Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 1 glass (720 ml; drained weight: 460 g) Morello cherries
  • 1/4 l Milk
  • 300 g Sugar
  • 5 Eggs (weight category 2)
  • 1 Egg yolk (weight class 2)
  • 7-10 Tbsp scraped pulp from 1 vanilla pod
  • 300 g Butter or margarine
  • 400 g Flour
  • 2 TEASPOONS Baking Powder
  • 7-10 Tbsp Fat and breadcrumbs
  • 7-10 Tbsp Form
  • 2 packages (150 g each) white couverture
  • 1 package (150 g) Dark chocolate coating

Directions

  1. 1

    Drain the cherries. Heat milk for the caramel milk. Slowly melt 50 g sugar over medium heat until it has a light brown colour. Add the milk while stirring and bring to the boil once.

  2. 2

    Mix 2 eggs, egg yolks, 50 g sugar and vanilla pulp. Add to the caramel milk and stir at low heat until a slightly thick-creamy consistency is obtained. Do not let it boil! Remove from the heat and place in a cold water bath.

  3. 3

    Cream fat and remaining sugar, then gradually add the remaining eggs. Mix flour and baking powder and stir into the egg-fat mixture with the caramel milk. Fold in the cherries.

  4. 4

    Grease a box mould (approx. 30 cm long, 2 litres capacity) and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Fill in the dough and smooth it down. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175- 200 ° C / gas: level 2 - 3) for 60-70 minutes.

  5. 5

    Cover in between. Leave the finished cake to rest in the mould for 15-20 minutes, then turn out onto a cake rack and allow to cool completely. For the glaze, dissolve the white and dark chocolate coating separately in a water bath.

  6. 6

    Cover the cooled cake with the white chocolate coating. Then pour the dark chocolate coating in strips over the cake and pull it through with a fork like a snake. Results in 16 - 18 slices.
