Preheat the oven to 180ºC. Divide the dough into 3 parts. Spread each portion of the dough thinly in the pan lined with baking paper. Bake each layer for about 8 mins.
Cool the cake completely and cut into 3 sections. This way you will get 9 rectangular pieces. Trim the sides of the cake evenly. ( Crumble the unwanted side of cake into fine pieces).
Spread sour cream between each layer of cake.
For the top of the cake, spread a thin layer of sour cream and Crumble the unwanted side of cake into fine pieces and sprinkle on top of it.
Set aside for 5 minutes and wrap the cake tightly in a large aluminium foil and store in fridge for a day so that the cream moistens the cake.
