Condensed milk cake with chocolate cream

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 3 hr 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Let's prepare all the necessary ingredients for making the cake. I usually start this cake by making the cream. For the cream, it is better to take homemade fat milk; if you don’t like homemade milk, buy milk with a fat content of at least 3.2%. Take a saucepan and pour 250 ml of milk into it, put it on the stove.

2. STEP 2

   

   When the milk is well heated, but has not yet boiled, add sugar, vanilla sugar, cocoa and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. When everything is well dissolved, let the mixture boil for 2 minutes. Add butter, stir the mixture well until the butter dissolves and remove from the stove.

3. STEP 3

   

   Add 35 grams of starch to the remaining 250 ml of milk and mix well until the starch is completely dissolved in the milk. Add starch dissolved in milk to the milk-chocolate mixture, turn on the gas and bring to a boil. Let the cream boil and cook after boiling over low heat for 5 minutes, remove from heat, let the cream cool on the kitchen table and after cooling put it in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

4. STEP 4

   

   While the cream is cooling, let's prepare the cakes. To do this, beat the eggs with a mixer at medium speed for 3 minutes. Add condensed milk, vanilla sugar and mix everything well again. Sift the flour with baking powder (depending on the quality of the flour, it can take from 1 to 1.5 cups), we get a fairly liquid, pourable dough.

5. STEP 5

   

   Divide the dough into 3 equal parts and bake 3 cakes in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Let the finished cakes cool and form the cake.

6. STEP 6

   

   We grease the cake layers and the side surface of the cake with chocolate custard, decorate the top in random order with coconut flakes and chopped walnuts and put it in the refrigerator to soak for at least 2 hours, after which we serve the cake to the table.

   Condensed milk cake with chocolate custard is ready! Bon appetit!
