Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Add the yeast mixture to the dough and knead. Press the cooked potatoes through a ricer or mash them finely with a fork. Add to the pre-dough with the remaining milk and knead well. Let rise for about 60 minutes. Finely chop the onions and mix with the quark, bacon, eggs, cream, pepper, salt, rosemary, and cheese.

Let the cake rise for 15 minutes and bake on the middle rack for about 45 minutes. Tip: This recipe also works in a springform pan with half the ingredients.
