For 12 portions

Ingredients

Batter:

2 cups medium-ground flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup milk
½ cup oil
2 eggs
1 packet vanilla sugar
1 packet baking powder
finely grated lemon zest

„Dollops“ for the surface:

250 g soft quark (tvaroh)
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
about 100 g povidla (plum butter) or thick jam
3–4 squares of dark chocolate, melted and stirred into part of the povidla
(optionally 1 tablespoon softened butter into the quark for extra creaminess)

To finish:

powdered sugar or coconut for sprinkling

Preparation procedure

Dough Beat the eggs with the sugar until pale and foamy. Pour in the oil and milk, mix. Fold in the flour with the baking powder, the vanilla sugar and the lemon zest. Spread the batter onto a buttered and floured baking sheet (or line with baking paper).
Dollops Mix the quark with the powdered sugar (and optionally the butter). Stir the melted chocolate into part of the povidla. Using a teaspoon, make irregular "mounds" of quark and povidla on the batter – alternating light and chocolate ones.
Baking Bake in an oven preheated to 180 °C for about 25 minutes, until a skewer comes out dry and the edges are lightly golden.
Finishing Let cool briefly, sprinkle with powdered sugar or coconut, and cut into slices.
