Valentine's Day Cake

1. Eggs are divided into whites and yolks. Pour a third of the sugar into the proteins, beat them with a mixer to strong stable peaks.

2. Pour the remaining sugar to the yolks. Beat them white. Then we combine it with protein mass.

3. In the same bowl, sift the flour. Flour can be pre-sifted a couple of times. This will make the sponge cake airy.

4. Mix the ingredients with a silicone spatula. It is important to mix carefully, with movements from top to bottom, so as not to "plant" the dough.

5. Melt the butter, then let it cool down a little to a warm state. Gently introduce the oil into the dough, mix. Hot oil can not be introduced into the dough!

6. The baking dish in the form of a heart is lubricated with a piece of butter, lightly powdered with flour. Pour the dough into it. We send the mold to the oven preheated to 180 degrees.

7. Bake the sponge cake for 30-40 minutes. It all depends on the type of oven. The finished biscuit is allowed to cool in the form, only after that we extract it.

8. Put butter at room temperature in a bowl. Here we pour powdered sugar. Beat with a mixer at maximum speed for about 10-15 minutes.

9. In the resulting lush mass, we spread the cooled cheese. Re-whisk. The cream is ready!

10. Cut the sponge cake into three cakes. Peel the bananas, cut into circles. We smear the cakes with cream, make a layer of bananas. Thus we collect the cake.

11. And now you need to align the cake under the mastic. We will align it with ganache. Melt the chocolate in a water bath or in the microwave, as convenient. Then let the chocolate cool down a little, after which we introduce butter at room temperature into it.

12. We leave the cream in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes so that its texture stabilizes. It will become denser. And now they can level the surface of the cake. We align it twice: a rough version and a finishing one. For leveling, we use a culinary spatula.

13. When the ganache on the cake freezes, you can continue to work. Mastic is rolled out into a thin layer, not clearly according to the size of the cake, but with a margin. Then we cover the cake with it, smooth the sides, and cut off the excess.

14. You can decorate the cake according to your taste and desire. Thematically, hearts are begging. They can also be made from red mastic.

Well, that's it. Please your loved ones! Bon appetit!
