Famous Cake Easy to whip up

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake the famous cake as quickly as possible? Prepare ingredients for making dough. Choose natural condensed milk, without milk fat substitutes. It may take a little less or more flour, depending on the condition of the dough.

2. STEP 2

   

   Take a deep bowl and crack an egg into it. Stir it lightly with a whisk.

3. STEP 3

   

   Add condensed milk to the egg, stir until smooth.

4. STEP 4

   

   Take baking soda and place it in a small cup. Pour vinegar into the soda. Mix the ingredients with a spoon. The “quenching” reaction will begin - the alkali will react with the acid. Due to the released carbon dioxide, the baked goods will be able to grow and “rise.” Immediately add slaked soda to the dough and mix with a whisk.

5. STEP 5

   

   Start adding flour to the dough in portions. I poured in half a glass and mixed a portion of flour with a spoon. This will make it easier for you to control the consistency of the dough. Gradually the dough will begin to become thicker.

6. STEP 6

   

   The end result should be a soft, non-sticky dough that can be rolled out. It took me just 3 cups of flour. But keep in mind that the flour is different, so you may need less flour. At the end, I literally added flour one spoon at a time so as not to over-mix it. Excess flour can cause the cakes to become tough. The dough should be soft, but so soft that you can pick it up with your hands and divide it into pieces.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place the dough on a floured work surface. Divide it into 8 parts.

8. STEP 8

   

   Take one piece and roll it into a circle with a diameter of approximately 20-22 cm. Focus on the pan in which you will bake the cake. If the dough is a little sticky, sprinkle it with flour.

9. STEP 9

   

   Heat a frying pan over low heat. I used non-stick coating. There is no need to grease the pan. Place the dough piece on the heated frying pan. Be sure to prick it all over the surface with a fork so that the dough does not bubble when baking.

10. STEP 10

    

    Bake the cake for 1-2 minutes on one side, it should become golden brown. Then turn the cake over and bake the other one for the same amount of time. While the first cake is baking, roll out the next one on the table. And so on with all 8 cakes. Remove the finished cake onto a plate. Let all the cakes cool.

11. STEP 11

    

    While the cakes are cooling, prepare the cream. Prepare food for him.

12. STEP 12

    

    Take a saucepan with a thick bottom. Break eggs into it. Add regular and vanilla sugar to them. Beat lightly with a whisk. Add flour and mix it with eggs.

13. STEP 13

    

    Pour in the milk. Stir until smooth.

14. STEP 14

    

    Place the saucepan with the cream on low heat. Cook the cream with constant stirring until it thickens. Do not leave the stove; when heated, the eggs on the bottom may cook into an omelet, and the cream will be spoiled. Therefore, it is so important to take a saucepan with a thick bottom and constantly stir the cream.

15. STEP 15

    

    After about five minutes the cream will begin to thicken before your eyes. Boil it until it becomes thick sour cream.

16. STEP 16

    

    Remove the cream from the heat and let it cool for about 5 minutes. Add butter to the cream.

17. STEP 17

    

    Mix the cream with a whisk until smooth and shiny.

18. STEP 18

    

    Trim the finished cakes by placing a plate of a suitable size on them. Don't throw away the scraps, we'll make crumbs out of them.

19. STEP 19

    

    Assemble the cake. Pour a spoonful of cream onto the stand and place the first cake layer. Spread the cake thickly with warm cream. You get a lot of cream, so you don’t have to skimp. Cover it with the second cake layer, spread it with cream, and so on.

20. STEP 20

    

    The top cake and sides are also smeared with cream. Place the cake in the refrigerator to soak for 8 hours. Make crumbs from the scraps. I put them in a bag and crushed them with a rolling pin. Sprinkle crumbs over the top and sides of the cake.

Thanks to the author for the recipe. This cake is really simple and quick! I recommend another simple cake recipe. Tender and juicy honey cake without rolling out the cake layers.

I whipped up the famous cake for tea. Easier than ever. It’s not for nothing that it’s called that; it really wasn’t difficult to make. For the dough of flour (highest grade), it took me three 200 ml glasses (380 g). I took the egg category C1. The dough turned out very tender, soft, and at the same time it rolled out perfectly and did not tear. I cooked the cakes in a cast iron frying pan for 1-1.5 minutes on each side. The cakes turn over easily and do not break. I cut the cakes into a plate with a diameter of 20 cm. I also used C1 eggs for the cream. Butter with a fat content of 72.5 percent. My daughter helped me coat the cakes with cream. I crushed the remaining cakes in a blender. The cake rested in the refrigerator for about 5 hours. The cake turned out very tender and tasty. The combination of condensed milk cakes and custard is simply amazing. The cake cuts perfectly and does not crumble.katushafin, thank you very much for the wonderful recipe!

Really delicious and simple cake. I remember we baked something like this at school during home economics class. Therefore, a novice housewife will cope quite successfully with this recipe. I’ve had it in my collection for a long time. The “cookbook” service is a very necessary thing. Finally, I will get rid of numerous pieces of paper, notebooks, etc. It is easy and convenient to use, you can create your own categories. Thank you.
