Stores amaze with an abundance of sweets and confectionery, but often the price is quite rather high, and you also want to pamper your pets with something unusual. The ideal solution would be homemade cakes, which do not take much time and help save the family budget.

Homemade Raphaelki
You will need:
- coconut flakes - 200-300 g;
- condensed milk with sugar -1 / 2-1 banks;
- nuts (any suitable: peanuts, almonds, hazelnuts).
Pour coconut flakes into a bowl, gradually pouring condensed milk. Knead a rather thick mass. We make small cakes out of it, put a nut in the center of each. Roll up neat balls, put on a flat dish. Pour the remaining shavings into a clean plate and roll each ball in it. Ready Raffaello placed for 30 minutes in the refrigerator, after which they can be served.
Cake "Pine cone"
In terms of composition and method of preparation, this sweetness is very similar to the Potato cake, but having slightly changed the appearance, we get a new treat. Any pastry remaining in the house is suitable for this cake: crackers, cakes, biscuits, gingerbread cookies.
You will need:
- butter - 200 g;
- cookies - 0.5 kg;
- milk (can be replaced with water) - 70 g;
- cocoa (not instant) - 2 tbsp;
- sugar - 2 tbsp.
We leave the oil for a couple of hours at room temperature to make it soft. While it is melting, prepare the syrup: add sugar and cocoa powder to milk (water), mix thoroughly and bring to a boil, slightly cool. Grind cookies (crackers, gingerbread cookies, muffins, etc.) in a blender (on a grater or meat grinder) and mix with melted butter until smooth, add syrup. From the resulting mass we form cones and send them to the freezer for 30 minutes, then we make notches with scissors with sharp edges, as if slightly cutting the cake.
Cake "Strawberries"
This is not just tasty, but also a very unusual cake that will delight kids and adults.
You will need:
- wafers 200 g;
- juice from boiled beets - 2-3 tbsp.;
- lemon juice - 2 tsp;
- butter - 1 tsp with a slide;
- milk - 50 g;
- sugar - 1 tbsp.
Squeeze the juice from the beetroot, mix it with lemon. Place the butter in a saucepan and heat until completely melted, send the milk for 20-30 seconds in the microwave. Grind the waffles with a meat grinder (in a blender) and mix them with melted butter and milk. From the resulting mass, we roll the cones, similar in shape to strawberries, dip them in a mixture of beetroot and lemon juice. We spread it on a napkin so that the excess juice is stacked, sprinkle with sugar (not plentiful), and send it to the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes. We shift to a clean plate and can be served.
