Ingredients

Step cooking

1. Pour a glass of sugar into a deep bowl, add 200 g of melted butter, after allowing it to cool slightly. The oil can be melted in a water bath or in a microwave.
   
2. Beat 2 chicken eggs and mix the ingredients thoroughly with a whisk or fork.
   
3. In a separate bowl, mix 3 cups flour with a teaspoon of baking powder, then gradually add to the liquid mixture.
   
4. Gradually mix all the ingredients, the dough is soft, plastic and does not stick to your hands at all.
   
5. Next, you need to divide the resulting mass into 2 unequal parts: put a little more than a quarter of the dough in a bag and put in the freezer for 30 minutes, and use the rest for the base of the pie.
   
6. Put the majority of the dough in a rectangular shape and evenly distribute it over the entire surface, slightly wrapping around the perimeter of the side (literally 1 cm).
   
7. Smudge 150-200 grams of any non-liquid jam over the entire base.
   
8. Then get a slightly hardened ball of dough from the freezer and grate it over the cake, sprinkling it evenly.
   
9. Put in an oven preheated to 200 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
   
10. The finished pie turned out to be rosy and tender. It is necessary to wait for the delicacy to cool completely, after which it can be cut into portions. For a beautiful serving, we recommend sprinkling with powdered sugar and, most importantly, put it on a festive plate. This is a great option for drinking tea with family or friends for a quick and tasty breakfast or snack.
