Napoleon cake

In my family are very fond of cake «Napoleon» and I could not please the family such joy. I’ve been looking for a good recipe, but some are deterred me, because they include 600 g plums. oil. And quite by accident, I found a recipe for low-fat and tasty «Napoleon.» Cooking it is not easy, and you need a lot of time. On kneading dough, cream, pastries and cream promazyvanie it took me 4, 5 hours. But the cake turned out delicious so I absolutely do not regret the wasted efforts.

Ingredients

Korzh:

Egg Chicken — 2

Butter — 300 g

vinegar — 2 tablespoons

Flour — 400 g

Water — 150 ml

Custard:

Milk — 1. 5 l

Egg yolk — 5

Sugar — 300 g

Flour — 100 g

vanilla — to taste

Note

1. In a blender sift 1 cup of flour and diced butter. Ground to a flour crumbs. If no blender, then you can grind large knife toque. We shift crumb flour in a bowl, make a recess and add the eggs, flour, vinegar and water, knead the dough. Divide the dough into smooth balls (I turned 12), cover with cling film and send in the refrigerator for 1 — 1.5 hours.

2. In the meantime, you can prepare the custard. Rub the yolks with the sugar and vanilla sugar. Pour 50 ml of cold milk and mixed. Add the sifted flour and mix.

3. Pour 50 ml of milk and stir again. We pour the remaining milk in a saucepan and stirring occasionally, bring to a boil. Yolk mass was poured into a large saucepan. Then, pour a thin stream of hot milk into it and stir continuously. Put the pan over medium heat and, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, bring the cream until thick.

4. In order to test the readiness of the cream, slide on the back of a spoon track and if he does not swim, the cream is ready. Ready custard cover and leave to cool at room temperature. The oven is heated to 220 — 230 degrees. Heat the pan in the oven for 40 seconds. Then we put it on a towel and sprinkle the sifted flour. Put him on the ball of dough and roll out with a rolling pin into a thin layer. On top of the layer put a plate or lid from the pan and cut a circle, remove the plate, trimming reserve. Korzh often prick with a fork. Bake the cake and cut in a preheated 220 degree oven for 5 -7 minutes, until light — golden brown. While the cake is baked one, I’m rolling out next, prick and cut a circle, and then screwed onto the rolling pin and transfer to a baking sheet. The baked dough scraps piled in a separate bowl for decoration. Carefully remove the cake from the pan and transferred to a flat surface. So we bake all the cakes and stack them on each other. Trim frays hands in the dust or use tolkushkoy.

5. When all the cakes and baked cream is ready, you can do the assembly of the cake. To do this, take a split mold of larger diameter than the cakes and blanketed her bottom (you can bumpers) with cling film. At the bottom put a cake and smeared it 3 — 4 tablespoons of custard.

6. Cover with a second Korzh again lubricates cream. So we collect the entire cake. Laying the last cake, pressed his little hands and then lubricate cream. Please note that the cream should be left on the sides of cake, do not use all of it. Form with cake cover with a lid or close the cling film and send in the refrigerator for 6 — 12 hours. To decorate the cake carefully we shift it to the dish, the laid 4 strips of paper for baking. Daubed the sides of the cake with cream and sprinkle with remaining crumbs, then sprinkle and top of the cake. Gently pull out strips of baking paper — a cake and serve.
