Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 170 °C (conventional oven).

  2. For the base: whisk the QimiQ Sauce Base with the melted butter and eggs until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.

  3. Fill the mixture into a greased cake tin and bake in the preheated oven for approx. 30-35 minutes. Allow to cool.

  4. For the cream: lightly whip the cold QimiQ Whip and QimiQ Classic Vanilla together until completely smooth, ensuring that the entire mixture is incorporated (especially from bottom and sides of bowl).

  5. Add the yoghurt and sugar and continue to whip until the required volume has been achieved. Fold in the hazelnut pralines and chocolate.

  6. Cut the base into 2 layers and place one layer into a cake ring. Distribute 2/3 of the cream onto the base and cover with the second layer. Spread the remaining cream on top.

  7. Allow to chill for approx. 4 hours.
