Description

The first 5 ingredients are for the base, the next 6 are for the filling, and the last 2 are for the soufflé. The cake is called 'Angel's Tears' because after about 1.5 hours, amber-colored droplets appear on the soufflé.

Ingredients

Baking Powder - 1 teaspoon
Butter - 2.8 oz
Egg white - 1 piece
Cottage cheese - 17.6 oz
Sugar - 2 tablespoons
Whole egg - 3 pieces
Sour Cream - 3.5 oz
Semolina - 1 tablespoon
Vanilla salt - a pinch
Egg white - 3 pieces
Wheat Flour - 1 cup
Powdered Sugar - 3 tablespoons

Step by Step guide

Step 1

For the base, mix the flour with the baking powder and chop in the chilled butter.

Step 2

Beat the eggs with the sugar. Combine everything and knead the dough. Wrap the finished dough in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 3

For the filling, blend all the ingredients until smooth.

Step 4

For the soufflé, whip the egg whites into a stiff foam, gradually adding the powdered sugar. If the egg whites do not whip well, you will not see the 'tears'.

Step 5

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and spread it in a mold, forming a border. Top with the cottage cheese filling. Bake at 356°F for about 20–30 minutes. Then remove, top with the soufflé, and bake for another 10–15 minutes until golden.

Step 6

Turn off the oven, open the door, and leave the cake to cool in this state. After about 40 minutes, take it out and let it stand until completely cool.
