Description
A miniature vanilla sponge cake layered with a velvety Oreo-infused buttercream, perfect for an intimate celebration or a thoughtful gift. This recipe focuses on achieving a light, airy crumb and a smooth, professional finish that melts in your mouth.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs (room temperature)
- 132g granulated sugar
- 152g all-purpose flour
- Liquid vanilla
- 250g buttercream preparation
- 250g water
- 300g pommade butter
- Oreo flavoring
Instructions
- Whisk the eggs and sugar for 8 to 10 minutes until the mixture is thick, pale, and tripled in volume, adding vanilla at the end.
- Carefully sift the flour over the egg mixture and fold it in gently using a spatula until just combined.
- Pour the batter into prepared tins and bake until golden and the center springs back, then cool completely on a wire rack.
- Whisk the buttercream preparation with water until smooth, then gradually beat in the soft pommade butter and Oreo flavoring until glossy.
- Slice the cakes into layers, frost with Oreo buttercream, apply a crumb coat, chill for 30 minutes, and finish with a final layer of frosting.
Notes
To ensure a moist sponge, consider lightly brushing each layer with a simple syrup before frosting. It is vital that your butter is soft but not melted to achieve a silk-like buttercream consistency without any lumps.
