Cream cake, quick sponge cake

Sponge cake: Mix all ingredients in a bowl with a hand mixer until the batter is light and airy. This takes about 10 minutes. This amount is enough for one base (springform pan or tart base pan). Grease the pan and dust with breadcrumbs, pour in the batter, and then bake at 180°C for about 25 minutes. Biscuit base: Melt the chocolate coating in a warm water bath. Place the biscuits and cornflakes in a freezer bag and crush with a rolling pin. Warm the butter. Line a cake plate with baking paper. Mix the biscuit crumbs with the melted chocolate and butter. Press the crumb mixture into the pan to form the base. Refrigerate the base for 30 minutes. For the cream: Prepare the pudding according to the package instructions and cool to room temperature while stirring. Now cream the butter and stir in the pudding a spoonful at a time. Important: The butter and pudding must be approximately the same temperature. Cut the pears into half-cm thick slices. Assembly: Cut the sponge cake into three sheets. Spread the sponge cake base with pear jelly and place a sponge cake layer on top. Arrange the pears on the sponge cake and spread with buttercream. Place the second sponge cake layer on top and also spread with buttercream. Place the last sponge cake layer on top and cover the entire cake with the remaining buttercream. If you like a lot of buttercream, double the amount. You can decorate the whole thing with pear quarters and white chocolate shavings. Then refrigerate for another 2 hours.
