Preparation procedure

  • Dough: Mix all the ingredients for the dough and form a smooth, compact dough. Divide it into two equal halves, wrap in cling film and let rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or 10–15 minutes in the freezer).
  • Filling: Mix the quark with the powdered sugar and egg yolks until smooth. Finally, gently fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites.
  • Assembling the cake: Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Grease the baking tray and dust with flour. Grate one half of the chilled dough onto the bottom. Spread the quark filling evenly over it. Grate the second half of the dough on top.
  • Baking: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 35–40 minutes, until the surface turns golden. Let it cool. Before serving, you can sprinkle with powdered sugar.

  • Number of servings: 12

  • Total preparation time: 90 minutes (including chilling the dough)

Recipe conclusion:

The grated quark cake is one of those traditional desserts that never disappoints. It’s simple to prepare, well balanced in flavor and, thanks to the grated dough, has a wonderfully tender texture. It tastes great even the next day and is suitable both for ordinary afternoons and for the festive table. If you’re looking for a tried-and-true recipe from our grandmothers’ days, this one is exactly the right choice.
