Beze

The meringue is prepared as usual, by mixing egg whites and granulated sugar. This cake requires eight proteins and two glasses of sugar.

Ingredients for Cream

As you know, if you do not interlay the cake cake with some cream base, it will turn out to be dry and unattractive to the taste. Therefore, for the cake "Air Snickers" we will use 500 grams of quality condensed milk and three hundred grams of butter. You can take the usual condensed milk, but you can use boiled. As someone more like it.

Chocolate glaze

What cake without delicious chocolate glaze? "Air Snickers" was no exception. For chocolate glaze will need five spoons of low-fat sour cream and a chocolate bar weighing a hundred grams. Experts advise using quality black chocolate, the content of cocoa should be at least 72%.

From the top of the chocolate glaze we will sprinkle the cake with crushed nuts. For sprinkling it is possible to take walnuts, peanuts or any other nuts that you love at home. The total weight of the nuts should not be less than 1.5 cups. The standard glass, often used in the recipe, is 200 grams.

Preparation of the dough

The first thing you should start preparing any cake is, of course, a dough. To prepare the dough, you should take a capacious dish, in which it will be convenient to mix the necessary ingredients, and then mix the resulting mass.

So, how to cook "Air Snickers"? Starting with the dough for the cake is the basis. In a prepared bowl or saucepan, fill up the sugar and break six yolks from the chicken eggs. Mixed yolks with sugar should have a whitish hue, then they are whipped correctly and long enough. The remaining proteins after separation of yolks can be placed in the refrigerator for a while. So later they will be better and faster to whip during meringue cooking.

Margarine or butter should be removed in advance from the refrigerator, so that it is slightly melted at room temperature. If you do not have time for this, you can use a water bath or a microwave. But the natural defrost of oil is more convenient and correct.

In the whipped protein mass, add the softened margarine, mayonnaise. Well we mix. After that, add the flour mixed with the baking powder into the dishes. Experts advise leaving one glass of flour in reserve. It is useful if the dough is too liquid or for mixing the mass on the cutting surface. If the baking powder you did not find, then it can always be replaced with ordinary baking soda. Only it must first be extinguished with vinegar or lemon juice.

After all the ingredients have been added, the dough can be kneaded on the cutting surface. This is where the glass of flour left us beforehand comes in handy. Sprinkle the table with a little flour, lay out the dough and start to mix. When the base gets the right thick consistency, it should be divided into two or three parts (depending on what size of the cakes you will bake). Each part is wrapped in polyethylene food film and put in the refrigerator for half an hour.

Preparation of protein mass

While the dough lays and comes in the fridge, you can start making meringues. Cake "Air Snickers", the recipe of which we propose, is impossible without a protein basis. In some recipes there are simply cakes, greased with cream and sprinkled with crushed nuts. But such a cake can not be called "Air Snickers". Do not be lazy in making cakes. Removing one ingredient, you will not get the result you expected. Do not throw out words from a culinary song.

So, we will prepare meringues from proteins, which we languish in the refrigerator and wait for their time. To them we add granulated sugar and whisk with a mixer. In order for proteins to be more elastic and whisk easier and faster, experts advise using a couple of teaspoons of lemon juice. But if there were no lemons in the kitchen, then you can do without them.

Cream Preparation

Cream for this cake is also prepared with a mixer. In the dishes we spread the submerged butter and gradually add the condensed milk. The cream should turn out dense. If you take a regular condensed milk, the cream will turn liquid. To avoid this, you can take the boiled condensed milk or add to the usual little cocoa powder. With its help the cream will get a pleasant brown shade and will be slightly thicker.

Preparation of chocolate glaze

Chocolate glaze in the cake "Air Snickers" is another important detail. In a separate dish, you must break the tile of chocolate. A small pot of water is placed on the stove, a bowl of chocolate is placed on top. Try not to pour a lot of water, it will take a long time to boil, and the chocolate will melt longer.

When chocolate gets a liquid consistency, you can add sour cream to it. Mixer is not recommended for mixing. We do not need a thick cream, but we need a liquid "sauce", which will flow around the cake from all sides. For mixing the glaze ingredients it is better to use a silicone spatula.

Baking

On the baking sheet we spread the parchment (baking paper) or grease with vegetable oil without a smell. Prepared balls of dough is taken from the refrigerator and each rolls out thin enough. We spread the dough on a baking tray, from above we put an impressive layer of protein base (meringue) and in the oven. It should already be preheated to 160 degrees. At this temperature, the cake with meringue should be baked for 10-15 minutes. Then the temperature in the oven is recommended to be reduced to 100-110 degrees, in order to dry the meringue. Cooking time - 40 minutes.

In some recipes, it is advised to leave the cakes to go with the oven off for another half an hour. If you do not have time for this, you can not do this. But if there is a temporary supply, do not neglect the advice. Remember: no matter which option you choose, proceed to the next stage of preparation - applying cream and glaze - should be only if the cake is sufficiently cooled.

Building a cake

When all two or three cakes are ready, you can proceed with the final assembly of the dish. On the first cake over the meringue spread the cream and sprinkle with crushed nuts. Then we cover with the second cake and we carry out the same manipulations. The last cake on top of the cream is watered with chocolate glaze and adorned with nut loose.

According to the recommendations of experienced housewives, such a cake should not be eaten immediately. So that he has acquired the necessary rich taste, he should go and soak. For this, it is advisable to place the cake in the refrigerator for 12 hours, and preferably for a day.
