Notes
- You can adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste.
- Instead of Russian tvorog you can use quark. In this case you might need a little more flour for the batter.
- Do not stir the batter too long, but only briefly until a homogeneous consistency, so that the currant cake with quark tastes moist and not rubbery at the end.
- To bake the cake you need a Ø 24 cm bundt pan. Alternatively, you can use another baking pan.
- Do not bake the berry quark bundt cake longer than necessary. Otherwise it could taste dry. Use a wooden skewer to check if it is done baking.
