Man Cake

For the man-cake, first melt the chocolate in a bain-marie for the cake base and allow to cool slightly.

Then mix with room-warm butter, powdered sugar, vanilla sugar and salt. Stir until foamy and gradually add the yolks. Beat the egg whites with the sugar until stiff and fold into the chocolate mixture, alternating with the flour. Bake at 190 °C for approx. 1 hour (test with chopsticks).

For the cream, mix curd cheese with yogurt, custard powder and cinnamon until creamy. Whip cream with cream stiffener and fold in. Finely crumble the Mannerschnitten and stir into the cream.

Cut the cooled cake in two. Spread the jam on the bottom and 1/3 of the cream on top. Do the same with the next cake layer, put the lid on and spread the remaining cream all over the cake. Decorate with chocolate chips.

Preparation Tip:

If you like, you can add vanilla sugar or 2-3 tablespoons of Nutella or other nut spread or even soft nougat to the cream for the Mannerschnittentorte.
