift the flour into the egg batter twice

   

7. 7 Mix slightly for the first time and then sift in the remaining flour. The defoaming will be more obvious the second time, but continue to mix evenly until it becomes a uniform batter

   

8. 8 Pour the cool but liquid butter-water melt into the batter along the wall of the basin

   

9. 9 Use a spatula to stir evenly into a smooth and shiny cake batter

   

10. 10 Spoon the cake batter into the mold until it is 70-80% full

    

11. 11 Shake a few times and place the mold into the middle rack of the preheated oven

    

12. 12 Heat up and down, 150 degrees, 35 minutes

    

13. 13 After the cake is baked and taken out of the oven, there will be an obvious gap between the cake and the mold, so it can be easily removed from the mold

    

14. 14 Place the cake upside down on a drying rack and let it cool naturally before eating it directly or decorating the surface

    

15. 15 Mix 5 grams of protein powder with 25 grams of water, then add powdered sugar and beat into a paste. This is icing sugar

    

16. 16 Use a spatula to put the frosting into a piping bag, and cut a small opening at the front when using it

    

17. 17 According to your own preference, you can decorate the bottom of the cool cake pattern
