Description

Perfect for tea and coffee. "Medovik" is a classic dessert loved by both adults and children. Despite the cake consisting of many layers, the layers bake quickly and easily. If you're looking for a foolproof dessert option, I highly recommend this one.

Instructions

  1. 1

    6. The cake layers bake very quickly—about 5-6 minutes for the first one, and the following ones slightly less. The baked layers need to be thoroughly cooled.

    7. To make the cream, beat the softened butter with condensed milk.

  8. 8

    10. Sprinkle the prepared dessert with it on all sides. This is a delicious homemade honey cake "Medovik" that turned out so appetizing. Let it sit for a couple of hours (or preferably overnight) to soak before serving.
