Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
To prepare a delicious cake with delicate sponge cake and shortbread, we prepare the necessary products. Place two hundred and fifty grams of sour cream in a saucepan, add eighty grams of sugar, one chicken egg, twenty-five grams of starch sifted through a sieve and mix all the ingredients well until smooth.

Step 2

Step 2
Bring the cream in a saucepan to a boil, placing it on the stove and stirring continuously, then add vanilla essence at the tip of a knife and stir. Let the cream cool in the saucepan and cover with a plastic bag.

Step 3

Step 3
Prepare shortbread dough and place one hundred grams of butter in a deep bowl. Add eighty grams of sugar, two chicken yolks to the softened butter in a bowl and mix all the ingredients well with a mixer. Sift one hundred and fifty grams of flour through a sieve, add vanillin on the tip of a knife, a pinch of salt, a third of a teaspoon of soda, which has been quenched with lemon juice, and knead the dough.

Step 4

Step 4
Knead well, forming an elastic dough with your hands and collecting into a lump.

Step 5

Step 5
We divide the resulting lump into two parts, which we roll out on a baking sheet with a rolling pin.

Step 6

Step 6
We send the rolled out cakes to the oven preheated to two hundred and twenty degrees for ten minutes and carefully remove from the pan when they have cooled completely.

Step 7

Step 7
Prepare the chocolate ganache and pour the white chocolate into a saucepan in a water bath, stir and melt it completely. Add one hundred twenty-five grams of butter, which we dissolve and mix with chocolate.

Prepare the sour cream and put one hundred grams of butter in a bowl and beat with a mixer until white. Add the entire sour cream base from the saucepan to the butter, one tablespoon at a time, and stir until smooth.

Step 10

Step 10
We cut the pre-prepared sponge cake into three layers and, after placing a little cream on a festive plate, carefully place the first one. Apply a good layer of cream on top of the biscuit and distribute it evenly with a spatula.

Step 11

Step 11
We put a shortbread cake on top of the cream and grease it with a thin layer of strawberry jam, then we put the second sponge cake on it and apply the cream on it, which we distribute evenly.

Step 12

Step 12
We evenly lay out the shortbread on top, onto which we apply more strawberry jam. We finish with the third sponge cake, onto which we apply the remaining cream and distribute it on top. Then put the cake in the refrigerator for thirty minutes.

Step 13

Step 13
Beat the chocolate ganache that has been stabilized with a mixer one more time and apply it in an even layer on top of the cake, level it with a spatula and grease the sides, which we also level.

Step 14

Gently iron the mastic on top with an iron.

Step 16
