  • 1 glass jar (720 ml/ portion weighed 460 g) Morello cherries
  • 30 g Cornstarch
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Sugar
  • 7-10 Tbsp grated rind of 1 untreated lemon

Directions

  1. 1

    Mix quark, sugar, milk, oil and salt. Mix flour and baking powder and stir half into the quark mixture. Knead in the remaining flour. Cover the dough and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Drain the cherries and collect the juice.

  2. 2

    Stir five tablespoons of juice and starch until smooth. Bring the rest of the juice, sugar and lemon zest to the boil. Add cornflour while stirring, bring to the boil again briefly, fold in cherries and allow to cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Mix the marzipan and egg whites, except for a teaspoon for spreading, with the whisks of the hand mixer until smooth. Roll out 2/3 of the dough into a rectangle (approx. 50 cm x 25 cm) on a floured work surface.

  4. 4

    Place the marzipan in the middle of the rectangle and spread. Leave a four centimetre wide edge on each of the long sides. Spread the compote over the marzipan. Fold the long sides over the filling.

  5. 5

    Roll out the rest of the dough on a floured work surface until thin along the length of the strip. Use a grid cutter to roll over the dough lengthwise and pull apart to form a grid. Spread the folded edges of the dough with the remaining egg white.

  6. 6

    Place a grid over the cherry filling and press on the edges. Whisk the egg yolk and cream and spread the cake with it. Bake in the preheated oven (electric: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) for 35-45 minutes.

  7. 7

    Let it cool down on a cake rack and dust with icing sugar. Makes twelve pieces.
