💗Pour the mass into the flour and knead the dough, it should not be tight, but also not stick to your hands. Place it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.

💗We divide the dough into 8-9 parts. Roll out each one at once on parchment. Place in the oven for 5-6 minutes. Don’t overbake ❗️otherwise it will be hard

Prepare the cream:

1. Combine milk and sugar in a non-stick pan, place on heat and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar melts.
2. Separately combine eggs, flour, a pinch of vanilla and a little (70-100 ml) milk from the total amount. Mix everything with a whisk so that the flour disperses throughout the mass, then connect the mixer. The mass should become homogeneous, without lumps of flour.
3. While stirring the egg mass, gradually add boiling milk into it.
4. Then return everything together to the heat and, over low heat, with constant stirring, bring the cream to thickness.
5. Remove the thickened cream from the heat and add butter to it. It will immediately begin to melt. Mix it into the cream using a mixer. Cover the finished cream with a lid or cling film and cool completely.
6. Grease the cakes with cream and gradually assemble the cake. Leave one cake layer for topping the finished cake.
7. Cover the top and sides of the cake with cream as well. Place the cake in the refrigerator to soak. You can leave it overnight.
