– mascarpone – 500 g; – strawberries – 200 g; – flour – 120 g; – cream (33% fat) – 200 ml; – water – 100 ml; – eggs – 6 pieces; – jelly – 1 sachet; – gelatin – 25 g; – sugar – 250 g; – icing sugar – 100 g; – butter – 2 tablespoons; – strawberry liqueur – 1-2 tablespoons; – almonds, vanilla – to taste.
Beat the yolks of three eggs with vanilla and 100 g of sugar. Add flour to these ingredients and mix thoroughly.
If using a blender, it is best to set it to a low speed.
The whites of three eggs should be beaten separately with 50 g of sugar until smooth. They must be carefully poured into the yolks with flour, while stirring with a spatula. Next, you need to add pre-melted butter to the eggs.
Then you should prepare a dish for baking a biscuit. You can use a pretty heart shape to make the cake look like the photo in the cookbooks. But ordinary refractory cookware will do as well.

To prepare the cream, beat the yolks of the remaining three eggs with vanilla and powdered sugar. Next, add mascarpone cheese and 150 ml of cream to these ingredients. The ingredients must be mixed to get a homogeneous mass. Then pour 20 ml of boiled cold water over the gelatin and warm it up in the microwave. It must be carefully added to the cheese and whipped lightly. The whites from the remaining three eggs must be mixed with a pinch of salt and poured into the cream.
Put this mass in a thick layer on a biscuit and put the future cake in the refrigerator for about 50 minutes. After that, you need to decorate the dish with strawberry slices and pour jelly on top so that the berries do not crumble.
