I decided to bake a cake with filling for Easter, but my mother-in-law did not appreciate my idea, she makes classical cakes separately.

The bright Sunday of Christ is very near. What to please the family of a handy mistress with imagination? This year, the traditional Easter cake with raisins has a competitor. The leader of culinary trends in 2024 is a delightful Easter with filling. She has a lot of fans, but also haters. What is the secret to the popularity of this baking? We deal with “So Simple” and cook with a simple recipe.



The other day, a friend sent a video recipe for a panetone muffin with strawberry filling. I'm pretty conservative about Easter baking. Classic kulich on yeast dough surrounded by dyes - what could be more familiar and sweeter to the heart?

I'm not against flying culinary thought in this direction. But the picture I saw seemed like the height of blasphemy. Imagine: in the frame appears a delicate panetone with pink glaze. At the top he placed rosy buttocks of a mastic rabbit. Then the bread is cut, and a thick pink liquid flows out of it. My grandmother would have held her lips in contempt at this point.



But with further cynicism, I was speechless. To show the softness of the dough, women's hands are squeezed and then torn to pieces by the unfortunate cake. The audience in the comments celebrates the skill of the confectioner, and I slowly cover myself with cold sweat. How come? It's holy bread. Is it possible to treat him so unceremoniously and cruelly?

At the sight of this vandalism, my 20-year-old niece of Milan only blithely shrugged. Turns out hipsters don't share our family love of Easter theme. Why didn't I hear from my nagging son-in-law? Misha is a progressive young man and does not want to perform “pagan rituals”. He almost called me and my daughter nymphomaniacs. Kulich with painted eggs, you see, reminds him of something else. They are all wise, and then they are wise.



Anechka, my neighbor, my personal ray of hope in this dark realm, recently invited me for a coffee with cognac. I listened to the heartache of the abuse of the saint. And put it on a plate -- what would you think? A piece of stunning Easter chocolate muffin.

Anya is a pastry chef. On the eve of Easter, she is littered with orders to the throat. This year, everyone wants to taste fashionable cakes with filling. I tried it and just flew away! You're welcome. The main thing is to treat the holy bread with respect.



Easter with stuffing Between the case stole from Ani the recipe for this charm. Based on 6 small cakes with a diameter of 11 cm. I recommend you try it out.

The ingredients

• 500 ml of milk
• 1kg flour
• 2 eggs
• 40g pressed yeast
• 160g sugar
• 10g vanilla sugar
• 100g butter
• 0.25 tsp turmeric
• 100g raisins
• 1 tsp orange peel
• 100-150g "Nutella" per cupcake
• 100g dark chocolate
• 80 ml cream 30-33%
• 20g almond flakes

Preparation of Easter with filling Preparation

1. Our Easter stuffing begins with an opar. Pour slightly heated milk into the bowl, add crushed pressed yeast, 1 tbsp of sugar and stir. Put 8 tbsp flour in the mixture and mix the liquid dough. Cover the bowl with a towel and put it in a warm place for an hour. When the opara rises and swells, add eggs, leftover sugar, vanilla sugar, turmeric, barely warm melted butter and stir well with a corolla.

In several stages, pour into the mixture the remains of sifted flour and mixed dough. First with a spoon, then with your hands (30 minutes on the working surface oiled with sunflower oil) or in a food processor (10-15 minutes). The better it is kneaded, the more lush it will be kulich. Now move the dough into a clean container lubricated with vegetable oil. Cover with food film and leave for 2 hours in a warm place. During this time it will rise 3 times. Then squish it well with dry steamed raisins and orange peel (if desired). It's time to put the dough in forms. Silicone and metal containers are well lubricated with fat. Tear a piece of dough, form a ball and pinch the edges from the bottom. Fill in the form by a third, no more! Hide the raisins in the dough so it doesn't burn.



In the center of each cake with a wooden sword make a hole. Cover the blanks with film and wait until they come up. Beat the yolks with water and gently lubricate the edges of the cakes. Send the blanks to an oven heated to 165 °C for approximately 40 minutes. Record: cull weighing 0.5 kg bake an average of 60 minutes. Now here's the fun part! We'll fill our Easter muffin with stuffing. Make a knife in the middle a hole with a diameter of about 5-6 cm almost to the bottom. Gently get the dough. Put the crust lid down, we'll need it. Fill the cupcake with melted Nutella or another chocolate paste. Use a pastry bag for convenience. Cover the top with a cut crust. For the glaze, pour the pieces of black chocolate with hot cream and stir. Generously lubricate the top of the cake with thick chocolate to hide the incision. Until the chocolate is frozen, you can decorate it with almond flakes on top.
