By the end of the 90s, a recipe for the Snickers cake appeared with the name of popular bars that were so tasty for everyone, there is nothing to compare.

There are still bars, but we are already experienced with a variety of confectionery, and you can only please yourself with something unusual.

Cutaway ready-made Snickers cake

The presented cake is prepared very simply, you can bake it for family gatherings over tea. And if you show your imagination with regard to decoration, then the dessert will become a real decoration on the festive table.

The word Snickers, which has become a brand name for a long time, we know everything from delicious bars with nougat, nuts (fried peanuts), caramel under chocolate. From English the word is translated as "chuckle" or "giggle".

In 1923, the world saw the first Snickers bar in the United States, and it was made by a pastry chef named Frank Mars. The start of mass production took place only in 1930. And, it is noteworthy that in some countries (Ireland, Isle of Man and Great Britain) the chocolate product went on sale under a different name, but with the same content until 1990. Later, the company decided to make the brand uniform all over the world, and changed its name to Snickers.

The name of the sweet bar was not a random choice - it is the name of the horse of the Mars family, which died literally the day before the launch of the product. The name of the beloved horse has been forever immortalized by a chocolate known throughout the world.

How to make Snickers cake at home

First, let's take a biscuit, which will need to be divided lengthwise into a couple of parts to get two cakes.

Fried must be chopped. Grinding can be done in a blender or in a simple bag using a rolling pin. The size of the particles can be different, do it according to your own taste: smaller or larger.

Now you can start assembling the cake:

The second (upper) sponge cake can be separately spread with cream with nuts before laying, and laid on. But in reality, it will only turn out either to break the biscuit, or to lay it crookedly. So it is better to do everything in turn and put it under a small press for soaking for a couple of hours in the refrigerator.

We offer to bake a Snickers cake with meringue at home, which in terms of the combination of components reminds everyone of the well-known imported bar. For the base of the dessert, we will use the popular "chocolate on boiling water" biscuit, which is a porous wet crumb with a rich chocolate color and taste. In addition to meringue, we use butter cream with boiled condensed milk and, of course, the most important ingredient without which it is impossible to imagine a real Snickers - fried peanuts.

For convenience, cake preparation can be divided into 2 days. For example, today make a meringue, which takes up most of the time, and tomorrow bake a biscuit, whip the cream and collect the dessert. So, let's get to work and prepare the Snickers cake according to the recipe with the photo step by step.

How to make a meringue Snickers cake

1. We start with a meringue. Beat the cooled egg whites until a soft white foam is obtained. Gradually add sugar, without stopping to work with a mixer. We seek to obtain a thickened lush mass. Correctly whipped whites must remain perfectly still when tilting / turning the crockery.
   
2. Draw a circle on the parchment - draw a pencil around a plate or any shape with a diameter of 22 cm. Lubricate the paper with a small piece of butter, and then apply the whipped egg whites. We distribute the mass in an even layer, without going beyond the boundaries of the drawn circle.
   
3. We bake the meringues at a temperature of 110-120 degrees for 2-2.5 hours, then cool completely.

4. Cooking a sponge cake "chocolate on boiling water". Sift flour with cocoa powder and baking powder, mix with vanilla and regular sugar.
   
5. Beat a fresh egg in another bowl until a copious amount of foam is obtained. Pour milk and refined vegetable oil into the egg mass, beat slightly.
   
6. In parts (3-4 passes) add the dry mixture to the liquid ingredients, each time stirring the mass with a mixer until smooth. As a result, we get a fairly thick chocolate dough.
   
7. Pour in boiling water and immediately beat the mixture with a mixer. The mass will become quite liquid, and bubbles will appear on its surface.
   
8. Pour the dough into a 22 cm diameter pan greased with butter (the biscuit and meringue should be the same size). We send it to an oven heated to 180 degrees for 40-50 minutes. To check readiness, immerse a skewer / toothpick in the middle of the crumb. If the stick comes out dry, without residues of wet dough, the biscuit is ready.
   
9. Having completely cooled the baking, cut it lengthwise into two layers of the same thickness.

10. To assemble the cake, we will prepare the peanuts, namely, lightly fry it and peel it (if you bought ready-made roasted peanuts, skip these steps). Select a large skillet and lay out the peanuts in one layer. Stirring occasionally, keep on medium heat for about 10 minutes.
    
11. Having cooled and peeled off, load the roasted peanuts into the blender bowl. It is not necessary to achieve very small pieces - 2-3 turns of the knife will be enough. You can do without a blender altogether by placing peanuts in a tight bag and tapping on top with a rolling pin.
    
12. For the cream, beat the softened butter until fluffy. We work with a mixer for 1-2 minutes.
    
13. Add boiled condensed milk to the butter and beat the mass until smooth.

14. Place one chocolate crust on a large plate. For impregnation, dilute the heavy cream with water and pour the base of the cake evenly. Instead of cream, you can use any syrup or use a mixture of coffee and cognac / rum.
    
15. Set aside about a fourth of the butter cream to coat the sides of the cake. Divide the rest in half and apply one part to the bottom cake, distributing it evenly.
    
16. Put part of the peanuts on the cream layer.
    
17. Next, lay the meringue. Carefully, trying not to damage the fragile crust, distribute the second part of the cream. Sprinkle with peanuts.
    
18. We spread the second biscuit cake, pour with impregnation. If the meringue protrudes beyond the borders of the cake, carefully cut off the excess part with a knife. Lubricate the sides of the dessert with the remnants of the cream, level it with a culinary spatula.
    

    How to make snickers chocolate ganache

19. To make our "Snickers" as "chocolate" as possible, cover it with a thick layer of ganache. To do this, chop the chocolate bars with a knife into small pieces, put them in a deep bowl.
    
20. We heat the heavy cream until hot, pour it into the chocolate "shards".
    
21. Immediately begin to actively stir the mass with a whisk. We achieve complete melting of the chocolate fragments and obtaining a homogeneous composition, we cool the finished mixture. If the mass turned out to be liquid, put the ganache in the refrigerator until it thickens and creamy.
    
22. Apply the thick chocolate composition in a generous layer to the surface and sides of the cake. We level it with a spatula. Put the rest of the peanuts on the surface of the cake as a decoration.
    
23. Allowing the cake to soak for 3-4 hours in the refrigerator, cut into portions and serve.

But Snickers cake recipe with a photo step by step, it seems to me, is described in great detail, and it will not be difficult to slightly change the ingredients.

Ingredients:

For biscuit cakes:

• Boiling water - 200 ml;
• Cocoa powder - 6 tablespoons;
• Flour - 400 g;
• Granulated sugar - 400 g;
• Egg - 2 pcs;
• Milk - 300 ml;
• Baking powder -5 tsp;
• Vanilla sugar -3 tsp;
• Vegetable oil - 4 tbsp. l.

For cream cheese:

• Creamy curd cheese - 300 g;
• Powdered sugar - 80 g;
• Cream, 30% fat - 40 ml.

For homemade caramel:

• Cream with a fat content of 30% - 100 ml;
• Granulated sugar - 150 g;
• Butter - 60 g;
• Salt - 1 pinch

For the chocolate ganache:

• Milk chocolate - 200 g;
• Cream - 200 ml.

It turns out that the beloved by many chocolate bar with sticky nougat and peanut filling has an analogue in the form of baked goods. Yes, yes, a cake with an incredibly similar taste and a name similar to the famous chocolate bar has long won the hearts of those with a sweet tooth.

Interestingly, the correct recipe for the Snickers cake, in principle, does not exist. There are so many variations that the eyes run up: it is made with caramel, with glaze, with condensed milk and even with meringue.

Considering that this ingredient is absent in the chocolate of the same name, we can do without it. For the base, you can use chocolate-biscuit cakes prepared according to your favorite recipe, but the ideal option would be to use the so-called "chocolate on boiling water" biscuit.

Porous, slightly damp cakes in butter with a rich chocolate color and taste are perfect for making an airy Snickers cake.

Homemade salted caramel and delicate cream cheese will be used for impregnation. Of course, the latter can be bought ready-made, but why not try to cook it yourself at home? Moreover, a step-by-step recipe for Snickers cake with a photo will help you do everything right.

Let's make a reservation right away that the process of preparing a dessert is not quick. Some housewives even prefer to divide it into several stages, for example, they make peanut filling in advance and caramelize nuts. Do as you like, but remember that the result is worth it.

And even if you spend a few days creating this culinary masterpiece, your efforts will pay off in full. After all, it is really difficult to find something tastier than Snickers cake. How can you resist such a tempting nutty chocolate treat?

Cooking biscuit cakes

So, having prepared the necessary ingredients, you can start baking biscuit cakes. For the cake, you need 3-4 pieces of them, so it is better to prepare two medium biscuits, which can then be cut in half. The dough for "Snickers" cake according to the classic recipe for "chocolate on boiling water" biscuit is prepared as follows:

1. Flour is sieved with cocoa powder and baking powder and mixed with vanilla and plain sugar.
2. The eggs are beaten with a mixer until a copious amount of foam is obtained.
3. Milk and vegetable oil are added to the egg mass and all the ingredients are whipped again.
4. Gradually, the dry mixture is added to the liquid mass. A mixer is also used for mixing, which makes it easy to obtain a thick, uniform in consistency dough with a rich chocolate shade.
5. Finally, boiling water is added to it, and the mass is beaten again with a mixer until bubbles appear.
6. Half of the dough is poured into a pre-oiled mold and sent to the oven. At a temperature of 180 °, baked goods should stand in the oven for 40-50 minutes.
7. The second cake is baked in the same way.

A completely cooled biscuit is cut in half. As a result, we have before us four cakes of the same thickness.

How to make filling and impregnation?

The next step is preparing the peanut filling for the Snickers cake.

1. Fry the peanuts in a large skillet. It is enough to keep the nuts on the fire for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. The cooled peanuts without husks are placed in a blender bowl, where they are ground for 10-15 seconds. It is not necessary to chop the nuts strongly, therefore, in the absence of a blender, it is quite possible to do with a rolling pin, kneading them in a plastic bag.

Alternatively, you can use ready-made salted peanuts for the Snickers cake, without wasting time roasting and peeling them. The original combination of sweet cream and salted nuts will appeal to many.

Making a soft, viscous caramel like in a Snickers bar at home is also quite simple.

1. Heat the cream on the stove or in the microwave.
2. Pour sugar into a saucepan with a thick bottom and put on the fire to heat. When you see that the process has begun, begin to stir it vigorously with a wooden or silicone spatula, trying not to touch the edges of the pan. If sugar solidifies on them, then the mass will turn out to be lumps. Fully melted sugar takes on a beautiful amber hue.
3. Add butter, cut into pieces, to the melted sugar and stir again actively.
4. Add warmed cream to the sweet mass and place everything again with a spatula. If lumps form, do not worry: then the caramel can be filtered through a strainer.
5. Remove the homogeneous mixture from the stove and add a pinch of salt.

Homemade caramel can be used not only for soaking the cake, it is ideal for other baked goods as well. The finished caramel is stored in the refrigerator for about a month, so you can safely make it with a margin, proportionally increasing the amount of ingredients.

Cream cheese or cream cheese cream is another great soak that can be prepared quickly and with just three ingredients. True, it is important to observe the temperature regime: the cream should be at room temperature, but the curd cheese, on the contrary, must be chilled. And one more thing: granulated sugar is not suitable for cream cheese, use only powdered sugar, fortunately, making it is not at all difficult if you have a blender.

1. Whisk the cream on medium speed for 1 to 2 minutes.
2. Add the icing sugar and continue beating for a while.
3. Without turning off the mixer, gradually add cheese to the mass and beat for another 4-5 minutes.
4. Refrigerate the resulting cream.

We collect the cake

Let's start forming the cake.

1. On a round dish we put one chocolate base-base of the future Snickers cake and evenly on it a third of the resulting homemade caramel.
2. Put 2/3 of the peanuts on the cream and cover everything with the second cake.
3. Gently distribute the cream cheese over it and place the third cake layer.
4. We repeat the impregnation as for the first cake, greasing the biscuit with caramel.
5. Place the last crust and pour over the Snickers cake with thick milk chocolate ganache.

The latter is prepared very simply: in a bowl, chopped chocolate bars are combined with hot cream, after which the ingredients are well mixed until a homogeneous mass of creamy consistency is obtained.

We use the remains of peanuts to decorate the Snickers cake, as in the photo. We put the finished chocolate peanut dessert in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours so that it is well saturated. Enjoy your tea!

Snickers cake is a recipe that appeared in the 90s, when these bars were popular. True, I don't know where the girls took the cream back then, maybe the village ones. In general, if you like chocolate cakes, then try it. I can say that customers are always happy with this cake. After all, there are two creams - the necessary whipped cream and boiled condensed milk.

They say that you can cook it with sour cream, but I have never tried it.

Snickers cake - classic recipe

1. Prepare a chocolate sponge cake. I make a 24 cm shape from 8 eggs, but this is so that the top can be cut evenly. It is possible from seven.

Turn on the oven in advance. Separate 8 whites from yolks. Beat the whites into a strong foam, about 10 minutes, so that they do not fall out of the cup when turning. Then, while whisking, gradually add 1 and 1/3 cups of sugar. Beat the yolks for a couple of minutes to expand and brighten. Sift 1 and 1/3 cups of flour for squirrels. Pour the yolks there and sift 3-4 tablespoons of cocoa. Stir with a spatula or spoon from edges to center from bottom to top. Place in a paper-lined mold. Bake in an oven preheated to 190 degrees for about 30 minutes, check with a skewer. Step-by-step recipe for chocolate biscuit.

2. Boil the impregnation syrup. Mix 70 grams of sugar and 70 ml of water, let it boil for about five minutes. Cool to room temperature and you can flavor, for example add 10 ml of brandy. Read step by step on how to cook syrup.

3. If you do not have roasted peanuts, put them in a hot oven for 10 minutes to brown them. Then chop, preferably with a knife, into large pieces. Mix with boiled condensed milk, and not with a mixer, but with a spoon. If you want a thick cream, then beat the condensed milk, I don't even recommend it with butter, it becomes more liquid from this. If you collect in the form and put in the refrigerator (so the condensed milk will not run out), then you can take 150 grams of butter, beat, and then add a jar of boiled condensed milk.

4. Whisk 500 ml of cream until soft peaks, add 50 g of powder or 3 tablespoons of sugar. You can beat a little more, but be careful, the main thing is not to interrupt. Read about how to whip cream.

Homemade Snickers cake

I have a curly cake, don't be surprised. But the principle is the same.

1. Cut the biscuit into 3-4 cakes. How to cut a biscuit into cakes with a knife, read.
2. Sprinkle the sponge cake with syrup.

3. Apply a cream of boiled condensed milk. Add the next cake. Apply cream cream. (There are already several cakes in the photo). Etc.

If you cut a biscuit into 3 cakes, then usually I put condensed milk cream on the first cake and cream on the second. If for 4 cakes, then usually I put cream on the bottom cake, on the second cream from condensed milk and on the third again from cream. But you can also double condensed milk, once cream. Then you will need more cream, or smear it thinner) My entire can of condensed milk is spent on lubricating one cake with a diameter of 24 cm.

4. If you do not decorate, for example, with mastic or cream, then fill the cake with icing. The simplest is 60 gr. melt chocolate with 60 gr. oils. Then simply pour this over the cake, flatten on top with a knife, helping the frosting to drain around the edges. Step by step about glaze and.

It is also great to pour ganache on the cake, leaving picturesque drips on the sides (the cake should be even or even out a little with one of the creams.) For ganache, take 100 grams of cream, and 200 grams of chocolate (probably enough and half as much to try, out of this amount thick layer turned out), cut the chocolate into small pieces and put in the cream, heat in the microwave until the chocolate dissolves. Step by step about ganache. Then pour the whole ganache onto the cake, and smooth it out a little with a spatula or knife, making it drip a little on the sides. Just fit the chocolate to the edges of the cake so that the entire top is covered and the ganache drips randomly here and there.
