6 uur
Difficulty: 2/5

Prepare
Other materials for 4 mini cakes:
- Granulated sugar
- Small tray of mascarpone
- 2 twigs with currants or other red fruit
- 1 egg
- 30 ml vegetable oil
- 90 ml water
- 125 ml cream
- Baking paper
- Cooling grid
- Chocolate sticks
Mix 5 gram egg white powder with 30 ml water and let is solve in minimum 6 hours.
Was a few twigs with currants and let them dry. Dip the currants in the egg white mixture and sprinkle some sugar over them. Let them dry on a slice of baking paper.
Preheat the oven on 175°C (convection oven 160°C). Make sure that all the ingredients are at room temperature. Mix 175 gram mix, 1 egg, 30 ml oil and 60 ml water in a bowl. Mix for 6-8 minutes to a light batter. Divide the batter into the baking pan lubricated with butter. Bake the mini cakes in approx. 25 minutes. Let the mini cakes cool down after baking on a cooling grid. Cut them a bit if necessary after cooling so that they are beautiful round.
Heat 125 ml cream in a pan and melt 125 gram chocolate in the microwave or a bain marie. Stir them together off the fire and let the ganache cool down a little, so that it becomes slightly thicker. Cover the cakes (that are still on the grid) with the ganache, so that the complete mini cakes are covered with the ganache. Repeat this if necessary and let the chocolate harden.
Take a full spoon of mascarpone and put this on top of the mini cakes. Decorate the mascarpone with two chocolate sticks and finish it with the currants.
Bon appetite!
