En kake med sjokolade og eplesyltetøy, som Jonni det ønsket

This cake is not a lie:

Deig:
sjokoladekjeks

Pålegg & pynte:
eplesyltetøy
hermetisk frukt
et eple (eller halv)

Bak sjokoladekjeksen som i instruksjoner, bare legg den på en kakeform. Kaken bør være minst en tomme tykk og den trenger litt mer en 15 minutter å modne.

Legg eplesyltetøy på kaken og dekorere med frukt. Hjerten og ringer i bilder er gjort med et eple og en kniv (og litt rød farge).

Seths & Tinas bursdagskake

The original recipe is for Runeberg's torte, a traditional Finnish pastry, which is eaten the 5th of February. The normal way is to bake the dough in muffin forms (for 10 minutes) and put some raspberry jam on them afterwards (I used cherry jam because I like it more). 

But, the cake variation by fii:

Dough:

200 g margarine or butter

2 dl sugar
2 eggs
2 dl wheat flour
2 dl bread crumbs
1 dl almond powder
2 ts baking powder
pinch of rum essence

Filling:
cherry jam

Frosting:
1 dl vanilla curd
2 dl powder sugar
3 ts lemon juice
3 gelatine leaves
red food color additive

Mix all the dough ingredients and bake in 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

Let the cake cool down before you split it into two halves and spread the cherry jam in between them.

Put the gelatine soak in cold water. Stir the vanilla curd and the powder sugar together and add the red color. Heat the lemon juice to boiling and melt the gelatine into it. Pour the juice to the vanilla curd mixture while stirring well. Put the filling to the fridge for a while (10-15 minutes I think - I had to be away for a longer time, and that's why the topping became so knobbly). After that stir on top of the cake and decorate with a marsipan figure and heart-shaped sprinkles. 

"Takk for Julian" -kake

Cake base:  
enkel sjokoladekake

Yogurt filling:
1,5 dl vanilla yogurt
200 g of plain cream cheese (eg. Philadelphia)

about 1 dl powder sugar
2 ts lemon juice or water

Apricot filling:
apricot marmalade

Frosting:
150 g of milk chocolate
about ½ dl of cream
3 ts margarine or butter

Make cake according to instructions. Put the gelatine soak in cold water. Stir yogurt and cream cheese together and add the powder sugar and vanilla. Heat the lemon juice to boiling and melt the gelatine into it. Pour the juice to the yogurt mixture while stirring well. Put the filling to the fridge for a while (10-15 minutes I think).

Split the cake and spread apricot jam on the lower half. Spread the yogurt filling on top of the jam. Place the upper half on the lower one and spread a thin layer of apricot jam on top.

Heat the chocolate, cream and butter, in a water bath until the chocolate has melted. Stir until it's smooth and spread over the cake.

Bottom:
2 ½ dl wheat flour
2 dl rye flour
2 dl brown sugar
150 g margarine
½ dl of water

Filling:
5 dl vanilla cream (vaniljekrem; I used this one.)
100 g white chocolate
6 dl blackberries (or other berries)
¾ dl potato flour

Mix all the flour and brown sugar in a bowl. Melt margarine and add to the dough. Add the water and stir well. Place the dough into the fridge for a while so it's easier to handle.


Cut the white chocolate into small pieces with a knife. Mix with vanilla cream and place into the fridge.

Divide the dough to two parts. Roll out the first one to the size of the form (this is going to be the cover) and cut heart-shaped holes to it (or anything you wish). Roll out the rest of the dough and put it into the bottom and sides of a form.

Put the vanilla-chocolate mix into the form. Mix berries with the potato flour and add to the top. Finally, cover with the other dough part.

Bake in 200 degrees for about 40 minutes.

Update 7.5.2012:

I tried a vegan version of this one, and it worked out well. I just dropped out the eggs and replaced the milk with oat milk (soy milk or water would certainly work as well) and increased the amount of liquids just a bit (0,5 dl, I think).
