  1. 1

    Roughly chop the Amarettini. Cream fat, 100 g sugar and salt. Separate the eggs. Stir in egg yolks one after the other.

Fold the beaten egg whites into the dough in two portions. Fold in Amarettini

    Put the dough into a greased springform pan (20 cm Ø) sprinkled with flour and smooth it down. Bake in a preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: see manufacturer) for approx. 1 hour, cover with aluminium foil after approx. 35 minutes. Remove and let cool on a cake rack for at least 2 hours. Wash and clean the strawberries and cut them in half or quarters depending on size

    Soak gelatine in cold water. Mix mascarpone and 50 g sugar. Bring 25 ml milk to the boil and dissolve coffee powder in it. Squeeze the gelatine, dissolve in the coffee milk and stir in the almond liqueur. Whip cream until stiff. Stir a little cream into the coffee milk, then stir everything into the rest of the cream. Carefully fold in the cream

    Remove the base from the mould, cut the base twice horizontally. First spread 1/3 of the cream, then half of the strawberries on the bottom cake layer. Cover with the 2nd base and repeat the process. Cover with the third base, press down lightly and spread the rest of the cream loosely on top. Chill the cake for about 1 hour.
