Indulgent lamington upgraded with strawberry jam, white chocolate, and coconut layers.
Ingredients:
225g (1 1/2 cups) plain flour
4.00 gm baking powder
Pinch of salt
6eggs, at room temperature
155g (3/4 cup) caster sugar
50g unsalted butter, melted
40.00 gm warm water
Strawberry jam, to spread
180g white cooking chocolate, chopped
85g (1/3 cup) sour cream
Roasted coconut chips, to coat
200g dark cooking chocolate, chopped
53.60 gm golden syrup
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 180C (160C fan forced). Grease a 20 x 30cm lamington pan and line with baking paper, leaving the paper to overhang on two long sides.
In a bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Add salt. In a separate large bowl, use electric beaters to beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla for about 8 minutes until thick and pale. Sift one-third of the flour mixture over the egg mixture and fold until combined. Repeat with the remaining flour mixture in 2 batches.
Gently pour the melted butter and water along the bowl's edge and gently fold them together. Transfer the mixture into the prepared lamington pan. Bake for 25 minutes until the cake springs back when touched lightly. Let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely. Trim the cake's edges before serving.
Slice the cake in half horizontally. Cover the bottom half with strawberry jam. In a heatproof bowl, mix white chocolate and sour cream. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Let it cool slightly. Use electric beaters to whip until glossy. Spread it over the cut side of the other cake half. Put the two halves together to make a sandwich. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Cut into 15 squares.
Combine dark cooking chocolate, cream, and golden syrup in a small saucepan and melt over low heat, stirring until smooth.
Spread coconut chips on a plate. Dip each cake square in icing using 2 forks, shaking off excess. Coat in coconut and place on a lined tray. Repeat with remaining cake squares, icing, and coconut. Let them sit for 1 hour to set.
