The perfect eggnog quark cake with flamed meringue topping recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.

shortcrust

  • 350 g Flour
  • 75 g Sugar
  • 200 g Butter
  • 1 piece Full of egg
  • 1 piece Egg yolk
  • 1 pinch Salt

Eggnog curd mixture

  • 200 ml. Eggnog (in my KB)

alternatively

  • 200 ml Eggnog (e.g. Verpoorten)
  • 150 g (ml) Cream 30% fat
  • 1 piece Vanilla pod (pulp only)
  • 750 g Quark double cream
  • 1 tablespoon Sugar
  • 500 g Baked pudding (in my KB)
  • 0,5 piece Lemon (just the juice)

alternatively

  • 2 Packs Custard powder

Meringue topping

  • 2 piece Egg white
  • 1 Piece (remaining egg white from the shortcrust pastry recipe) Egg white
  • 50 g Sugar

Dough production

  1. First, put the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well. Then briefly melt the butter, pour in a pinch of salt and stir in. Gradually mix in the egg yolks and finally knead the dough in the food processor for about 5 minutes (or with your hands). Then immediately put the dough (without cooling) into a greased springform pan and press down evenly. Pre-bake in the preheated oven at 200 degrees top / bottom heat for 15 minutes.
  2. While doing this, prepare the eggnog curd cream. First stir the egg liqueur and cream until creamy. Now put all the remaining ingredients for the cream in a mixing bowl and mix them well, preferably in the food processor, for about 7-10 minutes. If you want to use the baking pudding from my KB, then here is the LINK >>>>> Mini pudding cake with “Backpudding basic recipe” >>>>> You can also find the recipe for my egg liqueur in KB, namely here >>> >> Eggnog à la Biggi >>>>.
  3. Take the pre-baked shortcrust pastry out of the oven and add the egg liqueur curd mixture. Smooth it out and put it in the oven at 200 degrees for 60 minutes.
  4. Shortly before the end of the baking time, prepare the meringue. Place the egg whites in a fat-free bowl and beat until stiff. If the egg whites are firm, add sugar (if you want a pinch of salt for stability) and fold it in briefly.
  5. Pour into a piping bag and dress on the cake. I am using a perforated nozzle here. Back in the oven and burn the meringue for 10 minutes at 230 degrees. Simply spray the leftovers onto a silicone mat and burn them off as well. Can be enjoyed nicely with a hot cup of cocoa or coffee.
  6. Once the cake has been baked, remove the edge from the ring immediately with a knife. Let it cool down in peace and only then remove the ring. Cut into suitable pieces on a plate – add a hot coffee and enjoy.
