Provided by Maike

Categories     Baked Goods     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick butter (unsalted, room temperature)
½ cup sugar (granulated)
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup milk
1¼ cup flour (all purpose)
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 package instant pudding mix
1 ½ cup heavy whipping cream
½ cup sugar
½ cup water (divided)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
4 cups strawberries (sliced)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350° Fahrenheit. Grease the bottom of an 11" tart pan and lightly sprinkle with some flour. Be sure not to grease the sides of the tart pan as this will interfere with the batter rising.
  • Use a large mixing bowl and a hand mixer and beat the softened butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt together on high speed until smooth. About 2-3 minutes.
  • Reduce the speed to low and add in one egg at a time. Allow each egg to fully incorporate into the batter before adding the next egg.
  • Slowly add the milk into the batter. Beat on low until the milk is well combined.
  • Add the flour and baking powder to the batter and continue to beat on low speed. Use a spatula to scrape the sides. Beat until the dry ingredients are well combined.
  • Pour batter into the tart pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter evenly.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer onto a cooling rack. Remove from the tart pan and allow it to cool completely.
  • Use a medium mixing bowl and combine instant pudding with heavy whipping cream. Use a hand mixer and whisk until the mixture is creamy. Set aside.
  • Use a small bowl and whisk 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water until there are no lumps. Set aside.
  • Use a small saucepan and bring a ¼ cup of water and ½ cup of sugar to a boil. Once the water has reached a boil, reduce the heat to medium and whisk in the liquid cornstarch into the boiling sugar water.
  • Whisk continuously for about 3-5 minutes until the mixture becomes thick and syrupy. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Once the cake has fully cooled. Spread the pudding cream mixture with a spatula or cake spreader evenly across the cake.
  • Top the filling with sliced strawberries. Use a pastry brush to glaze the strawberries. Allow to harden for 30 minutes.

  • When spreading the pastry cream onto the ladyfingers, use a thin layer. This will help prevent the torte from becoming too soggy.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a 9-inch pie plate. Just be sure to trim the ladyfingers so that they fit snugly against the sides of the pan.
  • To make slicing the torte easier, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
