- 1/3 teaspoon of soda
- 1/2 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice

- cherries - 300 grams
- hazelnut fried - 1 glass
- milk - 40 milliliters
- 100 grams of butter
Method of preparation:Prepare a convenient biscuit form in advance. It is better if it is detachable and has high sides, because the dough increases significantly in size during baking. Cover the bottom of the form with parchment, grease the sides with butter. Now you can start making the cake dough. The main principle of its preparation is that all the ingredients should be introduced gradually and in small portions. So, the whites should be separated from the yolks. In a dry bowl, beat them until a strong foam. Without turning off the mixer, add sugar in small portions, and then add all the yolks one by one. Next, turn off the mixer and put it aside. All further actions will be performed with a spoon (preferably wooden). In a separate bowl, sift the dry ingredients: flour and cocoa. Add them to the dough little by little, stirring thoroughly and kneading the lumps. Quench the soda with lemon juice and add to the total mass - the dough is ready. Then it needs to be put into the prepared form and sent to bake in the oven (temperature 180 °C). The whole process will take about 40 minutes. After that, you must check the readiness of the cake by piercing it in the middle with a match. Take the finished sponge cake out of the oven, cool it, remove it from the form and cut it into two parts, one of which will be the base of the Sancho Pancho cake. The other, larger part, needs to be cut into pieces of 2-3 centimeters. It's time to get down to the cream, let us remind you of its simple recipe: first, whip one sour cream, then gradually add granulated sugar to it. Remember that this sweet dressing should not contain any sugar grains, whip until it is completely dissolved. Try the finished cream to taste, if you like it sweeter, then you can increase the amount of sugar. Since cherries will be put in the cake as a filling, it should be noted that any berries will do - fresh or canned. You can also use frozen ones — it all depends on the season. Remove the pits from the cherries and roll them in a small amount of starch. Now it’s time for the most important moment — assembling the cake. Place the base cake on a flat plate, soak it in cherry juice mixed with sugar. Next, apply a layer of sour cream, put some cherries and nuts in one “layer”. Dip the sliced biscuits one by one into the cream and put them on the cake. Don’t forget to alternately place the berries and nuts between the layers of the cake. Remember that the “Sancho Pancho” mold should be cone-shaped. The top of the cake is traditionally decorated with chocolate icing. To make it, mix sugar and cocoa powder in the specified amounts, add milk, and, stirring constantly, keep on low heat for 5-10 minutes. Finally, add 100 grams of butter and stir. When the icing has cooled, you can start covering the cake with it. After this, the newly baked dessert needs to stay in the refrigerator for at least 5 hours, and it is better if it stays there overnight. In the morning, you can serve the cake on the table and enjoy the wonderful fruit and chocolate masterpiece!
