juice of ½ lemon
a handful of blackcurrants or other small berries (optional)

Base (biscuit layers):

200–250 g baby sponge biscuits or butter cookies
150 ml juice / chilled coffee / rum (for drizzling over the biscuits)

Preparation procedure

Prepare the fruit Rinse the raspberries, toss with lemon juice and set aside. Rinse the blackcurrants and let drain.
Whip the cream Whip the whipping cream to stiff peaks. Fold in the quark and sour cream. Add the mashed banana and, if desired, a small amount of honey – taste and adjust the sweetness.
Assembling the dessert Line the bottom of the pan with a layer of biscuits and lightly drizzle them with juice, coffee, or rum (do not soak). Spread part of the cream, sprinkle with blackcurrants or other fruit. Repeat with biscuits + drizzle, cream. The final layer should be cream.
Finishing Arrange the remaining raspberries on top, sprinkle with chocolate flakes or a biscuit crumble. Cover with foil and refrigerate for 2–3 hours (ideally overnight) to chill and set.
Serving Cut into slices with a sharp knife. Serve plain or with whipped cream or ice cream.
