    Pour 1 tablespoon lemon juice over the apricots. Wash the cherries, remove the stalks and stone them. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface until round (approx. 34 cm Ø). Line a greased springform pan (26 cm Ø) with it. Pull the dough up 3-4 cm at the edge, press firmly and chill. Mix quark, sour cream, 150 g sugar, vanillin sugar and remaining lemon juice with the whisks of the hand mixer. Stir in 3 eggs individually. Stir in semolina. Spread apricot halves on the shortcrust pastry. Carefully fold 2/3 of the cherries into the cheese mixture and place in the mould. Spread the remaining cherries on the surface. Bake the cake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for 40-50 minutes.
