Method · 1 h 50 min
- Grease two baking sheets with butter and sprinkle with coarse flour. Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
- Prepare the dough. Knead the ingredients into a smooth dough by hand (or in a mixer) and divide into two parts.
- Roll out the first piece of dough to the size of the baking sheet, transfer it to the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes.
- Roll out the second piece of dough to the size of the baking sheet and transfer it to the second baking sheet.
- Prepare the walnut crust. Place all ingredients in a pan and let melt, stirring constantly. Slowly toast the nuts, being careful not to burn them.
- Spread the second, prepared piece of dough with the walnut crust and bake in the oven. Bake until golden brown at 180 °C for about 10-15 minutes. Keep an eye on it during baking.
- Let both cakes cool and prepare the cream.
- Heat the milk and sugar in a saucepan. Add the cornstarch mixed with a little water. Stir and boil until thick. Set aside and let cool slightly.
- Gradually whisk the softened butter into the cooled mixture.
- Spread the cream on a dry pancake (without the nut crust) and place the second pancake with the nut crust on top of the cream (nuts facing up).
- Let the finished slices rest in the refrigerator before serving.
