Sponge cake
And you can make a completely unusual cake "Military". To prepare it, you will need to start a biscuit dough:
- take 500 g of a mixture for biscuit;
- 1.5 cups of water;
- 3 eggs;
- 0.3 cups vegetable oil (odorless).
All ingredients are beaten with a mixer at medium speed for two minutes.
You can make cakes from ordinary products. You will need:
- 80 g of butter;
- 250 grams of flour;
- 250 grams of sugar;
- 8 eggs and a little salt.
The eggs, along with salt, beat until foamy. Sugar is gradually introduced here, with everything whipping on. Fifteen minutes later, the mixture becomes thick and very lush. Next, you need to introduce flour in portions. Beat the mass is no longer necessary. It must be gently mixed. At this time, the oil melts and cools. In the dough, it is introduced in the last place. The mixture is mixed again until smooth.
Once your dough is ready, take two biscuit tins of about 25 centimeters in diameter and prepare them for baking. You can cover them with oil from a special spray. And you can make a "French shirt" - grease with butter and sprinkle lightly with flour on top.
Military Cake
And now - the most interesting. We begin to prepare a cake on a military theme from biscuit dough. You will need:
- 2 teaspoons of food coloring;
- 500 grams of butter cream;
- 200 grams of chocolate butter.
The dough is divided into four parts. Using dyes we make brown, green and orange dough. The fourth part remains natural. In pre-prepared forms with a spoon, the dough is laid out in a chaotic manner. It is baked for about 20 minutes at a temperature of 190 degrees. Readiness is checked with a toothpick. After the biscuits have cooled, they must be removed from the caps-hills with a knife or string.
The substrate for the cake should be greased with cream. Otherwise, the cake will fall from it. The first cake is laid out with a slice up and smeared with cream and chocolate butter. On it you need to put the second cake upside down. The product is coated with oily orange cream. Spoons are made with a spoon or spatula. The cake is infused for at least four hours.
As a result, the dessert for the military will look very strict. Outside, it will be the most ordinary, but inside everyone will expect a huge surprise - “military dough”! Bon Appetit!
