It is necessary to add flour to the resulting composition, sifting it through a sieve along with baking soda. Now you can knead a soft dough. If the dough comes out liquid, you will need to add a little more flour than indicated in the ingredients.
The finished dough will need to be divided into 2 parts and each of them rolled out into a layer approximately 3 mm thick. From each layer of dough you will need to cut a heart-shaped piece. To do this, use a paper template measuring 20x25 cm.
Next, each piece needs to be pricked with a fork. You need to make as many punctures as possible so that the dough does not swell during baking. The blanks can be transferred to parchment, placed on baking sheets and placed in an oven heated to 180 °C. The cakes should be baked for no more than 10 – 15 minutes. The finished cakes need to be cooled by placing them on a flat surface.
In the meantime, you will need to make the cream. Place the cream cheese in a bowl, pour condensed milk into it and beat both components with a mixer until fluffy. The finished cream should be placed in a pastry bag with a round nozzle installed.
The cream must be squeezed onto each cake in large drops, covering the entire surface of each cake, after which they must be laid on top of each other.
Now the cake should be placed in the refrigerator for 5 - 7 hours so that it is soaked. After this, you need to lay meringue, cranberries and several chrysanthemum flowers on top.

As soon as the Dough acquires a golden hue, the cakes must be removed from the oven and stacked on top of each other without removing the parchment. Thus, you will need to bake 10 - 13 cakes.
