For the dough from which the cake is prepared, you will need:

  • 6 chicken eggs (the whites are subsequently separated from the yolks);
  • 200 g granulated sugar (you can add a little less);

  • 0.5 tsp. soda (quench it with vinegar).

For the cream used as cake filling, take:

To create an impregnation so that the biscuit has a pleasant taste, you need:

  • 1 full tbsp. l. any cognac;
  • 140 ml distilled water;
  • 1 tsp. granulated sugar;
  • 2 bananas (choose fruits without rot);
  • 40-50 g of cookies (preferably shortbread type).

How to make a “Box” cake at home?

Carefully break the eggs. Then separate the yolks from the whites. Pour 100 g of sugar into the bowl containing the first ones.

Beat them until you see that the volume of the mass has increased. Then move on to the whites, which should look like soft peaks. Add the remaining granulated sugar to them and turn into a stiff foam.

  • Take 1/3 of the whites and add to the yolks, stirring everything with a flat spatula.
  • Then add the sifted flour and slaked soda.
  • Place the remaining mass of proteins here.
  • Mix everything again.
  • Now find a non-stick baking pan (preferably a springform pan).
  • Move the dough there, which then place in the oven at 180 degrees.

The cake will be ready in 30 minutes. Take note of the time so you don’t forget about it, but in the meantime, get on with the cream. To do this, soften the butter and combine it with condensed milk. The cream is ready. Also make impregnation by boiling 150 m.l. water with 1 tsp. granulated sugar. Cool the liquid and pour a spoonful of cognac into it.

  • Remove the biscuit from the oven, cool, and then cut off the top with a sharp knife.
  • It will be the lid of the “box”.
  • Using a spoon, carefully scoop out the pulp from the remaining crust.
  • This will create the “box” itself.
  • Treat both parts of the biscuit with cognac impregnation.
  • Inside the box, grease everything with the prepared cream, leaving a little space.

Cut the banana into thin circles and place it on the bottom of the “box”.

  • Mix the biscuit pulp with the crumbled cookies.
  • Add another chopped banana and a little cream.
  • Mix the mass by placing it in the “box”.
  • Cover everything with a lid, and grease the sides and top with the remaining cream.

After studying this master class on making the “Box” cake, decorate the dessert as your imagination dictates.

For the dough we need flour, sugar, margarine, eggs, baking powder, cocoa, kefir. For the filling - cherries, sour cream, powdered sugar.

So, first beat the eggs with sugar, you will get a thick foam.


Melt the margarine and cool slightly.


Add cocoa (5 tbsp) to the mixture of eggs and sugar, stir, add flour and baking powder, and at the end add melted and cooled margarine and 4 tbsp. l. kefir


You will get a thick dough, which we transfer to a greased form. Bake in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for an hour. Be prepared to check with a wooden stick, and please keep in mind that all ovens are different and the time may vary. An hour is approximately, if the oven is convection, it can bake faster.


The top of my pie rose and cracked, it’s no big deal, everything will be fine in the end. Simply cut off the unnecessary protrusion and continue using it. (see photo at the end)


Do the same with the pie - carefully cut out the flesh, leaving the walls approximately 5 cm thick. I cut it into small pieces, then simply chopped this mass into squares with a knife.


Inside the box we will place the cut out pulp plus add cream to it. The cream can be anything. It can be boiled condensed milk whipped with butter, with the addition of nuts, raisins, candied fruits or marmalade. I cooked with sour cream and cherries. I whipped sour cream with sugar or powdered sugar (whichever is faster)), added frozen cherries (I didn’t defrost them first). And at the end I added the pulp cut out from the pie.


This is such an unsightly looking mass)) We put it in our “box”.


I compacted it tightly and covered it with a lid on top.
I have already cut off the top, so now it looks quite decent, there is no protruding piece.))


I used ready-made chocolate cream for coating the cake. Recently I have really fallen in love with this cream, it is easy to prepare and turns out delicious. You just need to pour the contents of the package into a cup, add 250 ml of cold milk, 3 tbsp. l. powdered sugar or sugar and beat for 2-3 minutes. Then add 50 grams to it. soft butter and beat for another 1-2 minutes. And that’s it, the cream is ready.

The cream turned out thick, I coated the cake generously, sparingly, both on top and on the sides, nothing drips, all the cream is in place.


Well, then we decorate as desired. I sprinkled it with chocolate and coconut shavings, put a couple of cherries (I left them on purpose) and completed the leaf with a pastry pencil.


The cross-section shows that inside is the same unsightly-looking, but tasty mass with cherries)). For the future, I realized that the pulp from the lid also needs to be cut out (I didn’t do that here), it turns out better. Well, when we fill the box with the mass of cherries, we don’t forget about the lid either. Or just make the slide higher, and when we cover it, level it with this very lid.


We all loved this cake so much, it turned out just huge, everyone ate it and praised it. And they also asked - how did I do it so that it’s so pink inside?)))

After the first cake came the second... Inside there are no longer cherries with sour cream, but a different filling. This is condensed milk with butter and nuts, plus candied fruits. The multi-colored pieces looked very cool when cut. Sorry, no photo... deleted it by accident...((


I also made mini desserts from the remains of the lid (the one that stuck out) and the remains of the cream. I crushed fruits and bread pulp into bowls, topped them with a couple of spoons of cream, sprinkled them with coconut and chocolate shavings and vo-a-la! There was also a bonus for the cake))

Hi all! Today I suggest you make a homemade cake box recipe with strawberries and sour cream - it turns out very tasty, beautiful and most importantly - fast! The advantages of this dessert are ease of preparation, minimum ingredients, lack of specific components and complex equipment.

Everything is extremely simple, and the result is impressive. This will be an excellent solution for absolutely everyone - those who are still learning to cook and for experienced cooks. The combination of strawberries and cream (in our case sour cream) will always be relevant. So, let's start cooking!

Ingredients:

Biscuit:

1. Wheat flour – 100 g;

2. Sugar – 100 g;

3. Starch – 80-100 g;

4. Chicken eggs – 6 pcs;

5. Baking powder – 05, – 1 tsp;

6. Vanillin - to taste.

Cream:

1. Sour cream (preferably high fat) – 1 kg;

2. Powdered sugar – 200 g;

3. Fresh ripe strawberries – 500-600 gr.

Also, some people add a thickener (10 g) to the cream, but I consider this unnecessary and am not a supporter of consciously adding artificial harmful products to my diet.

Cooking method:

1. First, let's prepare the sponge cake. To do this, separate the whites and yolks of 6 eggs.

2. Beat the whites with a mixer until strong and durable peaks form. Carefully and smoothly pour in granulated sugar in a small stream, whisk thoroughly until a shiny and fairly thick, dense mass is formed.

3. Add the yolks one at a time into the dough piece, simultaneously stirring the mixture and preventing the formation of lumps.

4. In another bowl, mix the sifted flour (this will make the dough more tasty, tender and airy, with a uniform texture) with starch and baking powder, gradually add it to the egg mixture.

Add a little vanilla and stir well with a spoon.

5. Now cover the bottom of the pan with parchment paper

6. Lay out all the dough and level it. We bake our biscuit at a temperature of 180 degrees until fully cooked.

An important nuance: try not to open the oven during the first 25-30 minutes. The finished sponge cake turns out airy and juicy; it is an excellent base for a variety of cakes, pastries and desserts with absolutely any ingredients.

7. Let the biscuit cool a little and cut it beautifully with a sharp knife (observing safety precautions) so as to remove the thin lid.

8. Using your hands or a spoon, extract the pulp, leaving a “bowl” with walls and a bottom of 1 centimeter.

9. It's time to make the cream. Beat sour cream with powdered sugar until completely dissolved. We coat the inside of the biscuit “basket” with this mixture (about 1/3), and lay strawberries cut in half on top, followed by a thin layer of cream and chopped crumb.

10. Coat it all with cream again, lay out the second part of the strawberry, add a little cream.

11. All that remains is to cover the cake with a lid, which we also cover with the rest of the sour cream, which should also be “disguised” as the sides of the dessert. Decorate with mint (optional), several berries and put in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours so that everything is thoroughly soaked.

12. That's it, our cake is ready, bon appetit!

13. Now you know how to make a “box” at home. It's very easy, isn't it? If desired, you can make original figures from mastic or sprinkle the product with chocolate chips to diversify the taste of the cake and decorate it.

You can try using frozen berries instead of fresh strawberries. You can replace it with raspberries, blueberries and other berries. Recently I experimented, and since it was winter, instead of strawberries I put ripe (which had begun to darken a little on the outside), very sweet bananas, and poured melted milk chocolate on top of the cake and sprinkled it with chopped roasted nuts.
