Instructions
Step 1
We make white cakes. Beat the eggs with sugar, gradually add the rest of the ingredients. The dough should be thick, like sour cream. We bake 4 cakes.
Step 2
Making poppy cakes. Boil the poppy seeds, grind with sugar, honey, yolks. Add sour cream, semolina, margarine, soda, vanillin, nuts, raisins, mix. Add whipped egg whites, knead again. Pour into a greased and floured dish and bake for about an hour. Cut in half lengthwise.
Step 3
We make dark cakes. Beat the eggs with sugar, add sour cream, cocoa, cookie powder, flour, vanillin in turn. We bake 2 leather. We coat 4 cakes with custard and put them in the following order: dark - white - poppy - white. We also coat and fold the remaining 4 cakes. We take out to the cold.
Step 4
Cut the cooled cakes in half. Three halves are “cars”, the fourth is “steam locomotive”.
Lubricate the sides with cream and sprinkle with coconut. Otherwise, the decoration of the "train" depends only on your imagination.
