Experienced hostesses advise: for cooking, it is necessary to use food at room temperature. The process itself, of course, takes place in several stages.
Cooking dough
The first thing to do is to mix the eggs with condensed milk well. Add sifted flour, baking soda or baking powder to them. In this case, you can resort to stirring with the help of a spoon or fork.
Many housewives use a mixer, believing that it is more convenient. Having thoroughly mixed the components, we get a soft, moderately batter. Next, baking paper and a plate are taken. The plate should be circled in a circle, turn the paper upside down in pencil. The recommended circle diameter is about 19 cm.
After that, two tablespoons of the finished dough should be poured into the center of the mug. It should not spread too much in a circle. The dough should be evenly distributed on paper. Those who think that it turns out too thin do not need to worry - the thinner the cakes, the tastier the cake.
Bake cakes
To bake a cake, you should set the temperature in the oven by about 180-200 degrees. It is necessary to bake cakes until golden and creamy. Products are removed from baking paper still hot, otherwise it will be impossible to tear them off the paper.
Cooking cream for impregnation
Cake "Milk girl" with sour cream is popular with many. Such a cream gives the product a slight sourness, the taste is very harmonious. Mistresses recommend using sour cream 20%. The cream is lush and it will be better to keep in shape. But they also use 15% of the product. We prepare the cream by simply mixing the products suggested in the recipe (see above).
Making a cake
5 cake layers, cream, peaches (canned) and juice from them, necessary for impregnation, should be prepared for the assembly of the cake. Many homemade confectioners recommend assembling a cake using a pastry ring or split ring. But you can, of course, do without it. The lower crust should be put in a ring, soaked in peach syrup, smear with cream and lay out the fruits. The same applies to subsequent cakes. The top also needs to be coated with sour cream.
Impregnated
Next, the cake is sent to the refrigerator for 3-4 hours, you can for the whole night. During this time, thin cakes are well saturated and become juicy and lush. They have a sweet taste, but the use of sour cream helps to ensure that this sweet is not sugary. The treat is very popular with both children and adults.
Decorate the cake
You can decorate the cake with custard protein cream, fresh grapes or peaches. From above it is possible to plant wafer butterflies to brighten the product. It turns out a nice treat for tea.
Options
Housewives offer different cake options: with cream, with bananas, with chocolate and caramel cream, with aromatic strawberries. In any case, the treat is quite easy to prepare. A multilayer biscuit cake soaked with sour cream and supplemented with some interesting nuance suggested to the hostess by her imagination turns out to be unusually juicy and tender.
Sour cream cake with strawberries
The ingredients used are the same as in the base recipe. Only strawberries (150 g) and chocolate icing are added to them. Cakes are cooked and baked according to the scheme described above. During the assembly of the product, sour cream is applied to the cooled cakes and the cut strawberry slices are placed. So all cakes are missed. The cake is coated with cream and put in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. While the treat is soaked, you can prepare the icing, which many consider the easiest and most successful way to decorate the treats.
How to cook icing?
Mistresses offer various options for the preparation of glaze. The easiest way is to melt the chocolate bar (white or black), add a little cream or milk. But you can make icing from cocoa. To do this, mix 3 tbsp. l (with a slide) of cocoa powder, sugar (to taste), sour cream or milk (4 tbsp. l.). While stirring, cook on fire until sugar is completely dissolved. Next, add a little butter (about 50 g). Again put on the fire and cook until bubbles appear, but do not boil. When the icing becomes thicker, it needs to be slightly cooled, and can be poured onto the cake.
What's next?
Next, a slightly cooled cake is filled with icing, sprinkled with chopped slices from cakes (you can use a blender) and decorated with strawberries. The cake is again put in the refrigerator to soak (at least 3-4 hours, preferably all night). Cream experienced mistresses recommend not to spare. Cakes absorb it almost completely. The cake as a result will be very fragrant and juicy.
We decorate the cake with mastic
Some housewives advise decorating the Milk Girl cake with sour cream. It turns out a great treat for a children's holiday. From the cooled mastic you can fashion any fairy-tale or cartoon characters that will amuse the kids.
How to cook mastic?
In a deep bowl, put marshmallows sweets, put in the microwave for 1 minute. Melted sweets turn into a viscous homogeneous mass. Powdered sugar (in small portions) is added to it and knead with a spoon. After the mastic has already begun to lag behind the walls of the container, it should be transferred to a surface sprinkled with starch and continue to knead, adding starch and powder. The mass will turn out soft and plastic. It is wrapped in a plastic bag and sent to the refrigerator.
How to decorate a cake with mastic?
After the cake is ready, the mastic should be removed from the refrigerator, let it lie down so that it warms up and becomes plastic. Next, sprinkle the table with powder and roll the mastic with a rolling pin. The thickness of the formation should be about 5 mm. The mastic is carefully wound on a rolling pin and covered with a cake, removing and smoothing out all the folds and bumps. After that, the dessert is put in the refrigerator. From the leftovers, if desired, you can fashion figures of your favorite children's characters and put them on the surface of the cake. Have a nice tea party!
