  • Butter - 50 g
  • Sugar - 100 g
  • Honey - 50 g
  • Egg - 1 pc

 

Cream:

  • Cottage cheese - 250 g

Preparation:

 

  1. Place the honey and butter in a water bath and stir until the butter is completely melted.
  2. Add baking soda while stirring constantly until the mixture turns caramel in color. Remove from the water bath and let it cool to a warm state.
  3. In a separate container, beat the egg with sugar until fluffy.
  4. Add the egg mixture to the warm honey mixture, mix until smooth, and add sifted flour. Knead the smooth dough.
  5. Divide the dough into 6 pieces, roll out each cake layer with a diameter of 18 cm, prick with a fork and bake for 4-6 minutes at 180°C until golden brown. Bake offcuts of the dough in the same way. Then crumble them into fine crumbs to cover the top of the cake.
  6. Let the cake layers cool and soak them with a mixture of water and honey in a ratio of 2:1.
  7. Beat the cottage cheese, heavy cream, and powdered sugar until thick cream.
  8. Assemble the cake, cover it with the remaining cream and sprinkle with crumbs from the cake layers.
