How to cook
Beat soft butter with sugar and salt until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating after each addition.
Sift the flour with the baking powder and gradually add it to the mass. Divide the dough in half or into 2/3 to 1/3 parts. Add cocoa to one part and mix thoroughly.
Line a baking tin (Ø 22 cm) with parchment and grease with oil. Pour the light and dark batter separately and smooth.
Bake at 180 °C for 20-25 minutes. Leave to cool. If desired, cut each cake in half — you will end up with 3 or 4 layers.
For the cream, boil the milk with a pinch of salt. Gradually add semolina, stirring constantly, and cook until thick. Cover with cling film in contact, cool. Separately, beat the butter with the sugar and vanilla sugar until fluffy. Add the semolina base in parts, whisking constantly.
Add the lemon juice and mix until smooth. Assemble the cake in a ring or mold, alternating the sponge layers with the cream. Cover with cling film and chill for at least 4 hours.
For the glaze, combine sour cream, sugar, and cocoa, and bring to a simmer over low heat until the ingredients dissolve. Remove from the heat, add the butter, and mix until smooth. Pour the icing over the cake and leave it in the fridge for another 1 hour.
