Directions

1. Let's start with the dough. The dough can be kneaded with a whisk, mixer or in a food processor. Beat two eggs until a good stable foam. Add sugar and vanilla. Whisk until sugar dissolves. You should get a light fluffy mass.
2. We send soda, baking powder and a pinch of salt. Sift in the flour and cocoa.
3. Add soft butter.
4. Stir, gradually increasing the speed, until smooth.
5. If the dough is thick, add 2 tbsp. spoons of sour cream. If the consistency of the dough is like thick sour cream, then add only 0.5-1 tbsp. a spoonful of sour cream for taste.
6. We mix. In total, 926 g of dough turned out.
7. Cover the bottom of a 20 cm diameter mold with parchment or grease with oil. We send half of the test there. The oven by this time should already be preheated to 180 degrees.
8. Bake for 20-30 minutes until done. Readiness is checked with a wooden stick. Separate the edges of the cake from the mold with a knife. We turn the cake over onto a wooden board. We bake the second cake in the same way.
9. We cut each cake into two parts.
10. Pour the semolina into a saucepan with a thick bottom or into a saucepan.
11. We add milk there. We put to cook, the mass should turn out thick.
12. Take one large lemon or two small ones. Cut into semicircles, removing the bones.
13. We send lemons to a blender, add sugar, grind.
14. The manga is ready.
15. While semolina is cooling, beat the butter. Add the cooled semolina to the oil. Beat until maximum uniformity.
16. Mix with crushed lemons.
17. The cream is ready.
18. We collect the cake, spreading all the cakes, except for the top one, with cream. We put the cake in the refrigerator for 4 hours, but I usually clean it at night.
19. We send cocoa to a saucepan with a thick bottom or a saucepan. There we add sugar, a piece of butter and sour cream.
20. Turn on the fire, cook for 5-7 minutes.
21. When the glaze has cooled slightly, apply it on the cake.
