Preparation steps
Step 1
Bake the cake layers in an oven preheated to 180°C for approximately 5-7 minutes, until golden brown. Let them cool completely. Crumble one of the layers into fine crumbs – these will be used to decorate the cake. For the cream, blend condensed milk, cocoa, butter, and vanilla extract in a blender until light and smooth.
Step 2
Begin assembling the cake: soak each cake layer with cherry syrup and generously spread cream on top. Don't forget to cover the sides of the cake with cream and sprinkle them with crumbs. For the glaze, melt chocolate with vegetable oil. Decorate the cake with whole almonds (4 pcs.), then chop the remaining almonds and sprinkle them over the top of the cake. Finish your masterpiece by drizzling it with chocolate glaze.
For dough:
Step 1
In a saucepan, combine the butter, fragrant honey, and sugar. This mixture will form the base for your magical dough.
Step 2
Melt this mixture in a double boiler until it becomes uniform and smooth. Then, add baking soda, mix thoroughly, and gently heat until a light foam appears. This will give the dough an airy texture.
Step 3
Remove the mixture from the heat and allow it to cool slightly. Then, incorporate the eggs one by one, gradually adding the sifted flour and cocoa. Knead into a soft and elastic dough. Divide it into 8-10 equal portions and refrigerate for 30 minutes to make it more pliable.
Step 4
Roll out each portion of dough into a thin layer. For a perfect shape, you can use a plate as a template (I made crusts with a diameter of 20 cm).
