Do we often eat home-made cakes at home ? Most people will probably answer this question in the negative. What are the reasons for the rare appearance of homemade dessert on the tea table of a modern family? First of all, the reason that we rarely eat home-made cake at home is, of course, a lack of time. And the second obstacle to a cozy tea party with pastries, in which soul and care are invested, is the lack of a suitable recipe.
Fast or tasty?
Sometimes, having decided to please your favorite tasters with something tasty, it rarely goes further than reading the cooking instructions. Long texts with details enter into a stupor at first. It is easier to put aside both the recipe and the undertaking itself. And in the next celebration we eat at home a cake, hastily captured from a shelf in the nearest supermarket. In a more pleasant case, we order dessert and bring home a gorgeous product, for which no less chic amount of money was given. The colors are bright but tasteless. And upon closer inspection, the decor is a fairly simple cake.
Baking cakes with Julia
Our mistresses were lucky. The fact is that a magnificent woman lives in the world - Julia Vysotskaya.

Vysotskaya Julia bakes cakes with such speed and ease that many, inspired by her example, repeat the dessert right in the middle of an average cuisine. At the same time, the story of the culinary fairy is fast, and it seems that we can do the same. And rightly so. Will we try?

Cooking Instructions
We dilute gelatin according to the instructions attached to the package.
It is necessary to pour milk, cream (22%) into the pan, add 100 grams of powder and bring the mixture to a boil. Make sure that the ingredients do not boil: this is very important.
Into the resulting mixture add swollen gelatin. Shuffle it by connecting the components. Cool to room temperature and then send to the bowels of the refrigerator. There, the jelly will freeze as needed for the cake.
Soluble 50 grams of sugar in a small amount of warm water (45 milliliters). Separately, melt the chocolate bar.
Proceed to whipping the yolks. At this time, we introduce the obtained syrup from water and sugar into the yolk mixture. We’ll send the entire norm of chocolate here.
Using a mixer, beat 180 milliliters of cream (35%). Add cream to the chocolate-syrup mixture and beat a little more. Put the cream in the refrigerator.
Beat 8 eggs and 150 grams of sugar. Mix with sifted flour and cocoa powder.
Put the dough (with cocoa) into the mold and bake two identical cakes in a hot oven (180 degrees) for 25-30 minutes.
Put the cherries in a small pot. Let's leave some berries for a decor. The rest is mixed with sugar (50 grams) and water (3 tablespoons). Boil the resulting mixture in half the total volume.
Whip the balance of 35 percent cream.
Pour cakes with a sweet mixture of berries. For beauty, several whole copies are decomposed on the surface of the syrup. Now we get jelly and chocolate cream from the refrigerator. The first layer will be jelly. The second will be a chocolate layer of cream.
The cream will be whipped cream. If desired, you can repeat all the steps by adjusting the second cake on top. We decorate the dessert with cherries and what the imagination prompts. Leave for half an hour in the refrigerator, meanwhile boil the kettle. We eat home-made cake at home, and are proud of ourselves, taking compliments.
