Ingredients
– 126 g butter (room temperature)
– 100 g caster sugar
– 2 eggs (lightly beaten, room temperature)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 200 g self-raising flour
– 125 ml full-fat milk (room temperature)
– 85 g raspberry jelly crystals
– 1 cup boiling water
– 1 cup cold water
– 120 g desiccated coconut
– 3/4 cup thickened cream
– 2 teaspoons caster sugar
– 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1-Preheat your oven to 180ยฐC (350ยฐF) and lightly spray two patty pan tins to prevent sticking.
2-Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then gradually add the eggs and vanilla extract for a smooth batter base.
3-With the mixer on low, alternately add the flour and milk until just combined, keeping the mixture airy.
4-Spoon the batter evenly into the tins and bake for 15 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
5-Cool the cakes in the pans for 5-10 minutes, then gently twist to release and cool completely on a rack.
6-Trim the cake domes if needed, dip them into the thickened jelly, and roll in desiccated coconut for the signature look.
7-Whip the chantilly cream ingredients until stiff, pipe onto one flat side of a cake, and sandwich with another.
8-Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the jelly soak in and enhance the texture.
