Chocolate honey cake with sour cream

Those who love the classic version of the honey cake and have a positive attitude towards chocolate pastries will definitely like this version of the cake. The cakes combine the recognizable notes of honey and the bright taste of cocoa. Their texture is crumbly and velvety. The sour cream here balances the chocolate-honey richness well and adds a delicate creamy sourness. Due to the porosity of the cakes, the cake is perfectly saturated with cream and turns out to be moist and tender. In the process of preparing and baking dough, there are certain important points that must be observed in order to get a truly delicious dessert. Everything is detailed in this recipe.

Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 12
Break the egg into a bowl, add granulated sugar and cocoa powder. Mix everything together with a whisk so that all the lumps break, and a homogeneous mass is obtained. Then add honey and pour in milk, mix everything together with a whisk. If the honey is solid, then you should first melt it to a liquid state in the microwave.
step 2 out of 12
Cut the butter into small cubes and put in the prepared liquid mixture. We put the dishes with the whole mass in a water bath and stir with a spoon or a whisk until the butter melts and the mixture is completely smooth and shiny.
step 3 out of 12
Add soda to the warm mass, previously quenched with vinegar in a separate container. Stir, continuing to hold the dishes with the mass in a water bath.
step 4 out of 12
Pour in half of the total amount of flour and mix thoroughly. We remove the dishes from the water bath.
step 5 out of 12
Now, little by little, add the remaining flour until you have a soft, pliable dough that can be shaped into a ball. Depending on the characteristics of the flour used, you may need more or less of it than indicated in the recipe. Therefore, before the dough is obtained, add the flour carefully, a little at a time, so that in the end the mass does not turn out too steep.
step 6 out of 12
Divide the decorated dough into eight equal parts.
step 7 out of 12
Lightly sprinkle the surface of the table with flour and roll each part on it in the form of a circle. The approximate diameter is twenty-four centimeters.
step 8 out of 12
Preheat the oven to a temperature of 180 degrees. On a baking sheet covered with oiled parchment (it is also convenient to use a silicone mat) we transfer the cakes and bake each for about four to five minutes. The dough is baked very quickly, it is important to carefully monitor and not overdry the products.To make the finished cake have the correct round shape, put a plate of a suitable diameter on each finished cake and cut off the uneven edges around the perimeter. Save the cuttings for sprinkling.
step 9 out of 12
To prepare the cream, mix the chilled fat sour cream with granulated sugar and beat with a mixer to dissolve all the crystals.
step 10 out of 12
We generously coat each cake with the prepared cream. The side edges of the formed cake are also well greased after assembly. We leave the surface without cream - there will be glaze.
step 11 out of 12
Grind the crumbs into crumbs using a blender. Sprinkle the creamy edges of the cake with the resulting crumb, gently pressing it with your palm. To prepare the glaze, break the chocolate into small pieces and mix with the specified amount of butter. We put the mixture in a water bath and, with constant stirring, achieve a completely homogeneous mass. Then we put it on the top cake layer. Smooth out the chocolate layer with the back of a spoon or a culinary spatula.
step 12 out of 12
We put the cake in the refrigerator and let it soak for at least two hours. Before serving, you can decorate the surface with mint leaves for an attractive color contrast.

Bon Appetit!
