Cooking method

• 
• thanks to magic pendel to Olya's advice - I'm glad I'm spreading the recipe.
• old, from a school notebook, 30 years old) to him. tasty. sincere. plain.
• about margarine - I try not to use it myself, but from experience - with butter - not that oak.
• now I use the spread "Oil Kremlin" in dark brown foil - ideal for shortcrust pastry.
• Biscuits:
• Grate margarine and combine with sugar and flour mixed with baking powder, add sour cream, quickly knead the dough, divide it into portions suitable for your meat grinder in size (for ease of use).
• leave in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, while preparing a baking sheet and a meat grinder, turn on the oven.
• then turn the dough through a meat grinder, spreading the "spaghetti" on a baking sheet, try to put it in one layer. without "gaps" everything fits on a standard baking sheet.
• bake at 220 degrees until a beautiful blush, gold well, it tastes better) I often bake cookies the day before, so I leave them to dry in a cooling oven.
• break the cooled "cookie" arbitrarily, but do not grind it into dust, otherwise my girlfriend tried to make it so that we then got the cake with a knife and a hammer, so it cemented) and we were 17 years old
• then mix the crumbs with cream, to taste, nuts and / or poppy seeds.
• the mass perfectly takes any shape from a cupcake with a hole to architectural (castles, fortresses), in which it solidifies.
• put in the refrigerator.
• in the photo the creation of my husband, well, my son helped, he was 11) our tradition is this: on March 8, my men bake an anthill for me. at first I made the dough for them and left it in the refrigerator, and then somehow they themselves got involved.
• Cream: 1 can of condensed milk "stag", boiled for 3-3.5 hours (cool !!!), beat with butter, ideally if both components are at the same room temperature, you can add nuts or poppy seeds to the cream

Oh, how beautifully decorated !!!

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, one of my favorite cakes! I use a different recipe, however, I prepare the dough, but the principle is the same. And your men are great, the cake looks very tasty

[Tina]

Tina, thanks for your attention, I am pleased

.

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, beautifully! Thank you, I tried different anthills, but so that with the paths and moves of ants, I did not eat! Maybe the ants are hiding inside?

[Oksana]

Oksana, and this is not for ants)))
there is in the Crimea on the Sea of ​​Azov the city of Shchelkino, our favorite vacation spot! a red brick gazebo was built on the steep bank.
this cake is "based on" a summer holiday (already 10 years ago))))
blue coconut sea stands for)

Well done! Good "sand castle" anthill! The whole family did their best!
How did you start eating? From the turret? Or were they digging and chipping off piece by piece?

))) digging

Aha! The most delicious is hidden in the depths

Aha! The most delicious is hidden in the depths

and you knew! knew!
listen, and this is a thought: to dig a treasure for children ... and who will pick it up ..

Well, finally, I waited! Pretty boy!!!

I am writing from the road, I will delve into the house!

Well, finally, I waited! Pretty boy!!!

I am writing from the road, I will delve into the house!

Ol, yes, all of you!
why wait, you need to cook and enjoy

[eye]

eye, Tatyana!
Great cake! We need to cook ... and enjoy! But I cannot master such a Fortress ...
I took the recipe to the "bins"!

[Elena]

Elena, thanks, it can be stored for a long time, a week is easy, it is delicious to eat, breaking with your fingers, of course, a piece on your plate)

[Tatyana]

Tatyana,

it is delicious to eat, breaking it with your fingers, of course, a piece on your plate)

You can even break off such a delicious cake on a neighbor's plate!

nuna, it's tastier there, adherent !!!

The cake is very tasty, the only thing - for this amount of dough I make 2 servings of cream - then it turns out softer ... (well, more of it, but what?)

[Tatyana]

old, from a school notebook, 30 years old) to him. tasty. sincere. plain.

Tatyana, and the presentation is a feast for the eyes. GOOD MEN 🔗 There is no better gift. And the fact that it also became a tradition. 🔗

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, thanks for taking the trouble and putting out the recipe !!!
Strange, but I have never seen or eaten Anthill !!!
Now there is a reason to do it !!! The old, proven recipes are the simplest and most delicious !!!!!
And show children what delicacies we had in our childhood !!!

[eye]

eye, Tanya !!!!!! You have not "Anthill", but just the same "Termites Palace".
Did you create the turret with a glass? Dyed coconut grass around the nest?
White shavings can be used to decorate an anthill in winter.
Thank you for reminding me of this cake. I just wanted an anthill .... no strength.

I do not like to fool around with a meat grinder, I rolled out the dough and flattened it with my palms on a baking sheet, cut it straight on the baking sheet into narrow strips. Then she broke them into pieces. More convenient than with a meat grinder

[Irina,]

More convenient than with a meat grinder

Irina, certainly more convenient, but ... This will not be the same "Anthill". In the present, such as Tatyana's, there are "worms", not a soldered mass. What a pleasure it is - to break the last pieces of the cake into separate "worms" and enjoy! This is the taste of childhood!
Tatyana, thanks for the recipe! Very similar to the cake that I know and have baked since childhood. But we never cook condensed milk. It tastes better with "raw".

I also never ate an anthill, it looks very appetizing, thanks for the recipe.

In my youth, the anthill was "glued" only with boiled condensed milk, without butter. And with my favorite cream butter + condensed milk will be tastier.

But we never cook condensed milk.

Elena, here I have always made from raw condensed milk, so I was taught. Traditionally, I baked my son from first grade for his birthday, and now he will be 40 years old on Saturday. I lost the notebook long ago, Rada reminded me well of the worm cookies and thanks to Sveta for the anthill recipe. Only I'm afraid such beauty is beyond my control, I will make it the old fashioned way with a cone and grated chocolate on top.

[Irina,]

... I'll make it the old fashioned way with a cone and grated chocolate on top.

Irina, and sprinkle with icing sugar on top!

[cheese]

In the present, such as Tatyana's, there are "worms", not a soldered mass.

Lena, her, not welded mass - a layer of dough in cheese I cut it into narrow strips = just separate ready-made strips are obtained, evenly baked, and quickly break them into small pieces.

Well, whoever is more convenient to form the dough for baking, the taste does not change.
One friend, even for baking, rolled a thin sausage out of dough and cut it into small pieces, that is, there is no need to break it later
It's all the same how to shape the dough = taste without loss, you can't eat only a little high-calorie

[Tatyana]

Tatyanawhat a wonderful anthill! I, to my shame, have never even tasted such a cake. Must be prepared.

[Seven-year plan]

Strange, but I have never seen or eaten Anthill !!!

I also never ate an anthill, it looks very appetizing, thanks for the recipe.

never even tried such a cake

Seven-year plan, kil, Babushka, I must admit, I was treated to an anthill only twice in my life:
the first year at 5, a party, I drag smoked sausage from the table, and they persuade me in chorus to try something of an incomprehensible color and shape, and even with a strange name "anthill". Since childhood, I have been calm about sweets and therefore I do not agree with anything and continue to hit the sausage, endangering the amount of snacks))) only after returning home I slowly tasted a small piece of this something (they treated me to it) ... then more .. and then I realized what a fool she was that did not give in to the persuasion of adults.
the second time, according to my recipe, a friend made a cake for her birthday. only she crumbled the cookies into dust and, on the advice of her mother, melted butter for the cream. violation of technology led to the fact that my friends and I "got" the cake with a hammer and a knife, but it was tasteless.
this is what I mean, it's not surprising that they haven't tried it, by the way, I'm also very reluctant to share it with my fingers, for in-house use, and for the guests I'd rather bake a second cake)))

Only I'm afraid such beauty is beyond my control, I will make it the old fashioned way with a cone and grated chocolate on top.

Svetlana, try it in any large cake pan, even with a hole: after hardening, it can be removed and hardened very well, keeps its shape.

girls, thank you very much for your attention, I confess, I did not expect it, I was very touched!
I highly recommend cooking, grateful pastries.

Tan, now I enjoyed the view of the castle in a calm atmosphere!
What to say! You have talented men !! Thanks for such a great design idea!
Nice to see such recipes!

In the castle, delirious
The violin sang and sang
And in the garden she lived in a pond
Gold fish.
Let them not see her
Ball musicians
But from the goldfish
The music sounded!

Inspired by ... Alaverdy, so to speak!

I'll put your "Castle" on a good dish, bring a pond and fish, somehow I came up with it.

Ol, merci for compliment)))
yeah, we love all that ... castles .. towers ...
and what a wonderful rhyme ... immediately the picture was drawn
let's bake already, otherwise I'm tired of waiting for your masterpieces too, but on a platter))) on a good one)))

I baked something, nothing special, but with an addition of my own, I will expose it.

I baked something, nothing special, but with an addition of my own, I will expose it.

intrigue and modest at the same time)))

How beautifully designed. And nothing comes to my mind like a cone))) maybe, who is interested. As a child, I was too lazy with a meat grinder, I crushed the worms through a garlic press, it seemed to me faster, taking into account the time of washing and collecting / disassembling the meat grinder. Made on one boiled condensed milk, you must try your recipe. Thank you

[tany81]

tany81, through the garlic press, in my opinion, och long and laborious

my friend at school cut the potatoes into too-small strips for an hour, so that later it would be faster to fry, and she took and stuck together nafig

but I don’t like to wash the meat grinder, once, even in the spirit of love is chewing gum, it was born: "love is when he not only twists the meat, but also cleans the meat grinder afterwards"

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, thanks for the recipe and such an interesting performance of the cake. Isn't it worth even trying with butter? Spread only or margarine?

[Natalia]

Natalia, taking into account the risk assessment of narvazza for real oil ... whoever forbids trying, it will turn out, for sure.
but we like it with a spread, we don't use it anywhere else, and in cookies it gives crumbling. with butter, tougher cookies come out. and the original Soviet recipe had margarine.

[Tanyush]

Tanyush, yes, I might not have had anything against margarine, if not for one BUT .... My mother is a doctor, and so she set us up against this very margarine Says, no way and Fse !!! They say the fats there are transgenic, they are not excreted by anything even with alcohol from the body. Now, even in my hands in the store, I'm afraid to take it, I look around (so it seems that my mother is nearby)

the diagnosis is ...
well, tada, maybe lard ...
does mom whip butter out of her cream?
What I mean: sometimes, than incomprehensible butter, an honest spread is better.
take a look at the link, maybe let go.
🔗
and mom doesn't need to know all the details, take care of her)))

Lard, to be honest, I don't know what it is: oops: and where it is sold))) I buy oil in 30 packs, throw it into the freezer. So, I have heaps of it. I don’t mind anything about the spread (but I don’t buy it either for some reason), only a special attitude towards margarine has already developed, nothing can be done. Vopschem, what is the verdict? It won't work with butter, right?

Natasha, it will work with butter, but with a spread there will be more crumbly cookies.
good luck!

I love the anthill. Only I always made it with raw condensed milk, well, traditionally on margarine or a mixture of margarine + butter in half ... And recently, there was not enough margarine, and I added ghee. It turned out so delicious !!!
A very original form of your anthill. It's even a pity to have such beauty And Shchelkino was also our favorite vacation spot, until 2013. We went there almost every year. But for the last couple of years, the gazebo was no longer there.

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, this is a 2005 photo.
yes, we were in 2012, alas)))

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, and adopt me, and ..... I love the anthill so much ....

namesake, gee-gee, sama-sama-sama ...

Ahhh, death to the figure and the pancreas !! But it's so tasty - just tin. One of the most beloved cakes since childhood!

Tanya, who sculpted this very tower ???
