Notes, tips and variations - Using 3 identical cake pans instead of 1 large one is acceptable. - Margarine, vegetable oil or regular butter will substitute for Irish butter. - In some countries (e.g. Austria and Australia) the brandy is often replaced by rum, in Germany itself it is almost always replaced by Kirschwasser. - This did not come with a temperature to bake at for either the pastry or cake. Cakes usually work at between 325°F and 400°F (160°C and 205°C). Pastries usually work at between 350°F and 425°F (175°C and 220°C). Source: https://ift.tt/3BAhha1
