Ingredients
Makes about 8 servings
3/4 cup (170g) butter, softened
3/4 cup (150g) caster sugar
3 large eggs
1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (50g) almond flour (ground almonds)
1 1/4 tsp (5g) baking powder
1/4 tsp (1g) salt
2 tbsp (30ml) milk
For almond batter
1 tsp (5g) almond extract
For chocolate batter
2 tbsp (16g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp (15g) sugar
2 tbsp (30ml) milk
For brushing
3/4 cup (180g) apricot jam
Almond Paste (Marzipan)
2 cups (200g) almond flour (ground almonds)
1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
4 tbsp (60g) apricot jam
2 tbsp (16g) unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp (5g) almond extract
1. Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Grease and line a 8 inch (20cm) square pan with parchment paper, dividing the pan in half using an aluminum wall.
2. In a medium bowl combine flour with almond flour, baking powder and salt.
3. In a large bowl mix butter with sugar until creamy. Add eggs one at a time, and mix to incorporate.
4. Gradually add flour mixture and milk and mix to combine.
5. Divide batter in half.
6. For the almond batter incorporate almond extract.
7. For the chocolate batter mix cocoa powder, milk and sugar in a small bowl and incorporate in the other half of batter.
8. Pour each batter into one half of the prepared pan.
9. Bake for about 30-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
10. Remove from oven, cool for 5 minutes in the pan and then cool completely on a cooling rack.
11. Meanwhile warm the apricot jam, sieve and let cool.
12. When cakes are completely cooled place trim the tops to flatten, and place one on top of the other and trim to equal size.
13. Cut each in half lengthways.
14. Place a strip of chocolate cake on a working surface, brush the top and sides with apricot jam and place an almond cake next to it. Repeat with the other strips of cake on top. Make sure to brush each with apricot jam.
15. Prepare the almond paste. Place the almond flour (ground almonds), powdered sugar and cocoa powder into the bowl of a food processor. Grind to combine. Add apricot jam and almond extract and continue grinding until it comes together. Knead a bit into your hands to come together.
16. Use a rolling pin to roll the almond paste between two sheets of parchment paper, into a thin layer.
17. Cut the almond paste into a 8 x 12 inch (20x30cm) rectangle.
18. Tightly wrap the cake in almond paste (marzipan).
19. Trim the ends and refrigerate until ready to serve.

What a beautiful video, right down to the chessboard and the final result. It was perfect coincidence that the video ended with a recommendation for your Wiener Schnitzel - a dish I've been craving for weeks!

my only complaint is that the cake is too small. but looks good.
Iria Monge those we're my thoughts, we have a similar cake in the US called checker board cake. These are made 3-16' inches round or square.
My thought exactly
Podia ser em português
Double the recipe

I really liked the way of presenting diff type of cakeSo relaxable
It looks so tasty but I don't like chocolate mixed with fruit at all 😭
TeruteruBozusama
What are you? Chocolate with fruit is life!!😍😍😍😍
Lekera Brathwaite sorry 😭, it just doesn't taste right to me 😭. But I do like mint, hazelnuts, rice, salty caramel, peanuts, and sometimes almonds 😍.
chocolate and jam is disgusting :S
What a beautiful cake!
Acho que deveriam colocar em português, tem muita gente que não sabe todas as línguas né?
Nice recipe
Your presentation is very professional and natural.
Great job
Why 2 dislikes... ?? 😈😈 I mean what the flaw??
