Turtle cake is a delicious dessert that is simple and easy to prepare.

You can take any cream for the turtle: custard, from condensed milk, butter, creamy, but sour cream is especially successful. It quickly soaks the cakes, fills them with taste, the cake turns out to be very tender and just melt in your mouth.
Classic tortoise cake is prepared from biscuit dough... Small cakes are formed from it, which are baked in the oven. Since the deposition of crumpets on a baking sheet takes time, for a safety net in the dough ripper is added... You can take a special baking powder or simply extinguish the baking soda. You can make lazy turtle options with cookies or rolls. The recipes can be found below.
The cream is made from sour cream... It is advisable to use a thick product with good fat content. But you can take less high-calorie sour cream and add a special thickener. It is sold in the baking section. Not very much sugar is added to the cream, usually no more than a third of the total mass. For taste, put various fillers.

A cake with divine taste and indescribable tenderness. Prepared on the basis of biscuit crumpets.
Ingredients
180 grams of sugar;
180 grams of flour;
1 tsp soda.
Into the cream:
800 grams of sour cream;
A spoonful of brandy;
200 grams of powder.
You will also need 150 grams of nuts and the same amount of prunes.
Preparation
1. Beat eggs with sugar in foam, add flour and slaked soda. Knead the dough and put on a baking sheet small crumpets, about 5 cm in diameter. We bake.
2. Mix sour cream with powder, add brandy and put the cream in the refrigerator.

The tortoise biscuit dough is not stored. It must be molded immediately after preparation. Otherwise, the cakes will be dense, tough, with low porosity. If you suddenly have dough left or there is no time to bake the crumpets, just pour it into the mold and bake one biscuit cake. And even easier - use a multicooker and go about your business.
Do you want the cake to play with cheerful colors? Cover the tortoise shell with colored sugar paste. Or you can simply add food coloring simply to the cream intended for finishing. Or draw the veins of the shell with melted chocolate, lay out patterns of chopped fruits and nuts.
In order for the icing to freeze faster and not melt the sour cream, the cake must be well cooled. Never cover freshly made dessert. After melting, the glaze can also be cooled, but not allowed to solidify. The mass must be fluid.
