2. In this mass, add the sifted flour in 2-3 approaches. Gently and briefly mix the dough with a spatula, rotating the bowl. The finished dough should remain airy.
3. We shift the finished dough into a form, the bottom of which is covered with parchment paper. The walls of the form do not need to be lubricated. Spread the dough evenly throughout the mold. The diameter of my mold is 21 cm. We put everything in the oven preheated to 180 degrees. Bake the cake for about 20-25 minutes.
4. Let the baked biscuit cool and remove from the mold. We remove the top crust and reduce the biscuit in diameter, cutting off from the edge of the biscuit in a circle about one centimeter.

The cream is slightly whipped, gradually pour 80 g of sugar and 1 g of vanillin into it. Once the cream has thickened and increased in volume, stop whipping.
10. Add the chopped cottage cheese to the whipped cream and mix everything.
11. Gelatin is already swollen, heat it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds and mix. So we repeat 3-4 times. Gelatin should warm up to about 50 degrees. Pour half of the prepared gelatin into the apricot puree and mix well. Pour the other half into whipped cream with cottage cheese. Pour gelatin gradually, constantly stirring with a mixer.
12. Pour cream cheese cream onto the prepared biscuit and distribute it in shape.
    Gently pour the prepared apricot puree on top of the buttercream. It is desirable to pour one spoon at a time or pour on a spoon lowered to the very bottom to the butter cream. While nothing is frozen, draw an arbitrary pattern on the cake with a fork.
13. We put the cake in the refrigerator to harden for at least 3-4 hours, and preferably at night.
