Honey cakes with cream

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make honey cream cakes? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this.

2. STEP 2

   

   Combine butter and honey in a non-stick pan. Place on the fire and wait for the butter to melt.

3. STEP 3

   

   Separately, mix eggs with sugar.

4. STEP 4

   

   While stirring, add the melted butter to the eggs. Then pour everything back into the pan and return to the heat. Bring to a boil while stirring constantly and remove from heat.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add baking soda and stir. The mass will begin to foam and increase in volume. This is the reaction of honey with soda. Leave everything to cool until warm.

6. STEP 6

   

   Then add the sifted flour and knead the dough.

7. STEP 7

   

   The finished dough is soft, plastic and does not stick to your hands. Leave it to sit for a while. If the cakes will not be baked right away, you can put the dough in a bag in the refrigerator and store for a week.

8. STEP 8

   

   Roll out the dough on a sheet of parchment and cut out the future size of the cakes with a cookie cutter. Remove excess dough. Place in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees, for 3-5 minutes. Honey dough is prepared very quickly. The blanks will turn golden. Cool them down. The number of finished cakes will depend on the selected diameter of the blanks.

9. STEP 9

   

   For the cream, whip the cream, with a fat content of 33%, with powdered sugar until a fluffy, stable cream. Then stir the cream cheese into the cream.

10. STEP 10

    

    Using a pastry bag, pipe the finished cream onto the honey cakes. If desired, you can add jam to the center. I really like the combination with blackcurrant.

11. STEP 11

    

    Assemble the cakes completely, place in a sealable container and refrigerate overnight. In a closed container, all the moisture from the cream will be soaked into the cakes and will make them soft and juicy.

12. STEP 12

    

    Ready-made cakes can be decorated with any fruit or berries. Enjoy your treat!

Not only cakes can be honey. Honey cakes with raspberry cream and jam 🤤Tender, not cloying and very soft! It's just my weakness. For me, the best cream for honey cakes is homemade sour cream, so here I deviated from the recipe and made a light and airy sour cream to my liking. When assembling the cakes, I wanted to add some other interesting accent, and since I knew that I would be decorating with raspberries, I added a little raspberry jam on top of the sour cream - this was exactly what I wanted. I’m writing this now and my mouth is watering at the memory of these cakes. Don’t even hesitate, follow the recipe and everything will work out! There may be more dough, my advice is to use the leftovers to bake cookies. Not cloying, caramel-like - they'll go great with tea! Thank you for such a beautiful and delicious recipe!
