1. Grate the butter, add it to the sifted flour.

2. Combine the soda quenched in vinegar with sour cream and add the mixture to the flour.

3. Knead the dough quickly, divide it in two (2/3 and 1/3).

4. Put the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

5. Pass the lemon through a meat grinder, then add sugar.

6. Roll out most of the dough and place in a baking dish, forming the sides.

7. Sprinkle with starch, then add the filling. Roll out the second layer of dough and cover the cake with it.

8. Bake lemongrass in a preheated oven at 180 ° C for 30-40 minutes.

  1. Start by making a lemon sponge cake for your cake. Remove the oil from the refrigerator in advance and leave it warm for 15 minutes to soften. Sift the flour into a separate bowl with baking powder. Remove the zest from the lemon and grate it on a fine grater.
  2. Then add sugar to the butter and beat with a mixer until a fluffy creamy mass is formed (2-3 minutes). Preheat the oven to 180 / 1200С, cover the baking dish parchment paper... If you have two or three of the same forms, you can bake 2 or 3 biscuits at the same time (in total, you need three for the cake).

  5. Bake the second biscuit until cooked in the same way as the first. Take it out and leave to cool too. Use the remaining dough to make a third lemon pie crust. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  6. In the meantime, prepare lemon cream for the cake. Remove the zest from the lemon and grate it on a fine grater. Squeeze out all the juice from the pulp and strain it through a sieve to remove seeds and pieces of pulp.
  7. Beat the eggs into a bowl and pour in the lemon juice. Beat for a couple of minutes until fluffy. Then gradually add sugar and continue beating until smooth. Put lemon cream on water bath, add zest.
  8. While stirring, heat the mass until thickened. Cut the butter into small pieces and add to the cream, mix well. Prepare the cream until all ingredients are completely dissolved and thickened. Remove the bowl from the water bath and leave to cool.
  9. Put in a saucepan apricot jam, pour in water and put on fire. Boil the glaze for 5 minutes at a low boil, stirring constantly. As soon as the mass begins to stretch a little and thickens, remove the pan from the heat.
  10. Put a lemon biscuit on the bottom of a split form, cover it with butter cream. Place the second biscuit and brush it with cream. Cover the cake with the last lemon biscuit, grease its surface with cream (you can leave a little to cover the sides).

Be sure to check the consistency of the protein mass - tilt and gradually turn the bowl over. The squirrels should hold firmly in place, not sliding down the sides of the bowl at all.
  2. In a separate container, beat the yolks with the remnants of granulated sugar, add vanilla sugar for flavor. We work with a mixer until a smooth, thickened mass of light yellow color is obtained.
  3. Introduce the yolk mass to the lush proteins in parts (in 3-4 passes), each time gently kneading strictly in one direction from bottom to top.
  4. Combine flour with starch and baking powder. After sifting, add in small portions to egg mixture... We continue to gently mix the components from bottom to top, do not allow the fluffy mass to settle!
  5. Homogeneous biscuit dough put in a baking dish with a diameter of 22 cm, level the surface. For convenience, you can preliminarily lay a sheet of parchment paper along the bottom of the container.

  11. Beat the softened butter until fluffy.
  12. Be sure to cool the custard with lemon zest completely. Then add portions to the oil, continuing to work with a mixer.

Distribute clean and dry raspberries on top. Then we repeat the steps - we put the next cake, pour with impregnation, apply lemon cream, place the berries.
