Gradually add all the flour and knead the dough. The dough should be smooth. Do not overfill the dough with flour, otherwise the finished cakes will be too stiff. Wrap the finished dough in clingfilm and leave in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or better overnight.

Divide the finished dough into three parts and roll out each part into a thin layer. Cut out a Christmas tree according to a template. Prick the cake with a fork, so that it does not puff up during baking.

Bake at 180 degrees, about 5-7 minutes, until golden. Let the cakes cool. I do not recommend stacking the warm cakes on top of each other, as they may stick together.

Let's prepare the cream. To do this, combine the eggs, sugar, flour and sour cream in a bowl. Mix until homogeneous. Put it on a water bath and boil the mass, constantly stirring, until it thickens. Cover the ready cream with clingfilm and put it in the fridge to cool completely.

Whip the butter until fluffy. A food processor helped me with this. Gradually add the cooled cream. Put the ready cream in the refrigerator until you use it.

9 . Stage

Prepare the currant confit. To do this, mix the puree with sugar and warm until the first bubbles. Add the starch diluted in a little water and boil until it thickens. Remove from the stove and allow to cool completely. Start assembling the cake. Spread the cream on the cake from a pastry bag. In the middle add currant confit. Cover with the second cake and repeat the procedure. On top cake put only cream, no need for confit. Take the ready cake to the fridge for 4 hours or overnight, so it becomes soft and tender.
