Sponge cake with kiwi and walnuts

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 6 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   You can start by preparing the cream. Wash the lemon well in hot water.

2. STEP 2

   

   Beat the chilled egg white with half the volume of sugar into a thick foam.

3. STEP 3

   

   Whip the cream with the rest of the sugar in a separate container. For the cream to be successful, the whipped cream and egg whites need to be at approximately the same temperature! We combine them, carefully mixing with folding movements. Prepare gelatin according to instructions, melt in warm water, cool to room temperature. Using a fine grater, finely grate the zest from the lemon. Add gelatin and zest to the cream, mix gently again, let cool until sour cream thickens.

4. STEP 4

   

   Products for making cakes. Be sure to sift the flour. Melt the butter and cool.

5. STEP 5

   

   Break the eggs into a deep bowl and beat with a whisk or mixer.

6. STEP 6

   

   Mix beaten eggs with condensed milk into a homogeneous mass.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add cooled melted butter

8. STEP 8

   

   and then – sifted flour with baking powder.

9. STEP 9

   

   Divide the resulting dough into 3 equal parts. Having previously greased each mold with a thin layer of butter and sprinkled with breadcrumbs, bake 3 cakes in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 20 minutes.

10. STEP 10

    

    Cool the cakes, then trim their edges, if necessary (I don’t cut them) according to the stencil. If there are scraps, dry them in the oven and grate them.

11. STEP 11

    

    Dissolve the jam in warm water, add cognac, stir thoroughly.

12. STEP 12

    

    Soak the cakes with the resulting mixture.

13. STEP 13

    

    Cake decorating products. Fry the nuts a little in a dry frying pan without oil and cool. Wash the kiwi thoroughly. Pour instant dry jelly powder into a small saucepan.

14. STEP 14

    

    Place the cakes on top of each other, sandwiching them with cream. Apply a thin layer of cream to the top cake layer and brush the sides of the cake with it. We put some of the cream into a pastry syringe and make bumps along the edge of the top cake (you can also make a twisted path). Cover the sides of the cake with lightly fried and pre-chopped nuts (or a mixture of nuts with chopped cake scraps).

15. STEP 15

    

    Peel the kiwi and cut into thin slices. Place the kiwi slices overlapping onto the top crust. You can additionally place any berries or fruits in the center of the cake. Pour dry instant jelly powder into a saucepan with water and prepare the jelly according to the instructions on the package. Fill the top of the cake with the resulting transparent jelly for cakes, put the cake in the refrigerator for several hours. After it sits, it will become even tastier. Bon appetit!
