Snickers Cake with Peanuts

A wonderful treat for tea — make it yourself! Snickers cake is one of my family's favorites; it's pretty simple and perfect for a tea party at home or for catching up with friends over coffee (the ladies will know what I mean ;). The ingredients are easy to find, the flavor is wonderful — all that's left is to get inspired and start baking!

    1. Start with the sponge layers. You'll need 2 for this cake (you could double all the ingredients to bake one tall sponge and slice it, but I'm used to making them separately).
  • So:
    • beat the eggs with the sugar and vanilla sugar;
    • pour the vegetable oil and milk into the mixture and beat with a mixer;
    • sift in the flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder, and beat again;
    • line a baking pan (10 inches / 26 cm across) with parchment and pour in the batter;
    • bake in an oven preheated to 350°F (180°C) for about 20 minutes (test for doneness by poking the sponge with a wooden skewer — if it comes out dry, the layer is done);
    • bake the second layer the same way.
    1. Now it's time for the meringues:
    • whip the egg whites with the sugar to firm, stable peaks;
    • line a baking sheet with parchment;
    • transfer the meringue to a piping bag fitted with a tip and pipe meringues onto the sheet;
    • dry them in an oven preheated to 250°F (120°C) for an hour.
    1. Toast the peanuts in a dry skillet, then transfer to a blender and pulse (keep the pieces coarse — you don't want a powder).
    1. Put the dulce de leche in a deep bowl, add the softened butter, and beat for 5 minutes. The mixture will become fluffy, smooth, and even.
    1. Make the ganache. Pour the cream into a saucepan, set it on the heat, bring to a boil, add the broken-up chocolate, and stir thoroughly. Let it cool for 5 minutes.
    1. Assemble the Snickers cake:
    • place one sponge layer on a large flat plate, spread generously with the dulce de leche cream, and sprinkle with peanuts;
    • arrange the meringues on top, spread with more cream, and sprinkle with peanuts;
    • cover with the second sponge layer;
    • frost the sides of the cake with the remaining dulce de leche cream and coat with peanuts;
    • pour the ganache over the top and refrigerate the cake to set for at least 2 hours.
  • Now you can get ready for tea — the treat is served!
  • Enjoy!
