Step 2
Transfer the dough to a baking sheet, covering it with baking paper. Bake the biscuit for 7 minutes.
Step 3
Pour 50 ml of cold water over the gelatin, and after swelling, send it to a water bath and keep on fire until it is liquid.
Step 4
Use fresh 33% mousse cream to make Valentine's cakes especially soft and delicate in taste. Beat them until firmly fluffy, adding granulated sugar in small portions.
Step 5
Rub the cottage cheese into the creamy mass and mix everything well until completely homogeneous, then pour in the gelatin and put the mousse in the refrigerator for 7-10 minutes.
Step 6
Start making Valentines cakes with your own hands, proceed very carefully. When the biscuit has cooled, cut 14 circles out of it with a mold or glass.
Step 7
Put the frozen, slightly cooled mousse in a rather thick layer between a couple of biscuit blanks.
Step 8
Roast the walnuts and grind in a coffee grinder.
Step 9
Brush the top of each Valentine cake with any fruit jam.
