Add it to the mixture of eggs and granulated sugar. Now you can add melted butter and pour in kefir. The very last stage is the gradual addition of flour. Don't forget to sift it before adding it to the dough. All that remains is to carefully pour in the cocoa powder and mix thoroughly. You can also add one packet of vanillin (optional).
The dough will have the consistency of liquid sour cream. By the way, if you take the recipe with sour cream as a basis for preparing such a dessert as the Negro’s Kiss cake, it will also taste simply divine. Try, experiment and find your own dough recipe for this wonderful dessert.
Pour the batter into prepared pans, greased with butter, and place in the oven. The cakes bake very quickly. You can make several thin ones at once, or you can bake one large cake and then cut it into three parts. Any option is acceptable. Oven temperature - 200 degrees, cooking time - from 30 to 40 minutes. Check the readiness of the biscuit base for the cake using a long wooden skewer. If there is no dough on it, then everything is perfectly baked from the inside. If the stick is wet, then the baking process of the cakes should be extended.
