Good day!

Oh, how I missed the tastes of my childhood! I’ve remembered how many cakes, pastries and cakes we used to prepare with my sister as kids. But butter cream and biscuits were not frequent guests due to scarce products at that time – butter and eggs.

Now I rarely make sweets. First, I still try somehow to monitor my health and keep the weight. Secondly, our children do not like sweets, and everything that I cook has to be eaten by me and my husband. This contradicts with term number 1.

But sometimes I find a great desire to cook a dessert: with cream, biscuit and berries. Knowing in advance that the children will agree to try only a small piece of sponge cake. And even this is not necessary. In this case, hope only for girlfriends, who love sweets.

Today’s recipe is very simple and certainly not for those who are on a diet. But just like from childhood!
