Miserable World Cake
The next cake is called “Les Miserables”, which has nothing to do with the article written by French writer Hugo, but is a traditional cake from Belgium.
It is said that at that time, more water was used to make custard sauce instead of milk, which meant “tragic”.
But now we will not be so miserable. Milk, an indispensable ingredient in daily baking, can be used at will~
The taste is soft, dense and sweet, and a small piece is super suitable for making a souvenir~
Moreover, the components of this “Les Miserables” version of the Shanjin version are relatively simple, that is, the production of cake embryo + cream sauce + decoration, so we can easily learn it, which is a super practical recipe.

Butter 155g

④ Add the melted butter to the egg yolk mixture 3 times, and stir well.
Step 3: Assembly
① Take out the baked cake base and cut it in half.
② Pour the cream sauce into the piping bag, then squeeze it on half of the cake base, smooth the cream sauce, and cover the other half of the cake base. Smooth the surrounding area.
③ Divide the assembled cake into two, sieve powdered sugar on the surface, and sift the cocoa powder on one corner to complete.
Simplicity also means change. In the face of the coming autumn season, we can reshape the flavor.
For example, adding chestnut elements to the cream filling, or other more distinctive seasonal ingredients, a delicious autumn pastry is complete~
