How to cook deliciously - Starry Night Cakes
1. Stage
Everything is done very simply and quickly. For the dough, quickly mix the softened butter with the powdered sugar with a silicone spatula.
2. Stage
Sift the flour and vanilla into the mixture. Knead everything quickly with a spatula. You do not need to stir with your hands, so that the butter does not melt from the heat of your hands. The dough will turn out like this.
3. Stage
Line a small mold with parchment paper and spread the dough evenly with a spatula. I have a shape of 21×21 cm.
4. Stage
Bake in a preheated 180 degrees oven for about 15-20 minutes until golden. Let the cake cool slightly for 10-15 minutes.
5. Stage
For the caramel layer, melt butter in a thick-walled saucepan.
6. Stage
Pour the condensed milk into the bowl. The condensed milk must be of good quality. I use Rogachev's.
7. Stage
Bring the condensed milk and butter to a boil over low heat, stirring constantly. As soon as the condensed milk comes to a boil, set the time and cook for 5 minutes.
8. Stage
Dry the nuts in the oven and peel the skin.
9. Stage
Mix the boiled condensed milk with nuts and pour it on the shortbread dough. You can use any nuts you like. I have peanuts this time. You can also make it without nuts, then it will just be soft caramel.
10. Stage
Bake in a preheated 180 degrees oven for about 10-15 minutes. Caramel should be a little golden. If you overbake caramel, it will not be soft, but on the contrary will be like nougat. Cool for 10-15 minutes.
11. Stage
For the frosting, melt the chocolate and butter any way you like. I melt it in pulses in the microwave. Pour the chocolate on top of the caramel layer. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator to stabilize the layers.
12. Stage
Decorate to your liking and desire! Cut into cakes with a sharp knife.
13. Stage
The cakes are very tasty and hearty! All the components are in harmony with each other!
14. Stage
Bon appetit!!!
