When the sky breathes in autumn, baking the Nut Seduction Pie, the best dessert of autumn 2021
Today I want to tell you how my favorite cake with jam and nuts is made. This dessert my husband gently calls "Nut Seduction" because he can not eat nuts, but the pastry is so tasty that it is impossible to ignore a piece of cake. I'm making this cake with walnuts and apricot jam. And I put a delicate layer of custard on top.
The cake with jam Testo turns soft, prepared like a biscuit. Sometimes it is difficult to resist and I add dried fruits to the dough: dried apricots, prunes or just a handful of raisins. Despite the fact that the cake consists of three layers, cooking does not take much time.
Test ingredients
Cream ingredients
Preparation
If desired, you can make a chocolate icing and pour it on top of the cake, so that it was just festive. I assure you, this pie exceeds all expectations. I love cooking it in the autumn. When it's cold and chilly outside, you want to make yourself some tea, don't you?
