Surely many people remember the days when almost all the stores were filled with such a delicious and delicate dessert as the Enchantress cake. Cheryomushki, a bakery and confectionery factory, recently resumed production of this sweet dish. If in your city there is no such dessert, then you should not be upset. Indeed, today we are going to take a step-by-step look at how to make the “Enchantress” cake according to GOST at home. Moreover, in order to simplify the baking process of cakes and not use a gas (electric) stove, we decided to use only a slow cooker.
Delicate cake "Enchantress" in the slow cooker: recipe for cooking
Before making such a light dessert, bake soft and lush cakes. For this we need:
- sifted wheat flour - 200 g;
- granulated sugar - 200 g;
- large chicken egg - 4 pcs.;
- vegetable oil - for baking;
- vinegar and soda table - 5 g.
Kneading dough
The most delicious cake "Enchantress" is obtained from a biscuit base. To prepare such cakes, you should separate the proteins and yolks in different dishes, and then add sugar to the last ingredient and rub it with a white spoon. As for proteins, it is recommended to cool them, and then beat in a thick foam, using a hand whisk or mixer.
After the steps have been taken, both components must be mixed, quenched with soda vinegar and add sifted wheat flour. As a result, you should get a liquid and viscous dough.
Cake baking
Cake "Enchantress" in a slow cooker cooks much easier and faster than in an oven. In this regard, we decided to use the presented kitchen device. Its bowl should be greased with oil, and then pour all previously kneaded dough. Next, the multicooker must be put into baking mode, and the timer set for 40 minutes. After this time, it is necessary to check the readiness of the biscuit by sticking a toothpick or knife into it. If the base does not stick to the object, then the cake can be safely removed from the bowl. It is desirable to completely cool it, cut off the edges nicely with a plate of the desired diameter (if required), and then divide in half. As a result, you should get two thin biscuit cakes.
Essential ingredients for cream
Cream for the cake "Enchantress" should be light, delicate and very tasty. After all, it is 1/3 of the dessert. Thus, to prepare the air filling, we need:
- fresh fatty milk - 400 ml;
- granulated sugar - 200 g;
- sifted wheat flour - 50 g;
- fresh butter (only not margarine) - 50 g;
- large chicken eggs - 2 pcs.
Cooking process
Such a cream is done very quickly and easily. But to make it really tasty and tender, you must follow all the rules for its preparation. First you need to beat the eggs with a whisk right in the multicooker bowl. Next, they need to pour sugar and pour in fresh fat milk. Mix these components until the sweet bulk ingredient has completely dissolved. After that, to the resulting mass, pour in wheat flour and put the device into baking mode. In this composition, the basis for the cream must be boiled until thickened, constantly stirring with a spoon. At the end, the multicooker program must be suspended, and add soft butter to the hot mixture. Next, the cream should be whipped strongly with a mixer, and after receiving a lush mass, cool in calm air.
Glaze Components
As you know, the Enchantress cake is covered with a thick layer of chocolate glaze. You can make such a sweetness according to various recipes. However, according to GOST, this coating requires the use of the following components:
- thick fat sour cream - 100 g;
- granulated sugar - 100 g;
- fresh butter - 100 g;
- cocoa powder - 50 g.
Cooking process
Surprisingly, such a glaze is done in literally minutes. To do this, mix thick fat sour cream with sugar, and then put them in baking mode and gradually bring to a boil, adding cocoa powder. After you get a homogeneous mass of dark color, you need to add fresh butter to it and wait for it to completely dissolve, stirring it regularly with a spoon. As a result, you should get a semi-liquid glaze. It should be noted that such a coating freezes quite quickly. Therefore, it is better to cook it after the Enchantress cake is already fully formed.
The process of forming and decorating dessert
A sweet item under the magic name “Enchantress” is assembled very quickly and easily. The main thing is that all components are prepared in advance. Thus, you need to take a cake box or a large round plate, and then place one sponge cake on it. In turn, the cooled cream should be laid out on a base with a thick layer. Moreover, this filling should be approximately 1/3 of the dessert. After all, it is due to the content of such a large amount of light and delicate cream that your cake will turn out to be unusually tasty and magnificent. Next, you need to place the second biscuit cake on the filling, gently squeezing it with your hands for the stability of the dessert. If we consider the product from the side, it is very difficult to distinguish between the boundaries of the base and cream. After all, they should turn out almost the same color.
At the end of the preparation of the cake, you should make the icing according to the above recipe, and then pour it over the whole dessert, including the side parts. As a result, you will get a beautiful and delicate product, which is recommended to withstand in the refrigerator for at least a day. There it will completely harden, become more stable and tasty.
If the “Enchantress” cake is intended for a children's holiday, then it should be additionally sprinkled with some confectionery decorations. In addition, using the remnants of cream and a culinary syringe on the surface of the dessert, you can write the name of the birthday person and a couple of congratulatory words. Believe me, not a single sweet tooth will refuse such a homemade sweet product.
How to present dessert to the table?
After a day, the Enchantress cake will be completely ready for use. Before serving, it should be cut into portions, put in small saucers and presented to guests with hot tea. Enjoy your meal!
Useful tips for housewives
It is possible to prepare such a dessert not according to GOST. After all, modern chefs always try to make standard dishes more tasty and unusual. As a rule, such a desire leads to the fact that any of its ingredients are added to the familiar recipe. So, the presented cake can be made completely chocolate. To do this, add a few tablespoons of cocoa powder to the biscuit dough and cream. As for the top cover, some housewives do not make it dark, but, on the contrary, light. To do this, you need to purchase two tiles of white chocolate, and then melt them over low heat, adding a couple of tablespoons of fresh milk and the same amount of butter. As a result, the appearance of the dessert is quite unusual, and the taste and texture remain the same. Thus, fantasizing and combining various ingredients, you can create, at home, truly culinary masterpieces, from which absolutely all invited guests will be delighted.
