![]() My girlfriend found this recipe and had me make it yesterday night even though I'm not a fan of prunes. It was quite good anyway. I think it would be better with raspberries or blackcurrants. ---------- Prune Cake ---------- Prune stew: 200 gram prunes (with seeds) 1 cup water 3 tbsp sugar Let prunes soak overnight in the water (or just add cooking time). Add the sugar and boil the mixture over low heat until done. Remove the seeds. Custard: 2 eggs 2 tbsp sugar 1/4 vanilla pod 1 cup whole milk 2 tsp corn starch Dissolve the starch in the milk. Cut the vanilla lengthwise and scrape out the the seeds. Pour milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla pods and seeds into a pot and bring to boil - keep it on 2 minutes and cool it. Spongy Layers: 135 gram sugar 4 eggs 110 gram Flour 2 tsp baking powder Whip eggs and sugar white and foamy. Mix Flour and baking powder and fold it into the eggs. Strain into two tart dishes or springform pans. Bake for 8 minutes at 420 F. Whip 1 cup of heavy cream into whipped cream. Assemble the cake with a spongy layer, a prune layer, a custard layer, a spongy layer, and finally whipped cream on top. |
