Step cooking
Biscuit
- To 50 g of butter at room temperature add 40 g of sugar and beat with a mixer for 4-5 minutes until a light fluffy mass is obtained.
- Next, introduce vanilla sugar, a pinch of salt and 1 chicken egg and beat the mass again for about 4 minutes. It may delaminate, but it is not scary; most importantly, the mass was magnificent.
- In 70 g of flour, add the baking powder, mix and sift into the prepared mass.
- Mix until smooth. The dough should be soft and airy.
- Take a baking ring with a diameter of 18 cm, cover its outer part with foil, and cover the bottom with a circle of parchment paper. We spread the dough inside and level it out as well as possible.
- Bake a biscuit for 18-20 minutes at a temperature of 180ºС.
- Upon completion, remove the biscuit from the mold and let it cool completely.
Souffle
- Beat 255 g butter until fluffy for about 5 minutes.
- Gradually add 80 g of condensed milk to the butter and continue to whisk until smooth.
- Divide the resulting cream into 2 equal servings.
- In one of them, sift 10 g of cocoa powder.
- Mix it lightly, and then beat until smooth. Putting the finished cream in the refrigerator is not necessary.
- We combine gelatin with 50 g of water and leave to swell the necessary time.
- Pour 300 g of sugar into 130 ml of water and place on a stove. Cook the syrup for 12-13 minutes. Its temperature should be around 110ºС, and the texture should be viscous and viscous.
- Add a pinch of salt to 3 egg whites and beat with a mixer until a stable white foam, at the end we introduce 1 tsp. lemon juice. For everything to work out as it should, the whisk of the mixer must be clean and dry.
- Once the sugar syrup is ready, it must be immediately removed from the stove and mixed with whipped proteins, stirring with a mixer. Pour the syrup very carefully so as not to get on the beaters of the mixer.
- When the syrup is over, beat the protein mass for another 1 minute.
- In a water bath, we dilute gelatin and introduce it into the protein mass. Stir with a mixer at a slow speed so that it is evenly distributed.
- We divide the mass into 2 parts and add the prepared protein cream to each: white in one part, chocolate in the other. Stir with a mixer.
Making a cake
- We install a baking ring with a diameter of 19 cm, grease the inside with butter and glue a strip of parchment paper. We try to release all the air between it and the walls of the form. Cut the biscuit into 2 pieces along.
- We lay out the part that is thicker down the form.
- Fill the biscuit with a dark souffle, carefully and carefully level it and put in the refrigerator for 10 minutes so that the souffle has time to grab a little.
- We put the second part of the biscuit on top and fill it with white souffle.
- Level, release air bubbles. We remove the cake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, so that the souffle is completely cooled.
- For glaze, melt 25 g of butter in a water bath and add 40 g of chocolate to it.
- We wait until the chocolate becomes soft, and mix until smooth. Icing should be prepared immediately before taking the cake out of the refrigerator.
- Pour the icing on the cake and let it cool completely.
- After that, we melt 20 g of chocolate and with the help of a pastry syringe we decorate the cake at our discretion.
- After that, remove the ring from it and remove the parchment paper. Congratulations, Bird's milk cake is ready!
