120 g of semolina sugar 80 g of butter or vegetable fat 60 g of flour 50 g of apricot or raspberry preserves 30 g cocoa 5 pcs eggplant 1 pk white 1 tsp vanilla sugar pinch of ground cinnamon coarse flour to sprinkle over the mould fat to grease the mould For the icing: 80 g chocolate 40 g butter For whipped cream: 1/4 l whipping cream 1 tbsp of powdered sugar

Procedure:

1. Beat the softened fat until foamy, gradually beat in half the sugar, vanilla sugar, cinnamon, cocoa and egg yolks
