1. STEP 1

   

   Preparing shortbread dough. Mix flour with sugar and cold butter. Grind everything into crumbs with your hands. Let's add an egg. And knead the dough.

2. STEP 2

   

   Roll the dough into a log and wrap it in film. Place in the refrigerator for half an hour.

   Let's make a sponge cake. Divide the eggs into whites and yolks. Prepare bread crumbs, ground almonds and sugar.

4. STEP 4

   

   Beat the whites.

   Fry the crackers in a dry frying pan until golden brown. Let's cool.

6. STEP 6

   

   Beat the yolks with sugar until white. Add whites, crackers and ground almonds to them.

7. STEP 7

   

   Roll out the shortbread dough on paper. And put it together with the paper in the form.

8. STEP 8

   

   My shape is 30 by 34 cm. Prick the dough with a fork.

9. STEP 9

   

   Pour the biscuit dough onto the shortbread dough and place in an oven preheated to 180C for 30 minutes.

10. STEP 10

Esenia, the recipe is truly unusual. Combination cake. The sponge cake with breadcrumbs is especially interesting. Tell me, is it possible to use other nuts instead of almonds?

Esenija, what are those wonderful flowers in the background? Or maybe they're not flowers - I can't figure it out.

Thank you for participating in the “Best Recipe of the Week” competition. Congratulations on your victory in the competition and your well-deserved first place! Great recipe and interesting design. A wooden background adds chic to the photo. Very interesting flowers in the background, but there is no need to talk about the service. I really like it when individual elements echo each other - gray flowers with a gray background, white icing on cakes with a white tablecloth, white cups and flowers. Any photograph benefits from this. We look forward to your recipes in the next competitions.
