Russian "Plucked Cake" / Zupfkuchen
Café Bredtchen
Russian "plucked cake" is a combination of cheesecake and chocolate cake. The base and rim are made of cocoa flavoured kneaded dough.
The filling, which is very similar to that of the cheesecake, is placed in this "basin". It consists of a dough with curd cheese and usually some lemon aroma. On the filling there are crumbles of the same dough as the base, which are "plucked" onto the cake, hence the name of the cake.
