Carlota de Limón (Vegan Lime Icebox Cake)

My very light melt in your mouth charlotte cake thats the perfect treat for spring and summer

Charlotte Cake

water

sugar

beans vanilla (split)

eggs

sugar (seprate 1 oz of sugar)

all purpose flour

salt

vanilla extract

bean vanilla (split and seperated)

heavy cream

gelatin

milk

whipped cream (whipped to medium-stiff peaks)

strawberry jam

strawberries (sliced)

strawberries

apricot jam

Preheat oven to 350ºF

Place egg yolks into the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment. Turn the mixer on low and sprinkle in your first measurement of sugar. 

Once it&#39;s combined, increase the speed to medium-high and whip it until the mixture triples in volume, is pale in color, and forms a thick ribbon on the surface of the batter when you drizzle it onto itself. This should take 3-4 minutes.

Combine your flour and salt together in a bowl. 

Sift half the flour mixture over the egg mixture and gently fold it in using a spatula.

Once it&#39;s incorporated, sift in the second half of the flour and continue folding until everything is combined. Set it aside.

In a separate mixer bowl, add in your egg whites with your whisk attachment. 

While mixing on medium speed, sprinkle in the second measurement of sugar, then increase the speed to medium-high. 

Continue whipping until you reach medium stiff peaks. 

Fold in ⅓ of the meringue into the egg yolk mixture using a spatula to lighten its density. This might take a few minutes to work all the meringue in but just keep folding.

Add in your vanilla extract.

Add in the rest of your meringue and continue folding carefully until its homogeneous. Be careful not to over-mix because you will knock out the air inside your batter and your ladyfingers will not rise as much.

Place your printed templates under parchment paper on 2 sheet pans (one for rounds and one for fingers).

Fit a large piping bag with an 809 piping tip then fill it with the batter. 

Pipe the batter on top of the circle template while holding the tip about ½&quot; away from the pan so that the batter is not too thick. Stop piping about ¼” away from the outline of the circle because the batter will spread. 

Place your 8.5”x11” sheet of paper on top of the baking sheet and place some parchment on top. 

Pipe your batter in 8” long lines, leaving about ⅛” of space in between each line. You will have leftover batter, I suggest piping extra cookies or another tray of lady fingers as a backup just in case you have gaps (like I did). 

Sift an even layer of powdered sugar over all of the lady fingers including your circular ones and let it soak in for about 2 minutes. Without the powdered sugar the fingers don’t rise as much. 

Place the tray in a 350ºF oven for 15-18 minutes. Rotate your tray halfway through baking to ensure even browning. 

Remove the ladyfingers from the oven and let them cool.  Once they have cooled gently remove them from the parchment paper to avoid them sticking and tearing later. 

Set the lady fingers aside and begin making your Bavarian cream filling. 

Making Ladyfingers Step-by-Step

Sprinkle the gelatin over the 3oz of cold milk and set aside to bloom.

Pour your first measurement of cream, salt, and half of the sugar into a medium sized pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat. 

Scrape the vanilla seeds out of the pod with a small knife and place them into the cream.

While the cream is heating, whisk together the egg yolks and the other half of sugar in a separate bowl. Whisk immediate or the sugar will make your yolk lumpy.

Once the cream starts boiling, remove it from the heat, then slowly pour ⅓ of your cream into the egg yolk mixture while whisking to prevent the eggs from curdling. This is called tempering your yolks.

Pour your egg yolk mixture back into the pot with the remaining cream, and start heating it again on medium heat while stirring constantly or until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon smoothly.

Strain the mixture to remove the vanilla pod and fibers (and any cooked bits of egg).

While the mixture is still hot, add the bloomed gelatin and stir with a hand whisk until smooth and combined.

Set it in the fridge to cool to room temperature. If you are in a hurry you can also cool the mixture over an ice bath.

Once the mixture is at room temperature, whip the other measurement of cream in your stand mixer with the whisk attachment until it reaches medium to stiff peaks.

Fold ⅓ of the whipped cream into the cooled egg mixture until combined to lighten the density.

Add the remaining whipped cream to the mixture and fold lightly with a spatula until everything is combined. Place it in your fridge until you are ready to use it.

Bavarian Cream Step-by-Step

Pour your water and sugar in a medium sized pot over medium heat and bring to a boil.

Once the syrup boils, remove from the stove and set aside to cool to room temperature.

Infuse the syrup by placing vanilla beans into your container of choice, then pouring the syrup over leaving to infuse a minimum of 30 min. Store at room temperature.

Simple Syrup Step-by-Step

Cut the lady fingers in half down the middle evenly.

On the back of the lady fingers, brush with a layer of simple syrup.

Place the cake ring on the plate that you will be serving it. Line the interior of the ring with the rows of lady fingers. Place the ladyfinger round in the bottom of the ring. Using the trimming from the ladyfingers to fill any gaps around the bottom edge. 

Brush the bottom with a layer of simple syrup.

Spread a thin layer of strawberry reduction on the first layer of cake. 

Pour half of your Bavarian cream into the cake ring and smooth.

Add a layer of sliced strawberries on top of the jam.

Place the second round of cake and repeat the process of brushing with simple syrup, reduction, sliced strawberries and the second half of the Bavarian cream, smooth the top.

Pipe some Bavarian cream along the wall of the ladyfingers on top.

OPTIONAL: To make your strawberries topping extra shiny, mix 1 part water and 1 part apricot jam to make a shiny glaze. You can also buy neutral glaze instead.

OPTIONAL: Strain the jam over your bowl of strawberries to get rid of lumps. Mix your strawberries with the jam to make extra shiny.

Arrange your remaining strawberries in a pattern in the middle, or pile them high, whatever you choose. Brush the berries with warm apricot glaze to keep them fresh and shiny. 

Place the Charlotte Cake in the fridge for at least 4 hours to set or overnight. This can be made a day ahead. Keep leftovers covered and refrigerated. 

When ready to display, gently remove the cake ring by lifting up slowly.

Decorate by tying a ribbon around the center of the cake and topping with fresh fruit of your choice. Cut and serve the Charlotte Cake as you would any cake.

Charlotte : nos recettes inratables et l&eacute;g&egrave;res

pots gervita nature

sachet sucre vanillé

c à s caramel liquide nature ou au lait

biscuits à la cuillère

boîte poire au sirop

Charlotte originale

Sucre vanillé

Lait

Biscuit à la cuillère

Poire

Préparation de la crème

Verser les 4 pots de gervita dans un saladier avec le sucre vanillé et 3 cuillères à soupe de caramel liquide. Mélanger doucement.

Imbibage des biscuits

Verser le sirop des poires dans une assiette à soupe. Tremper chaque biscuit à la cuillère dans le sirop rapidement (le poser dans le liquide sur sa partie plate afin d'éviter d'enlever le sucre glace sur le dessus) avant de le ranger bien serré contre les autres le long de la paroi du moule (on peut s'aider d'une boule de papier alu au milieu pour les faire tenir droit).


Disposition des biscuits

Les couper avant de les tremper si besoin (partie coupée placée en haut).
Puis poser des biscuits trempés au fond du moule, combler les espaces libres avec des petits morceaux de gâteau, bien serrer.

Remplissage de la charlotte

Verser la moitié du fromage blanc au fond en égalisant bien.
Sur une assiette, tailler 2 demi-poires en fines lamelles et les répartir sur le fromage.

Recouvrir d'une belle spirale de caramel liquide puis d'une couche de biscuits trempés dans le sirop.
Recommencer les mêmes opérations que précédemment : verser le reste de fromage puis répartir 2 poires en lamelles et arroser de caramel liquide.

Enfin, finir par une couche de biscuits trempés, combler les trous.
Fermer avec le couvercle si on possède un moule type tupperware en appuyant bien sur la charlotte, sinon, poser une assiette de diamètre plus petit que le moule et poser un poids dessus. 

Réfrigération

Mettre au congélateur une quinzaine de minutes ou au réfrigérateur si on plus de temps pour une heure.

Démoulage

Démouler en retournant le moule sur un plat et en ôtant le petit couvercle en haut du moule (pour le type tupperware) ou en enrobant le moule d'un torchon chaud pour que la charlotte se démoule facilement.


Décoration

Verser un peu de caramel liquide sur le dessus pour qu'il s'écoule entre les biscuits (on peut le mettre quelques secondes au micro-ondes pour qu'il soit plus fluide).
Tailler une poire au sirop en éventail et la déposer sur le dessus avec une ou 2 feuilles de menthe si on a.
