Volcano Yogurt Cake

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   First of all, we prepare jelly for the layer in the cake.

2. Step 2:

   

   Soak gelatin in water. When it swells, heat the mixture slightly so that the gelatin dissolves.

3. Step 3:

   

   Add jam to the yogurt. I took a classic white yogurt, if fruit is used, sweeteners should not be added. You can add berries or pieces of fruit to the jelly.

4. Step 4:

   

   Pour the liquid gelatin solution into the yogurt and mix thoroughly.

5. Step 5:

   

   Cover the mold with cling film, so it will be more convenient to take out the finished jelly, pour out the liquid mixture and put it in the refrigerator until it solidifies.

6. Step 6:

   

   While the jelly freezes, we prepare a sponge cake.

7. Step 7:

   

   Eggs are whipped with sugar to a fluffy foam, then add condensed milk, mayonnaise - whisk everything together. Add baking powder and flour - mix with a mixer until smooth.

8. Step 8:

   

   Add cocoa last.

9. Step 9:

   

   Grease the frying pan with oil, dust with flour, pour out half the volume of dough and send it to the oven preheated to 200 degrees for 30-45 minutes. We check the readiness of the biscuit with a match or a wooden stick. The second half of the test does the same.

10. Step 10:

    

    Bake 2 cakes.

11. Step 11:

    

    While the cakes are baking, we prepare the cream.

12. Step 12:

    

    Rub the egg, sugar and flour until smooth.

13. Step 13:

    

    Add milk (it is better to take it already hot), mix and cook in a water bath until the first bubbles.

15. Step 14:

    

    The finished cream is cooled.

16. Step 15:

    

    Proceed to the formation of the cake. We divide each cake in half. 3 put aside.

17. Step 16:

    

    Divide one half into 12 more pieces.

18. Step 17:

    

    In order for the cake to be soft. well glued together, impregnation is needed. It is quite possible to make it from syrup of any canned compote and 100 ml of cognac. (you can not add alcohol if you cook for children)

19. Step 18:

    

    3 cakes will be needed for the base. Each cake is smeared with cream and stacked one on top of the other. We spread only cream on the bottom.

20. Step 19:

    

    The second and third are soaked with syrup and lubricated with cream.

21. Step 20:

    

    We put the finished jelly in the middle of the base.

22. Step 21:

    

    We moisten each piece in syrup and lay it vertically on the jelly, the wide part of the volcano segment rests on the base.

23. Step 22:

    

    The segments of the volcano are pressed tightly against each other so that they stick together. Lubricate the cake with the remnants of the cream and put it in the refrigerator to soak for 4-6 hours. I had this cake standing all night.

24. Step 23:

    

    For decoration, we cook fudge. Mix sugar with water, bring to a boil and boil for 10 minutes. Then let it cool and whisk. Tinting cocoa.

25. Step 24:

    

    To get "smudges" on the volcano, the fudge needs to be reheated and watered. This should be done quickly, because it freezes instantly.

26. Step 25:

    

    We put berries in the crater of the volcano. You can use any fruit or berries, fresh or from compote. In this recipe, I used freshly frozen raspberries.

27. Step 26:

    

    Powder with powdered sugar and can be served on the festive table.
