Preparation procedure

  • Preparation of the cocoa batter: Beat the yolks with the sugar until light and foamy, gradually pour in the oil, add the jam, cocoa, milk and vanilla sugar. Fold in the sifted flour with the baking powder to form a smooth batter. Pour onto a greased and floured baking sheet (approx. 25×35 cm). Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C for 15 minutes.
  • Preparation of the apple filling: Peel the apples, coarsely grate them and drizzle with lemon juice. Whip the egg whites with the sugar until stiff peaks form and gently fold in the grated apples. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the pre‑baked batter and return to the oven at 180 °C for 30 minutes.
  • Chocolate ganache: Chop the chocolate, pour over hot but not boiling cream and stir until a glossy cream forms. Let cool slightly.
  • Finishing: Let the baked cake cool for 10 minutes, then pour the ganache over it and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Cut into portions.
