Beat all the eggs in a wide bowl at once, add sugar and whisk.
It will be much better if you take sugarpowder. It can be done at home. You just grind ordinary white sugar in a coffee grinder or in a blender. This will help make the whipped mass more uniform and plastic. From cakes later it will be easier to form a cake "Turtle". The recipe can contain a different amount of flour, but first take a half cup. In the future, you will understand, a lot or a little, in the density of the cakes. In the egg-sugar mass, add the flour, sifting directly into the bowl with the baking powder. Beat again. The dough is rather thin, slightly thicker than pancake. You can bake cakes in forms, or you can simply pour a ladle on a baking tray. Observe the accuracy, and the dough will spread symmetrical round pancakes. They should be small. You need to bake on two baking trays. In order for small cakes to be cooked well, it will be enough for five or seven minutes. If your oven is very powerful, then you have to control so that the dough does not burn. The cream should be prepared by stretching the melted (but not melted!) Butter with a spoon with sugar and sour cream.
If you add green food color, thenit will be possible to decorate the cake very brightly and in an original way, to build a real green turtle. This will delight the children. It can be done differently: first mix sugar and sour cream, then drive in oil. Proceed to assembly: refrigerated cakes put in the form of an oval, water and cover with cream. Half the oil-sour mixture leave for decoration. From several cakes make a muzzle, paws and a tail of a turtle. Top with green cream. Let it cool in the refrigerator for one night. When the cake has solidified, cover the frosting, prepared from these ingredients in a water bath. Apply it to the upper cake with the cooled cream neatly, simulating the tortoise shell pattern. Can be used to decorate kiwi. In this case, you do not need to add a green dye to the cream, and you will have a completely natural "Turtle" cake. The recipe should be adjusted taking into account the addition of pieces of fruit: take a little less cream. Lay layers of flat pieces of sliced kiwi and lay out the tortoise shell from above.</ p>
