Cake "Ladies fingers"

[Sindi]

Sindi,

Uh, just full-fledged eclairs. Very nice!

Natasha, otechik New Year's snowdrift with Santa Claus, Christmas tree and snowmen

Ir, tell the military secret. What did you disguise the cake with? Tomorrow I will bake (birthday, so to speak) Everyone is good. Very tasty, but the top is somehow unfinished.

Thank you very much for the recipe! I never thought that I would be able to bake eclairs, but I tried it, I did everything according to your recommendations - and it worked the first time. I made a cake for my husband for his birthday, he loves eclairs very much.
Only the dough after brewing was not smooth and shiny, like yours, but just homogeneous, somewhat like mashed potatoes, I even doubted that I did everything right, but the result was wonderful. Thanks again!

And I baked this cake for my husband on February 14, before that he had not tried it - he had not been at home for a long time. I liked it so much, my son and I hardly even ate, as they say to children and the sick, in the first place. Thanks again, Natus!

I am glad for all those who have made up their minds and who have won glory for centuries among their loved ones.

The cake is simple in terms of products, but the result is surprisingly good.

[iris. ka]

iris. ka, forgive me late, I saw that in addition to sour cream 30% I add 33% more cream, so it is more "standing", but no less tasty.

This cake is the most memorable and quick to eat, with a simple set of products. Whatever baked, we always return to the "fingers".

[Nettle]

Nettle,

I totally agree. Simple, clear and very bright taste. I love it.

Probably this is the only cake that I like to taste, because I am generally indifferent to baking I have been baking it for 25 years, or even more, I used to knead the dough and roll it with handles, then I got a pastry bag and Kesha ... and that I am most enraged by the fact that I want to once again practice decorating, well, like there are roses-borders, and my pets begin to whine before every occasion for a cake, come on "fingers", yes come on "fingers" I keep the defense

[Scarecrow]

Scarecrow, you are my ideological inspirer! How long have I been thinking, gathering my thoughts, afraid ... Even the bag was bought long ago, but there was no chance to try it. In general, I put the bread on the railway, while it comes up I wanted to bake something

(we have a tradition in our family .. and grandfather would have been 95 years old)

and then the idea came to me to try eclairs. Since I did not understand at all what would come of it, I did everything according to your instructions)))
BUT! If I did everything according to the recipe, it would not be me))) Therefore, now I know for sure which fingers are obtained on your cake and next time I will try to collect it.
Therefore, I stuffed them with custard))) I barely took the trial versions from my husband! Tomorrow I'll take you to work, we'll have everything there!
In general, now I'm not afraid !!!
accept, crooked, koshenny, but delicious!

[marina-asti]

marina-asti,

And someone you call them crooked names ?! Fucking eclairs, I would say .... And try the cake itself. Everything seems to be simple - pour sour cream more. But you can't take it away from your husband entirely))).

Well, the "excellent pupil syndrome" in me will not be exterminated, so I want even, even! But I will train)))
Now at least it is clear how to squeeze them out, with what effort and so on.
I will probably make the cake myself on May 9, it was too lazy to blow up yesterday at 12 at night and go for sour cream

Hurray, I did it - I made choux pastry! These are my "fingers". Very tasty (yes, I ate three pieces !!!!: girl_dance: And I still really restrained myself, since 1 serving is quite a bit, I went on 1 sheet). I added cocoa to the cream and sprinkled with grated chocolate.And I had to stop! But no - I also decided to melt the chocolate and pour stripes on the cake. And the chocolate seemed to be good, but she didn't want to pour in stripes, but fell in pieces, and not very neat - so I won't show the cake
I think that my men will not mind the chocolate pieces on the cake. And if there are, then the night is long ...

Scarecrow, thank you very much for the recipe! I, too, with my "fingers" ... The design idea is taken on the site "Video cookery. Ru". But I didn't add strawberries, alas, it's not the season ... Cream of our own production - 400 g of store sour cream 25%, 1 glass of sugar, vanillin. Whisk a little to dissolve the sugar and add 250g. heavy cream (40%) or fatty sour cream. Mix. beat separately 600 ml. 33% cream with 100 g of powdered sugar. Combine both creams, mix gently. We really like it!



And the cutter



The top was covered with plums whipped with powdered sugar.

[fish]

fish, inside the cake, too, layered with kiwi?

Yes, also kiwi, I needed more strawberries, but there were none ... But all the same, the sourness was felt, very handy.

[fish]

fish,

There were no incidents with kiwi? Kiwi with milk often starts to taste bitter.

Kiwi with milk often starts to taste bitter

I heard about this many times, but in practice, fortunately, it was not confirmed ...

[Scarecrow]

Scarecrow, everything was fine with kiwi ... In the cake itself, I cut it into pieces, nothing tasted bitter ...

Well, that's why I came here, I want a cake again ...

Kiwi with milk often starts to taste bitter.

I confirm. I once made a "Turtle" cake with kiwi and for some reason from the very beginning it did not taste very bitter, but after a couple of days the bitterness was already present. The truth apparently still depends on the kiwi itself. I made a cake 2 times: the first time I put not so much kiwi than the second. And for some reason, when they ate the first cake, they did not feel bitterness.

Thanks for the recipe, I'm bringing a cake, baked in a princess churrosmaker.

What a beautiful! I immediately wanted a piece ...

What a handsome man! Yes, you will see enough of "Fingers" and the diet is resting ...

Ingredients
water 300ml
butter 100gr
flour 170 gr
eggs 6-7 pcs
salt 0.5 tsp
sour cream 30 percent 1.2 kg
sugar 500g
vanilla sugar 1 table l
Cooking method

Let's prepare
choux pastry. Put 100 grams of butter in a saucepan or
margarine, pour 300 milliliters of water or milk, salt. We put on fire
bring to a boil. Add 170 grams of flour, stirring vigorously,
knead the choux pastry. In the process of mixing, reduce the heat to medium.
The dough should be lagging behind the sides of the pot and a lump should form. We shift
dough in a mixer bowl and mix at low speed for three
minutes, so that the dough cools down a little and steam comes out of it. We continue
stir at low speed, adding 6-7 eggs one by one. The finished dough should
get smooth, shiny and viscous, medium density. In the process of mixing
dough, remove it 1-2 times from the walls of the mixer bowl. Ready dough
transfer to a pastry bag with a round nozzle with a diameter of 1 centimeter.
Using a pastry bag, spread the dough on a baking sheet greased with thin
with a layer of butter We spread the dough on a baking sheet in the form of sticks. Bake
in a preheated oven at 210 degrees for 5 minutes, then
lower the temperature to 190. and bake another 15 minutes until tender. We take out from
oven and let cool. Put 1.2 kilograms of fat sour cream in a mixer bowl
(at least 30% fat), add 20 grams of vanilla sugar and 500 grams
granulated sugar. Stir at low speed, then increase the speed and
beat until fluffy cream is obtained. In a split form with a diameter of 28
centimeters, put 5 tablespoons of cream. We leave a little cream. In a container with
dip the sticks with cream and lay them in rows. "Fingers" should
be generously oiled with cream. We spread the first layer of "fingers"
very tight and close to each other if small holes are formed,
you can break the "fingers" into smaller pieces and close them. Top
grease with the remnants of the cream, level it, put a flat lid on it
a little oppression. We put the cake in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours. Then Remove
cover from the cake and turn it over onto a flat dish. We carefully remove
detachable form. Lubricate the surface and sides of the cake with the remaining cream. And we put
back to the refrigerator.

I'm shocked myself how people can do it !!))

That's right, you called it - we have cookery, no more))) ...

Hope, good day, as you yourself know, this recipe is already available on our forum. You yourself wrote "thank you" to the author here hereby showing a photo of this cake.

[hope nel]

hope nel, very interesting design! Please tell us how to arrange such a cake?

but what do you think, is it really possible to make choux pastry with a hand mixer? otherwise, at the weekend at DR's mother-in-law, I thought at first to make one cake, but now I fell in love with this one, and it seems to be even simpler and cheaper than my idea, now I think if I can handle it.

Of course you can handle it, is it electric? Or completely manual, mechanical?

[7 years]

Yes, I do not understand why recipes are duplicated?
We are already here 7 years Chuchelkin cake ladies fingers baking ... baked for 20 pages

but what do you think, is it really possible to make choux pastry with a hand mixer? otherwise, at the weekend with DR's mother-in-law, I thought at first to make one cake, but now I fell in love with this one, and it seems to be even simpler and cheaper than my idea, now I think if I can handle it.

Really. Even manually is real. The dough is not dumplings. It's just that it's hard to mix at first, because everything in the eggs is in pieces. But with an effort, you can.

Of course you can handle it

no, I will inquire in terms of whether he will give him a son, because if the flour has already been thrown, it is necessary to interfere, you will not go away, and suddenly the little one just at that second will go broke, he loves, mother only sits down to eat. he immediately wakes up and screams, the law of meanness is called)
and the mixer is electric and even with a rotating bowl.
So, it's decided, I'll try to make your cake.
and on top I think to decorate jelly just quickly and beautifully)

Custard, as Chuchelka correctly said, can be made even without a mixer. The main thing is to carefully stir in each egg.

Mom just sits down to eat. he immediately wakes up and screams,

Have this property in babies

Another my cake "Ladies fingers", but the cream is not sour cream, but "Charlotte" with condensed milk. and also chocolate icing for decoration

[hope nel]

hope nel, looks nice, I'll make my son such a cake on the other, I think my mother-in-law did not do it then
how did you fill it up like that? to come out in different colors?

adelinalina, I first smeared a little charlotte cream on top after the cake had cooled under oppression in a mold in the refrigerator. Then she poured it with icing, then in the center again a little charlotte. Then, with a skewer, I drew lines from the edge to the center. And then he spilled himself in and it happened like this. here and there, with a skewer, I drew white cream on the glaze. I don’t know whether you wrote it clearly or not? )))

I don’t know whether you wrote it clearly or not? )))

yes, thanks, we will try

Great recipe, thanks! I made a double portion at once, I was very worn out with molding, the bags burst one after the other, I tried to sculpt with my hands, it takes a lot of time, but I found a way out, maybe someone will come in handy. Take a lump of dough , knead into a track , 1cm thick, 6-8 centimeters wide, long - as it turns out, we must moisten the plastic dough knife with water and cut into strips , immediately grab them with the same knife and put them on a baking sheet P1060303.JPG]... Quickly, simply, the shape is beautiful, correct - with your fingers . Sour cream, made with gelatin for insurance, sprinkled with grated chocolate. Delicious.

I light, I can't knead the dough in any way. It is like a sticky semolina. Smear in one word. You see it turned out thicker. Eh, we have to wait for Scarecrow, she will put everything on the shelves. Although, what's the problem then? I liked it and this is the main thing! We also got hooked on this cake. My daughter's girlfriend tried it and then advertised it in the hostel. Duck is now squeezing Lady's fingers from mine.

It's like a sticky semolina

Yes, I also got it right away like semolina porridge, but I fiddled with molding for a long time, the dough cooled down, the oil probably cooled down, gave the dough viscosity, in general, everything was for the better. But I wonder if the oven will work the next day after kneading?

looked in here by accident. how long has this topic been open, and everything is relevant.
I remembered that my aunt baked such a cake every holiday, sprinkled cocoa on top. She did not have a bowl then, the liquid sour cream flowed down, and we quietly waited for the bottom layer
and I now realized that on NG only such a cake is needed, when there is no need to cut and serve, I put up a dish (there is no point in messing around with the dish, you just need a dish !!!!!) - and everyone reaches out for the cake and washed down with endless tea.
and you don't need to decorate it! ABOUT MIRACLE. I was tortured by jewelry for a whole year, glazes, rulers and beautiful smudges
by the way, I recently read from Maria Selyanina, whom I love to read and watch, that the era of macarons has passed, now the highest culinary magicians are fighting for the coolest eclair. here we will be on the crest of the wave with this wonderful cake !!!!
sorry if I wrote a lot

and now I realized that on NG you only need such a cake when you don't need to cut and serve

🔗

I make it on a pizza plate))). And I serve this "monster-like" cake with just forks. All dig "caves" from their side))). My family's favorite cake. For many years. No wonder I posted it.
