Ingredients

For the base:
- 4 eggs
- 80 g sugar
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- 100 ml oil
- 20 ml milk
- 30 ml Amaretto liqueur (optional)
- 2 tablespoons semolina
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- A pinch of salt

For the cream:
- 200 ml whipped cream
- 200 ml condensed milk
- 100 ml milk
- 50 ml Amaretto liqueur
- 1 packet of gelatin
- 2 tablespoons honey

For assembly:
- 1 clean pot (preferably ceramic)
- Flowers for decoration (you can choose edible flowers for an even more attractive look)
- Plastic wrap
- Aluminum foil

Preparation

1. Preparing the base:
Start by preheating the oven to 160 degrees Celsius. In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar and vanilla sugar until the mixture becomes light in color and the sugar is completely dissolved. It is important to be patient at this stage, as good beating will ensure an airy base.

Gradually add the oil, alternating with a little milk, until you incorporate all the oil and milk. Next, add the honey and, if desired, the Amaretto liqueur for a touch of flavor.

In another bowl, mix the semolina, flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Sifting these ingredients will help avoid lumps in the batter. Add the flour mixture to the egg yolk mixture and gently mix.

Separately, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until you achieve a firm foam. Carefully fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture, using a spatula to avoid losing the air from the egg whites.

Pour the batter into a baking pan lined with parchment paper and bake for 15 minutes or until firm to the touch. Let it cool completely.

2. Preparing the cream:
While the base cools, prepare the cream. Whip the cream until it becomes firm, then set it aside. Dissolve the gelatin in 50 ml of milk over a double boiler, being careful not to boil. Once the gelatin is completely dissolved, add it to a bowl along with the condensed milk, the remaining milk, and honey. Mix well.

Incorporate the gelatin mixture into the whipped cream, ensuring everything is well homogenized. Refrigerate the cream for about 30 minutes.

3. Assembling the cake:
Choose a clean pot and line it with plastic wrap. Cut a first layer from the baked base and place it at the bottom of the pot. Add half of the cream and spread it evenly. Cut another layer and place it over the first cream, then add the remaining cream.

To achieve a natural look, crumble the leftover base and sprinkle it over the cream to imitate soil.

Cover the pot with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-3 hours to set.

4. Decoration:
Before heading to the celebration, decorate the cake with fresh or edible flowers. Make sure to cut the stems of the flowers and wrap them in aluminum foil to avoid contaminating the dessert.

Serving and suggestions:
The Pot Milch Schnitte is perfect for birthdays, parties, or any festive moment. It can be served alongside a cup of coffee or a fragrant tea. You can also pair it with vanilla ice cream or a fresh fruit sauce for a delicious contrast.

Tips and useful advice

- If you want to experiment with flavors, you can replace the Amaretto liqueur with something else, such as almond extract or even a splash of orange essence.
- Make sure to use a new, clean pot that has not been previously used for plants to avoid contaminating the dessert.
- You can prepare the base and cream a day in advance, which will make assembly much easier.

Frequently asked questions

1. Can I replace the condensed milk?

The cake can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days, but it is best in the first 2 days.

4. What flowers can I use for decoration?
Edible flowers, such as violets, marigolds, or roses, are excellent choices to add a vibrant and elegant look to the cake.
