The bright and attractive Medovik cake with sour cream excites the mind of any sweet tooth, as soon as he sees his red sides, and an alluring cut of a piece of such a dessert can make you forget about everything on light. It's no secret that you can't tear yourself away from a plate with such a delicacy until its bottom is exposed, especially if it is served to you with hot aromatic tea or coffee.
Many chefs are in a hurry and do not bring the mass to a caramel shade by heating it on the stove, and the color of the cake depends on this. The lightest cream for it that can be made is sour cream, but it is recommended to let the cake soak for at least 8-12 hours so that all the cakes inside become soft and juicy.
Ingredients:
Dough:
Chicken eggs - 2 pcs.
Butter - 80 g
Honey - 100 g
Wheat flour - 3 cups
Soda - 1 tsp
Sugar - 1 glass
Salt - 3 pinches
Water - 50 ml
Cream:
Sour cream of any fat content - 0.6 l
Cream thickener - 2 sachets
Sugar - 1 tbsp.
Preparation:
1. Pour sugar and salt into a deep saucepan with a non-stick bottom or cauldron, add honey (choose a variety by taste). Pour in some warm water and place the container on the stove with medium heat.
2. The honey will melt in a few minutes and mix with salt and sugar, the mass will begin to bubble. It is at this stage that many do not wait until it acquires a caramel shade, but in vain! Reduce heat to low and mash mixture until golden brown.
3. Pour in baking soda, but no more than 1 tsp. Do not overdo it, otherwise you will get baked cakes with a bitter aftertaste - the cake will be hopelessly spoiled! When soda is added, the mass will begin to bubble again - turn off the heat and mix it thoroughly.
4. Stir in the butter.
5. Beat the eggs in a separate container or bowl.
6. Pour them into the honey mass, mix. Add the sifted flour in portions and knead the dough.
7. It will stick slightly to your hands, as long as you do not overload it with flour. Cover the dough with cling film, place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
8. After a while, remove the film and form a roll from the dough, adding flour if necessary. Cut it into portions.
9. Roll each of them on parchment paper and use a plate to cut out circles with a knife. Do not remove the remains of the dough - attach them to another layer.
10. Send the paper with the blank onto a baking sheet, and then place it in an oven preheated to 200 degrees. Bake for 5-6 minutes, but no more, do not overdry the cake! Make the rest of the cakes in the same way. Set aside two of them immediately on the crumb to sprinkle on the treats.
11. Whip sour cream of any fat content with a thickener for cream and granulated sugar (you can replace it with powder) for 4-5 minutes, turning everything into a cream.
12. Spread the cream on the baked cakes, laying them on top of each other. Place the collected cake in the refrigerator for soaking for at least 6 hours, maximum for a day.
13. Grind the two remaining cakes into crumbs. Remove the cake from the refrigerator and dust the sides and surface of the dessert with it.
Cut the prepared Honey cake into portions and serve with hot or cold drinks.
