  1. Wash the currants, drain them well and set aside some pretty panicles to decorate. Remove the rest of the berries from the panicles with a fork.

Pour the dough into a springform pan (26 cm) that has been greased and sprinkled with breadcrumbs and smooth out. Spread the berries on the dough and press lightly. Bake in the preheated oven (175 ° electric stove) for 25 - 30 minutes.

  4. Remove the cake from the pan and let it cool down. Just before serving, dust with powdered sugar and decorate with currant panicles.
