We spread the half of the buttered pastry leaves in a baking tin and we pour over the cream.

We cover with the remaining buttered pastry leaves and we cut the cake in slices to form the portions and we cook in oven at low temperature until golden brown.

In the meantime, we have prepared the syrup and pour it on the cake.
