How to Make Black Sesame Lamingtons

Black Sesame Lamingtons is a nice flavor twist on the traditional Lamington.  Instead of dipping the cake in chocolate it’s replaced with a black sesame laced white chocolate and covered with black sesame seeds and coconut. 
Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time5 minutes
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: Australian, Japanese
Servings: 6 Portions

Ingredients

  • 4-6 Two Inch Any Shape Stale Cake Must Be Frozen!
  • ¼ Cup White Chocolate
  • 1 Tablespoon Black Sesame Paste
  • 1 Tablespoon Coconut Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Black Sesame Milk
  • 1 Cup Desiccated Coconut
  • ¼ Cup Black Sesame Seeds

Instructions

  • Melt the chocolate, paste, coconut oil and milk in a sauce pan. Turn the heat to low and stir until nice and smooth. About 5 minutes.
  • In a shallow bowl mix together the desiccated coconut and black sesame seeds.
  • Put a wire rack on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper.
  • Take the cake out of the freezer and dip it into the black sesame chocolate mixture. Coat the cake all over. Then dip it into the desiccated coconut/black sesame seed mixture.
  • Place on the wire rack to set.
  • Leave to chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Notes

Use any stale vanilla cake you have.  If you do decide to make a vanilla cake from scratch, freeze the cake first before dipping.  Less crumbs, less mess!
I used Black Sesame Milk from Three Trees Organics, but you can use any milk to thin out the white chocolate mixture.
