A wonderful, celebratory dessert… a dessert reminiscent of my grandparents’ house… I got the recipe for the cake from one of my aunts, whom I thank in this way… My father’s family consists of 5 brothers, who had the honor of give grandma 7 wonderful granddaughters, all of them more… I took over the culinary tradition of this wonderful family from my grandmother and two of my aunts, who are from the same village… Next, I leave you to enjoy a delicious cake , as only we do…
Ingredients for the sheets:
- 14 tablespoons of oil
- 14 spoons of sugar
- 8 tablespoons of milk
- 4 spoons of honey
- 4 eggs
- 2 teaspoons of baking soda
- 500-600 g sifted flour
Ingredients for the cream:
- 1 liter of milk
- 350 g of sugar
- 4 sachets of vanilla sugar
- 7 tablespoons of flour
- 200 g margarine
- 1 large jar of apricot jam or jelly
Method of preparation:
1. In a double-bottomed pot, mix all the ingredients for the sheets, minus the flour. Put on a low heat and stir continuously, until the creamy composition changes color, from yellow to caramel… Remove from the heat and let it cool…
2. For the cream, mix all the solid ingredients. Then pour the milk in a thin stream until everything is incorporated. Place on a steam bath and mix until it thickens and becomes the consistency of pudding. Leave to cool…
3. Mix the cooled creamy composition with flour as much as it contains, and divide into 4 equal parts. A sheet is spread on the back of the pan or, in my case, on the base of the rectangular cake pan without a ring (greased with margarine and lined with flour).
4. Place in the oven preheated to 175 degrees Celsius for 5-6 minutes. The same is done with the other sheets…
5. Mix the milk cream with the margarine. Assemble as follows: 1 sheet, milk cream, 1 sheet, apricot jelly, 1 sheet, milk cream, 1 sheet. Garnish with powdered sugar and serve after 2-3 hours.
Enjoy it with love! Good appetite!
