Delicious Three-Layer Honey Cake Recipe

In a bowl, combine 200-230 grams of sugar, 3 tablespoons of honey, and 3 eggs. Whisk these ingredients well.

Next, melt 120 grams of unsalted butter and add it to the mix. Gradually incorporate 450-500 grams of all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons of baking soda. Stir until the dough is smooth.

Divide the dough visually into three equal parts. Grease three plates with butter to make it easier to extract the layers from the plates.

For the second part of the dough, add 1.5 teaspoons of cocoa powder, and for the third part, mix in 2 tablespoons of good quality cocoa powder. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4-5 hours to ensure it is completely chilled.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Roll out each dough piece and bake them for 5-7 minutes. You will make three layers from each dough, resulting in a total of nine layers.

In a bowl, mix 700 milliliters of milk, 180 grams of sugar, 3 tablespoons of flour, 2 egg yolks, and a little vanilla extract. Whisk well to avoid lumps.

Transfer the mixture to a saucepan over low heat. Stir continuously until it thickens, then remove from heat and let it cool.

Whip 250 grams of unsalted butter until light and fluffy. Gradually combine it with the cooled custard until they are fully blended.

Layer the cake by alternating between the different colored dough layers, as shown in the video. Add layers of custard in between each. Once assembled, cover the cake with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator overnight.
