Pecan Zerbo Cake

Close your eyes, take a bite and enjoy the irresistible chocolate, pecan and jam flavors together. Here comes another bite, and another and so on…I have stopped counting at 3.

A little bit sour – jam or a fruity marmalade, much more sweet as chocolate is and delicious pecans invite bite after bite. Put this cake on your table and eat it with joy – not alone, off course!

Greatest cake tor parties and gatherings, cut in small bite-sized cake slices, practical and beautifully looking on the table for decoration.

Ingredients for the cake

1 pack of yeast
1 cup of milk
10 tbsp of sugar
1 cup of butter – room temperature
2 1/2 cups of flour
1 egg
2 cups of pecans with 1 cup of sugar
15 tbsp of jam

Method

Make a dough out of the ingredients, off course first put the yeast into the warm milk with sugar, leave it for 5 minutes and add the other ingredients in order to make a dough. Leave it to rest and double the size for approximately 30 min. Divide into 4 equal parts and roll them out in pan-sized flat squares. Grind 2 cups of pecans with 1 cup of sugar and divide it in 3 equal amounts – for 3 layers. Put the first dough into the pan and spread 5 tbsp of jam (apricot) on the dough. Sprinkle the first pecan-sugar amount over it and cover it with another dough. Do the same until you have materials.
