You can surprise your loved ones by preparing a Napoleon cake quickly and in a lazy way that eliminates the annoying kneading of thin crusts.

For the base of the cake you will need half a kilo of ready-made puff pastry. For the cream you need half a liter of fresh milk, seven eggs, two hundred grams of powdered sugar, three hundred grams of butter, one tablespoon of cognac, two packets of vanilla.

Thaw the dough without unpacking it. Then roll it into crusts no thicker than four millimeters. Bake them at 180 degrees until golden.

Now you need to prepare the cream. Beat the eggs very well and pour the milk in a thin stream, constantly beating the mixture to make it homogeneous.

Boil in a water bath over low heat, stirring constantly so that the cream does not burn and does not become lumps. As soon as the cream thickens, remove it from the heat.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar so that it does not catch a crust while it cools. Beat the butter until it is almost white in color. Add the vanilla to the powdered sugar.

Add the powdered sugar with the vanilla to the butter and continue to beat until it is completely white in color. Add the butter and cognac to the cooled cream.

The cream is ready. Spread the finished crusts with it, smearing the last crust with cream, and sprinkle on it one of the crusts broken into large crumbs.

Put the cake in the refrigerator for a few hours, and it is best to stand all night to make it even tastier. Cut the cake into triangles, sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.
