6 servings1 day
Eggs - 1 pc., Wheat flour - 160 g, Sugar - 80 g, Honey - 30 g, Butter - 50 g, Baking soda - 0.5 g, Fatty cream - 300 g, Powdered sugar - 3 tbsp, Confitur - 70 g
To make the honey dough for the cakes, prepare the necessary ingredients. To keep the cakes soft, use good quality butter. Do not replace it with margarine or spread.
In a deep saucepan, melt the butter with the honey and cool a little so that the mass is not hot.
Separately, mix sugar with egg with a whisk. Then introduce this mixture into a warm oil-honey mixture. Return the pan to the heat and bring it all together to the boil.
Add soda to the boiling mass, mix everything and remove from the heat. The mass will increase in volume and foam. So it should be - this is the reaction of soda with honey. This mass must be cooled to room temperature.
Add the sifted flour to the cooled honey mass and knead the dough. There is no need to add flour more than the specified amount, otherwise the dough will become tough and the finished product will be solid. Cover the dough and put it in the refrigerator for an hour. It should go there. And only after that it will be possible to work with him.
Cut the number 4 from the sheet (slightly less than A4) of paper.
Divide the dough into 2-3 parts and roll each into a layer 0. 4-0. 6 mm thick and cut the number 4 into a stencil. Bake the cakes in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 4-6 minutes. Cool the ready-made corgi.
To make the filling, take the chilled fat cream and icing sugar. But anyone can use confits in the filling, if desired. Or not to use at all. I'll be adding blackcurrant confitures.
For the cream, whisk the icing sugar cream into a stable cream.
Put the cream in a pastry bag and, having made a cut, deposit the cream over the entire surface of the cake. Then add some confitur.
So collect the whole cake. At the top of the cake, also, deposit the cream over the entire surface. Cover the cake hermetically and place in the fridge for a few hours to soak well. In a closed container, all moisture will go into the cake, thereby soaking them well.
Tell the middle four with chocolate. You can simply cut a triangular piece of chocolate, or draw it with melted chocolate.
Then decorate the cake to your liking. Fruits, berries or sweets can be used as jewelry. Nice treat!
