GERMAN APRICOT RAHM KUCHEN (CREAM CAKE) RECIPE - (4.2/5)



German Apricot Rahm Kuchen (Cream Cake) Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 15

PASTRY CRUST:
7 ounces flour (about 1 1/2 cups)
5 1/2 ounces unsalted butter
3 ounces sugar (scant 1/2 cup)
2 egg yolks
1 package vanilla sugar or
3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla
Zest small lemon, or to taste
1/4 cup apricot jam or peach (optional)
2 pounds fresh apricots
TOPPING:
1 cup sour cream
4 ounces sugar
3 whole eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • EQUIPMENT RECOMMENDED: Spring form pan. You can use a deep-dish pie plate, but the filling might run over. Depending on the size of the apricots, you will use about 2 pounds. Wash and pit the apricots and cut in half, and then score in quarters. You don't want to slice the apricots too thin. CRUST: Whisk together all of the dry ingredients and the lemon zest. Create a well in the middle and add the eggs (and vanilla, if not using vanilla sugar), lemon zest and the butter. Knead with fingers to combine. Using the heels of your hand, knead until all the ingredients are combined. NOTE: You can adapt this recipe using a food processor. Just pulse the ingredients until they are just combined. Flour the surface, so the dough won't stick. Roll into a circle and set into a lightly greased and floured spring form pan. NOTE: This is a very soft dough, and will most likely break apart. Don't despair! You patch it all together and it will turn out fine. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Thin the apricot jam with a splash of water and stir until spreadable. Spread a thin, even layer of the jam over the dough (this will prevent the crust from becoming soggy). Layer the apricots, skin side down, in one even layer. Do not overfill the fruit, because the topping should cover the fruit. Blend all of the ingredients for the topping and pour over the fruit. Set the pan on top of a baking sheet, in case of leakage or spillovers. Bake at 350°F for approximately 55 minutes. The topping should be lightly golden, but not brown. Allow the tart to cool until at room temperature, and refrigerate for at least one hour for the cream topping to set completely. Take one bite, and enjoy the creamy deliciousness!

Tips:

  • Use fresh apricots: Fresh apricots have a more intense flavor and better texture than canned or dried apricots. If you can't find fresh apricots, you can substitute canned or dried apricots, but the flavor will be less pronounced.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Apricot cream cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and fluffy texture, sweet and tangy apricot filling, and creamy frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. For best results, use fresh apricots and don't overmix the batter. Be sure to let the cake cool completely before frosting it.
