Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 cups pecans (6 1/4 oz)
3 1/2 tablespoons matzo cake meal
1 cup plus 3 tablespoons sugar
7 large eggs, separated, at room temperature
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups chilled heavy cream (optional)
3/4 pint strawberries, sliced lengthwise (2 cups)
Special equipment: a 10- by 4-inch (12-cup) angel food cake pan with removable bottom

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Pulse pecans, cake meal, and 3 tablespoons sugar in a food processor until nuts are very finely chopped.
  • Beat yolks and 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until pale and very thick. Stir in lemon zest and juice.
  • Beat whites with salt in another bowl with cleaned beaters on high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in 5 tablespoons sugar and beat until whites just hold stiff, glossy peaks.

STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM FLAN/TORTE



STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM FLAN/TORTE image

Categories     Cake     Fruit     Dessert     Bake     Easter

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup all pourpose flour
1/2 recipe pastry cream (in my recipes)
1/2 pint sliced strawberries
1 pkg. blueberries
or
1 can (11 oz.) Manderin orange segments, drained
whipped cream, to serve (in my recipes)

Steps:

  • Cream butter and sugar in small bowl until fluffy; beat in egg and vanilla. Mix in flour and salt. Spread batter evenly in greased and floured flan pan. Bake at 350 degrees F until cake is golden and springs back when touched, about 14 minutes. Cool on a wire rack; remove from pan when completely cool. Make pastry cream. Place cake on serving plate; pread pastry cream in center. Arrange fruit in a decorative pattern over pastry cream. Refrigerate until serving time. Garnish with whipped cream when serving. NOTE: Any fresh or canned drained fruit can be used in this recipe.

Tips:

  • For the sponge cake layer, whip the egg yolks and sugar until thick and pale yellow. This will help create a light and airy texture.
  • Fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture gently. Overmixing will deflate the egg whites and result in a denser cake.
  • Bake the cake at a moderate temperature (350°F) for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before assembling the torte. This will help prevent the cake from breaking.
  • For the cream filling, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This will help create a light and fluffy filling.
  • Spread the cream filling evenly over the cooled cake layer.
  • Top the cream filling with sliced strawberries.
  • Chill the torte for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

This Strawberries and Cream Torte is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The light and airy sponge cake layer, the creamy filling, and the fresh strawberries combine to create a truly unforgettable dessert. With its beautiful presentation and delicious flavor, this torte is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
