Ingredients for Cake "Nut"

Step by step instruction of cooking Cake "Nut"

Шаг 1

The resulting mass sift flour, stir until smooth. The batter should flow down stream with the Corolla. Leaving aside, at about this stage is put from the fridge for the butter cream to it to soften naturally.

Шаг 2

Pour the dough into nothing a greased form. The dimensions of the form 36х24, you can take more (like cookie sheet), less not advised. The dough itself should distributed a thin, even layer. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and bake for 18 (+/-2) minutes.

Шаг 3

While baked biscuit, you can manage to make the dough for chocolate base cake.
Mix all dry ingredients: flour, soda, salt, cocoa powder, vanilla, sugar. Flour, soda and cocoa powder be sure to sift.

Шаг 4

Add to mixture of vinegar, water and vegetable oil.

Шаг 5

Mix all the ingredients until smooth. I did it as a mixer, or by hand: the difference is only in time of manual mixing, the taste does not suffer. The batter is quite runny, but thick sponge.

Шаг 6

While the oven is chocolate chip cookies, make the lemon-cream Manne.
In a container pour 400 g of 500 g of milk we need for the cream, there also send sugar, put a bowl on fire and stir in anticipation boiling. In the remaining 100 g. add the semolina, a little swollen.

Шаг 7

Once the milk is boiling, mix up it in small pieces semolina (the less parts, the less chance of lumps). Within 2-3 minutes brought porridge until tender. Long cooking is not necessary, otherwise the cream will be too thick.

Шаг 8

It is necessary to cool the cream to room temperature. Fast and lossless this can be done by pouring a pot of cold water and dropping back a container of cream.

Шаг 9

Until the cream cools, the chocolate and the cake still baked, make the main ingredient: lemon.
Here are the at the discretion. Cut into small pieces/press/put into the blender/replaceable lemon juice. The amount of lemon depends on your taste preferences. For me, the optimal number 3/4, I love sour, so more than this amount to take mindlessly suggest, like less than 1/2 of the lemon, the taste of the cream will be too "Manne". Better determine the right amount of lemon empirically, subsequently trying the cream.

Шаг 10

When the cream has cooled, and lemon processed, start hammering the softened butter into the cream. Here add the lemon and adjust the amount. If you think that the cream still comes out too thick and hard whipped then slightly dilute it with hot milk (1/5-1/4 Cup). However, the cream must not run with the beater, it should hold the shape. The bubbles in the photo - the lemons, the rest of the cream is smooth.

Шаг 11

Break cake into fairly small pieces, add the prepared cream. If you have time before the next stage can be removed a lot in the fridge.

Шаг 12

Cut the whole top layer or part (not less than 3/4 of the cake) into small pieces and add them to the mass of cream and biscuit.

Шаг 13

Mass thoroughly mixed. Can use the whole top half, but can leave some for decoration. The chocolate dough is very plastic, if not spare time, he can even sculpt any figurines, figures and other decorative elements.

Шаг 14

Put the mixture on a chocolate base, which I have remained in shape. You can stamp all slide, can be placed in the form. In any case, to collapse the cake is.

Шаг 15

From the remains of the chocolate muffin I hastily made "decoration". Decided to fill in the spaces with glaze, but without glaze, this cake cost is wonderful.

Шаг 16

To prepare glaze need to RUB the oil with cocoa powder and starch.

Шаг 17

Separately, prepare the syrup: mix sugar and water and heat until the sugar is dissolved. Next, slowly pour the syrup into the mixture and mix until smooth. The glaze comes out rather dense, not smooth. Apply with a spoon.

Шаг 18

Here is the final version of decorated cake. Orange slices - dried apricots. I confess, just not enough icing, I had (so typical for this cake) "out". While in the form, for him another day to wait for the holiday to which it is made. Yes, there is no similarity to roses, no powdered sugar, severe male cake.

Шаг 19

Mini version of the same cake, but without frosting. Exactly half of the ingredients. Laid slide, the top sprinkled with biscuit crumbs.
