“Smart” cake is an unusual and not quite familiar dessert. This is the perfect sweet pastry for busy housewives. With a minimal set of available products, the batter magically transforms into a real cake. Ideally, it consists of three layers: on top is an airy sponge cake, in the middle is a delicate custard, and on the bottom is a jelly casserole.
Ingredients
Warm milk – 500 ml
Eggs – 4 pcs.
Sugar – 150 g
Butter – 125 g
Flour – 115 g
Vanillin – 1 pinch
Salt – 1 pinch
Water – 1 tbsp
Powdered sugar – for sprinkling
Directions
Separate the whites from the yolks. Beat the yolks with sugar, vanilla and water with a mixer until the mass turns white. Add melted butter to the mixture and beat again with a mixer. Add flour sifted 3 times to the yolk-oil mixture in parts, in three steps, whisking thoroughly each time.
Pour half of the warm milk there, beat, then add the remaining milk and beat again. Add a pinch of salt to the whites and begin the whisking process with thoroughly washed mixer beaters so that no fat gets in, starting at low turns.
Gently, in three steps, introduce proteins into the dough, gently stirring the mass first with a spoon (or fork) from the bottom up, and then with a whisk (the mixer cannot be used).
Grease the form with butter and sprinkle with flour. Pour the dough into it. Bake “smart” cake in an oven preheated to 165-175 degrees, for 1 hour 30 minutes. Then let it cool completely in the oven and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
When baking, the Magic Cake itself is divided into 3 layers – an airy sponge cake, a liquid custard, and a thicker custard. Anyone who loves custard and soft biscuits will love this dessert. Very tasty, tender, the pie just melts in your mouth! I cooked i...
