Cake in water bath form / cooked cake

Time

Total preparation time: 1 hr. 30 min.

With us a cake bubbled on the stove, very gently, that's important. In the meantime, it was time to look at the TheFruitAndFlowerBasket pages and there we were by name yes close to the topic, because of Negerkuss and Gypsy schnitzel.

Mohr's shirt is the result of our kitchen and goes like this:


Ingredients and preparation

  1. Soak 3 buns in some milk, separate 3 eggs, beat very stiff with about 50 g of fine sugar.
  2. Mix 100 g of butter (no more) with 40 g of powdered sugar, then add the egg yolks and the well-expressed bread rolls in succession, as well as about 75 g of ground almonds and 50 g of crumbs. Mix everything to a smooth dough.
  3. Add 70 g of melted chocolate to the mixture while stirring vigorously; the couverture remains partially in the dough by solidifying in small chunks.
  4. The egg whites are lifted and then the dough is filled in the well-greased and spread with breadcrumbs form. The mold is firmly closed and then comes for about an hour in slightly boiling water. Conveniently, the water level should be as high as the filled dough.
  5. The cooled cake is then covered with a dark chocolate sauce and tastes really good the next day.

Information and tips

This recipe is from Grandma Anne's handwritten cookbook, which she had to present on the occasion of her examination as a Master House Wife. For this purpose, the recipes had to be collected from foreign housewives and then tried in their own kitchen.

What the examiners knew was also rated, but there were additional points only for previously unknown. And that was the testers melt on the tongue.

We take dark couverture, but when children eat, bright couverture is better. Easter bunnies and Christmas chocolates have been processed, but you should not be too luscious, otherwise the dough will be too heavy.


Vanilla friends can be active, bakers inside here with us, have sometimes mixed a packet of baking powder, but this is not provided in the original.

Anne has the recipe of an Austrian, but she did not want to call it a pastry. (By the way, our Anne is now 96 years old).

Another tip from me, a biscuit dough can also be cooked well and a yeast dough with many ingredients such as almonds, raisins, Sukkade - candied fruit - so to everyone's taste, can also cook. Gar tasting as in baking. (And now comes the foot of the horse: By handling in the vicinity of the boiling water utmost caution is advised, otherwise possibly the first cooking cake will be the last).

All the Penniannes, especially the cooks, who have now come to philosophizing and talk about cakes from the frying pan - no luck, do not want pancakes, read correctly, about cakes from the pan.
