📝 What You’ll Need
| Ingredient | Amount |
|---|---|
| Eggs | 2 |
| Milk | 1 cup |
| Puff pastry | 250 grams |
| Wheat flour | 2 Tbsp |
| Cheese fondue dough | 400 grams |
| Butter (for greasing) | As needed |
👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Start the Filling
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and milk until smooth and lump-free. This forms the silky base of your creamy filling.
2. Add the Richness
Crack in the eggs and whisk thoroughly. Fold in the cheese fondue dough and stir until the mixture becomes a cohesive, velvety blend.
💡 No fondue dough on hand? Melt some Gruyère or Emmental into a thick sauce as a perfect stand-in.
3. Line the Pan
Generously butter a springform or removable-bottom pan. Line it with puff pastry, gently pressing it into the base and up the sides. Trim the edges and use a fork to prick the bottom—this helps prevent bubbles during baking.
4. Fill and Smooth
Pour the cheesy filling into the pastry shell and spread evenly with a spatula.
🔥 Time to Bake
5. Bake It Up
Preheat your oven to 428°F (220°C). Bake for around 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is set but still creamy inside.
đź’ˇ If the top browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil for the last 10 minutes.
6. Cool and Slice
Let the cake cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Carefully remove the pan sides to reveal your masterpiece.
🎉 Serving Tip: For a party-perfect presentation, use mini tart pans to create elegant individual servings.
