Bird Cherry Cake
I recommend purchasing ground bird cherry at a store to prepare this dessert. It has a unique taste and no equivalents; it is impossible to replace the main ingredient. These ingredients make 6-8 servings.

Pour half of the batter into a baking pan (26 cm in diameter) greased with vegetable oil. Level the surface. Place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 10–15 minutes. Check the cake layer with a toothpick (or match): if it comes out dry, it is ready. Bake two cake layers this way.

Make the cream by whipping sour cream with sugar until the grains are completely dissolved.
