Chestnut Cream Cake Recipe

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… 😉
