This is the season for a delightful Christmas tree cake that will not only satisfy your sweet tooth but also add a festive touch to your holiday celebrations. Here’s a simple and scrumptious recipe for you.
Ingredients:
2 large eggs
60g sugar
60g flour
1 tablespoon (15g) milk
10g butter
Tea-time Decorations:
Whipped cream
Green food coloring
Ice cream cones
Instructions:
Set your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a cake pan.
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.
Gradually add the sifted flour, mixing well after each addition.
Melt the butter and add it to the batter along with the milk. Mix until smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool completely before decorate.
Whip the cream until stiff peaks form.
Smooth out the cream on your cake using a bench scraper. Grab an angled cake spatula to smooth out the top and edges.
Cut the ice cream cones with a sharp serrated knife, opting for shorter ones for the top and various halved cones for the sides. If needed, dip the cones in water briefly to ease the cutting process.
Affix the halved cones to the cake’s side, creating a visually engaging arrangement by staggering tall and short ones.
Pipe star-shaped dollops onto the cone’s surface, starting from the bottom and working your way up.
For the cones atop the cake, pipe the dollops before placing them. Save the “tippy top dollop” for after they are positioned on the cake. Once frosted, arrange the trees on the cake’s top and add the final dollop at the cone’s peak.
To complete, sift confectioners’ sugar over the cake’s top and the trees. Your masterpiece is now ready to be served! 🍰✨
Happy baking! 🎄✨
