Cake "Bird's milk" - the most ideal recipe

Bird's Milk Cake is a fairly well-known dessert that we ate back in childhood. Many people love this cake for its special and delicate taste, which is emphasized by a chocolate note. Without any problems, you can try “Bird's Milk” in many pastry shops or buy it in stores, but of course, a homemade cake will be much tastier. We will share with you tips on how to easily prepare the “Bird's Milk” cake so that everyone who tries it will be delighted and ask you for this recipe. The cake consists of chocolate sponge cakes and airy milk filling, it is this combination that makes the taste of the dessert so unique. 

To prepare the sponge cake we will need: flour, eggs, cocoa, baking powder, starch. Be sure to sift the flour a couple of times through a sieve, then it will be more saturated with oxygen, which will make the cake airy and porous. What about eggs: beat the white and yolk separately. Beat the egg whites until they form a thick foam. To make the whites whip better, add a small pinch of salt to them, and if you have a little time, put the whites in the refrigerator. Beat the yolks until they become pale yellow and thick in consistency. After whisking the eggs, mix all the dry ingredients: flour, starch, cocoa and baking powder.We add starch to make the cake more elastic and not sag under the milk mass, which we will lay on top. Mix the dry ingredients with the eggs using a whisk and not a mixer, then we will keep more air bubbles inside the dough. Place the baking sheet with the dough in a well-heated oven and bake for about half an hour. You can check the readiness of the cake with a toothpick..

The milk filling that we put on top is very easy to prepare. First of all, you need to cook semolina in milk. Pour semolina into the hot milk in a thin stream, stirring very carefully with a whisk so that no lumps form. When the semolina is well cooked, remove from heat and cool completely. Beat the butter with a mixer until it increases in volume. Add powdered sugar to the butter in parts and beat with a mixer. Later, add boiled semolina a tablespoon at a time to the oil mixture and beat until smooth.

When everything is ready, we can assemble our cake. Spread our cream evenly onto the cake and smooth it well throughout.
