Layered Roman pie is made from ordinary pancakes familiar to us and, unfortunately, has nothing in common with Rome. But this does not make the taste of the dish worse. Be sure to try this pie!

With custard

For homemade puff pastry:

• 250 g flour;
• 200 g margarine;
• 1 yolk;
• ¼ tsp. salt;
• 2 tsp. vinegar;
• 100 ml ice water.

For cream:

• 350 ml milk;
• 100 g sugar;
• 30 g butter;
• a pinch of salt;
• 2 tsp. vanilla sugar;
• 30 g flour;
• 2 eggs.

Preparation of the dough:

1. In a glass, mix the yolk, salt, vinegar and water. Beat well until smooth. Place the workpiece in the refrigerator.
2. Meanwhile, on a work surface, sift the flour and add margarine. To make it easier to grind, it is recommended to roll the bar in flour from time to time.
3. Grind margarine shavings with flour by hand.
4. We collect the mass in a slide. We take the dough from the refrigerator and water the mound, kneading the dough by hand. There is no need to knead much - just mix the ingredients together.
5. We collect the lump in a bag, squeeze it well, releasing all possible air, and put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, or better yet, overnight.
6. Roll out the dough. Its thickness should be about 3 mm, and its size should be 40 cm by 35 cm (+/– 3 cm). We cut it into 8 identical rectangles. Place them on a baking sheet.

Cream for layer cake:

1. Place the dry ingredients in a bowl, mix and then pour in a third of the milk and eggs. Beat with a whisk.
2. In a saucepan, heat the milk and butter and almost bring to a boil. Let it cool and pour the egg-milk mixture into it in a stream. The food should not be hot, otherwise the egg may curdle. While pouring, stir the mixture with a whisk.
3. Place the saucepan back on low heat and cook the cream until thickened. Be sure to stir it so it doesn't start to burn. The cream should resemble homemade sour cream in consistency.

Next, it remains to assemble the puff pastries:

1. Place the frozen cream in a pastry bag and make stripes on the dough plates in the middle.
2. We grease one edge of the plates with yolk and glue it to the second. We make small cuts on top of the workpiece and grease them with yolk.
3. Bake at 190 – 210ºС for 20 – 25 minutes.

Roman cake - surprise your guests!

Puff pastry, condensed milk cream - perfection of taste and beauty. All this is a recipe for a wonderful tasty delicacy. Roman cake - a dessert for a special occasion!

Roman cake. You don't need much to prepare:

— Puff pastry 500 gr. — Condensed milk 0.5 cans. - butter 100 gr. — Walnut 100 gr. - lemon zest 1 pc.

Puff pastry. How to cook for a cake?

Surely every housewife has her own unique recipe for making puff pastry. According to its composition, it is divided into two types: 1. Yeast. 2. Off-road.

Depending on the incoming components, the speed of preparing the dough varies. There are recipes that do not require much time and are suitable for unexpected guests. Some recipes are difficult to prepare and take a long time to complete.

The recipe for our yeast dough is simple, suitable even for novice cooks and young housewives.

Prepare the ingredients for the dough:

1. Wheat flour 1 kg. 2. Cold water 250 ml. 3. Cow butter 500 g. 4. Table salt 1 teaspoon.

Let's get started:

- Add salt to the flour. - Put 2 tbsp. soft butter, stir - Slowly add water, knead the mass for about 5 - 7 minutes. Roll out the dough. — Prepare a cutting board. Dust with flour. Roll out the dough into a rectangle. The thickness should be about 1.5 cm. - Butter from the freezer, cut into strips. Place them on the dough. Form a square. Fold the edges of the dough over the butter. Refrigerate for 20 - 25 minutes. - Afterwards, take out the dough. Roll it out. Visually divide the dough into 3 equal parts. — Place the sides over the center piece. Turn it over. Roll it out. Fold the dough into thirds again, based on the previous description. - Refrigerate for 20 minutes. - After time has passed, repeat the folding and rolling procedure 2 more times.

Few housewives can boast of a lot of free time. That is why puff pastry for Roman cake can be purchased ready-made in the store. When purchasing, pay attention to the date of manufacture and composition of the product.

Making a cake from store-bought puff pastry:

1. The finished dough is packaged in the form of flat square sheets. Usually their number is equal

2. In order to prepare delicious pastries, roll out the finished sheets, but do not change the square shape. 2. Cut the rolled out square into 4 equal parts. As a result, from 2 sheets, we get 8 identical squares. 3. Preheat the oven to 185° C. Place baking paper on a baking sheet. Lay out the prepared dough pieces. Bake for 15 - 17 minutes. After the dough is ready, remove it from the oven and leave to cool.

Delicious cream is the soul of the cake!

It's no secret that a lot depends on the cream.

Prepare: - Condensed milk 0.5 cans. — Lemon (zest) 1 pc. — Butter 100 grams.

Preparing the cream is not difficult. Even a child can do this. Involve your baby in cooking and develop his culinary skills.

Finely grate the lemon zest. Mix it with condensed milk. Add softened butter. Whisk until smooth and thick.

We collect the cake.

Coat the cooled puff pastries evenly with cream. Place the layers on top of each other, pressing down a little. From 2 layers of purchased dough you will end up with 2 products in 4 layers. Do not coat the top of the cake with cream! Place the resulting cakes in the refrigerator for 1 hour to soak the cakes.

After the cakes have cooled and soaked, you need to divide each cake into 2 parts diagonally. Makes 4 cakes. Carefully coat each cake with cream on all sides. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts. Refrigerate for 10 - 15 minutes.

That's it, the cake is ready! You can invite guests and treat them to delicious homemade cakes.

Preparation

We take the margarine out of the refrigerator, cut it into small pieces and place it on a surface with sides. Sift the flour into it and, using a scraper or large knife, turn the mixture into fine crumbly crumbs.

Break one egg into a glass and fill it with water, stir until the egg loses its structure, pour in vinegar and add a little soda.

Pour the foamed mixture into the flour crumbs and knead the elastic dough.

Divide the dough into 5-7 balls, wrap each in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour and a half.

For the cream we should boil condensed milk. This should be done directly in the jar without opening it. Pour water into a saucepan, put tin cans without labels there and cook over low heat for an hour

Pay attention to the water level in the pan - if you don’t keep an eye on it, the cans may explode and then all the condensed milk will scatter throughout your kitchen. In fact, after the allotted time, the cream is ready

But you can add a little butter and vanillin to the cooled condensed milk to enrich the taste.

For layer cake crusts, it is convenient to use the back side of the baking sheet, since it is easier to roll out the dough on it due to the lack of sides. Pour a little flour onto a baking sheet, roll out the dough on it, trimming off the excess around the edges. You can cut the cakes to the shape of a plate, then they will be even and identical. Leave the trimmings directly on the baking sheet - we will use them later to top the cake. Often prick the crust with a fork to prevent unsightly bubbles from appearing during baking.

Heat the oven to 210 ̊ C and bake the cakes until golden brown. This takes about 13-15 minutes.

After the cakes have cooled, we begin assembling the layer cake, for which we layer each layer of puff pastry with condensed milk cream. We baked the scraps that remained after rolling out the dough and can now grind them into crumbs. Sprinkle our dessert with this mixture and let it sit in the cold.

Quick baking with curd cream

• puff pastry sheet;
• 250 g cottage cheese;
• 3 eggs;
• 100 g cream of any fat content;
• 5 tbsp. l. Sahara;
• vanillin;
• 1 tsp. baking powder;
• 1 tbsp. l. flour.

The preparation of the pie is as follows:

1. Roll out the dough sheet a little and place it in a baking dish so that it covers the bottom and sides.
2. Using a blender, mix cottage cheese with eggs, cream and other ingredients.
3. Pour the filling over the dough. The edges of the workpiece can be slightly tucked over the filling.
4. All that remains is to bake the cake at 180 degrees until golden brown.

On a note. You can place fruit slices on top of the filling before baking or sprinkle it with cinnamon.

Cooking algorithm

Heat the oven to 180 degrees. Let's start preparing the dough.

• In a blender bowl (or any convenient container) combine the following ingredients: flour, sugar, butter (softened), salt, baking powder. Mix all ingredients into crumbs.
• Now you need to add the eggs. We enter them one by one. Do not turn off the blender. We continue to knead the dough. When it becomes homogeneous, it’s ready!
• Line a Roman pie pan with parchment paper. Lubricate it with vegetable oil and level the paper.
• Lay out the dough. The bottom of the pie should be thicker than its top. Therefore, more dough is laid down. We level the base; its thickness will be approximately 1 centimeter.
• Place the cottage cheese on the surface of the bottom crust. The next layer is jam.
• Roll out the remaining portion of the pie crust on a cutting surface using a rolling pin.
• We cover the product from above with the resulting “lid”.
• Place in a hot oven for thirty minutes.
• When the dessert is ready, do not rush to remove it from the mold. Let cool slightly. This will take 10–15 minutes. You will have time to prepare everything you need for a great tea party.

Pie "Roman". Recipe No. 2

This recipe involves using pancakes as the base for the pie. The dessert ends up being tender and very nutritious, not to mention its great sweet taste. Here's what you need to create this sweetness:

STEP-BY-STEP COOKING RECIPE

Step 1

Mix sour cream, butter (180 g), flour (4 cups).

Step 2

Knead a stiff, elastic dough (like dumplings).

Step 3

Divide the dough into 10-12 parts. Roll each part into a ball, cover with film and let stand for 10-15 minutes.

Step 4

Roll each one out thinly on parchment paper. Place a template on top, for example the bottom of a springform pan, cut out a circle. Prick the crust with a fork.

Step 5

Bake at 200 degrees for about 3-4 minutes, until lightly browned.

Step 6

Place finished cakes on top of each other

Step 7

Cream: – Combine eggs with flour and sugar

Step 8

Beat with a mixer until smooth.

Step 9

Gradually add warm milk and continue whisking.

Step 10

Cook the cream over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk, otherwise the cream will burn. Cook until thickened. Beat butter (soft) with a mixer, adding custard in portions. Beat until all the cream is added and the mixture becomes homogeneous. The cream is very delicate in consistency, but holds its shape well.

Step 11

Coat each cake with cream, sprinkle with coconut flakes and stack on top of each other, pressing lightly. We also coat the top layer and side surface of the cake generously. Garnish with coconut and melted cornet chocolate.

Hello! I work in the culinary industry and love sweets madly, although I try to limit myself to it. My grandmother instilled in me a love for baking and passed on several family recipes to me. Later, my notebook began to grow exponentially, which became the reason for creating this resource, where I collect recipes from all books and corners of the Internet.

Step-by-step preparation

1. Step 1:

   We prepare all the ingredients necessary for making Roman layer cake. We bake homemade pancakes in advance according to our favorite recipe, but it is better to bake the pancakes not thin lacy ones, but a little thicker, so that the cake does not turn out very flat and cloyingly sweet. You will also need condensed milk and walnuts to make the pie.

2. Step 2:

   If the walnuts are raw, then first fry them in a dry frying pan, and only then chop them finely in a blender bowl or using a meat grinder. When buying nuts, you should choose high-quality kernels so that they do not become bitter later.

3. Step 3:

   Place the first pancake on a flat dish, grease it with condensed milk on top and sprinkle with chopped nuts, distributing them evenly throughout the pancake.

4. Step 4:

   Place the pancake again and do the same procedure with condensed milk and chopped nuts. Thus, we continue to assemble the pie, alternating layers of pancakes, condensed milk and nuts until the pancakes are gone.

5. Step 5:

   When the pie is completely assembled, put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours so that all the pancake layers are saturated with condensed milk.

In this recipe, regular condensed milk can be replaced with boiled milk, which will give the pie a very pleasant caramel taste. It will be even tastier if you cook condensed milk at home yourself. But you can also use store-bought ones. And walnuts can be replaced with hazelnuts or other hazelnuts. You can also experiment with homemade pancakes. They can be replaced with layers of unsweetened puff pastry. This dessert will be more airy. It is worth paying special attention to the quality of condensed milk. Under no circumstances use low-quality condensed milk with added vegetable fats. The taste of such a product is significantly inferior in taste to real whole condensed milk with sugar.

Yulkin's pie

Category: Baked goods Dough products Pies

May Yulia Vysotskaya forgive me, it was from her that this recipe came that I changed the name. She makes it sound like this: Delicate pie with peaches and pear. I must say that this is the true truth and the name is completely true. The pie is truly the most tender, but... it’s too long! The search engine returns 59 recipes for peach pie, and I honestly and courageously looked through all 5 pages. My conscience is clear, there is no such pie! Come on in, it's worth it. I must say that I have made some adjustments, but more on them in the process.

Cake Napoleon in shock

Category: Desserts Cakes Layer cake

Yes, don’t swear, another one, 101 “Napoleons” on this site, don’t immediately say “ugh”, look at the recipe, maybe it’s HIM. My male gourmet cake lovers only recognize homemade “Napoleon”, so through many years of experimentation, a recipe for the ideal dough for “Napoleon” cakes was found - airy, tender, crispy. And the cream - “Napoleon” has taken root with us in 3 variations and each homemade one was given its own name in order to somehow distinguish them. As you understand: the classic “Napoleon”, “Napoleon-Bonaparte” and “Napoleon in shock”. “Napoleon in Shock” I present to you, and I’ll tell you about the other two variations at the end. If you love “Napoleon” as much as we do, please come in, study it, adopt it!

Wheat flour Margarine Chicken egg Sour cream Vinegar Butter Condensed milk Dark chocolate Vanillin

A simple recipe in a frying pan

Cakes:

• 1 can of condensed milk;
• egg;
• ½ tsp. soda;
• 1 tbsp. l. vinegar;
• 3 tbsp. l. flour.

Cream:

• 750 ml milk;
• 4 tbsp. l. flour;
• 1 ½ tbsp. l. Sahara;
• 2 eggs;
• packing of butter.

Test preparation:

1. Dissolve baking soda in vinegar and pour into a bowl. Beat in the egg and shake the mixture with a fork. Add condensed milk to it and mix again.
2. Sift the flour into the dough and knead the dough. It will turn out soft, tender and almost non-stick to your hands.
3. Divide it into 8 - 10 identical parts and roll into layers up to 3 mm thick. The size of the workpieces should be suitable for the bottom of the frying pan, in which they need to be fried without oil for a couple of minutes on each side.
4. To make the cake even, stack the cakes and cut them to the diameter of the selected lid or plate. The best option is a split form. Finely chop the trimmings.

The next stage is cream:

1. Beat eggs, flour and sugar until mushy.
2. Pour milk into the resulting mixture and stir.
3. Place the mixture on low heat and stir as soon as it starts to heat up.
4. When the cream thickens, add the butter and stir, helping it melt.

The cream and cakes are ready, all that remains is to assemble the cake.

1. To do this, put the cake in a springform pan and pour a little cream on it. We repeat the procedure until we run out of blanks. During the process you need to press them a little.
2. Sprinkle crumbs over the top of the cake.
3. Place it in the refrigerator for 2 – 3 hours.

To prevent the dessert from becoming deformed when removing, run a thin knife along the edge of the mold, separating it. Next, open and remove the form.

On a note. A lot of cream is obtained from the specified amount of ingredients, so each cake can be poured thickly with it. You shouldn’t skimp on impregnation, otherwise the dessert will turn out dry.

Monastery hut made of puff pastry

• 500 g puff pastry;
• 2 tbsp. pitted cherries;
• 500 g sour cream with at least 30% fat content;
• 1 tbsp. powdered sugar.

Preparation is simple:

1. Defrost the dough and cut into 15 rectangular pieces, roll each one out.
2. Place the berries on the resulting blanks and seal the edges to create oblong tubes filled with berry filling.
3. We bake the tubes at 200 degrees. You don’t need much time – 15 – 20 minutes is enough. Afterwards, remove them from the oven and cool.
4. All that remains is to prepare the cream by whipping sour cream and powder.
5. Place 5 tubes on a flat plate and pour cream over them. The next layer is 4 tubes and again cream. We continue to lay out layers, each time using 1 strip less. The result will be a slide reminiscent of a monastery hut made of beams. Top the dessert with the remaining cream.

The cake should be refrigerated for several hours and sprinkled with almond flakes or cookie dough crumbs before serving.

On a note. Instead of cherries, you can put pieces of dried fruit or jam in this dessert.

Creating a layered tender cake

First, let's open the condensed milk. Grind the nuts using any available method. Now we take a wide and flat dish out of the cabinet so that the pancakes do not sag, but lie in even layers. Place the first pancake. Lubricate its surface with sweet condensed milk. Sprinkle with chopped nuts. Place the second pancake on top. We continue the same manipulations. You need to do this until all the pancakes are on the plate. Sprinkle the top one with nuts and decorate it based on your ideas about the beauty of the dessert. Place the resulting dessert in the refrigerator for several hours. During this time, the pancakes will be evenly saturated with the sweet layer and will absorb some of the nutty aroma and taste. Serve by cutting like a regular pie or cake.
