Floor

1. Put all the ingredients in a bowl and knead with your hands to form a smooth dough.
2. Wrap the dough in cling film and let it rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
3. Roll out the dough on a well-floured work surface and line the bottom of a springform pan (18 cm diameter) with it.

filling

3. Separate the eggs, beat the egg whites until stiff and set aside for now.
4. Gradually mix the 4 egg yolks into the cream cheese and chocolate mixture.
5. Finally, carefully fold in the egg white and spread the filling over the base.

Baking

1. Preheat the oven to 160°C hot air.
2. Bake the cake for 15 minutes at 160°C, turn the temperature up to 155°C and bake for another 15 minutes.
3. Turn off the oven and leave the cake in the oven with the door closed for another 15 minutes.

The cake tastes best when it comes out of the fridge well chilled. A fruit mirror made of raspberries and coconut goes very well with this.
