Dream Pie by Gui Gedda \ Tarte aux pignons


Wonderful, easy to make cake! The only disadvantage - you just can't stop yourself eating it.. 
I was inspired by my blog-friend Svet. She has this recipe in russian and with lots of nice pictures here.







Sure I got the book - luckely it exist in german! Highly recomended.. 

So, we need for the dough:
125g butter
250g flour 
1,5 tea-spoon solt
2 table-spoon sugar powder
1 yolk
baking powder
some water if needed

For the filling:
125g butter
115g sugar powder
115g almond flour (gemahlene Mandeln)
3 eggs
200g sugar-fruits
100g pini-nuts
2 table-spoons raisins in 3 table-spoons of rum 

For the dough just mix all the ingredients, make a dough. If needed add some water. Leav it in a cold pleace for a couple of hours. 

Now make the filling. Mix very good butter, sugar powder, almonds flour and eggs. Mix it really good! At the end add sugar-fruits and raisins. Done. 

Then take a 24cm form, Put there the dough, fill in with the filling, put pini on top. Bake in 190-200 for about 35-40 minutes. 

It's just great!

P.S. When it was done - it was already late night...

Yeeees! The cake was just wonderful.. and disappeared after seconds ))

the language of the book doesn't help a lot, because my german is not a lot better as your french / i guess ;)
