Prepare your ingredients. Choose dried fruits and candied fruits to taste.

If you are not a supporter of alcoholic flavors, replace cognac with a strong infusion of aromatic tea, and for a delicate aroma, you can add vanillin to the dough.

Melt the butter and let it cool completely at room temperature.

Start kneading the dough with your hands, first in a bowl, and then, when all the ingredients are combined, continue kneading on the board. The dough is sticky, but don't add more flour. It is enough to grease your hands and surface with a small amount of vegetable oil.

You need to knead the dough for a long time - 10-12 minutes. It will gradually become elastic and less sticky.

Cover the dishes and leave in a warm place for 2-2.5 hours. Since there is a lot of baking in the dough, it takes a lot of time to rise. During this time, do 1-2 workouts.

Before transferring the dough into the mold, knead it again. Fill the container 1/2 full, it will rise very strongly during the final proofing, and then continue to rise during baking.

While the future cake is brewing, preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Place the mold in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature to 170 degrees.

Bake the cake for about 50 minutes or until cooked through. The baking time depends on its size; 15-20 minutes will be enough for small portioned cakes.

You do not need to make a high temperature in the oven, otherwise the top of the product will already brown, and the cake will not have time to bake inside.

Step 15 of 16

Let the baked goods cool completely before decorating with icing and sprinkles. It is better to cool in the form, turning it upside down so that the top of the cake does not touch the surface.

For decoration, you can choose the icing to taste. There are different: fondant, protein, simple sugar, chocolate. The same with sprinkles: dried fruits, nuts, pastry sprinkles, whatever your heart desires. This is a great holiday and Easter cake is the main decoration of the table, let your imagination run wild.
