Tejszínes-mézes-krémes, the creamiest of all

This dessert with the really long name is the right delightment for your taste buds. Tejszínes-mézes-krémes stands for whipped creamy-honeyed-creamy. As you can see, it's something overly creamy. But when you eat this sweet, please, don't pay attention for the calories because it won't taste so good ;)
The cream melts in your mouth when you take a bite of it and you feel like walking on clouds. The dessert is so creamy and light that you have the feeling of tasting a sprinkle of heaven.
Are you excited?
If your answer is yes (I can't except no-s), then grab your best egg-whisk and let's the baking begin!

The ingredients are the following for the two layers of dough:

4 oz of sugar ( 10 dkg cukor)
2 oz of margarine (5 dkg margarin)
1 tablespoon of honey (evőkanál méz)
1 egg (tojás)
11 oz of flour (30 dkg liszt)
1 coffee spoon of baking soda (kavéskanálnyi szóda-bikarbóna)




Add the sugar, the margarine, the honey, and the egg into a big bowl. Heat them at a small flame.








Taking it off from the fire, add the flour and the baking soda. Mix it until you get a dough.

Divide the dough into two equal halfs. Roll each of the size of your baking pan. Then bake one after another on your baking pan. Be cautious about placing the rolled dough on the baking tin, do not break it!

On the next picture you will see the baked layer.

Now, it's creamy time:

2 vanilla puddings (vanília puding)

6 deciliters of milk (tej)

9 oz of butter (25 dkg vaj)

9 oz of powdered sugar (25 dkg porcukor)

Cook the puddings in milk. When it is cool, add the butter that you had blended in the powdered sugar before. Mix the two things together.

Whipped cream:

1/2 liter of cream

1 packet of foam fixer

As Micheal Jackson would sing 'Beat it'. It's ready, if you turn the bowl upside-down and the foam doesn't fall on the ground.

Now add 2 or 3 tablespoons of the whipped cream into the cream. Mix it carefully without breaking the foam.

Now, we can build our creamy dream.
 First, spread the cream on the lower layer.







Then put whipped cream on the cream. I know it sound funny but it's delicious!





Finish it by putting the second layer on the top.







Crown it by putting chocolate glaze on the top layer.






At last, but not least, enjoy the 'creamception'!

When you have guests, bake kókuszkocka

Kókuszkocka is one of the easiest and simplest sweets that you can bake if someone stops by. It is a sponge-cake glazed in chocolate and rolled in coconut raspings. Try it and fall in love!

 At home, we bake it at Easter time, as guests like to have something not so creamy, as the cream can fall on their pretty shirts. The flavors perfectly complete each other. Moreover, you can bake it with your children or family members because it is fun to deep the sponge-cake into the liquid chocolate then roll it in the coconut raspings. Of course, it can make a hell of a mess; so, put something under the working area, for example old newspapers.

And now, let's see what we need:

 For the sponge-cake:

6 eggs (tojás)
6 tablespoons of flour (evőkanál liszt)
6 tablespoons of sugar (evőkanál cukor)
1 vanilla sugar (vaníliás cukor)
1 sprinkle of salt (csiper só)
1 packet of baking soda (sütőpor)

For the chocolate glazing:

4 oz of dark chocolate (10 dkg keserű csokoládé)
1 deciliter of cream (tejszin)
 2 oz of butter (5 dkg vaj)

And coconut raspings.




Churn 6 yolks with 6 tablepsoons of sugar and with the vanilla sugar. In a bowl, mix the fluor with the baking soda. Add salt to the egg-whites, then beat hard foam of them.

Pour half of the flour on the yolks, mix it, then add the other half of the flour, too. When you add the foam, be cautios not breaking it. With wide moves, mix the dollop. If you break the foam, your sponge-cake will be flat.

Pour the dollop into a baking pan that you had greased before with margarine and bestrewed with flour. Bake it until it gets auburn.

Here is the result:

Making the glaze is easy-peasy. Break the chocolate into pieces. With the cream and with the butter melt it above steam.

When the sponge-cake is half-cool, cut it into dices.

Put the dices on a fork and deep them into the chocolate glaze. 

Then roll them into coconut raspings. 

Now, you are ready to taste your own creation!

It's nice, it's tasty. So, what are you waiting for? :)

Csokis-almás, the superior combination of apple and chocolate

Dear Reader,

First of all, I would like to thank you following this blog. I've reached the number of 400 readers, which is a great number if you consider that it's only a school-project blog. Nevertheless, today is my mother's birthday. I would like to thank her all the love and help that she gives me every day. Without her, this blog couldn't exist. So, happy birthday, Mom!

This week, you will get familiar with csokis-almás, which is one of my mother's specialities. This cake's main ingredients are chocolate and grained apple. Their mixture is just fabulous as the cake melts in your mouth.

Since this cake is rather complicated, I would list the ingredients separately, as it's easy to lost track.

Let's begin with:
7 oz of margarine (20 dkg margarin)
11 oz of flour (30 dkg liszt)
1 egg (tojás)
2 tablespoons of sugar ( evőkanál cukor)
1 baking soda (sütőpor)
                                      This will give you enough dough for two layers.

.

Knead all the ingredients together and let them rest for half an hour. It should look like this








Divide the dough into two equal halves. Roll the fist piece of dough until it's about 1/8 inch (3mm). Repeat the same action after putting the filling on the first layer of dough.

Lay the first layer in a baking pan in which you had put greaseproof paper before.

Now, it's filling-time! :)
You'll need:
5 grained apples (alma)
7 oz of sugar (20 dkg cukor)
4 yolks (tojássárgája)
1 tablespoon of bitter cocoa-powder ( keserű kakaópor)
5 oz of grained walnuts (15 dkg dió)
1/2 of a pocket of baking soda ( sütőpor)
1 vanillasugar ( vaníliás cukor)
the foam of 4 egg-whites (tojásfehérje)

Mix everything together. Then add the foam. Pay attention not to break it.
Mix it with wide moves.

Now, put the mixture on the first layer into the baking pan.

Then put the second layer of dough on the mixture just like this:







Before baking, twinge it with a fork, so that the vapour could come out.

After it is baked, glaze it with chocolate.

You'll need:
3 tablespoons of bitter cocoa powder (kakaópor)
1 oz of sugar (3 dkg cukor)
5 tablespoons of water (víz)
2 oz of butter (5 dkg vaj)

Cook the sugar and the water on a slow fire, with continous stirring. Then add the cocoa powder. When it boiled, leave it cook for another 3-4 minutes. Taking it off from the fire, mix it with butter. Leave it to cool but stir it sometimes. Then glaze the cake.

And last but not least, enjoy it!

Oh, I've almost forgotten, Happy Easter!

See you next week! :)

Gőzönfőtt gombóc or look for the plum inside ;)

This weeks dessert is not the simplest that you've ever made but could be the tastiest. It takes time to prepare, yet in the end you'll be satisfied with your work. Today we're going to make gőzönfőtt gombóc. It is  a sweet that doesn't need baking but cooking. Or to be more specific, it is cooked by steam. Interesting, isn't it?

So, let's the work start. We'll need:

3 dkg (1 oz) of yeast (élesztő) which we run up in 1 tablespoon of sugar (evőkanál cukor) and in 1 deciliter milk (tej)
3 deciliter of milk (tej)
0,5 deciliter of vegetable oil (olaj)
60 dkg (1,32 lb) of fluor (liszt)







Mix the ingredients then let them knead for an hour.
Roll out the dough. It
should be 1 cm (0,39  inch) thick.









Cut the rolled out dough into squares, as seen below.

At the center of every square, put plum jam or a plum that you've sprinkled with cinnamon & sugar before.

I've used plum jam.























Form dumplings by sticking the corners of the dough crosswise.

At the end, you'll have cute dumplings like these.

Then boil water in a fairly big pot. If you don't have a strainer, then using gauze would be okay, too. With gauze cover the pot tightly, like this:

When the water is boiling, place the dumpling on the gauze. When you have placed the dumplings, cover them with a big bowl.

The bowl has to cover the pot really tightly.

Leave the bowl on the dumplings for 10 minutes. It's really important not to move it. After 10 minutes, they would look like this. Put them on a tray. 

Now, melt some butter. And mix grained walnuts with sugar. 

Grease the dumpling with the melted butter then sprinkle them with the sugared walnut. 

 

And now, you can enjoy your work!
