Caramel Bisscake Wagon Wheels                

 

├ó        Bake some 7cm round biscuits.

├ó        Join two biscuits, both top sides facing in, using Crella Caramel.

├ó         Press biscuits together until the caramel starts to squeeze out the sides.

├ó         Using your finger or spatula, cover the edges with caramel.

 

NB: Put some of the these unfinished bisscakes to one side for use in a different cake.

 

├ó         Submerge into chocolate to coat the entire bisscake.

├ó         Using a soft bristled brush, remove the excess chocolate.

├ó       Set aside for the chocolate to set.

 

The caramel will slowly transfer moisture to the Wagon Wheel.

This will keep them fresh and soft for a long time.

You can wrap them in aluminium foil or cellophane bags so they last even longer.

The more caramel you put in the centre, the softer the bisscake wagon wheels will become, and stay that way longer.

If you refrigerate them it will increase their shelf life considerably.

 

├ó          Using the bisscake that you put aside.

├ó          Roll them in some coconut to cover the caramel around the edges.

├ó          Now you can coat the top in chocolate or fondant and give them a touch of decoration.

├ó          For a children's party, make them smaller and roll in 100's & 1000's.
