Honey thin cakes

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make thin honey cakes? Prepare the products. Wash the chicken eggs well and dry them. Take a dough bowl, beat the eggs into it and pour out the sugar.

2. Step 2:

   

   Beat eggs with sugar until fluffy light mass and increase to double the volume. You can use a conventional whisk or use a mixer.

3. Step 3:

   

   Put honey and soda in a heat-resistant small saucepan. If the honey is very thick, add a couple of tablespoons of water.

4. Step 4:

   

   Put the saucepan on a small fire and, stirring constantly, warm up the mass — to foam and a light caramel smell. Do not leave it unattended — it will burn and run away.

5. Step 5:

   

   With constant stirring, pour the foamy honey in a thin trickle into the egg mixture, whisk it a little more, until a confident foam, like a good biscuit.

6. Step 6:

   

   Sift a glass of flour into a bowl with egg mass.

7. Step 7:

   

   Gently stir. This dough is for the thinnest cakes with a thickness of 1-1.5 mm in the end. Pour it into the mold with a spoon, tap the mold a little on the table to distribute the dough more evenly, and bake for 1.5-2 minutes at 170 degrees. On a warm form, the dough spreads better than on a cold one. What to lubricate is an experiment. Somewhere it is better not to lubricate, for some forms butter goes perfectly, and for some - only a fur coat made of butter and flour.

9. Step 8:

   

   I'm moving on. I sift a second cup of flour into a bowl.

10. Step 9:

    

    Stir. Neat and no frills. This is a dough for cakes with a thickness of 2.5-3.5 mm. As for me, the most ideal for a honey cake.

11. Step 10:

    

    Grease the mold and spoon out the dough.

12. Step 11:

    

    Bake the cake at 170 degrees for 3-3.5 minutes.

13. Step 12:

    

    Cover the hot cake with foil and put it under the press. With such cakes, the cake will turn out smooth, without slides and distortions.

14. Step 13:

    

    Thus, prepare all the cakes, folding one on top of the other and leaving under the press. Let them cool and stand. At least 1-2 hours, and best of all — night. The volume of these ingredients is enough for 7-8 cakes of a small rectangular cake 12 by 18 cm .
