How to prepare Tosca Cake:
Wheat:
Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Gradually add the sugar and continue mixing until the meringue becomes shiny. Add poppy seeds and coconut,
and at the end flour mixed with baking powder.
Pour the composition into a tray (20/30 cm) lined with baking paper and put in the oven over low heat until lightly browned on top.
Cream:
Rub the yolks with 6 tablespoons of sugar until they become whitish. Add the starch and mix well so that no lumps form. Unwrap everything with cold cans and put on the stove over low heat. Stir continuously until the composition thickens. Let it cool.
Meanwhile, beat the butter with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar and vanilla and add it a little in the well-cooled egg yolk cream.
The cream obtained is evenly distributed on the poppy top.
Syrup:
We caramelize the sugar, then "quench" it with cold water. Beware of steam! Leave to cool and from time to time stir to melt the caramel sugar. After cooling, add the liqueur.
Biscuit countertop:
We syrup the biscuits,
then line them nicely over the layer of cream.
Chocolate glaze:
Melt the chocolate together with the butter and liquid cream. Bring the composition to the boil then homogenize. Leave to cool.
When it has reached the consistency of a thicker cream, pour it over the cookie sheet.
Refrigerate for a few hours, then portion.
