Description

Very tasty cake, my family just love it - the delicate flavor, the cake just melts in your mouth, not cloying, moderately sweet. My medovichok, unlike their fellows of honey oil or custard enough nizkokalorina (250 kcal/100g). The main thing in this recipe is sour cream - from its correct preparation will depend on the quality and appearance of our cake. I must say, the cake is not 5 minutes, not a quick process, but not difficult. Trying to lay out a detailed recipe that would make it easy to repeat!

Flour

175 g
Sugar

50 g
Butter

40 g

1 Tbsp
Chicken egg

1 piece
Soda

0.5 tsp
Sour cream

1000 g

Cooking

First, prepare the sour cream for the cream. To do this we need to remove the excess whey, which makes the liquid sour cream. Put all the sour cream in cheesecloth, folded in 3-4 layers. Tie the edges of the cheesecloth and hung our sour cream, we substitute the bottom of the beaker, where will drain the whey. All the action will last about 2 hours. (The resulting serum can be used for pancakes. Serum is good for soaking and softening tough beef or elk. I just pour...)

In the meantime, we will prepare dough for cakes. In a saucepan put the butter and flooding it. Add the sugar and honey. Stir until partial dissolution of sugar. Do not boil!!! Just heated on low heat for 1-2 minutes.

Add soda (not extinguish). Stir. The mass turns white and increases in volume. Stir 1 minute. Remove from the heat.

Beat the egg, mix well with a whisk.

Add all the sifted flour, knead elastic, soft dough. Roll the dough into a ball, put into plastic bag, refrigerate for 30 minutes.

The dough is divided into 6 parts. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. I bake cakes on a silicone Mat, use parchment, but with the pad faster and easier. The silicone pad a little sprinkle with flour, roll out 1 piece of dough. With a plate (I D=20 cm) cut out the circle. The edges of the dough are not retractable, they are still useful to us. Do the test punctures with a fork in several places.

Bake the cake for 3-4 minutes until beautiful brown. Ready cake is detachable from the jagged edges that fold to the side - not to eat, they are still useful to us! Thus bake all 6 layers.

Back to the sour cream. Slightly speed up the process of draining the whey. Press a gauze bag and slightly screw it on top of that the serum faster glass. Click on the bag very carefully until the cream will not climb through cheesecloth. The whey is drained a lot, I have somewhere 300 gr.

Spread sour cream bowl into a deep glass bowl, add 4 tbsp of sugar. Take a mixer and gently mix our cream beginning on low speed then on high. (I put the bowl in the sink, what would the walls were clean!) Whisk the cream until the sugar is dissolved, 4-5 minutes (stopping and giving rest to the mixer). Long whip is not required, our cream is quite thick and holds its shape.

Collect honey. Cut out parchment or any other paper circle the diameter of our cakes. You can do without it, but with paper it will be easier to shift and serve the cake. On paper lay out the first layer. On top of the cake spread 3-4 tbsp of the sour cream, alignment, retreating from the edges 2 cm.

Put the second cake. Only the second cake we will popitem jam.

Put the third Korzh, lubricated sour cream, and so put all the cakes. The last cake is not lubricated. Take a cutting Board and gently press the cake that the cream got into the cake better. Pressed cake grease remnants of cream, do not forget well fluff the edges of the cake sides.

From the remnants of the marginal parts of the cake do a crumb with the help of the chopper.

Sprinkle with crumbs on the cake, using a flat knife to gently sprinkle (presses) the end part of the cake. The crumbs must cover the entire cake, if You have not tried it while cooking, You have enough!!

Put the cake on a plate. The cake is ready, now the cream should have a good soak cakes, cover the cake with a cap for microwave (if not, it is possible not to cover) and refrigerate for 5-6 hours.

Our honey cake with sour cream is ready! Very tasty, can't resist!

You can decorate the cake to your liking, I still have a photo of my brand of honey from the last holiday, that's how beautiful it was not long!
