Method
White Christmas Bundt Cake
- Grease and line the base of a 22cm diameter (top) round Bundt tin.
- Melt Copha and chocolate in a large heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Cool slightly.
- Add all ingredients to Copha mixture and mix well.
- Working quickly, spoon into prepared tin, pressing down firmly as you go. Smooth top. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until set.
Chocolate Topping
- Combine Copha and chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water, stir until melted. Cool to room temperature.
- Pour over the cake using a spoon once it is ready on your serving dish of choice, such as a cake stand. While still a little wet, garnish with freeze-dried strawberries.
- Fill with Rafaello balls and finish decorating with white chocolate stars. Chilli until ready to serve.
- Remove the surprise cake from the refrigerator 30 minutes before serving.
Tips & Hints:
- Melt Copha and chocolate together in the microwave on High for 30 second bursts. Stir between heating.
- We used Frisp brand freeze-dried strawberries which are available at Woolworths.
- To help remove cake from the tin, rub the base and sides with a cloth dipped in hot water.
- Chocolate topping must have cooled and thickened before pouring over cake.
- Fill the Surprise cake centre with your favourite Christmas sweets and treats.
- Store cake in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Bring to room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
