Prepare Cake
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius). Grease and starch a nine-inch round pan. Cut out a piece of Gefen Easy Baking Paper to size and place on bottom of the pan.
-
Beat eggs whites to soft peaks. Slowly add 1/4 cup sugar. Beat to stiff peaks.
-
In a separate bowl, beat the yolks on high until they become light yellow in color. Slowly add 1/4 cup sugar and vanilla sugar. Add oil and slowly sift the potato starch in last (this helps prevent settling).
-
Gently fold the white mixture into the yolk mixture. Pour mixture into greased pan and bake 25–30 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Prepare Custard
-
Combine sugar and potato starch in a small saucepan. Whisk in the almond milk. Add egg yolks, vanilla, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking continuously until thick. Remove from heat. Transfer to a medium-sized bowl. Place plastic wrap onto the surface of the custard and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
To Assemble
-
Remove cake from pan. Remove parchment paper from bottom. Using a serrated knife, cut cake in half horizontally. Place bottom half of cake on a cake plate.
-
Spread evenly with the custard. (It may drip down the sides.) Top with remaining cake half. Refrigerate while preparing the glaze.
-
Heat the pareve whipping cream in a double boiler or a microwave (do not boil). Place broken chocolate pieces into the bowl and mix. Keep stirring until chocolate is melted and totally smooth.
-
When glaze is ready, quickly spread over top and sides of cake. Work quickly before it sets.
