No cake compares to this pie

"No cake compares to this pie," said my children. And they are absolutely right. They cut off a piece to try, and did not rest until they ate the entire cake to the last crumb. The fluffy, airy dough is soaked not only with berry juice, but also with a creamy filling!

Ingredients:

• warm boiled milk - 200 g
• yeast - 25 g fresh (7 g dry)
• salt - a pinch
• sugar - 120 g
• egg - 2 pc.
• butter - 120 g
• vegetable oil - 20 g
• cognac - 10 g
• sifted flour - 500 g
• vanillin - 2 g

Toppings:

• sugar - 150 g
• butter - 50 g
• strawberries - 200 g
• starch - 1 tsp.

Preparation:

I pour warm boiled milk into the bowl where I make the steam, add raw yeast (or dry), pour sugar and 2-3 tbsp. l. flour, mix. The dough should turn out like liquid fritters. I leave it for 15 minutes so that the yeast activates.

I mix sifted flour with softened butter.

Look how well our yeast has loosened. I pour the foam into a bowl with flour and butter, pour the remaining sugar, salt, vanilla, add oil, eggs, and I must add table cognac. I knead the dough.

I knead the dough for about 5-6 minutes, since good kneading is very important for a good rise of the dough. I cover the bowl with the dough and leave it in a warm place to rise. It suited me for about 1 hour. I pass once more and leave to approach. The second time I got the dough in 20 minutes.

Toppings:

On a plate, rub a piece of butter and sugar into crumbs.

The berry component of my filling today will be strawberries. It is better to use not very large berries. I dried the clean berries with a paper towel and now sprinkle a little starch on top so that the juice does not flow so much into the dough.

I knead the dough that has come together and put it in the form. I have a form measuring 25 by 25 cm. I lined the bottom of the form with baking paper. I distribute the dough according to the form.

Now, with a dough knife, I make deep diagonal cuts at a distance of 1,5-2 cm from each other. If you suddenly cut the dough all the way to the end, it's okay. First, I put cream-sugar crumb into these cuts. And then the strawberries tightly to each other. I sprinkle the remaining sugar crumbs on top of the cake.

I let the pie stand for 15-20 minutes. Then I put the cake in the oven heated to 180 degrees for about half an hour.

And here is such a delicious miracle cake turned out! I let the pie cool completely in the form, and then you can call everyone for tea.
