Cake body:
Cream cheese: 250g
Granulated sugar: 60g
Eggs: 2
Whipped cream: 150ml
Cake flour: 10g
Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon (optional)
Decoration:
Dark chocolate: appropriate amount (for bear face)
Marshmallows: a small amount (for bear ears)
Food coloring: red and green (optional, for Christmas decoration)
Step 1: Make cake batter
Preheat the oven to 200°C, prepare a 6-inch round mold, and line it with baking paper.
After softening the cream cheese at room temperature, stir it with a spatula until smooth.
Add granulated sugar in batches and beat until completely melted.
Add eggs in two batches, stir each time before adding the next one.
Pour in whipped cream, stir well, then sift in cake flour and stir with a spatula until there is no dry powder.
Add vanilla extract according to taste and stir well.
Step 2: Bake the cake
Pour the cake batter into the mold and gently shake the mold to release bubbles.
Place in a preheated oven and bake at 200°C for 30 minutes. Remove when the surface is golden and slightly burnt.
After the cake cools to room temperature, place it in the refrigerator for more than 4 hours to set.
Step 3: Decorate the bear shape
Melt the dark chocolate and put it into a piping bag to draw the eyes, nose and mouth of the bear.
Cut an appropriate amount of marshmallows to make bear ears and fix them on the surface of the cake.
If you want to add a Christmas atmosphere, you can use food coloring to mix red and green chocolate and draw some Christmas hats or tree decorations.
Step 4: Present and enjoy
Place the finished bear Basque cake on a Christmas-themed plate and enjoy it with family and friends. It is not only a delicious dessert, but also a transmission of love!
