For the eggnog cake, prepare the shortcrust pastry. To do this, mix all the ingredients, make a thin dough and pour it into a lightly greased springform pan or one lined with baking paper. Bake for 15 minutes in a preheated oven at 170 degrees until golden brown.
For the sponge cake base, beat the eggs and sugar until foamy and mix in the remaining ingredients except for the cocoa. Fill a springform pan with half of the batter and bake at 170 degrees for about 25 minutes until golden. Fold the cocoa into the rest of the dough and bake a base with it as well.
For the cream, soak the gelatine in cold water and squeeze out well. Heat the egg liqueur and dissolve the gelatine in it, whip the cream until stiff and fold some of it into the cooled egg liqueur-gelatine mixture. Then quickly fold the mixture into the remaining cream.
Spread the short pastry with a little apricot jam and cut the light sponge cake in half and place it on top. Place a high cake ring around it and spread thinly with the cream. Cut out individual rings from the chocolate base (from large to small) and place the rings in the mold, but always leave a space for the cream. Fill with the remaining cream and place the second light-colored base on top.
Then put the cake in the refrigerator overnight. The next day, whip the cream and cream stiffener with vanilla sugar until stiff, brush the cake with it and pipe a dotted border. Soak the half sheet of gelatine and mix it in the lightly
