Instruction manual
1
Drain prunes with boiling water, rinse, and then combine it with powdered sugar. Mix this mixture well. Then add rum or cognac there. In this form, leave the dried fruit for about 60 minutes. During this time, prunes are saturated with a kind of marinade.
2
Meanwhile, beat the raw eggs with a blender. Soften butter at room temperature. Divide it into 2 equal parts, one of which lay to the egg mass along with vanilla and 100 grams of granulated sugar. To the resulting mixture also introduce baking powder for dough, semolina and wheat flour. Mix everything as it should.
3
Place the remaining butter in a free pan. When it has completely melted, add the remaining sugar to it. Put the resulting creamy sugar mass on a stove and heat until you have caramel.
4
Put the prune soaked in rum in a pan with caramel. Keep this mixture on the stove for several minutes. Thus, dried fruits are caramelized.

Grease the round baking dish with butter. Put in it a mass of semolina. Place caramelized dried fruits on it. Send the resulting cake to bake at a temperature equal to 180 degrees for 40 minutes.

After this period of time, remove the pastries from the baking dish. Charlotte on a semolina with caramel prunes is ready!
