Ingredients:

  • 20 bunuelo sticks
  • 300g hazelnut praline
  • 500g whipped cream
  • 1 cocoa sponge cake (cut in half)
  • Chocolate syrup

Cocoa Syrup (for the sponge cake):

  • 30g cognac
  • 100g sugar
  • 2 cups water
  • 40g cocoa powder
  • Mix all the ingredients and boil for 10 minutes.

Directions

Let's start with the cake. Prepare the sponge cake and the syrup. While it cools to be cut in half lengthwise, let's prepare the filling. In a bowl, take 10 bunuelo sticks and melt them (with a spoon or your hands). Add the hazelnut praline and mix well. Add the whipped cream (reserve 4-5 spoons for garnish) and gently fold it in from bottom to top until well combined. Take the sponge cake and cut it in half lengthwise with a large knife. Place one piece on the base and soak it with syrup. Add half of the filling and spread it evenly. Place the second piece of sponge cake on top and soak it with syrup. Add the remaining filling and spread it nicely on top and around the sides. Take the remaining bunuelo sticks and decorate the cake as desired. Use the remaining whipped cream and chocolate syrup for garnish.

Enjoy this delightful bunuelo cake!
