Instructions
Step 1
We begin to prepare the dough. Break eggs into a bowl and grind them with sugar. You should get a white, fluffy foam. Add sour cream. Remove the butter from the refrigerator beforehand to keep it soft. Cut into small cubes. We mix everything. Add soda, which we extinguish with vinegar. Now we put in the flour. We mix. The dough should be elastic. Wrap the dough in cling film and put it in the freezer for 1 hour. The dough should be firm.
Step 2
We take a grater and rub the dough. We lay it out on a baking sheet covered with paper. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Bake the dough for 20 minutes, until it acquires a golden hue. The dough sticks together into a cake. We take the cake out of the oven and break it into pieces.
Step 3
Now we are preparing the cream. Cut the butter into small pieces and add condensed milk to it. Take a mixer and beat well until you get a cream. Add the cream to the broken crust and mix. Put a slide on a platter - the base of the Christmas tree. Leave on for a few hours to soak the base.
Step 4
Add the cream to the broken crust and mix. We spread a slide on a platter - the base of the Christmas tree. Leave on for a few hours to soak the base.
Step 5
To make the protein custard, we need a small saucepan. Cooking syrup - mix
sugar with water. We are waiting for the syrup to boil, add lemon juice, let it boil for another 3 minutes. Meanwhile, take the eggs out of the refrigerator and separate the whites from the yolks. Beat the whites until fluffy. And gradually pour in hot syrup, continuing to beat.
Step 6
The mass should be dense and keep its shape. You can use green food coloring to give a green color to a white protein cream. To do this, add the dye to the cream and mix. We take a pastry syringe and fill it with cream. We decorate a slide of dough, forming stars from the cream.
Step 7
The Christmas tree cake is ready.
