Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 30 minutes

nut-free, quick, aromatic

Preheat the oven to 175°C. Slowly melt the chocolate over low heat. Meanwhile, separate the eggs. Beat the egg yolks with vanilla sugar and sugar until light and creamy (about 5 minutes). Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form (with a small pinch of salt). Mix 1 teaspoon (that’s not a typo!) of flour and the baking powder (I use a maximum of 1/4 sachet) and add to the egg yolk and sugar mixture. Stir in the melted chocolate. Now fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites. Pour the batter into a springform pan lined with baking paper and bake for 30 minutes (do the skewer test). Let the finished cake cool in the pan. The base will collapse in the middle to form a rim! Place on a cake plate and drizzle with rum. Place the cranberries on top and spread the whipped cream (or cream stabilizer if desired) lightly on top. Dust with cocoa and let stand for at least 2 hours. You can easily bake the base the day before!
