Instructions
  1. First of all, prepare orange cottage cheese, as it needs to be infused, thickened. To do this, remove the zest from a well-washed orange and squeeze out the juice. We will also need sugar, butter and an egg. I have enough cream for two layers of cake. If you need more, make a double portion.
  2. In a saucepan with a thick bottom, mix the egg, sugar, orange juice (we will need 60 ml) and zest, mix until smooth. Add butter, put on a small fire.
  3. With constant stirring, bring the cottage cheese to thicken. Remove from the heat, pass the cream through a sieve to remove the zest and possible lumps. Cover the Kurd with a touching film. Completely cooled down. After cooling, it will become more dense. If you need thick cottage cheese, then when all the components are combined in a saucepan, you can add 1 tsp of starch.
  4. Prepare the ingredients for the cakes. The flour must be sifted, also remove the zest from the orange and squeeze out 1 tbsp of juice. Cut the butter into pieces.
  5. Beat the eggs with sugar until frothy.
  6. Add all other ingredients except flour to the eggs beaten with sugar. Put it in a water bath and, stirring, achieve complete dissolution of sugar and butter.
  7. Next, add 200 g of flour, continuing to stir, knead the dough to a thick viscous consistency, during the brewing process the color of the dough will become darker. It takes 10-15 minutes. Then remove the container with the dough from the bath, let it cool down a little and add the rest of the flour, stirring with a spoon. Flour can take less, do not forget! The dough turns out soft and does not stick to your hands. Put the dough in a bag and put it in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes.
  8. The finished dough turns out to be very plastic, almost does not stick to the rolling pin. Divide the dough into 8 parts. Each of which is rolled out on parchment 2-3 mm thick.
  9. We outline the required diameter with the lid, pierce it with a fork. We send it to the oven for 6-7 minutes (200 degrees) until golden brown. During the baking process, the dough may swell, this is normal.
  10. Cool the finished cakes completely, also leave the finish. We will use them to make crumbs for sprinkling.
  11. For the cream, whisk the heavy cream with powdered sugar, add to the fatty sour cream and that’s it! If the sour cream is not greasy, then you need to keep it on gauze for at least 3 hours, and preferably more.
  12. Our creams are ready. The Kurd turned out to be more dense (the consistency of 15% sour cream). Assemble the cake.
  13. Put a little sour cream on the dish so that the cake does not move out. The first 2 cakes are smeared with sour cream.
  14. The third cake is smeared with cottage cheese. And again 2 cakes of sour cream, the next one is Kurdish.
  15. The final cake, as well as the sides of the cake, are also smeared with sour cream. Make a crumb from the scraps and sprinkle it on the sides of the cake.
  16. Before serving, decorate the cake with orange slices and chocolate.
  17. Enjoy your tea!
