For 16 portions

Ingredients

Cocoa batter:

Quark filling:

Preparation procedure

  • Batter In a bowl, mix both types of flour, sugar, baking powder, vanilla sugar and lemon zest. Add the eggs, milk and oil and beat until smooth. Fold in the cocoa. Pour most of the batter into a baking pan lined with parchment paper (approx. 30 × 40 cm), leaving about 4–5 tablespoons aside.
  • Quark filling Beat the quark, sugar, milk, pudding powder, vanilla sugar and eggs into a smooth cream. Pour it evenly over the cocoa batter in the baking pan.
  • Marbling Use the remaining cocoa batter to create zigzag stripes across the surface and gently spread them with a toothpick.
  • Baking Bake in a preheated oven at 170–180 °C for about 40 minutes, until the surface is golden and the center springs back to the touch. For certainty, test with a toothpick.
  • Finishing Let cool completely, cut into slices and serve.
