Preparation
So, we start with the process of whipping the proteins. To do this, we need a mixer, without it to achieve sharp protein peaks will be much more difficult. When the protein mass is already sufficiently airy and dense, pour in the sugar and punch the mixture until all the sugar crystals are dissolved. Now you need to carefully mix in the protein mixture of almond and sifted wheat flour. Do it already need a shovel and very carefully, so as not to lose airiness.
In the next stage, bake cakes. To do this, divide the almond dough into five parts and apply each of them to a separate parchment, on which the desired round or rectangular contour is preliminarily drawn. The thickness of the cakes should be about two to three millimeters. To bake them, set the oven to a 165 degree temperature regime, warm it up and place the sheets with the test alternately on a pan set at an average level. Bakes are baked for about seven minutes. After this, turn them over to clean parchment sheets and gently separate from the original parchment, if necessary, helping yourself with a knife. On the readiness of all the cakes they need to be slightly dried. It is possible for this purpose to place them in a still-off warm oven. If this step is skipped, the cake will turn out to be quite dense when cutting and tasting.
While the cakes dry up, let's prepare the cream. To do this, softened butter with a mixer break before lightening, and then pour the powdered sugar, add condensed milk and break the mixture for a few more minutes. After that, we add vanilla sugar and cognac to the cream. As a result, you should get a smooth glossy and homogeneous mass.
For pralines, fry nuts a little in a dry frying pan or in the oven until golden, and then pour them into a thick-walled saucepan, pour in the powdered sugar and place on the fire. Continuously stirring, let the sugar powder melt, and then cool the mixture and grind it into a crumb in the container of the blender or food processor. Next, add the sweet nut mixture of melted butter and chocolate, sprinkle powder
Whisk to airiness and cream density, mix them with the cooked nut-chocolate mixture and combine it with butter cream. It remains only to whip all together a little with a mixer and the final cream for the cake "Ideal" is ready.
Now we smear the dried cakes with cream and stack them on top of each other. We also smear the sides and top of the cake, sprinkle a generous layer of powdered sugar on top and draw a grid in the form of rhombuses from above. You can decorate the product to your liking. Let the cake soak and enjoy the amazing taste of dessert.
