The resulting mixture is put on a water bath. Stir until liquid consistency is formed. Add the soda in the right amount. Stir the whisk until the foam appears
2. We remove the egg-and-oil mass from the water bath. We combine these ingredients with flour. Manually mix the dough. Then divide it into 6 parts. Each piece of dough is sprinkled with flour, rolled into a thin pancake. There is an important point. We need to leave some dough, from which then we'll make a crumb.
3. Warm up the oven (220 ° C). We cover the surface of the baking sheet with parchment. We lay out on it "pancakes" from the dough. Time for baking cakes - 5-6 minutes.

It is better to put it in different plates. In one part of the cream we put cocoa powder, mix.
5. Ready cake is placed on a flat dish. While he has not cooled down yet, we thoroughly cover it with chocolate cream. Sprinkle with ground peanuts. We put the second cake on top. Gently press it. We smeared with white cream. Sprinkle with raisins. So we collect the whole cake. Be sure to smear cream on the sides.
6. So, we have got a wonderful dessert called "Kutuzov". The cake is decorated with a walnut. Also sprinkled with crumbs on top. Where can I get it? Just from the remaining dough bake a small cake until the roasted crust. We cool it, and then we let the graters run through the small nozzle. There you are, baby. We distribute it along the sides and top layer.
