Let's make the ingredients for the dough. The dough is prepared as a regular shortbread, but you do not need time to rest it, you can immediately switch to baking. Nuts can be taken for filling any: peanuts, almonds, cashews or small pieces of walnuts. Walnuts give a particularly pleasant taste to honey dough.

Drive two chicken eggs into a bowl, add sugar and beat with a blender until the sugar is completely dissolved and a homogeneous mass is obtained, you do not need until there is a thick foam.

Add honey and vinegar-slaked soda to the egg mixture, mix well so that the honey dissolves if thick. Foam should appear on the surface of the mixture.

Add margarine or butter softened at room temperature to the mixture and rub the mass well.

We pour in parts of the sieved flour and mix out the elastic smooth dough, it should not stick to the hands.

We form a long sausage from the dough and cut it into small pieces, about the size of a walnut, a few pieces can be made slightly smaller than the rest. We roll each piece into a small tortilla about 0. 5 cm thick. We put nuts in the center and fix the edges of the dough, forming an even ball.

So we do with the whole test. We put dough balls on a baking sheet greased with oil.

We heat the oven to 180 degrees. We send a baking sheet with balls to the oven for literally 15 minutes, but focus on the work of your oven. The balls should brown. We take them out and cool them down, they should become much larger in size. Meanwhile, we prepare the cream.

We prepare three creams for pouring dough: from chocolate, with cocoa and sour cream. On a water bath, dissolve a bar of bitter chocolate with the addition of milk and butter. Bring the water in the pan to a boil, put a bowl in it. We pour milk into the bowl, put chocolate broken on pieces, interfere until the chocolate melts. Then add a piece of butter, stir until you have a smooth smooth chocolate mass.

In another bowl, you make sour cream. Beat sour cream with sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mass is increased. We make cocoa cream. In the third bowl, most of the sour cream and add cocoa. Beat well with a blender or mix until the mass is homogeneous in consistency and color. We start collecting cake. We lay several balls for eggs, make a nest from the rest.

We dip part of the balls in chocolate cream, part in cocoa cream. We lay out around two layers of these balls, leaving a void in the center for eggs. If the cream remains, you can fill the nest with it on top so that it better soaks the dough. Dip the remaining balls in sour cream and put them in the center of the nest. Leave the cake in the fridge overnight to allow the dough to soak well in the cream. We serve to the table. Have a nice tea party!
