Three-layer cake
Description
The baking is simple and quick. Take a closer look at this three-layer cake recipe. It's not difficult to make, but requires a bit of effort, as each cake layer has its own filling. In addition, you'll need to prepare sour cream frosting and cook the glaze. The cake layers look very appetizing even without soaking, but when spread with cream and covered with glaze, the taste exceeds even the boldest expectations. The cake turns out tender and fragrant. Serve it cooled or slightly warm.
