Description
This traditional Ukrainian dessert is deliciously creamy, baked gently and coated in a chocolate glaze.
Method
Step 1 of 5
Pre-heat the oven to 160°C. Place the cottage cheese in a large bowl and blend until smooth with an immersion blender. Add the sugar, cornflour and orange zest and mix well.
Step 2 of 5
Soak the raisins in orange juice for 10 minutes to plump up, drain and dry on kitchen paper.
Step 3 of 5
Add 90g of soft butter to the cheese mix and add one egg a time, whisking well after each addition. Whisk in the vanilla and sour cream and fold the raisins into the mixture.
Step 4 of 5
Pour the batter into a loaf tin lined with parchment paper and bake for 45 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave to cool inside. Once cooled, place in the fridge to set for 1-2 hours. Once chilled, carefully turn out onto a plate.
Step 5 of 5
Melt the rest of the butter with the chocolate in a bowl in the microwave. Set aside to cool then glaze the cake and leave to set before slicing.
