Cake
Description
The baking is simple and quick. 1. The recipe for "Apsheronsky" cake is quite easy. First, carefully separate the whites from the yolks of all 8 eggs. 2. Combine the whites with a cup of sugar and whisk thoroughly until stiff peaks form. Add a pinch of citric acid or a little lemon juice during the process. 3. Separately, whisk the yolks with a cup of sugar. Gradually add flour, making sure no lumps form. 4. Chop the nuts with a knife (so that medium-sized pieces remain). Add them to the yolk mixture and mix thoroughly. 5. Combine the egg white and yolk mixtures, gently stirring. Divide the batter into 3 parts and bake 3 cake layers in a preheated oven. Each layer bakes for about 25 minutes. 6. Meanwhile, whisk the butter with condensed milk. If desired, add about 50 milliliters of rum or brandy to the cream, if the cake is intended only for adults. Various liqueurs can also be used. 7. Let the baked layers cool completely, then spread with the cream. 8. Decorate the top of the "Apsheronsky" cake at home with chocolate glaze, nuts, or cake crumbs. The cake should soak for at least 3–4 hours, but ideally leave it overnight. Serve with tea or coffee.
