Swiss Wine Cake topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
For the test:
- Wheat flour – 250 grams
- Baking powder - 1 pinch
- Butter – 125 grams
- Sugar – 30 grams
- Milk - 1 tablespoon
- One egg yolk
- A pinch of salt
For the filling:
- A tablespoon of flour
- Sugar – 80 grams
- Cream – 1 tablespoon
- White wine – 1 glass
- A little butter
- A pinch of powdered sugar
Preparation:
- Let the butter melt at room temperature. We don't need clarified butter.
- In a large bowl, combine the sugar and butter, add a tablespoon of milk, and the egg yolk. Mix well, then add the flour mixed with salt and a pinch of baking powder. Work with your hands until the dough has a shortbread texture. It shouldn't become smooth, or the pie will be tough. Form into a ball, wrap in foil, and store in a cool, but not too cold, place. If you refrigerate the dough, it will harden and you won't be able to roll it out.
- Using a rolling pin, slowly stretch the dough; it will tear, so you'll have to work hard. You can cut a template of your baking pan out of parchment paper to help you determine the size of the dough.
- Transfer the dough into the pan directly on the parchment paper, lifting its edges.
- Sprinkle the inside of the pie with sugar, pour in white wine, cream, add a pinch of powdered sugar and mix well.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 240°C (450°F). Remove from oven, add the shaved butter, then the flour, and whisk gently. Continue baking for another 10 minutes or until done.
- Remove from the oven, let cool slightly on a wire rack, and remove the paper. Serve the Swiss wine cake warm or cool. The baked caramel will be sticky.
