preparation
Preheat oven to 180 degrees.
Dough:
Beat the whole eggs with the water for 1 minute using a hand mixer on the highest setting until frothy. Add sugar and beat for another 2 minutes. Sift the flour mixed with starch and baking powder onto the egg cream in two portions and stir in briefly at the lowest setting so that no traces of flour can be seen. Pour the dough into a pan lined with baking paper and bake immediately on the second rack from the bottom for 25 – 30 minutes.
Buttercream:
Cook the pudding according to instructions and let it cool, stirring occasionally. Then mix a tablespoon at a time into the foamy, room temperature butter.
