- Roll out the ‘dough’ between two sheets of baking paper so that the diameter of the dough is about 2 cm larger than that of the pie tin. Remove the top sheet of baking paper and push the dough into the mould with the bottom layer of baking paper and all. Press firmly down in the edges of the tin. Alternatively, use the back of a spoon to push the dough into the mould lined with baking paper.
- Bake for 15 min in an oven pre-heated to 150° C
For the filling

- Pour the filling directly into the cake base, tap the cake tin a few times on the countertop so that the surface of the filling flattens out smoothly. If the filling has already thickened, you can also smooth the surface of the pie with a spatula. Leave to set for at least 2 hours at room temperature before serving.
Serving
- Before serving, sprinkle the cake with cocoa powder using a fine sieve. Serve the cake with summer fruits, e.g. blackcurrants or raspberries, or a refreshing compote of e.g. quinces, raspberries or blackberries.1 tl cocoa powder
