Strawberry happiness - "fried" cake
Once ... I had an oven that was not very suitable for baking, even biscuits familiar from childhood in it did not turn out as they should (Each time I started baking holiday baking, I was nervous in the process and disappointed in the result. Until I discovered this wonderfully simple and delicious recipe, where cakes based on condensed milk are baked directly in a dry frying pan!Also, I am pleased with the endless freedom for variations - each time I add different berries and fruits to the custard, sometimes I put cocoa in the cake dough, well, the decoration on top tells the mood and contents of the refrigerator. :) The cake described here, I cooked by order of my son for his birthday: "strawberry-raspberry", as he fantasized. I added lemon impregnation on my own initiative). The birthday boy is happy. :)
Ingredients
Servings 12- condensed milk 1 bank
- egg (2 in cream, 1 in dough) 3 pcs.
- flour (+2 tablespoons in cream) 450-470 g
- milk (in cream) 500 ml
- sugar (in cream) 1 tbsp.
- butter (in cream) 200 g
- soda slaked with vinegar (in the dough) 1 tsp.
- vanilla sugar (in cream) 1 sachet
- berries and fruits according to the season and mood, how much to eat :)
- lemon for soaking cakes 1 pc.
Cooking
Step 1
Since the cakes are cooked very quickly, it is better to cook the cream right away: Pour milk into a saucepan, add 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons to it. spoons of flour, a glass of sugar and a bag of vanilla sugar, beat well with a whisk and put on a slow fire. Cook, stirring, until thickened. Add the butter to the hot cream, stir and cover with a lid so that the cream does not cool down. Add filler - in this case, I added frozen raspberries directly to the hot cream. Mix with an immersion blender.
Step 2
Now let's get to the crusts. Pour the condensed milk into a bowl, add the egg and mix well. Then add soda slaked with vinegar and gradually add flour. When it becomes difficult to mix with a spoon, transfer the dough to the work surface and knead. It is not necessary to score strongly - the dough should be soft and elastic. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll out each cake and prick with a fork in several places. Heat up a skillet over medium heat and start baking. Cakes are baked very quickly - literally 1 minute and immediately turn over. Thus, we bake all 8 cakes.
Step 3
Then we take a plate of a suitable size and cut off all the cakes. We will need trimmings for sprinkling the cake. We begin to lubricate the cakes - first with lemon juice - directly with half a lemon we distribute over the surface, then with cream. The cream is still warm, the cake will soak very quickly. Then the top of the cake and the sides are also well lubricated. Sprinkle with crumbs. Decorate with fresh strawberries or any other vitamin yummy. The cake is ready.
Step 4
We keep ourselves in control and do not attack immediately and alone on the enticing fragrant delicacy. We are waiting for relatives. Breaking the applause.
