  • 250 g Sugar
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 4 Eggs (size M)
  • 200 g Flour
  • 75 g Cornstarch
  • 1/2 package Baking Powder
  • 40 g Cocoa powder, weakly deoiled
  • 1/2 package Pudding powder "Vanilla Flavor"
  • 1/4 l Milk
  • 1 package Vanillin sugar

Directions

  1. 1

    Beat 200 g fat, 175 g sugar and salt until foamy. Stir in eggs bit by bit. Mix flour, cornstarch, baking powder and cocoa and stir into the egg mixture. Pour the dough into a greased box form (26 cm long).

  2. 2

    Bake in the preheated oven (electric: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) for 45-50 minutes. Let them cool down. In the meantime mix pudding powder and 4 tablespoons of milk, bring the rest of the milk to the boil. Stir in the pudding powder and bring to the boil.

  3. 3

    Sprinkle with vanillin sugar and leave to cool. Turn the cake out of the tin, cut the surface straight. Cut an approx. 4 cm deep wedge out of the cake lengthwise, put the wedge aside. Beat the remaining fat and sugar until frothy.

  4. 4

    Stir in the pudding bit by bit. Fill the cake with cream and place the wedge on top with the flat side down. Put it in a cold place. Meanwhile melt the couverture in a bain-marie, take it out, let it semi-solidify and melt it again.

  5. 5

    Cover the cake with it. As soon as the couverture is half firm, decorate with candied cherries, almond halves and walnut halves. Makes about 20 pieces.
