Rarely does anyone not like treats.Of course, strong and stern males are an exception to the rule. But women and children are born sweet tooths: they adore everything from chocolates to delicious pastries. If there are dessert lovers in your family, then our advice will be useful. We suggest preparing the classic "Anthill". It is absolutely not difficult, does not take much time, but is fantastically delicious!
"Anthill" according to the classic recipe
Any housewife can make such a cake.Even if you have never baked before, mastering this recipe will not be difficult. The advantage is that the products included in it are not very expensive, and you can buy them in any store. So this is an ideal option to pamper your family. Ingredients:
- three glasses of wheat (premium) flour
- one and a half glasses of sugar
- one pinch of salt
- 200 grams of not very fatty sour cream
- 200 grams of good margarine or butter (your choice) for the test
- 200 grams of butter (cream) for cream
- jar of boiled milk
- one and a half teaspoonful (without a slide) of a spoonful of soda
Method of preparation:To make the dough airy, sift the flour in advance. Then add the amount of margarine or butter (depending on what you chose), low-fat sour cream, sugar specified in the recipe and mix everything well. Some people do not add salt and soda, but you can. In this case, “quench” the latter with vinegar. Now knead the dough with your hands and pass it through a meat grinder, then put it on a baking sheet covered with special parchment. Bake until golden. The optimal oven temperature is 180 degrees. To prepare an appetizing cream, mix butter (cream) and boiled condensed milk in a deep bowl - just beat them with a spoon until smooth. If you took a regular can of milk, then to bring it to readiness, you will need to boil it for an hour and a half. Therefore, in order to save precious time, it is better to buy “boiled” milk in the store. When the dough is ready, take it out of the oven and grind thoroughly. Place the crumbs in a separate bowl, pour in the cream and mix. Then transfer the cake to a nice plate so that it forms a mound and put it in the refrigerator for three hours. Enjoy!
Sand "Anthill" with chocolate and poppy seeds
Many housewives do not take up baking, mistakenlyassuming that it is very difficult. Of course, there are different recipes, and some are quite difficult to master, especially for beginners. But the cake we offer you, as they say, is an easy classic of the genre. All you need to do is buy the ingredients, mix the dough and make the cream. Try making an anthill, and you will see for yourself! Ingredients: For the dough:
- 3 large spoons of sugar
- 200 grams of quality butter
- 2 teaspoons (without top) of a spoon of baking powder
- 3 tablespoons of low-fat sour cream
- 4 cups of sifted flour (we advise you to choose only the highest grade)
- a small amount of vanillin (literally at the tip of the knife)
For the cream:
- 200 grams of butter (creamy)
- 400 grams (or one pot) of boiled condensed milk
For decoration:
- 50 grams of any chocolate for your taste
- a small amount of poppy
- 50 grams of nuts (we used walnuts)
Method of preparation:Pre-sift the wheat flour, mix half of the portion specified in the recipe with baking powder. Melt the butter over low heat and pour it into a separate bowl. Then combine everything with sugar, not very fat sour cream, vanilla and mix thoroughly with a spoon or whisk. Now, gradually adding the rest of the flour, knead the dough with your hands. Roll it into a round ball and leave in a cool but dry place for 30 minutes. After this time, grind the dough with a meat grinder. If you do not have such a device, cut the base into thin strips with a knife or grate on a medium grater (before this, keep it in the freezer for a short time). The next step is baking: put the grated dough on a baking sheet (do not grease it with oil). If you are worried that it will “stick” to the metal, use special paper or parchment. Set the oven to 180 degrees and cook until a beautiful golden crust forms (about half an hour), then crush with a mortar or your hands. You can make a cake with regular cream, which includes condensed milk (boiled) and butter. But we suggest adding other ingredients for variety. So, beat the butter with a mixer and gradually (one spoon at a time) add milk. To save time, it is better to buy ready-made "boiled". Mix the cream well until smooth. Combine it with the dough and stir, then pour in the crushed walnuts (or any others at your discretion). Put everything in a heap on a large plate. Grate the chocolate on a fine grater, take the poppy seeds and decorate the product with them. Put the cake in the refrigerator or another place (the main thing is that it is cool) for a couple of hours, and ideally - overnight. We hope you liked this recipe. Some housewives add raisins, nuts and even prunes to the "Muraveynik". You can also add any ingredients you like. Use the classic recipe, "season" it with your bold decisions and cook for your own pleasure!
