Instructions

Working time approx. 40 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 55 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 35 minutes

Knead all the dough ingredients together thoroughly. Press 2/3 of the dough into a greased springform pan for the base and prick it several times with a fork. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 20 minutes. In the meantime, knead the marzipan mixture with powdered sugar and roll it out into a sheet approximately 20 cm in diameter. Cover the base with it. Pull the currants from the vines and spread them on the base. Crumble the remaining dough over the currants. Bake at the same temperature for another 35 minutes. Tastes great with fresh whipped cream!
