Honey pastries with cocoa cream and nuts

Ingredients

Honey - 11.6 oz

Butter - 10.6 oz

Activated Baking Soda - ½ teaspoon

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Chop the flour with 100 grams of butter, add the egg, baking soda, 0.3 cups of honey, 0.5 cups of sugar, and knead a soft dough. Divide it into two equal parts and bake two flatbreads, greasing the pan with butter. Cover the baked flatbreads with a towel to prevent them from drying out.

Step 2

To prepare the cream, combine the remaining sugar with 0.6 cups of honey and 200 grams of butter, and cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until the butter and sugar dissolve. Without removing from heat, add cocoa and chopped nuts, bring to a boil, and cook for another 5 minutes.

Step 3

Place the warm layers on a board, spread with hot cream, and immediately cut into square pastries with a sharp knife, dipping the knife in cold water. Do not separate the pastries until they cool.
