6. Let the dough chill for 5-10 minutes, then split into 9-10 equal parts. It depends on the diameter of the cake. I usually make 10 layers for a 20 cm round cake and 9 layers for a 24 cm one.

7. Roll each part of the dough in a thin (2 mm) layer between a silicon mat and parchment paper.
-
8. Use a fork to prick each layer thoroughly.

11. Roughtly chop the chocolate, place it in a heatproof bowl and melt it over a slowly simmering bain-marie until the temperature reaches approx. 45 C.

12. Beat the cold cream until firm peaks cling to the whisker.
-
13. Add about 1/3rd of the whipped cream to the hot chocolate.
-
14. Pour the mixture over the remaining cream and fold in gently with a spatula to evenly blend the ingredients.
-
15. Gently fold white chocolate mousse into the sour cream.
-
16. Chill the cream for 30 min In the fridge.
-
17. Meanwhile spread the pecan nuts on a baking sheet, add salt and rost for 10 min (160 ะก).
-
18. While the nuts are hot stir in butter.
-
19. When cool chop the nuts and set aside.
-
20. Place one honey dough layer on a plate, spread approx 2 tbs of the cream and place another honey dough layer on top.
-
21. Repeat until you use all the honey layers.
-
22. Cover the entire surface of the cake with the rest of the cream.
