Quark Sheet Cake with Vanilla Pudding – A Taste of Childhood

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) top and bottom heat. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

2. In a large bowl, mix the quark, sugar, vanilla sugar, eggs, and soft butter until creamy.

3. Prepare the vanilla pudding according to the package instructions using the milk (usually by cooking it with a little sugar). Let it cool slightly, then stir it into the quark mixture.

4. Add the lemon zest and a pinch of salt.

5. In a separate bowl, combine flour and baking powder, then gradually stir it into the quark mixture.

6. Finally, pour in the cream and mix until the batter is smooth and silky.

7. Spread the batter evenly onto the prepared baking tray and smooth the top with a spatula.

8. Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, until golden brown.

9. Let the cake cool, then cut into squares and serve — delicious with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream!

📌 Tips

• Add a pinch of cinnamon to the batter for extra warmth.
