|                               ;; inserting the first electric { with
|                               ;; behavior as customized with cc-mode
|                               ;; options
|                               (execute-kbd-macro "{")
|                               (save-excursion
|                                 ;; inserting a temporary ; so the 
following
|                                 ;; closing brace is working correctly
|                                 (execute-kbd-macro ";")
|                                 ;; inserting the closing electric } with
|                                 ;; behavior as customized with cc-mode
|                                 ;; options
|                                 (execute-kbd-macro "}"))
|                               ;; now we remove the temp. inserted ;
|                               (delete-char 1)))

Thanks, this does precisely what I wanted!

Just curious: How do I make execute-kbd-macro simulate a return press? I 
made several tries, but it did not work. And what does the # in front of 
the '(lambda ?
