Let this delicious pastry be a surprise for your loved one on February 14th!
Baking products:
100 g of regular butter, 180 ml of icing sugar, 2 eggs, 1 tsp. vanilla essence, 240 ml flour, 200 ml jam.
Preparation:
Beat butter (it should be at room temperature) with sugar until creamy. Separate the yolks and add them, as well as the vanilla essence to the butter. Mix everything until smooth, gradually adding flour (the dough should turn out to be elastic, not stick to your hands (be guided by this sign by adding flour, a little more or less). Divide the dough into two parts, roll them into balls, wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
Put baking paper on a baking sheet and distribute the larger part of the dough over the baking sheet, making small sides.
Spread the jam on the dough. It is desirable that the jam is dense and thick. Jam from those berries that you like best, for example, strawberry, cherry, cranberry, cloudberry, gooseberry jam, as well as apple jam, and so on, as your fantasy tells you, will do. On the coarsest grater, grate the rest of the dough on top of the cake.
Put the pie in a preheated oven (up to 180 degrees) for about 20 minutes. The cake should be browned, in which case it is ready. Cut the pie into small slices before serving.
