Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 10 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a Cow cake with boiled condensed milk? First, prepare the necessary ingredients for the dough according to the list. Take the highest grade flour. Take large, selected eggs. If the eggs are small, take 3 pieces. Butter, condensed milk and eggs should be at room temperature, so remove them from the refrigerator in advance.

2. STEP 2

   

   First peel the peanuts, fry them in a dry frying pan and grind them in a blender into fine crumbs. You can replace the peanuts with other nuts: walnuts, hazelnuts, cashews, pecans, etc.

3. STEP 3

   

   In a bowl, beat eggs with sugar with a mixer until fluffy.

4. STEP 4

   

   Add soft butter and boiled condensed milk and beat again until smooth.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add ground peanuts and stir.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add the flour sifted with baking powder in parts and knead into a soft, homogeneous, slightly sticky dough. You may need less or more flour. It is important not to stuff the dough with flour, trying to completely get rid of stickiness. Otherwise, the finished cakes will turn out tough and poorly soaked. When the dough begins to come together into a single lump and does not fall apart, there is enough flour. For more information about baking powder and flour, read the article below the steps.

7. STEP 7

   

   Wrap the dough in a bag and put it in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes.

8. STEP 8

   

   Divide the chilled dough into 7-8 equal parts.

9. STEP 9

   

   Place each part on parchment (I used siliconized), cover with another sheet of parchment or cling film on top and roll out into a thin layer. Cut out an even circle of the desired diameter from the workpiece. Collect the dough scraps and make a separate cake layer to decorate the finished cake.

10. STEP 10

    

    Bake the cakes in an oven preheated to 180℃ for 5-10 minutes until light golden brown. The exact time depends on your oven. Read more about how to choose the right baking time and temperature in the article. The link is at the end of the recipe. Roll out another cake from the scraps and also bake in the oven.

11. STEP 11

    

    Now prepare the cream. It is very important to choose high-quality cream that will whip well. Choose cream with a fat content of at least 33%. You also need high-quality and dense condensed milk. Cheap fakes, of which there are many now, will ruin your cream.

12. STEP 12

    

    Using a mixer, beat the cold cream until the mixture thickens and the whisk marks remain. For information on how to whip cream correctly, read the article below the steps.

13. STEP 13

    

    Add boiled condensed milk at room temperature and beat everything together until smooth. You should get an airy, non-flowing, homogeneous cream. It is important not to beat the cream so that it does not separate. Once you have achieved homogeneity, turn off the mixer.

14. STEP 14

    

    Then remove the ring. Assemble the cake by stacking the cake layers on top of each other and generously coating them with cream. If your cake layers float and move apart a lot, you can assemble the cake in a culinary ring. Place the cake in the refrigerator for 1 hour to allow the cream to set.

15. STEP 15

    

    Grind the scrap cake in a blender into fine crumbs. If you wish, you can add some peanuts to the blender.

16. STEP 16

    

    Sprinkle the sides and edges of the cake with crumbs. You can apply melted chocolate from a pastry bag on top. Place the cake in the refrigerator overnight to soak. The next day, serve the Korovka cake with boiled condensed milk and peanuts to the table. Bon appetit!
