  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make honey dough for cake? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this! I do not recommend replacing butter with margarine in honey dough. With butter, the cakes turn out tender and more crumbly, which means they will be well soaked in cream.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    It is convenient to use a non-stick pan to prepare the dough. Place sugar, butter and honey in it. Put everything on the fire and melt it. Do not heat to a boil. Once the butter has melted, remove from heat. If it is overheated, let the mixture cool slightly. This is necessary to prevent the eggs from curdling at high temperatures.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. A little. Just so that they turn into a homogeneous mass. Then stir the honey mixture into the eggs.

  4. STEP 4

    Return everything to the fire. Bring to a boil while stirring constantly and remove from heat.

  5. STEP 5

    The soda will react with the honey and the mixture will begin to foam. Stir for a minute. Then leave the mixture to cool until warm.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Sift the flour through a sieve to saturate it with oxygen.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Gradually add flour and knead the dough. Focus on the consistency of the dough. It may take a little less flour. Don't add extra. Do not knead the dough for a long time. Simply stir in the flour with a wooden spatula. When she stops coping, knead the dough with her hands. It will quickly gather into a lump.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    The finished dough is very soft and tender. Even if it still sticks to your hands a little, after lying down for a while and resting it will become completely ready for use.

I decided to make honey dough for the cake using this recipe. I liked that you can prepare the honey dough in advance and leave it in the refrigerator. Prepared all the necessary ingredients. Melted creamy margarine instead of butter with sugar in a saucepan. Beat the eggs with a mixer and add honey. Then I combined the two masses and gradually added flour. First, I kneaded the dough with a whisk, and then kneaded it with my hands on the table, adding flour. Quite a simple cooking process. It turned out great dough with honey. It is fragrant, pliable, soft, elastic, does not stick and does not tear. This test is very convenient to work with. The cakes came out beautiful from this dough. By the way, the dough is incredibly tasty. After baking it is soft, golden brown and super tasty. Both adults and children really enjoyed it. My son just ate the baked dough, it was so appetizing and aromatic. Great recipe! Many thanks to the author!
