How to make a snowflake cake without baking

First you need to prepare the custard. Break 2 eggs into a saucepan, pour a bag of vanilla sugar, potato or corn starch, sugar. Pour in a little milk and stir the cream each time to avoid lumps. We put the saucepan on medium heat and, stirring, bring to a hot state. Then we set the minimum heat and boil for no more than 5 minutes until thickened.

Do not forget to stir the mass throughout the process. Remove cream from heat and pour into a bowl. We load the coconut flakes directly into the hot cream. We stir.

Cover the bowl end-to-end with the cream with cling film. This will help to avoid condensation and film formation. Let it cool down to room temperature.

Now let's move on to the second step of preparing the cream. Dip natural yogurt in a package or in a glass into warm water. Then, mix gelatin with warm water and leave to swell for 20-30 minutes. Let's dissolve the gelatin in a water bath, not letting it boil. We do this so that the output does not turn out to be a rubber toffee that has lost all its technological properties. In a separate container, gelatin cooled to 30 ° C is mixed with warm yogurt. We turn on the mixer and in small portions add custard to this mixture.

Here we have a delicious and fragrant coconut cream.

Cooking waffle crumbs for the Snowflake cake. To do this, we break the purchased ready-made waffle cakes into small pieces. Just put them in a bag and crush with a rolling pin.

Here is what should be the result.

Now, put white chocolate in one container with butter. Melt in the microwave in stages: first 30 seconds, take out and stir, then heat again. This trick will help melt the chocolate mixture evenly. Pour the melted chocolate over the wafer crumbs and mix evenly.

It remains to form and decorate the best New Year's cake Snowflake. To do this, I take the form and line the inside with plastic wrap. To make the film stick better, grease the mold with vegetable oil.

Now you can pour half the crumbs to the bottom and tamp with a spoon.

Pour the custard with gelatin on top and smooth it over the entire form. On top again I lay a layer of wafer crumbs with butter and chocolate. I send it to the refrigerator for 3-4 hours.

It's time to get our coconut dessert out of the mold. To do this, cover the cake with a plate or cardboard substrate and turn it over. We move the ring. We take the form. Get rid of polyethylene.

You can decorate the Snowflake cake very simply and beautifully using a paper stencil.

We apply the pre-cut stencil to the dessert and carefully cover the top with coconut flakes. Now, carefully remove the paper from the cake. Try not to spill the chips. We got a very delicious melt-in-your-mouth coconut candy cake.

By choosing my recipe, you will quickly complete two tasks at once: prepare a delicious cake without baking and decorate it beautifully for the New Year's celebration. 🙂
