This recipe is not only a quick dessert but also an excellent way to bring a touch of joy to your table. Here’s how you can prepare it, step by step! Preparation time: 30 minutes Baking time: 50 minutes Total time: 1 hour and 20 minutes Number of servings: 12 Ingredients For the dough: - 250 g butter (or margarine, depending on your preference) - 200 g sugar - 4 eggs - 250 g flour - 1 packet baking powder For the filling: - 1 jar (800 g) canned cherries (or fresh, if you have them) - 750 ml milk - 2 packets Dr. Oetker pudding (or any other preferred brand) - 100 g sugar (for pudding) - 600 g sour cream For decoration: - 2 packets red Tort-Gelee Dr. Oetker - 20 g sugar - 500 ml cherry syrup Step by step: Preparing the cake 1. Preparing the dough Start by preheating the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. This will ensure even baking of your cake. In a large bowl, mix the flour with the baking powder. This step is essential for getting a fluffy cake, so don’t skip it! 2. Beat the butter In another bowl, beat the butter (or margarine) with a mixer until creamy and airy. Gradually add the sugar, continuing to mix. This mixture will bring a delicious sweetness to your cake. 3. Add the eggs Incorporate the eggs one by one to ensure good homogenization. Add the flour mixture in two stages, continuing to mix constantly. The dough should be smooth and uniform. 4. Bake the dough Pour the dough into a baking tray (30x40 cm), leveling it well with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until golden and passes the toothpick test (if the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is ready). 5. Add the cherries After the dough has cooled slightly, drain the cherries well, then distribute them evenly over the surface of the cake. They will add a note of acidity and a perfect contrast to the sweetness of the dough. 6. Prepare the pudding In a saucepan, prepare the pudding according to the package instructions, using 750 ml of milk and 100 g of sugar. Once the pudding is boiled and has a creamy consistency, remove it from the heat and add the sour cream. Mix well to obtain a smooth and homogeneous cream. 7. Spread the cream Pour the pudding cream over the cherries in the tray, leveling it well with a spatula. This will form a delicious and rich layer that will perfectly complement the flavor of the cake. 8. Finalize the baking Put the tray back in the hot oven and bake for another 20 minutes. At the end, turn off the oven and let the cake sit for 10 minutes with the door slightly open. This trick helps the cake not to deform. 9. Prepare the Tort-Gelee Prepare the Tort-Gelee according to the package instructions, using the cherry syrup and sugar. This will add a shiny glaze and keep the cherries in place. 10. Final assembly Once the Tort-Gelee is ready, pour it over the pudding cream. Let the cake cool completely, then carefully remove it from the baking paper. Useful tip If you want to add a touch of extra flavor, you can add a few drops of vanilla essence to the pudding or replace the cherries with other seasonal fruits, such as cherries or peaches.
