第一个分享：
四层皮纳塔蛋糕!
PI?ATA CAKE!
如你所知，我们是混血姐妹。但我们身上有多少种血统你知道吗？五种！墨西哥、印第安、泰国、意大利和中国血统！是的，我们有中国（海南）血统哦！因为我们身上流淌着那么多不同的血液，所以我们能更好地理解不同的文化及不同种族的传统。所以在今天的食谱中，我们要一起来开拓一下墨西哥文化！我们的母亲是墨西哥人，每年我们生日的时候，她都会为我们举办生日聚会。在聚会上，她会通过皮纳塔跟我们分享墨西哥文化。
As you know, we are mixed blood sisters. What mix exactly you may ask? We actually are 5 different ethnicities! These five are: Mexican, Indian, Thai, Italian and Chinese! Yes, Chinese! (from Hainan) So growing up with such a mix of races allowed us to understand many different cultures and traditions. So for todays recipe we will explore our Mexican culture. Our mother is Mexican and every year for our birthday she would throw a birthday party for us. During our birthday party she shared her Mexican culture with us by having a “pi?ata.”
关于皮纳塔 ABOUT PI?ATAS
所以，今天我们要做的，就是皮纳塔蛋糕。在做这个蛋糕之前，我们先来回答几个关于皮纳塔是什么：
So, today we are making a PI?ATA cake…but before we make this cake let’s answer some questions you may have about what a pi?ata actually is:
1. 那，什么是皮纳塔？？
So, what exactly is a pi?ata??
N&J: 皮纳塔是用彩色纸做的装着很多玩具和糖果的容器。他是墨西哥生日传统，盛传墨西哥，美国和欧洲。皮纳塔可以是很多种形状的，但是最普遍的是9角星或者是驴子形状的。
A pi?ata is a container made of colorful papier-maché and filled with lots of toys and candies. It is a Mexican birthday tradition that is used all over Mexico, America and Europe. The pi?ata can be many different shapes, but the most common is a nine-pointed star or a donkey.
2. 怎么玩皮纳塔呢？
How do pi?atas work?
N&J: 把皮纳塔吊起来离地面1.8米高。把准备要敲打皮纳塔的人的眼睛蒙蔽起来，然后大概把皮纳塔转5圈，让他们觉得有点晕眩，哈哈！然后，游戏开始了！
Tie the pi?ata up so that it is around 1.8m off the ground. Blindfold the person who will hit the pi?ata and spin them around 5 times, so they are a bit dizzy. Then…let the game begin!!
在一分钟之内尽量敲打皮纳塔多次。他们的目标是把皮纳塔敲破为止，直到糖果散满地！糖果洒满地后大家可以跑过来收集糖果哦！
The person will try to hit the pi?ata as many times as they can for 1 minute. Their goal is to hit the pi?ata until it breaks and the candy falls out! Once it is full broken then everyone can run to collect the candies!
我们来瞧瞧Nadia去年在美国怎么在她生日的时候敲打皮纳塔的！哈哈！她跟其他人不一样，几乎没有打中哦！
Let’s see Nadia hit a pi?ata at her birthday party last year in America!haha She barely made a dent!!
来来来！我们说了“皮纳塔”的概念然后把它做成蛋糕吧！当你切蛋糕的时候，所有糖果从里面流出来就像皮纳塔一样哦！是不是很好酷？！
So, we are taking the concept of a “pi?ata” and making it into a cake!! When you cut this cake all the candies will fall out just like a pi?ata! How cool right??
我们开始做吧！
Let's get started!

奶油糖霜部分 FUDGE FROSTING
1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
4 and 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup natural unsweetened or dutch-process cocoa powder
1/2 cup milk
1 Tablespoon light corn syrup

230g无盐黄油（室温）
540g细砂糖
65g天然无糖可可粉
120ml牛奶
8g香草精
0.7g盐
225g巧克力豆和彩针
DIRECTIONS 步骤
首先做蛋糕 MAKE THE CAKE
STEP 1: 将烤箱预热至177°C.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
STEP 2: 因为我们要做的是一个4层的蛋糕，所以必须用到活底蛋糕模。
Since this is a 4-layer cake, you will need to use a SPRINGFORM CAKE PAN.
沿着蛋糕模的形状大小剪裁烘焙纸。用对烘焙纸和蛋糕模非常重要！我们要用到的4个20cm的活底蛋糕模。（如果你的烤箱跟我的一样小，那就重复用20cm的蛋糕模好了，每次使用都要换烘焙纸。）
Cut out the parchment paper to fit into the bottom of the springform cake pan. Using the correct cake pan and parchment paper is very important! We will need to use 4, 8-inch springform cake pans. (If your baking oven is very small, like mine, just reuse 1, 8-inch springform cake pan, changing the parchment paper after baking each cake.)
STEP 3: 将面粉、发酵粉、小苏打和盐放入一个大碗中搅拌备用.
Whisk the flour (sifted), baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
STEP 4: 用搅拌机高速搅拌黄油1分钟至其变得润滑细腻
Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on high speed until smooth and creamy - about 1 minute.
STEP 5: 加入糖后再高速搅拌满5分钟，直到完全搅拌好。
Add the sugar and beat on high speed for 5 full minutes until creamed together fairly well.
STEP 6: 用中速搅拌，加入一个鸡蛋，搅拌好后再加入下一个鸡蛋，要加3个鸡蛋。
On medium-high speed, add 1 WHOLE egg at a time, beating well after each addition until all 3 WHOLE eggs are mixed in.
然后，再将蛋黄一个一个地加入，总共要加4个蛋黄。
Then, repeat with each EGG YOLK until all 4 egg yolks are mixed in.
最后加入香草精。
Beat in the vanilla extract.
STEP 7: 用低速搅拌，依照以下步骤一步一步进行：
With the mixer on low speed, follow this order:
1. 加入1/3的干配料 。
Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients.
2. 加入一半的白脱牛奶。
Then 1/2 of the buttermilk.
3. 再加入1/3的干配料。
Next add another 1/3 of the dry ingredients.
4. 将刚才剩下的一半白脱牛奶也加进去。
Then second half of the buttermilk.
5. 加入最后那1/3的干配料。
Last add the last third of the dry ingredients
加料前一定用确认好之前的已经搅拌好了。切忌过度搅拌面糊！面糊一定要润滑、柔软、略稠！
Make sure to mix each addition just until incorporated. Do not overmix this batter! The batter will be smooth, velvety, and slightly thick!
STEP 8: 在每个烤盘上均匀地将面糊放上去。烘烤25分钟直到烤好蛋糕。(用牙签刺一下蛋糕看烤好与否。如果牙签是干净的，就说明蛋糕烤好了。)
Spoon/pour batter evenly into each cake pan. Bake for around 25 minutes or until the cakes are baked through. (To test if it’s done, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, it is done.)
将烤盘放在冷凉架上待蛋糕完全冷却。在抹奶油糖霜前，一定要确保蛋糕已经完全冷却了。
Allow cakes to cool completely in the pans set on a wire rack. The cakes must be completely cool before frosting and assembling.
奶油糖霜 MAKE THE FROSTING
STEP 1: 高速搅拌黄油4分钟至呈白色、光滑细腻。
Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on high speed until pale, smooth, and creamy - about 4 full minutes.
STEP 2: 将细砂糖和可可粉过筛。
Sift the confectioners' sugar and cocoa together.
STEP 3: 低速搅拌时，慢慢将砂糖和可可粉撒进去。
On low speed, gradually add the sugar/cocoa mixture.
然后再依次加入牛奶
Followed by the milk
玉米糖浆
corn syrup
香草
vanilla extract
和盐。搅拌1分钟。
and salt. Beat for 1 minute.
将搅拌机调至中速搅拌3分钟。如果糖霜太粘稠了，可以加入牛奶。
Turn the mixer up to medium-high speed and beat for 3 full minutes. If the frosting is too thick, add a splash more of milk.
组装皮纳塔蛋糕 ASSEMBLE THE CAKE
STEP 1: 用一个7-8cm的圆形饼干模具将其中两层蛋糕中间切洞。或者，你也可以用一张烘焙纸做形状参考，用尖刀来切这个洞。
Grab a 3 inch circle cookie cutter and cut a hole into two of the cake layers. Alternatively, you can cut a piece of parchment paper that size and use a sharp knife to trace/cut the holes.
STEP 2: 将一层完整的蛋糕放在盘子上。用抹刀或刀在蛋糕表层抹上糖霜.
Place one of the whole cakes on a cake stand or serving plate. Use an offset spatula or knife to frost the top of the cake.
STEP 3: 然后再将刚才切好洞的那层蛋糕放上去。在蛋糕表层和洞里抹上糖霜。
Then place one of the cut/holed cakes on top and frost the top and inside the cavity.
STEP 4: 将另一层带洞的蛋糕放上去，将其表层和洞里都抹上糖霜。
Place the other cut/holed cake on top and, once again, frost the top and inside the cavity.
STEP 5: 用巧克力豆和糖将洞填满。
Fill the cavity with candies all the way up to the top.
STEP 6: 用最后一层完整的蛋糕封顶。照自己的喜欢在蛋糕上抹上糖霜和糖装饰一下。我喜欢用糖针！
Place the last whole cake on top and frost the top and sides of the entire cake. Decorate with frosting and additional candies however you'd like.
切片好好享用吧！
Slice, serve, enjoy!
YOU DID IT!! And what a beautiful cake it is right?? Perfect for a loved one or a holiday party! Impress your friends and coworkers with this cake! :D
你成功了！多漂亮的一个蛋糕啊！给你爱的那个他/她或者拿去参加聚会吧！一定会让你的同事朋友大吃一惊的！
只需两片蛋糕，你就能做出一个迷你皮纳塔啦！
You can even make a mini-pi?ata cake with the 2 pieces you cut out of the cake!haha
好啦，接下来是幕后的故事：我做这款蛋糕经历了很多困难，但是由于我对它的热爱，始终不曾放弃！第一次做这个蛋糕的时候真的是一团糟。蛋糕烤得不平整还弄得四分五裂的（因为我没有用活底蛋糕模，也没有做好正确的烘焙纸尺寸），所以当我把它们叠起来的时候，蛋糕就完全塌掉了！我当时非常难过，因为我花了那么多时间，更重要的是我很想跟你们一起分享这个蛋糕！几周后，我重拾勇气并决定再次尝试，这一次一定要成功，如你所见，我真的做到了！
Okay, truth time: This cake was really a labor of love. The first time I made this cake I totally messed it up. The cakes were all uneven and breaking apart (because I didn’t use a springform pan and didn’t cut out the parchment paper to fit the pan exactly) and so when I placed them on top of each other the cake was lop-sided and just fell apart! I was so sad because I spent so many hours on it and really wanted to share this beautiful cake with you all! Thus, after a few weeks I got up the courage and decided to try it out once again, making sure to do them correctly…and voila! As you can see above, I succeeded!!
我想告诉大家的是，永远都不用轻言放弃，一定要尽自己最大的努力！谁都不会做什么事情都能一次就成功，甚至第二次、第三次都会失败，但是请相信我，在你一遍又一遍地尝试以后，你一定会越做越好！
This is why I want to stress to you to never give up, keep on trying and practicing as much as you can! You’ll almost never do it perfect the first time, or even the second or third time, but after enough practice and diligence you can only get better, trust me!
如果你尝试了我们的食谱的话，请一定要让我们知道哦！我们随时准备回答你们的任何问题，我们永远是你们的加油站！
