The peak of the popularity of the "Seven-cup" cake fell on the Soviet years. Then, in the riot of various confectionery, the dessert got a little lost. And today is the time to recall the taste of a vintage cake after many decades. "Septupakannik" is worthy of becoming your homemade dessert. If you once baked it - remember the past. But if for the first time you learn about the existence of such a cake, then we will study.

Name history

Thanks to what did the Seven-cup cake get a slightly unusual name? Glasses! Yes, it was with this container that all the components that make up baking are measured. In Soviet times, the range of glasses was standard. Faceted with a rim was available in every apartment. And therefore it is logical that the amount of necessary products was measured with this dish. Seven glasses - seven names of components.

Composition of the future cake

The dough for the "Seven-glass" cake is kneaded from fairly prosaic products.

What you need for the base:

• chicken eggs, 4 eggs of the first category occupy a glass;
• sugar - 1 cup;
• butter (melt) or margarine - 1 cup (frozen piece will be about 200 grams);
• sour cream product 20% - 1 cup;
• glass of powdered milk (cream);
• flour - 1 cup;
• potato starch - also 1 glass;
• baking powder - 1 sachet.

Baking cakes

Sift flour, starch and baking powder into a deep bowl. Mix dry ingredients.

Place eggs and sugar in another deep bowl and, using the mixer at maximum speed, beat them until thick.

Now reduce the speed of the mixer, but do not stop beating. Gradually add liquid butter. Add sour cream in the same way.

Pour dry ingredients into this mixture and now mix very carefully. Homogeneous batter - just what we need.

For baking, in this recipe for the "Seven-glass" cake, it is proposed to take a wide and flat baking sheet in order to get the desired thickness of the finished cakes in it. But you can use your own baking dish. You will have to make several "fills" on several cakes.

The oven heats up to 180 degrees. A baking sheet for the base of the "Seven-cup" cake is processed with any oil or covered with oiledbaking paper.

Pour out the dough. We bake the cake until golden. This takes 20-25 minutes. Check the base for complete readiness by piercing it with a wooden toothpick (or match). The match after being removed from the cake should not be sticky and wet.

Leave the finished cakes on the wire rack to cool completely.

Cream for condensed milk cake

Lubricate the chilled cakes with any cream. It can even be regular jam or jam. But we propose to create a gentle and uncomplicated cream for the Seven-cup cake.

Ingredients:

• condensed milk (boiled) - 1 can;
• softened butter - 1 pack;
• cottage cheese -150-200 grams.

Cream making moments

First you need to carefully wipe the cottage cheese to a homogeneous substance. When you have prepared this product, you can proceed to the rest, easier moments.

Open a jar of condensed milk, mix the contents, because such a product can separate a little into a liquid part and a thick one. Let's give the condensed milk the uniformity it should.

We arm ourselves with a mixer. Whisk the condensed milk and softened butter in a separate bowl. The result is an airy cream, but now we add cottage cheese in small portions. First, about 100 grams. Let's taste it. And if we are convinced that the cream is still quite cloying (and oily), we will gradually add a certain amount of cottage cheese. Cooking is convenient in that you can choose the degree of saturation with sweetness yourself, adding or notadding curd. The cream is ready, has a uniform texture and tastes good.

Assembling the cake

Depending on the shape of your cake (round or rectangular), we need a platform on which to place the cake. You can lay foil around the perimeter of a flat dish or tray, which will help you a lot in the future: the dishes will be easier to wash.

Put the cake and coat it with cream. Fans of liquid impregnation can mix white condensed milk with a small amount of boiled water and soak the cake with the composition. You can smear with cream or jam after impregnation. In fact, the cake assembly step always has a creative touch.

Having connected all the cakes we have in this way, we will coat the top of the product with the resulting cream from boiled condensed milk. The side parts of the dessert also do not deprive us of our attention. We collect the cream with a spoon and smooth it to the sides. When the product is completely covered with it, we bring the coating to perfection with a special culinary staple. Smooth out all the bumps and bumps.

Decorate your homemade dessert the way you or your favorite tasters want. The sides of the cake can be ennobled with crushed nuts. They adhere perfectly to a freshly oiled surface. Just sprinkle on the sides until you get the desired result. The surface is also decorated as you like.

It is desirable to give the finished "Seven-glass" five hours for insisting. Keep the cake in the refrigerator all this time.
