Instructions

Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff. Beat the egg yolks with sugar until fluffy. Stir in poppy seeds, sift the flour, potato starch and baking powder. Place the egg whites on top and stir gently with a spatula. Pour the batter into two 20 cm springforms lined with baking paper and bake for 20 minutes at 180°C. Allow to cool.

Pour the cherries with the juice in a bowl. In a saucepan, bring 5 tablespoons of the cherry juice to a boil, then turn off the heat. Squeeze all water out of gelatin sheets, add to the juice and stir until gelatin has dissolved. Then mix with the rest of the juice and cherries and set aside. Keep a few cherries aside for decoration.

In a saucepan, bring 5 tablespoons heavy cream to a boil, then turn off the heat. Squeeze all water out of gelatin sheets, add to the cream and stir until gelatin has dissolved. Beat the rest of the heavy cream to stiff with the icing sugar, then add gelatine and poppy seeds, stir gently with a spatula.

Once cooled, remove the cake from the springform, discard the paper and place the first cake back in the pan. Pour the cherries with juice and spread with 1/3 of the whipped cream. Cover with the second cake and put in the fridge for an hour. Then unmold the cake, run a knife around the edge of the pan to release the cake. Cover the top and the sides of the cake with the whipped cream. Place the cherries on top and sprinkle with grated chocolate. Enjoy!

    Hey!

    nice looking cake!
    But I have a question. When I am preparing the cake, the batter is too dry, even with the egg white later. What can I add without ruining the batter?

    Thanks a lot for your recipies!
