Some time ago, I made a big pot of homemade chestnut cream, and as I had some left over, I decided to try my hand at a super gourmet chestnut cream cake recipe.
My cake doesn’t look very big in the photos because I ran out of flour, but don’t worry, I’ve adjusted the quantities to make an even bigger cake ;-).
You’ll see, the recipe is very easy to make, and if you’re lucky enough to have a KitchenAid stand mixer, it’s even easier, as it does all the work.
For even more gourmet pleasure, or to serve it at the end-of-year festivities, you can also add a few pieces of marrons glacés inside and decorate it to give it the appearance of a Yule log.
Even better!
Simply cut it lengthwise into 2 and insert a layer of chestnut cream inside.
Mmmmmhhh, I can’t wait to make it again… 😉

If you’re looking for a great stand mixer, I recommend mine from KitchenAid which I’ve had for several years and use weekly.
It really is the best friend of those who love baking! There are also many other colors, but I really like this one (coral) which lights up my kitchen.
