      Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and grind them into cakes 3—4 mm thick.

      Bake the cakes in the oven at 180 degrees until golden brown. Cool the cakes.

      Melt the butter, add honey and bring to a boil. Cook the syrup for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.

      Chop the nuts and fry in a dry frying pan.

      Mix sour cream with nuts.

      Assemble the honey cake by layering the cakes with sour cream. Lubricate the top and sides with cream too.

      Cover the honey cake with the remaining cream. Sprinkle coarsely chopped nuts on top and refrigerate for 3—4 hours until the cake is soaked in cream.

      Fruit cake

      Fruit cake is a delicious delicacy that is sure to please both children and adults. This cake is light and refreshing thanks to the addition of fresh fruit. We used ripe berries in this recipe, but you can also add any other fruit you like.

      Ingredients:

      2 eggs

      120 g sugar

      120 g flour

      1 tsp baking powder

      1 tsp vanilla sugar

      300 g butter

      200 g sour cream

      300 g fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries)

      200 g fresh fruit (kiwi, peaches, oranges)

      200 ml whipped cream

      50 g chocolate (for decoration)

      Instructions:

      Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a 24cm baking dish with parchment paper.

      Separate the eggs into whites and yolks. Beat the whites with half the sugar until stiff peaks form.

      In another bowl, beat the butter, remaining half the sugar and vanilla until fluffy. Add yolks and flour, mix.

      Gradually add the beaten egg whites to the batter, stirring gently to maintain a fluffy texture.

      Place the dough in the prepared pan and place in the oven for 25—30 minutes. Check the doneness of the cake with a toothpick – if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.

      Cool the cake on a wire rack and cut it horizontally into two layers.

      Whip the cream until peaks form.

      After spreading sour cream on one half of the cake, distribute the berries evenly on it. Place the second cake layer on top.

      Decorate the cake with the remaining fruit and whipped cream.

      Melt the chocolate and decorate the cake by creating patterns.

      Transfer the cake to a plate and chill in the refrigerator until serving.

      200 g flour

      200 g sugar

      6 eggs

      100 g cocoa powder

      1 tsp baking powder

      1 tsp vanilla extract

      For cream:

      300 g dark chocolate

      200 g cream

      100 g butter

      2 tbsp. fresh mint

      1 tsp vanilla extract

      Preparation:

      Let’s start by preparing the biscuit. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Beat eggs with sugar until bright foam forms. Gradually add flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly.

      Pour the batter into the baking pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 30—35 minutes. Check the readiness of the biscuit by inserting a toothpick into it. If it comes out dry, the biscuit is ready. Let it cool completely.

      Now let’s start preparing the cream. Melt the chocolate along with the butter in a water bath. Add fresh mint and vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.

      In a separate container, beat the cream and sugar until stiff. Gradually add whipped cream to chocolate mixture and mix gently.

      Now let’s assemble the cake. Cut the biscuit horizontally into two parts. Spread half the cream onto one half of the sponge, then cover with the other half of the sponge and spread the remaining cream evenly. Make sure the cream is thoroughly distributed throughout the cake.

      Decorate the cake with fresh mint and chocolate chips. Place the cake in the refrigerator for several hours to allow the cream to harden.
