Ooh, I got big fat chestnuts from Ibaraki! A real treat! Chestnut rice is a solid classic, but I love that my mind’s drifting to dessert—let’s indulge in the autumnal vibe and happily getting fat! 😄 I’m thinking of something sweet to make with those chestnuts. Here’s a quick dive into a decadent chestnut dessert idea, plus some thoughts to spark your creativity.
Chestnut Dessert Idea: Chestnut Cake
This chestnut cake is a dreamy, creamy dessert that screams autumn with its rich chestnut flavor. It’s basically a mountain of chestnut puree piled on a sweet base. Here’s a simple version to try with Ibaraki chestnuts:
Quick Chestnut Cake Recipe
Ingredients (for ~4 servings):
Prep the Chestnuts: If using fresh chestnuts, score an “X” on the flat side, boil for 20 minutes, then peel off the shell and inner skin. (Pro tip: Ibaraki chestnuts are often sweet, so taste one to gauge sugar needs!)
Put 4 egg whites in a bowl
Add 75g white sugar mix with a hand mixer until fluffy and foamy
In another bowl, add 4 egg yolks
Add 75g white sugar mix with a hand mixer until creamy
then Add 100ml vegetable oil
Add 100ml milk
mix with hand mixer until blended
Add 200-250g of cooked and peeled chestnuts into a food processor and process until breadcrumb consistency
Add Chestnut crumbs to the bowl of egg yolks
Add 100g of all-purpose flour
Add 2 teaspoons of baking powder and mix with hand mixer until incorporated.
Add a spoon of the egg white mix to the egg yolk, chestnut mix and stir in with a spatula
continue this process until all the egg white foam mix is incorporated.
Prepare a 20-24cm cake pan, with a circle of baking paper on the bottom. Spoon in the mixture
and bake in the oven on the middle shelf at 180/C for 40 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool.
Dust with powdered sugar or sprinkle crushed chestnuts for crunch. Serve immediately and revel in the autumn decadence!
Why It’s Perfect for Autumn
Rich & Cozy: Chestnuts have that nutty, earthy sweetness that pairs perfectly with the crisp fall air.
Indulgent: The creamy texture makes it feel like a hug in dessert form—ideal for “happily getting fat” season.
Versatile: You can tweak it with chocolate shavings, candied chestnuts, or even a drizzle of maple syrup for extra autumn vibes.
Fun Fact About Ibaraki Chestnuts
Ibaraki Prefecture is known for its large, sweet chestnuts, especially varieties like Takanotsume. They’re perfect for desserts because they’re naturally sugary and have a creamy texture when cooked. If you’ve got a big batch, you could also roast a few with a sprinkle of salt for a snack to balance the sweet stuff.
So, what’s the recipe you found? And are you leaning toward something super rich or a lighter dessert to follow your chestnut rice feast? Let’s keep the autumn food love going! 🍂
