Description
or it is called "Waldorf-Astoria Cake" or "100 dollar cake." Unusual red air biscuit with the taste of chocolate to contrast with the white cream. This cake is very popular in USA and Canada. There are many stories of creation. One of them says that one of the guests at the Waldorf-Astoria asked for the recipe of a cake that she loved, that she was billed $ 100. The lady was very offended by this and gave the recipe to anyone who could. Currently, there are so many versions of this recipe. One of them today I want to share.

Cream recipes there are many: custard and sour cream. Found this option with cheese "Mascarpone". (The cream we have here is difficult to buy.) Whip the cream until resistant foam with the addition of 1/3 of the powdered sugar. In a separate container whisk the mascarpone with the rest of sugar and 1/2 tsp. spoon of vanilla sugar. Gently combine with whipped cream. The cream is applied to the cake using a pastry spatula.
