The famous Vasina cake straight from my mother's notebook. I remember when I was a kid this cake was a hit among the housewives, and I was nothing special. I needed to grow up to understand why it was so special and beautiful and considered one of the best cakes in this area. This cake was made for Christmas and you can prepare it for the upcoming feast of St.Vasilij the great.
Ingredients:
Biscuit
For biscuit
Split the biscuit into 2 strips, take one stripe, sprinkle with 1/4 orange juice and apply half-filling. Place the second layer and repeat the procedure.
Apply the egg white topping
Beat the whites well and boil the sugar with water for about 10 minutes. The prepared syrup is added drop by drop to the egg whites and continued to mix until the whole syrup is used. Apply the white mixture on top of the cake.
The cake is the most delicious to eat the next day.
