In the original recipe whipping cream is used for the filling. But I personally think it is too heavy. The mixture of quark and single cream is a light and very delicious alternative.

Dough:

50g margarine

50g sugar

2 egg yolks

65g flour

1tsp. baking powder

10ml milk
 

100g single cream

250g quark

1 can of mandarines

2 egg whites

100g sugar

30g flaked almonds

 2 baking tins (dia. 20cm)
 

Open canned mandarins.

Allow the juice to drip off the mandarins before using it for the filling.
 

Mix margarine, sugar and yolks.

Add flour, baking powder and milk.
 

Whisk egg whites very stiff and add sugar.
 

Divide dough between the 2 tins.

Add stiffed egg white on both mixtures and flatten it.

Sprinkle with flaked almonds and bake for 20 mins.
 

After baking leave in tin to cool.
 

Mix single cream, quark and vanillin sugar.

Take both cakes out of the baking tins.

Spread half of the quark mixture on one cake.

Put mandarins on it. Now spread the rest of quark mixture onto the mandarins.

Cut second cake in 8 pieces.

Place the cake pieces on the top of the quark mixture.
