For 12 pieces

1. Dough: Beat the butter until smooth, then gradually stir in the sugar, vanilla sugar, and rum flavoring, along with a little cinnamon if desired, and 1/2 a packet of gingerbread spice. Stir until the mixture forms a thickened dough. Gradually stir in the eggs. Sift together the flour, pudding powder, and baking powder, then stir in the almonds. Pour half of the dough into a springform pan (28 cm diameter, greased bottom). Cut the dominoes in half, roll them in flour with the “dough” side, then spread them on the dough and press down lightly. Pour the remaining dough on top and smooth it down. Place the pan in the oven. Conventional oven at approximately 180°C (350°F); baking time: 25-30 minutes. 2. Dough: Beat the eggs on high for 1 minute until frothy. Mix the sugar with the bourbon vanilla sugar and sprinkle in the flour, then beat for about 2 more minutes. Mix the flour, cocoa, baking powder, a little cinnamon if desired, and gingerbread spice. Sift over the egg custard and stir briefly. Finally, stir in the melted, cooled butter. Pour the batter into a greased 28 cm springform pan and sprinkle with the chopped almonds. Bake immediately. Conventional oven at approximately 180°C (350°F), baking time: 20-30 minutes. Let the second batter cool. Cut each layer horizontally once. Whip 1/2 cup of cream. Crumble the bottom half of the second layer (without the almonds), fold the crumbs into the whipped cream along with some cinnamon and chocolate sprinkles. Assemble the cake as follows: Spread one half of the first layer with cranberry jelly. Spread half of the crumbled cream on top. Place the remaining half of the second layer with the almonds on top. Place the marzipan topping on top. Spread the remaining half of the crumbled cream on top. Cover with the second half of the first layer. Spread with the remaining cranberry jelly. Briefly heat the dark chocolate with the cream, then spread it over the cake lid and the edges. Once the chocolate has set, whip the remaining cream and decorate the cake with it and the dominoes.
