Our mother always made this cake for special occasions. I searched for the recipe for a long time, as she called it a Malakoff cake. Then my sister-in-law, a trained pastry chef, brought us a 'real' Malakoff cake, and we were surprised because it tasted completely different, of course. Today I was finally able to recreate this cake and hope it tastes similar to how our mom always made it. As I get older, I notice that I like having dishes from my childhood; they evoke such beautiful memories. Here you can create new memories by trying out this cake from my mom:

Ingredients

Decoration

Preparation

  1. First beat the whipped cream until very stiff, then beat in the vanilla sugar at the end.

  2. Put it in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.

  3. Then stir the raspberry syrup with water, rum and sugar well in a wide bowl; the sugar should dissolve.

  4. Prepare the springform pan, the whipped cream, the juice-rum mixture and the ladyfingers.

  5. Dip the ladyfingers repeatedly into the juice-rum mixture and lay a layer in the springform pan.

  6. Then spread a layer of whipped cream over them.

  7. Another layer of dipped ladyfingers and then whipped cream again.

  8. For me there were 3 layers of ladyfingers; finish the cake with a layer of whipped cream and put it immediately into the refrigerator, preferably overnight.

  9. I had some whipped cream left over, which I also left in the refrigerator overnight.

  10. The next day I removed the cake ring and touched up the rim with a little whipped cream.

  11. With the remaining ladyfingers I decorated the rim.

  12. For this, halve the ladyfingers with a knife (and do not dip them anymore!) and attach them to the edge.

  13. If desired, you can also decorate the ladyfinger cake with chocolate sprinkles.

  14. I placed a heart-shaped cookie cutter on it and spread the chocolate sprinkles inside that shape.
