20 spoons of sugar
10 spoons of fried ground almonds
3 tablespoons of breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon of vinegar
Phil I:
150 g of fried ground almonds
200 g of chocolate
250 g of powdered sugar
500 g of margarine
700 ml of milk
30 egg yolks
20 spoons of sugar
3 spoons of density
2 spoons of flour
1 bag of vanilla pudding
Phil II:
150 g of fried ground almonds

500 ml of sweet cream
Ganache cream:
300 g of chocolate
300 ml of sweet cream
Way of preparation:
Peels: First, beat the egg whites, then add sugar, vinegar and beat with a mixer. After that, add breadcrumbs and almonds and mix with a blender. Pour the mixture you got into a pan that you have greased and sprinkled with flour. Bake the crusts at a temperature of 220 degrees, and you can make three crusts from the resulting mixture.
Phil I: To make the first filling, beat the egg yolks with sugar, then add the thickening, pudding powder, flour and 1 dl of milk. Mix everything and cook in 6 dl of milk. Leave the filling to cool. During this time, beat the margarine with powdered sugar, so that a foamy mixture is obtained, and mix it with the filling that has cooled down. Add almonds and melted chocolate.
Phil II: Whip the sweet cream, then add the almonds and the grated euroblock chocolate.
Ganache Cream: Heat the sweet cream until boiling, then add the chocolate and stir until the chocolate melts. Allow the mixture to cool.
First, spread half of the first filling on the crust, and half of the second filling on top of that. Then, put the second crust, and spread the first filling on it again (leave 2-3 spoons of filling for the third crust as well), then the second filling. Place the third crust and spread 2-3 tablespoons of the first filling over it. When you have filled the whole cake, put the ganache cream that has cooled down and sprinkle the cake with chopped almonds or hazelnuts.
