  9. Assemble the cake. The cakes are very richly layered with sour cream. The cakes are very well absorbed by the cream, so you won't regret it. Put the cake in a deep mold and almost completely fill it with cream. Leave about 7 tablespoons of cream for decoration. Remove the pie in the cold for impregnation for at least 3 hours. I was cleaning for the night.

  10. Put the finished soaked cake on a platter. Add cocoa to the remaining cream and pour over the cake, making smudges along the edges. I also crushed the chocolate gingerbread into crumbs and sprinkled them on top, but this, of course, is not necessary.
