Servings: 16

500 g + some flour
50 g Sugar
1 package Vanilla sugar
1 package Dry yeast
7-10 Tbsp Salt
50 g + some + 2 tablespoons butter
150 ml Milk
2 Eggs (Gr. M)
300 ml Currant jam
60 g Currants
75 g Icing sugar
7-10 Tbsp Aluminium foil

Directions

1
For the yeast dough mix 500 g flour, 50 g sugar, vanilla sugar, yeast and 1⁄2 TL salt. Melt 50 g butter, add milk and warm up. Add with eggs to the flour mixture. Mix everything with the dough hooks of the mixer at least
2
Knead for 8 minutes to a smooth elastic dough. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until the dough has doubled.
3
Grease a box mould (approx. 1 3⁄4 l capacity; 30 cm long). Briefly knead the dough on some flour and roll out to a square (approx. 50 x 50 cm). Spread with jam. Cut into approx. 36 squares and first cut into 6 strips (each approx. 8 cm wide).
4
Cut them crosswise into 6 squares (each approx. 8 x 8 cm). Stack 5-6 dough squares on top of each other and place them vertically in the mould (or see tip). Repeat the process until all squares are in the mould.
5
Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
6
Preheat oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/circulating air: 150 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Spread 2 tablespoons of butter in flakes on the dough. Place the mould on a tray covered with aluminium foil.
7
Bake in a hot oven for 30-40 minutes. Cover with aluminium foil after about 20 minutes. Take out, let it rest in the form for about 30 minutes. Then carefully turn out and let it cool down.
8
Wash the currants, drain them and remove them from the panicles with a fork. Stir icing sugar with 1-2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Spread the icing and berries over the cake.
