Honey cake classic

Delicious walnut cake will not leave you indifferent! Honey cake is an old dish from Russian cuisine. There's not much honey in it. I add about as much as indicated in the composition of the dish, that is, 2 tablespoons. Someone will like more honey in the cream, the main thing is not to overdo it. Who decides to make it for the first time, it's better not to experiment, and cook such a honey cake recipe with photos that show well how the cooking process develops.

You will get a completely wonderful Honey Cake if you write down this culinary recipe of Russian cuisine. It is very similar to the purchased honey cake, which is often sold in supermarkets. You can decorate such a cake according to your own taste – cream flowers or ground walnuts.
We build a water bath and melt butter in it. After adding honey, add sugar and heat until the mass becomes homogeneous and does not smell awesome. Now pour in the baking powder and, stirring, wait for our mixture to turn white (it will also increase in volume, so take a bigger saucepan). Remove from the heat and cool. Now we drive in one egg and whisk with a whisk. We start the flour and immediately knead the tender dough. We divide it into the right number of parts (it can be 6, 7, and 8 cakes) and put each layer into a mold, leveling the surface with your fingers (you can't roll it out with a rolling pin, since the dough is very soft). It will take us about ten minutes to bake each cake. At this time, we prepare the cream: just beat the softened butter with condensed milk (boiled) until smooth. Now we coat each cake with cream and stack it on top of each other. The top can be decorated with crumbs from the same cake (for sure the dough will remain). Such sweet food will not disappoint anyone.
