Vanilla Plum Cake

Directions

1. For Shortcrust Pastry
2. 1
   For the shortcrust pastry, combine all the ingredients well and work them into a smooth dough. Set aside one-third of the dough in the refrigerator.
3. For Vanilla Cream
4. 2
   While the dough is resting, prepare the vanilla cream. To do this, heat the milk and mix the cornstarch, egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract with some cold milk in a separate bowl until smooth. Once the milk is hot, slowly add the egg-starch mixture, stirring continuously. Then take the cream off the heat and let it cool down.
5. For Cake Assembly
6. 3
   Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius (fan). Grease a springform pan (26 cm in diameter) and press the dough into it, pushing it about halfway up the sides.
7. 4
   Spread the vanilla cream evenly over the dough.
8. 5
   Wash the plums, halve them, remove the stones, and place them cut side up on the cream. Sprinkle them with sugar.

Nothing sticks. Everything releases.
