Preparation procedure

  • Base for the honey dough In a bowl suitable for a bain-marie place the eggs, sugar, butter, baking soda, milk and honey. Heat in the water bath, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes together into a creamy consistency.
  • Working the dough Remove from the bath and gradually stir in the flour. On a floured surface knead the dough lightly and divide into 4 equal parts. Roll each into a thin rectangle the size of the baking tray.
  • Baking the layers Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, prick the layer all over with a fork and bake in an oven preheated to 180 °C for approximately 5–6 minutes until light golden. The layers brown quickly, watch them. Let cool completely.
  • Semolina cream Bring the milk to a boil, add the vanilla sugar, sugar and lemon zest. While whisking, add the semolina and cook into a smooth, thicker cream. Remove from the heat, drizzle with lemon juice to taste and let cool to room temperature.
  • Butter cream Whip the softened butter until fluffy, beat in the sour cream and lemon juice. The cream should be smooth and lightly fresh.
  • Layering Place the first honey layer on a serving tray and spread half of the semolina cream. Top with the second layer and spread the lemon butter cream. Place the third layer and spread the remaining semolina cream. Close with the fourth layer.
  • Resting and finishing Weigh down with a light board, cover with foil and leave in the fridge overnight to set and absorb moisture. Before serving dust the surface with powdered sugar and cut into slices with a sharp knife.

Servings: 12

Active time 60–75 minutes

Chilling ideally overnight

Total time 9–10 hours including setting

Tips and serving

  • The honey layers are fragile after baking; in the fridge they soften nicely and meld with the creams

  • Adjust the lemon in the creams according to the sweetness; the dessert can handle a pleasant fresh tartness

  • Cut only after chilling; the slices will be neat and clean

Conclusion

Albinita is exactly the type of dessert that can easily compete with a patisserie in taste and appearance. The preparation is surprisingly simple — just stick to the short baking time for the layers and give the dessert time in the fridge. The result is airy, moist and evenly sweet slices that will be snapped up at the family table.
