COFFEE CUP CAKES!

  

Assuming that you know me a day or two, I'm sure you know I'm a big fan of challenges -

If this is life in general and in particular the kitchen, mainly cold when it comes to particularly creative challenges. 
been given this challenge Barack surf waves, and is written as follows:

Short chain investigation, I discovered that real edible coffee cups, designed for the Italian coffee giant LavAzza-

Admit that it's a great idea!

These cute cups dough still not sold substantially cafes,

But until they reach the market, I decided to accept the challenge of the waves, and produce my home version.

After reflection and deliberation about the best way to create dough cups,

I decided to be the most simple and easy to bake them in individual baking cups standard -

Just like baking a tart crust, only higher walls.

My biggest concern was my spoiled dough covered easily cracking or Irtbo cream in them

So I decided to bake them twice just like they do in preparing Biscotti:

Ie after baked and cooled completely, they where another short drying oven.

I baked the dough handles separately and glued to the glass with caramel, this time I received a citation for the function assignment -

Handle firmly stuck to the glass, and even allowed to hold it like a real cup :)

The cute glasses filled with coffee cream - rich brown sugar and decorated with cream and white chocolate Baileys ... Iammmm!

The result came out delicious in my opinion, especially the insanely cute

Waves - I hope you'll love!

Start preparing two cup filling creams asap:

First cooked cream with white chocolate and some Baileys or coffee liqueur -

Ganache is basically a type of very thin Snktzif delicious whipped cream later.

Second cream coffee cream brown sugar sweetness and added a special flavor.

I made a lot of coffee cream for intense flavor and fine - those who love bold coffee flavor can reduce the quantity.

When two creams idling refrigerator, cutting to the chase for which we gathered - Preparing a cup of coffee.

Prepare crispy dough enriched with nuts, and watch with the cooler inside of the small cups for baking.

Balance prepare dough rolls, will any small roll crescent shape, and design looking glass handle. After baking 

prepare caramel goop to help the handle cup.

And this lovely result obtained -

Eating a cup of coffee and cute!

After filling creams, looks like ...

Two coffee please!

So you come to me for coffee and cake?

  

Just before the warning light recipe -

Since still very hot these days, and it's a nightmare to work with a slightly crispy dough

Anyone who wants to make the dessert peace of mind and without hairs plucked,

Welcome to wait a little bit for it to cool ...
