Learn how to make the perfect puff pastry for the legendary “Napoleon” cake

The tops are made of very fine and tender layers, and in combination with the cream they create a special and refined cake. Now you will know the charm of this extraordinary delicacy.

ingredients

– 3 cups of flour

– ¾ glass of ice water

– 250 g of butter

– 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar

– 1 or

– ½ teaspoon of salt

Method of preparation

1. Prepare all the ingredients. Put a glass of water in the freezer, the butter should be at room temperature. Sift the flour.

2. Cut the butter with a knife and put it in the flour, rub quickly with your hands to get crumbs, then break the egg, pour cold water and mix once more. Add the salt and vinegar and mix until you get a smooth dough. Divide the dough into two parts, then divide each part of the dough into 2 or 4 pieces – depending on the height and diameter of the tops you want to get.

3. Roll out each piece of dough and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 15 minutes. Let them cool, spread each top with cream and place them on top of each other.

4. Usually, I cut the cake in the shape of a circle, so that it is round, grate the leftovers and press the cake. The cake is very tasty and beautiful.
