Egg cake
Description
Here is a delicious and simple recipe for an egg cake, so hurry up and start cooking! Only when I had completely made this cake did I realize how strongly it resembles "Napoleon," although, of course, there are differences too—and quite significant ones: here, the dough is smoother and more tender. Tasty and light. The baking is ready. Serve at the table.

Step 1
1. First, we'll make the dough. In a saucepan, bring water to a boil, adding 3 tablespoons of butter and the same amount of sugar. The sugar should dissolve completely. As soon as it boils, immediately mix it with the flour and stir.

3. Let's prepare the cream: beat the egg whites separately, and beat the yolks separately with the remaining sugar, vanilla sugar, and approximately another 3 tablespoons of flour. Heat the milk, pour the yolk mixture into it, and stir. Wait until the cream thickens. Once the cream becomes thick and has cooled sufficiently, then add the beaten egg whites.

4. Now take the dough, divide it into equal parts. Roll out each part to form a flatbread. Fry each flatbread on a dry skillet on both sides. You can also bake them in the oven, but frying on the skillet is faster. Spread each layer with cream and place the next one on top.

5. Now let the cake infuse and soak for at least a few hours. I spread the remaining cream on the sides and top, sprinkled it with coconut flakes, and decorated it with oranges. Delicious!
