Christmas Cake Clock

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Ingredients.

2. Step 2:

   

   Wash and soak the raisins well.

3. Step 3:

   

   Preparing a sponge cake. Beat eggs with sugar.

4. Step 4:

   

   Separately mix sour cream and condensed milk (half a jar), add to the egg mixture and mix well.

5. Step 5:

   

   Add the sifted flour with slaked soda, mix until smooth.

6. Step 6:

   

   Divide the dough into 2 parts. In one add cocoa and chopped walnuts, mix. Add raisins to the light dough, mix.

7. Step 7:

   

   Grease the mold with oil and pour out the dough. Bake each cake for 30 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees. Then soak the cakes with sweet water.

8. Step 8:

   

   We prepare a cream for smearing the cakes. Softened butter is whipped with a mixer, gradually pouring in condensed milk, whisk until smooth. We put it in the refrigerator while the cakes are being prepared.

9. Step 9:

   

   Smear the cooled cakes with cream.

10. Step 10:

    

    We also smear the top and sides of the cake. Then we proceed to the design of the cake. Sprinkle the sides of the cake with biscuit crumbs (walnuts are possible).

12. Step 11:

    

    For stands for numbers, I baked one thin cake. Just mix all these ingredients and bake at 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes. I measured the circumference of the 12 coasters that would need to be cut. The round shape served me as a lid from a jar with tablets with a diameter of about 3 cm, I cut it out.

13. Step 12:

    

    Since the cream of condensed milk and butter was difficult to spread on small circles, I made another cream, whipping sour cream and sugar.

14. Step 13:

    

    Rolled the coasters in sour cream and put them on the cake. The remaining cream smeared the middle of the cake.

15. Step 14:

    

    Smeared the middle of the cake with the remaining cream.

16. Step 15:

    

    For the numbers, I melted the chocolate in a water bath.

17. Step 16:

    

    Apply chocolate with a brush or just pour and flatten with a spoon on a dense file so that the numbers are then easily separated. And put it in the refrigerator for 10 minutes so that the chocolate freezes.

18. Step 17:

    

    Measure how long the arrows will be and draw with the end of the knife. Then draw the numbers, separate them from the file, and spread them on the cake. While you are cutting, the chocolate will melt, you will need to put it in the cold again for 5 minutes.

19. Step 18:

    

    Send the finished New Year's Eve cake to the refrigerator to solidify the cream.

20. Step 19:

    

    Bon appetit!
