Pancake cake with curd cream

Description

Pancake cake with cottage cheese cream is not just a dessert of banal pancakes. This is a real masterpiece of confectionery art, which is definitely worth the effort spent on it. Just remember that in order to get the perfect cream in this case, you will certainly need high-quality fatty cottage cheese, for example, natural plast. An important distinguishing feature of this cake from many other similar ones is the use of yeast pancakes, not unleavened ones. In our opinion, this is a very wise decision, since they are more porous, airy, so they are better saturated with curd cream, as a result of which the pancake cake acquires a uniquely delicate texture and amazing taste.

Cooking

Step 1

Prepare pancake batter. Heat milk (200 ml) to 36–38 °C. Add 1 tsp. sugar, yeast and stir. Leave in a warm place until a fluffy yeast cap forms.

Step 2

In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the remaining sugar and salt until fluffy. Add 250 ml of the remaining milk, melted butter, vegetable oil and beat again.

Sift flour for pancake dough with cocoa powder. While beating with a mixer on low speed, pour in the remaining warm milk. Stir until a smooth mass is obtained.

Add yeast mixture and mix thoroughly. Cover the bowl with cling film and place in a warm place for 1 hour. Then stir with a spatula, cover again and let the pancake dough rise for an hour. Stir no more!

Step 5

From the resulting pancake dough, periodically lubricating the pan with oil, bake thin pancakes. Put the finished ones in a large bowl or pan, covering with a lid.
