Quark cream cake with sour cherry groats

Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   Separate eggs. Beat the egg whites until stiff, then add 70 g sugar. Stir in egg yolks. Mix flour, baking powder and starch and fold into the egg mixture. Grease a springform pan (26 cm Ø), fill in sponge cake mixture and smooth it down. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for 15-20 minutes. Take out and after about 10 minutes carefully remove from the edge. Soak gelatine in cold water.

2. 2

   Wash lemon and grate dry. Grate the peel thinly and squeeze the lemon. Mix quark, 100 g sugar, vanillin sugar, lemon peel and juice. Squeeze the gelatine and dissolve. Mix 3 tablespoons of quark cream and gelatine, then stir into the remaining quark cream. Whip cream until stiff and fold in. Place a cake ring around the sponge cake. Spread the cream on the sponge cake and refrigerate for about 45 minutes (the cream should then be relatively firm at the edges, still soft like sour cream in the middle). In the meantime, roast the flaked almonds in a pan without fat until golden brown, take them out and let them cool down. Put the cherries in a sieve and let them drain. Bring 440 ml water to the boil. Mix red fruit jelly powder and 75 g sugar. Stir in 6 tablespoons of water bit by bit. Stir the mixed powder into the water and bring to the boil while stirring. Add cherries to the groats and mix well. Leave to cool for 8-10 minutes.

Add cherries to the groats and mix well. Leave to cool for 8-10 minutes. Spoon the cherry groats onto the quark cream, allowing a few cherries to sink slightly into the cream. If the cherries sink in completely, the cake must be cooled down again. Chill the cake for 2-3 hours, then carefully remove from the edge. Warm the honey slightly. Coat the cake edge with honey. Spread almond flakes on the edge of the cake and press them on. Dust the cake edge with icing sugar. Cut the cake into 12 pieces
