I developed a love of cooking as a small child. Due to the bad relationship between my parents from the very beginning of their marriage, I spent most of my life with my grandmother. She was dedicated to cooking, and as a little boy I always hung around her legs in the kitchen. Although I am a boy, she did not prevent me from helping her whenever I wanted, which was relatively unpopular in patriarchal society at the time for boys to cook.
It quickly turned out that I had great talent, which developed and improved over time. By my choice of a life vocation in the direction of chemistry and technology, it only deepened and improved my culinary skills, because you know how they say about chemistry, that it is a kitchen only in which one should not lick a spoon.
This cake has been prepared in my family for winter holidays since I know it for myself, and today my mother regularly prepares it every year. Since the first snow has finally fallen on me, it's time to treat ourselves to this cake. The cake is ready, now we just need another glass of mulled wine.
