Baking and Desserts • Russian
Description
I have a glass that holds 250 ml. You can add more or fewer eggs depending on their size. Brew some fragrant tea and enjoy these delightful pastries from childhood.
Ingredients
- Water 2 cups
- Margarine 5 oz
- Salt a pinch
- Wheat Flour 2 cups
- Chocolate eggs 7 pieces
- 10% cream 25 fl oz
- Vanilla salt a knife tip
- Powdered Sugar 4 tablespoons
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Heat water with salt in a saucepan, add margarine, and slowly heat — the liquid should not boil. Without removing the saucepan from the heat, add all the flour at once and stir until a dense lump forms, then return the saucepan to the heat. Stir the formed dough lump for another 2 minutes until it separates from the bottom and sides of the saucepan.
Step 2
Remove from heat, transfer the dough to a mixing bowl. Beat in one egg and mix until smooth. Gradually add the remaining eggs (you may use 3 to 5 eggs depending on their size). The dough should be uniform and glossy.
Step 3
Using a pastry bag with a star tip, pipe rings of dough onto parchment paper and bake the bases.
Step 4
Pour the chilled cream into a mixing bowl and whip. As soon as the cream begins to thicken, stop the mixer and gradually add the powdered sugar, one tablespoon at a time. Whip until fluffy.
Step 5
Cut the bases in half and fill with cream.
Step 6
Dust with powdered sugar on top. Place in the refrigerator for an hour or two.
