  1. 1

    Roughly chop the chocolate coating. Heat 250 g cream, pour into a mixing bowl. Pour the chocolate coating into the cream and melt it while stirring.

    Add egg yolks one after the other and fold in. Mix flour, starch and baking powder, sieve onto the egg foam and fold in. Line the bottom of a springform pan (26 cm Ø) with baking paper. Add the sponge mixture and smooth it down. Bake in the preheated oven, 2nd shelf from below (electric oven: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for 35-40 minutes. Let the sponge cake cool down in the tin on a cake rack. Remove the sponge cake from the tin and cut horizontally so that the lower base is about 1/3 and the upper base about 2/3 of the height. Crumble the thicker base with your fingers. Sprinkle the base and crumbs with 6 tbsp. rum each. Whip 500 g cream until stiff and put aside just under half for spreading.
