Sour cream cookie cake with roasted walnuts

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare the products listed in the ingredients list. You will need fresh high-quality sour cream (20-25% fat content), sugar, peeled walnuts and any shortbread cookies. I took the "Jubilee bouquet. You can use oatmeal, ordinary square cookies with the aroma of melted milk, sugar or sweet cracker.

2. Step 2:

   

   Combine sour cream with sugar in a container. Stir with a fork or whisk so that the sugar crystals completely dissolve. Instead of sugar, you can add a sweetener according to the instructions. Sour cream can be replaced with mascarpone cheese. Then the taste of dessert will resemble tiramisu. For flavor, add vanilla sugar (1 tbsp. l.) or vanilla (on the tip of a knife). Be sure to read the instructions. If used incorrectly, vanillin can give bitterness and spoil the taste.

3. Step 3:

   

   Which form will work best? I use a glass square shape. But any one will do, as long as it has high edges and all the layers of the cake fit. If you have a round split form, cover it with cling film so that the cream does not leak out. First, put a couple of spoons (2-3 tablespoons) of sour cream on the bottom of the dishes. Smooth the surface with a spoon.

4. Step 4:

   

   Lay out part of the cookies with the first layer, leaving no gaps between them. I got three rows of three cookies in each. You can have more or less. Everything will depend on the form you use.

6. Step 5:

   

   Continue to spread layers of sour cream and cookies. The last one should be a thick layer of cream. It should completely cover the cookie, so that it does not peek through.

7. Step 6:

   

   Sprinkle the top of the cake with lightly toasted walnuts in a dry frying pan and then chopped with a knife or in a blender. Optionally, you can sprinkle cocoa powder, coconut chips, cookie crumbs ... Cover the top of the mold with food wrap.

8. Step 7:

   

   Put the cake in the refrigerator overnight. During this time, it will be well soaked and will be even tastier. The next morning, take out, remove the film. Cut into serving slices. Serve with tea or coffee.
