I think you know a cake called "Milk Girl"? Now this is a very fashionable dessert! True, for me personally the name of the cake sounds wild, but there is nothing to be done: this is the translation from German.
So, the cakes for this cake are prepared using condensed milk. And why not cook cakes from boiled condensed milk? They taste like caramel!
Such cakes can be layered with any cream: custard, chocolate custard, sour cream, cottage cheese, butter, cream with mascarpone ... The cakes come out incredibly tender!
From this amount of dough, you will get 7-8 cakes with a diameter of 18 cm.
The recipe uses a glass of 250 ml.
So, for the preparation of caramel cake layers for the cake, we will prepare the products according to the list.
We combine eggs and boiled condensed milk.
Whisk until smooth.
Add flour mixed with baking powder.
Knead the dough.
It will be liquid, this is normal.
It's time to bake.
There are several options here:
1. On a sheet of parchment, draw a circle with a diameter of 16-18 cm and lay out the dough.
2. But it's easier to take a detachable form or a form with a removable bottom, spread the dough, and then just remove it. I chose the second one, it's more convenient for me.
So, spread out two tablespoons of dough, evenly distribute.
Continue until all the dough is gone.
Since the cakes are baked very quickly, it is convenient to make several blanks on parchment at once, and then transfer them to a baking sheet.
Bake in an oven preheated to 190 degrees for 5 minutes.
The caramel cake is ready.
Immediately, while hot, remove it from the parchment. Since the cakes are very tender, it is convenient to help yourself with a spatula or a knife.
The surface of the finished cakes is quite sticky, so all the cakes must be shifted with parchment.
Preparations for the future cake are ready. And what will be the cream - you decide.
Happy tea!
