Cooking
Step 1
Put the cherries in a bowl, sprinkle with sugar and leave for 1 hour to let the juice flow. Drain in a colander and let drain well. (You don't need juice in this recipe)! Instead of fresh or frozen, you can use canned. Cherries need to be thrown into a colander and let the syrup drain.
Step 2
Combine sour cream with baking powder and vanilla sugar and mix well. Beat softened butter until fluffy with a pinch of salt, without stopping beating, add sugar in a thin stream, add sour cream and mix. Add the sifted flour and knead into a soft dough. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 40-60 minutes.
Step 3
After the time has elapsed, release the dough from the cling film, knead a little and divide into 15 equal parts. Roll out each piece with a rolling pin into a rectangular strip 20 by 7 cm. Put the cherries close to each other on each strip and pinch the edges well.
Step 4
Put the resulting "logs" seam down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. It is desirable that all "logs" turn out to be the same size. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 200 degrees. Take the logs out of the oven and cool.
Step 5
Prepare sour cream. Beat chilled sour cream with sugar for 15-20 minutes at maximum mixer speed, until thickened and increased in volume. Put 5 "logs" on a dish and grease with cream, put 4 "logs" on top and grease with cream again. Next - 3 "logs" + cream, 2 "logs" + cream, and finally 1 "log" and cream.
Step 6
Cover the entire cake with the remaining cream. Decorate as you wish. Put in the refrigerator and let it brew for at least 12 hours.
Step 7
Serve in portions with coffee or tea. This cake, with its beauty and taste, will surely pay off your efforts. Enjoy your meal!
