Sour cream cake Monastery hut with cherry

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make a Monastery hut cake with cherries according to a classic recipe? First of all, we will prepare the necessary products.

2. Step 2:

   

   Cake preparation let's start with the dough. If you have a food processor with knives, then it will take only a few minutes to prepare the dough, just load all the ingredients for the dough into a bowl and mix, but my food processor has been refusing to work lately, so I kneaded it manually. To do this, sift 3 cups of flour into a bowl and grind the butter with flour to the state of fine crumbs (we take the oil immediately from the refrigerator).

3. Step 3:

   

   Beat the egg lightly with sugar, you can not add it, but then increase the amount of sour cream. We send sour cream and egg with sugar to the butter crumbs.

4. Step 4:

   

   Knead the dough

5. Step 5:

   

   If the dough turns out to be too tight, add a little sour cream, and if sticky - flour, focus on the dough itself, it should be soft not too tight, wrap the kneaded dough in a film and send it to the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

6. Step 6:

   

   While the dough is resting, the pitted cherry (or frozen or canned) is thrown on a sieve, if it is sour, then add a couple of tablespoons of sugar, focus on the taste and leave it to stack the excess juice.

7. Step 7:

   

   We take our dough from the refrigerator, divide it into several pieces. We roll out a piece into a layer, about 3 mm thick.

8. Step 8:

   

   We adjust the layer to the size of the future tubes.

9. Step 9:

   

   Cut the layer into strips for tubes about 4-5 cm wide (the dimensions depend on the size of the berry).

10. Step 10:

    

    We put a berry in one row on each strip and pinch the edges (if the dough breaks somewhere, it's okay).

12. Step 11:

    

    We spread our tubes on the deco (from this amount of dough I got 21 tubes) and bake in a preheated oven at 200 C for about 15 minutes, until a light golden.

13. Step 12:

    

    We leave our tubes to cool and let's do sour cream.

14. Step 13:

    

    For the cream, I used greasy homemade sour cream, it can be replaced with greasy cream.

15. Step 14:

    

    Add sugar and vanilla sugar to the sour cream and beat lightly until the sugar dissolves.

16. Step 15:

    

    When the sticks are completely cooled, we begin to assemble the cake.

17. Step 16:

    

    To begin with, we put a spoonful of cream on the dish and smear it, this is so that the tubes do not escape from the dish.

18. Step 17:

    

    Now we spread 6 tubes and lubricate them with sour cream on top, then 5 tubes and cream again, etc., we assemble a pyramid.

19. Step 18:

    

    When the pyramid is assembled, we level the sides with the remnants of the cream and decorate the top with a mixture of ground nuts and grated chocolate. We leave the cake to soak for a couple of hours in the refrigerator.

20. Step 19:

    

    The cake is ready! Bon appetit!
