Mini kladdkaka with peanuts
Lovely gooey mini variant of kladdkaka with peanuts.
Kladdkaka is one of the best things there is, and this is a slightly modified version that is perfect for "fika". The result is a compact and sticky cake with a little extra luxury from salty and crunchy peanuts.
Normally, kladdkaka is served with whipped cream, but in this case, I think it's best to eat them as they are with a cup of coffee and some other cookies. I use muffin molds, which can be a bit difficult to handle as the cake tends to stick to the mold, but if you let them cool down completely and store them in the fridge until it's time to serve, it's usually relatively easy to get them out of the mold. Otherwise, you can eat them warm as well, but then you probably have to use a spoon and dig them out of the mold.
For even more luxury, I can imagine that a little caramel sauce drizzled over the cake could be good and give something of a snickers feeling, but it's not something I've tried yet.
The cakes will rise a bit in the oven and then collapse into the compact chocolate mass we call kladdkaka. I bake these for about 10 minutes in the oven, but it can of course vary depending on how sticky you want the cake to be.
If you'd rather make this cake in one large baking tin, that's fine too. Make sure to use a baking tin with a removable edge, which should be buttered and breaded. Also increase the time in the oven by about 5 minutes.
The cakes last a few days in the fridge and can also be frozen with good results.
