    1. Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them with the sugar. For the sugar to dissolve better, the eggs should be at room temperature. Pour in the kefir in a stream and add the jam. Sift in the flour mixed with the baking soda. Beat the batter with a mixer. 2. Divide the batter into about 3 portions and bake in a springform pan at 355°F (180°C), 15 minutes each. The layers are done when a toothpick comes out dry. 3. Pour the milk into a saucepan and set it over the heat, dissolve the sugar, and add the flour. Cook the cream over low heat, stirring now and then with a spatula, until thickened. If lumps form, blend it or strain it through a sieve. Once the mixture cools, beat in the butter and combine. 4. Stack the layers on a plate, spreading each generously with cream. Refrigerate to soak — ideally overnight.
