In a bowl, whisk the flour and milk until the mixture is silky smooth – without lumps. This creates a luxuriously creamy consistency.
2. Add the filling
Add the eggs and whisk until everything is mixed. Then stir in the cheese fondue batter until everything becomes a thick, cheesy mass.
Tip: Don’t have fondue batter? Melt Gruyère or Emmentaler until it thickens and resembles a sauce, so you can replace it perfectly.
3. Prepare the batter
Lightly grease a springform pan. Line it with the puff pastry and press it firmly against the base and sides. Trim off any excess dough and prick the bottom lightly with a fork to prevent the cake from rising unevenly.
4. Make the dough
Pour the cheese filling into the cake tin and spread it evenly over the entire surface.
🔥 Bake until golden brown
5. Place in the oven
Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F). Bake for about 45 minutes, until the bottom is golden brown and the filling is set but still creamy.
Tip: If the top is browning too quickly, cover loosely with foil for the last 10 minutes.
6. Let rest and serve
Let the cake cool for 10 minutes before cutting into it. For a dramatic presentation, carefully remove the sides of the tin and plate.
Serving tip: Serve individual portions in small cake tins for an elegant touch at parties or gatherings.
This cake is comfort and elegance wrapped in buttery layers. Would you like me to make a tasty dessert to go with it – maybe something with a hint of fig or walnuts to enhance the cheese filling? 🧁🧂
