Cake without baking
First consider, so to speak, the basicrecipe. Gingerbread cake with sour cream is most often supplemented with bananas. However, it is not necessary to consider them an obligatory ingredient - you can put any fruit into the treat. The only condition - they must be juicy. Mandarins with oranges, kiwi, any berries, apricots and peaches will be appropriate. Apples with pears "sound" will be much worse. To prepare such a cake is simple: labor will require only cream. It needs thick sour cream. You cannot buy the required “density” in the store, so you have to weigh the usual 20%: pour it into gauze rolled up in several layers and put it in a sieve. With 700 ml will leave about a glass of serum. Sour cream is better to keep the night in the fridge - it will turn out quite thick. She is well whipped with a glass of sugar. This amount of cream is enough for half a kilo of baking - in any case, the recipe says so. Gingerbread cake with sour cream is going to be quite simple: gingerbread cuts are cut lengthwise into three pieces and dipped into cream. On a dish, their layer is laid out, on top - circles of sliced banana ... And so act, until the blanks are finished, forming a hill. From above, it is poured with icing or sprinkled with chocolate, coconut chips, etc. During the night, the dessert will be soaked - and you can congratulate the birthday.
Cream with condensed milk
As already mentioned, the first was the easiestrecipe. Gingerbread cake with sour cream can be spread with more time consuming creams. For example, mix half a liter of low-fat sour cream with a jar of condensed milk and three spoons of jam without pulp. Technical subtlety: this is done only with a spoon; in extreme cases - a whisk. The mixer, of course, acts faster, but its use results in too much liquid cream. This recipe uses a slightly different way to make a cake out of gingerbread: they are cut into rather small, but whole and not crumbling pieces. These slices are immersed in the cream and left in it for a couple of minutes - for soaking. The berries are very harmonious in such a cake (preferably fresh, but also possible from jam). The gingerbread layer is laid with a mixture of selected berries and chopped nuts. Slide for an hour left on the table, and then hiding in the cold for three. Due to the fact that the cakes are chopped finely, it is soaked quite quickly.
Chocolate cream sour cream
Especially good with him is a chocolate gingerbread cake.Ripe persimmon and nuts, used with bananas, will give a special piquancy to this variant. The assembly remains the same as the first recipe: gingerbread plates are soaked in cream or smeared with them, plates of persimmon are laid out on top, gingerbread again on them, and then banana circles. Each fruit layer is sprinkled with nuts. For the cream, the white oil is whipped soft butter (a pack of 200 grams), a glass of sugar is gradually poured out (the beating is continued). When the grains are completely dissolved, two glasses of fat sour cream are added gradually. Do you want the cream to be chocolate - enter at the end of three spoons of cocoa powder. The folded cake is iced and left to stand in the fridge overnight.
Marshmallow-gingerbread cake
If you like very sweet treats, youThis recipe is suitable: a cake made from gingerbread with sour cream and marshmallow. The cream is the most common, basic: half a liter of thick cream, whipped with a glass of sugar. Gingerbread tastes better to take honey, half and half - white and chocolate (this is for beauty). Marshmallows need the same amount as baking. Of course, need and bananas. If you are afraid that you will be too cloying, dilute them with kiwi circles. The construction of the cake is already trivial: plates of gingerbread are dipped into cream, fruits are laid out on them, and then the marshmallow layer comes. On it - again, fruit, again, gingerbread, plus bananas and the tip - of marshmallow.
"Cherry in the snow"
If you do not save time, but just lovegingerbread, can make a very tasty, but rather time-consuming cake. For him, 400 grams of cherries are mixed with two spoons of sugar; when excess juice is drained, the berries are mixed with a spoonful of starch. An equal amount of chocolate gingerbread is rubbed by a grater. A piece of butter (80 grams) is melted, mixed with three yolks and poured into gingerbread. The baking mold is lined with foil, most of the “dough” is spread out over it, leveled and slightly crushed. Three squirrels and a half cups of sugar are whipped to soft but firm peaks. Half the meringue is distributed in gingerbread. A cherry is placed on top, on which the remainder of the meringue unfolds. The whole structure is neatly closed with the remaining dough - and in the oven for half an hour. Troublesome, but very tasty!
