Medovik honey cake

Medovik honey cake is a beloved dessert from Russia, made of many thin honey-infused layers and soft sour cream filling. Over time, the creamy filling seeps into the layers, transforming them into a tender, melt-in-your-mouth cake. It shines at celebrations or when you want a dessert that feels special. The subtle sweetness of honey and the gentle tang of cream make it unforgettable.

Medovik cake can be made at home. It will turn out much tastier than what is sold in stores. Its taste will be much better because all the ingredients are homemade and of high quality.

For the cake, you will need the following ingredients (the cake will weigh 2.5 kilograms):

• 
  Break the eggs into a large bowl and add sugar to them.
• 
  Stir the mixture.
• 
  Then add honey and butter.
• 
  Place the mixture over low heat or in a double boiler and melt the ingredients. I thought my bowl was too small, so I poured the batter into a larger bowl.
• 
  Add baking soda (neutralized with vinegar).
• 
  Pour the flour into a sieve and sift it into the mixture.
• 
  Knead the dough.
• 
  Portion the dough into pieces.
• Turn on the oven and preheat it to 180 degrees.
• 
  Place a piece of dough on parchment paper and roll it out with a rolling pin. Place a regular plate on top. Cut a circle using a pizza cutter. Then use a fork to prick it.
• 
  Place the rolled-out dough circle in the oven for 8 minutes. This is how we will bake all the cakes.
• 
  Combine the sour cream and sugar in a bowl. Beat the mixture thoroughly until the sugar is completely dissolved. Spread the sour cream generously on the finished cake layers.
• 
  Place the cake scraps in the bowl of a blender and grind them into crumbs. Sprinkle the crumbs over the top and sides of the cake. The Medovik cake is ready!
