Easter Cake or Pasqua Cake

INGREDIENTS

• 1 sheet of La Granja Traditional Sponge Cake
• La Granja Chocolate Eggs and Figurines
• 500 ml whole milk
• 4 egg yolks
• 100 g white sugar
• 50 g cornstarch or corn flour
• Fruits to taste (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries…)

PREPARATION

1. Dissolve the cornstarch in 50 ml of cold milk in a glass. In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until well combined. Incorporate the mixture into a saucepan along with the dissolved cornstarch and the rest of the milk (450 ml). Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the desired cream texture is obtained. Let it rest until it reaches room temperature.
2. Cut the sheet of La Granja Traditional Sponge Cake into the shape of your favorite animal. We made an Easter bunny.
3. Fill a piping bag with the cream and cover the entire surface of the sponge cake. This will help secure the fruits on the cake.
4. Cut the chosen fruits and decorate the cake along with the La Granja chocolate eggs.
5. You can add feathers or Easter chicks to give it a more festive touch. The more imagination… the better!
