Directions
Glen’s Creamy Cake Filling (Mock Cream),This is a really nice filling sandwiched between tiny meringues for serving with coffee or for piping onto cakes. It should be completely smooth with all grains of sugar completely dissolved. To make chocolate filling add 1-2 tablespoons cocoa with the icing sugar.,I just made this lovely creamy filling and I have to say in my well over 55yrs of baking this is the best mock cream recipe I have ever used! Simple ingredients and easy to do. This will certainly be my ‘go to’ recipe from now on. I am using it for filling in a chocolate cake and added a drop of vanilla and about 80 grams of chopped up Crispy Mint Crme chocolate. Yummy! I found I didn’t need all the water. Thank you so much and I highly recommend to all.,I agree with earlier postings, light, delicious and a good base for variety of flavours. My favourites are as is in a layered coffee gateau (Coffee cream covering the top and sides) and with vanilla added to the mix and spread over squished fresh strawberries in between a vanilla cake layers. I always use unsalted butter with a pinch more or less of salt. Always enjoyed. Thank you.
