The cosmonaut shared a recipe for a "cosmic" cake

The "cosmic" cake is made from cookies, honey, nuts, condensed milk, cottage cheese and candied fruits.

"We have these cosmic cookies, they are soaked in honey or condensed milk and glued together. They form cakes, and then pour them with liquid cottage cheese with nuts," Artemyev told the Moscow city news agency.

According to the cosmonaut, it takes about 1.5–2 hours to prepare the cake, while there is enough food for the entire crew - for seven people.
