It is necessary
- 6 eggs
- 1 tsp slaked soda
- 1 cup of sugar
- 2 cups of flour
- walnuts - 50 g
- For the cream you will need:
- 2 cups sour cream
- 1 cup sugar
- 200 g butter
- For glaze you will need:
- 1 glass of milk
- 200 g butter
- 250-300 g cocoa
- 1 cup of sugar
Instructions
Step 1
Break eggs into a bowl, pour a glass of sugar and beat with a mixer until a thick foam forms, extinguish a spoonful of soda with acetic acid and pour into the dough, then add flour and continue to beat. We should have a dough similar in consistency to a pancake.
It is necessary to bake the tortillas in a preheated oven. The baking sheet on which we form the cakes must first be greased with margarine or butter. The scones should look like pancakes. After putting the dough on a baking sheet, put it in the oven for 5-7 minutes to brown the dough. After that, remove our cakes from the oven and let them cool.
Step 2
While the cakes are cooling, prepare the cream.
Put two glasses of sour cream, 200 grams of melted butter and a glass of sugar in a deep bowl, add vanillin to taste. After all, beat our mixture until smooth for 5-7 minutes, until the sugar dissolves.
Step 3
We begin to shape our turtle. The cakes are alternately dipped into the cream, leaving for 1-3 minutes to soak, not all cakes must be dipped into the cream, a few must be left dry. On a large platter, lay out the cakes in several layers so that the silhouette resembles a turtle, forming a turtle, fill it with the remaining cream and put in the refrigerator. The cake should harden.
Step 4
While the cake is cooling, prepare the icing.
Pour a glass of milk, cocoa, sugar, butter into a bowl, put on fire and, stirring, heat. You should get a thick mass.
Fill the frozen base of the cake with warm icing, leaving the slippers, ponytail and head clean. Then sprinkle with walnuts, then return to the refrigerator for 4-5 hours.
You can also decorate the turtle with dried fruits, kiwi, etc. It all depends on your imagination.
