Ingredients
Directions
Dough :500grams flour200grams butter (or margarine or shortening)1 cup milk25grams fresh yeast1-5tablespoons sugarpinch of salt2 eggs (original recipe says another egg yolk)Filling:fruit jam (I tend to use apricot, about two cups)ground walnut (to taste, approx one cup)+1 egg white to brush layers
Combine all the ingredients for the dough and let it rise at a warm place. Knead again, divide into 3 balls(or more), let them rise again. Roll out one, place on a big baking tray. Brush with egg white to prevent the dough getting soaked. Spread jam on the dough, then ground walnut. Repeat with the next two layers. Brush the top layer with beaten egg. Bake at medium heat for approx 30-40minutes.
Melt dark chocolate with a couple spoonfuls of milk or cream and cover the cake.
You can use any other jam you like, my faves are apricot or plum(best if a little sour). Alternatively you can experiment with different amounts of walnut or substitute other nuts.
Serving Size: 2x5 cm pieces (around 35 g each, approx 20 pieces)
Number of Servings: 20
