Grandpa's Moustaches

No, You didn't read it wrong. And yes, you are on a right page! The name of this dessert is little strange, but the dessert is fantastic: it looks great and tastes fantastic :)




Don't worry, it's not some witch potion where you need to cut off your grandpa's mustaches. The cake is named like this, because when you slice up the cake, you get pieces that looks like mustaches :) Interesting, right? :)


You don't believe it? Look for yourself!






Dough 


350 g of flour 
150 g margarine or butter 
7 tablespoons of milk 
1 tablespoons of sugar 
4 egg yolks 
4 teaspoons baking powder 
2 tablespoons of sour cream

Place the flour and baking powder onto a flat work surface and shape it into a well. Pour the milk, sour cream, egg yolks,  margarine or butter, sugar and a pinch of salt into the center of the well and work into a ball of dough. Use a rolling pin to flatten the dough into a square block. You will get 3 blocks out of this recipe. 

 


Filling 


4 egg whites
200 g ground walnuts
vanilla sugar
1 - 2 tablespoons of cocoa 
150 g sugar

With electric mixer beat egg whites, add sugar and vanilla sugar and continue mixing until egg whites are firm enough and all sugar is dissolved. Then add ground walnuts and cocoa, and carefully mix it with spoon.

Now you will need:
some jam 
some ground walnuts for sprinkling
some cocoa and a little bit of cinnamon


Spread jam over the roll out dough leaving the middle of dough empty. Sprinkle ground walnuts, cocoa and cinnamon over the spread jam ,



and now roll the dough on both side (left and right) equally, so that you leave a little empty space in a middle. 



Put the dough into a pan. Fill the empty space with filling and put it in a preheated oven.



Bake until lightly golden. Take out of the oven.


plus
50 g  milk chocolate 
A little icing sugar




When the cake cools, sprinkle sides with icing sugar (white whiskers ;) ) and in the middle spread the melted milk chocolate.

Izmiksati bjelanjke s šećerom dok ne dobijete čvrsti snijeg, Umiješajte orahe i kakao. S tim filom popuniti sredinu kolača.

Staviti peći na 200 stupnjave i peći dok ne dobije lagano smećkast. Izvaditi. Posuti kolač a strane šećerom u prahu, a sredinu premazati s rastopljenih 50 g mliječne čokolade.

Pri rezanju dobijete kekse koji nalikuju čičinim brkovima =)
