French Mille Crepe Cake 法式千层蛋糕








Recipe adapted from Baking Wonderland 

Ingredients :

Milk 225g 
Egg 130 g
Salt 1/4 tsp 
Flour 65g 
Icing Sugar 28g
Butter ( melted) 30g 

Cream 
Milk 170g 
Instant Custard powder 100g 
Heavy whipping cream 360g

Method for crêpes batter:

1) Melt the butter in a microwave about 30 second 

2) With a mixer on medium-low speed, beat together the eggs, milk, butter, sugar and salt. Slowly add in flour. Sieve the batter into a container cover and rest for one hour. 


3) Place a nonstick or seasoned 6-inch crêpe pan over medium heat and cover the surface with oil. Add 1 tablespoon batter and swirl to cover the surface. Cook until the bottom just begins to brown, about 1 minute. (you need to peek constantly, do this with a rubber spatula) Then carefully lift an edge and flip the crêpe with your fingers. Cook on the other side for 5 seconds. Flip the crêpe onto a flat surface. Repeat until you have 23 perfect crêpes. Remember to stir the batter before use. 


Method for assembling cake:

1) Mix the milk and custard powder in a mixer for low speed till thick.


2) Whip the heavy cream. Fold a quarter of the whipped cream into the pastry cream, then the rest.

3) Lay 1 crêpe on a cake plate. Using an a rubber or icing spatula, cover with a layer of pastry cream. Repeat until you've used all of the crêpes. Lay the best-looking crêpe on top.


4) Chill for 2 hours. Dust with sifted Icing sugar. When ready to serve, slice it like a cake.












法式千层蛋糕

材料:


A)鲜奶225g


鸡蛋130g(去壳净秤)


盐1/4 茶匙


普通面粉65g


糖份28g


B)牛油30g(隔水炖溶)


做法:


1)材料(A)放入大碗搅拌均匀后过滤,休面30分钟,要煎之前加入(B)料拌匀。


2)以中火将不沾平底锅烧热,用勺子舀入适量(1),迅速将锅转一圈至面糊薄薄地沾满锅底,将剩余的面糊倒回(1),在将饼皮煎熟。


3)当(2)的饼皮煎至边沿微黄,以划刀划离锅,再用手取出放在一个容器内,重复做法至完,(记得,每次舀面糊之前必须先搅匀,否则面糊最后会很浓稠。如果到最后面糊很浓稠,可加入少许水调稀)。



贴士:
1。做法(1)的材料(A)休面后,才加入材料(B),使之在煎时能沾在锅里,效果较好。如果太早放牛油,将导致面糊不沾锅,饼皮回煎得比较厚。
2。用长手柄不沾平底锅使煎好的可丽饼容易取出且不会厚,而且长手柄必较容易握。
3。皮料越薄,可以煎越多片可丽饼皮。


馅料:


A)鲜奶170g


既溶蛋黄粉100g


B)植物性鲜奶油360g(打至浓稠)

材料(A)放入大碗以打蛋器搅
拌至浓稠,加入已打发的(B)料拌匀待用。
