Refrigerator cake

November 19, 2009 • Hello. I am currently out of the country and unable to respond to comments and e-mails. Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ Connie

Ingredients :

15 broas (lady fingers)
4 tsps. of cocoa powder
4 tbsps. of white sugar
1 tsp. of rum (optional)
3/4 c. of hot water
2 c. of whipping cream (well chilled)
1/2 c. of confectioner’s sugar
sliced fruits (we used canned peaches)

How to :

Stir the white sugar and cocoa powder into the hot water until dissolved. Add the rum, if using, and stir well. Transfer the mixture into a shallow bowl. Cool.

Whip the cream with the confectioner’s sugar until double in volume.

Assemble the refrigerator cake. Dip the bottoms of the broas into the cocoa mixture. Arrange five pieces side by side on a plate. Spread a fourth of the whipped cream over them. Arrange slices of fruits on the cream. Repeat until you have three layers.

Spoon the remaining cream into a piping bag with a star tip. Pipe the remaining cream around the refrigerator cake to decorate it. My daughter got a little carried away with the piping and the broas would have become invisible under all the cream had I not stopped her. :-D

Chill the assembled refrigerator cake until it’s ready to be served.

    Hi Sassy.

    Happy New Year. Will you be adding the printer page feature again?

  5. Connie says:

    Hehehe sha, I feel my parents misnamed me hahahaha

    Yeah, A, hopefully. In fact, I already installed the plugin but it wasn’t rendering the printer friendly pages. Will try again soon. :)

    hi sassy… just a quick question…
    when you say whip, do you do it manually or with a certain kitchen equipment? can doing it manually yield good enough result?

    thanks! looking forward to more yummy readings and experiments form you!

    pyjs, normally, if i’m whipping a small amount of cream, i use a wire whisk for manual whipping. if it’s a cup or more, i use the thunderstick pro.
