STRAWBERRY & CREAM CAKE BITES

Serves 30
Hands-on time: 10 minutes
Hands-off time: 60 minutes

INGREDIENTS

cup (113g) softened margarine
cup (112g) castor sugar
2 medium eggs
1 cups self-raising flour
cup ice-cold Nestl Whipping Cream
15 halved fresh strawberries

METHOD

1. Preheat the oven to 180C and line a 23 cm square baking tin with baking paper.
2. Place the Nestl Whipping Cream into the fridge 12 hours before whipping to ensure the best results.
3. Add the margarine, sugar, eggs and a cup of hot water into the mixing bowl. Using an electric whisk, beat this mixture until smooth and well combined.
4. Gently fold the self-raising flour through the wet ingredients until a smooth cake batter has formed.
5. Spoon the cake batter into the lined baking tin and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and risen. *Chefs Tip: If a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean, the cake is ready.
6. Once baked, allow the cake to cool to room temperature for about 40 minutes.
7. Before serving, whip the cold Nestl Whipping Cream until stiff peaks form, about 7-8 minutes.
8. Spoon the whipped cream onto the cooled baked cake and spread it neatly using a spatula. Cut the cake into 30 even-sized bites and arrange them onto the platter.
9. Garnish each slice with a strawberry and refrigerate until ready to serve, and ENJOY with a cup of tea!

CHOCO-CARAMEL CREAM PUFFS

Serves 30
Hands-on time: 25 minutes
Hands-off time: 30 minutes

INGREDIENTS

cup low-fat milk
cup (57g) softened margarine
cup cake flour, sieved
2 medium eggs
cup ice-cold Nestl Whipping Cream
cup Nestl Caramel Treat Dairy Dessert

Serving suggestion:
Melted chocolate

METHOD

For the puffs:
1. Preheat the oven to 180C, fan assisted and line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.
2. Heat a cup of water with the milk and margarine in a small pot over medium-low heat. Once the margarine has completely melted into the milk mixture use a wooden spoon to mix the cake flour in until a dough has formed.
3. Cook the dough on a low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously. *Chefs Tip: The pastry will start to stick to the base of the pot when ready.
4. Take the pan off the stove and allow the dough to cool for about 10-15 minutes.
5. Once cooled, add the eggs to the pot and beat using the electric whisk until a light and fluffy batter-like consistency forms. *Chefs tip: Add the eggs one at a time to make the whisking easier.
6. Spoon the batter into the corner of a resealable bag. Snip 2cm off the corner and pipe 15 circles onto each baking tray, about the size of a R5 coin and about 2-3 cm high. *Chefs Tip: Dip your finger into water and flatten the top of each pastry circle.
7. Bake the pastry for about 20 minutes or until risen and golden brown. Once baked allow the puffs to cool to room temperature for 10-15 minutes. *Chefs Tip: The puffs can be stored in the freezer for up to 6 months.
For the caramel cream:
8. Add the Nestl Whipping Cream and Nestl Caramel Treat Dairy Dessert to a mixing bowl and whisk until the mixture reaches stiff peaks. *Chefs Tip: The Nestl whipping cream must be refrigerated for a minimum of 12 hours before whipping!
9. Cut the cooled puffs into half and use 1tablespoons to help neatly spoon 1 tablespoon of the caramel cream into the centre of each. Sandwich the two halves together again and drizzle the melted chocolate over the tops if using.
