It is necessary
- - glass of water
- - 200 g butter
- - a glass of flour
- - 4 eggs
- - Salt
- - Condensed milk
Instructions
Step 1
To prepare the dough, put oil, water and salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil (it is thanks to a pinch of salt that the cakes are made with voids inside). Then remove the container from the heat, or turn the heat to a minimum and quickly add flour to the mixture, stirring gently until the dough is brewed, i.e. will not become a uniform consistency and will not begin to lag behind the sides of the pan. The dough should cool slightly, then beat the eggs into it one by one, mixing thoroughly.
Step 2
Grease a baking sheet with oil and spread the dough on a sheet. You can use a pastry syringe for this, or you can form small balls using two spoons dipped in water. In this case, the shape of the cakes depends solely on your imagination. Remember that cakes will grow in the oven, so you need to spread them out at short intervals.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 200 ° C and leave the cakes to bake for 30 minutes. Then the temperature should be reduced to 180 ° C and baked for about 10-15 minutes. It is better not to open the oven during cooking so that the dough does not fall. After turning off the oven, the cakes must be left warm for another 5 minutes, then you can start filling.
Step 4
Cream is used for the filling. To prepare it, beat the butter, gradually adding condensed milk to it until smooth. Use a pastry syringe to fill the cakes with cream, or simply cut off the top of the cakes and fill with the cream with a teaspoon.
