Instruction manual
1
Defrost the finished dough and roll it into thin layers. Then divide into 16 identical strips. Remove the berries from the jar and drop them onto a sieve or colander to stack the juice. Lay the berries one after the other in the middle of each strip of dough.
2
Pinch the edges on top, as is usually done with pies. Leave free holes on the sides. The result should be 15 tubes with a berry as a filling, and the last slice will go to sprinkle.
3
Lay the tubes on a baking sheet so that they do not touch each other. Preheat the oven to 200 oC and bake until golden brown. After cool the product.
4
Beat the condensed milk along with vanilla and butter until an elastic, uniform state. Lay out the tubules in the form of a hut, in layers. Grease each with cream and sprinkle with ground nuts.
5
Sprinkle crumbs on top of a specially baked piece of dough. Place the monastery hut cake in the refrigerator for 12 hours to soak. And then serve it along with hot tea.
Useful advice
