To make the best out of the holiday, I was experimenting around with a new cake recipe and... ... Well, :? let's put it this way, it was experimental and it did not turn out as I thought. :P Since the cake is (was destined to be, more later) topped with a cherry jelly cover, i thought naming it "Red hot ridin' hood cake", after the old Tex Avery Cartoon: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8039477657790445932 ![]() The ingredients were the usual bag of goodies, plus cherries and a jelly icing: ![]() First, I made a dough from flour, margarine, eggs, sugar and baking powder: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Half of the dough was spread in a spring form, the other half was enriched with two tablespoons of Nutella and added on top: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Now drain the cherries and add them on top (keep ze juice): ![]() ![]() ![]() Off in the oven with it (30 minutes at 180 degrees celsius): ![]() ![]() ![]() First OOPSy: dough rose too much:( ![]() Let it cool down for 60-90 minutes minimum. ![]() As the dough got too high, I had to make a second ring from baking paper around the cake to keep the toppings in place: ![]() prepare the topping from curd, whipped cream and vanilla sugar, then spread it on the cake and let it chill for 1-2 hours: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() When the cake is chilled, prepare the jelly glaze: ![]() OOOPSy No.2: phonecalls while making the jelly should be avoided, as it cools down really fast and can't be spread evenly :( ![]() ![]() Well, one could call it the "Mikhail Gorbatchev of jelly toppings" ;) Let it rest chilled over night. Next morning (aka today): ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But the cake is really tasty if you don't mind the looks: ![]() Enjoy!

With not that much possibilities to use German my native language actually gets kinda rusty. How comes you write Chinese? The wonders of Babelfish(*) or is there more behind? Cheers, Markus (*) http://babelfish.altavista.com/ |
