Ľadové rezy, a Slovak layered custard cake, has a light base made with whipped egg whites and a little flour, sprinkled with milk after baking and topped with two layers of filling. The filling is a thick pudding cooked with egg yolks and sugar, with butter beaten in once cool; half is flavored with cocoa. Whipped cream and grated chocolate finish the top. Both the yolks and whites are used in the same cake.

Cake base
Beat the egg whites with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the flour sifted with the baking powder. Spread the batter in a small, deep baking pan, about 20 × 30 cm, greased and dusted with flour.
Bake
Bake slowly in an oven preheated to 160 °C (325 °F) for about 25 minutes, until light golden. Sprinkle the cake base with milk while it is still warm, then let cool.
Filling
Whisk the egg yolks, sugar, and pudding mix into the milk. Cook, stirring constantly, until thick. Let cool, then beat in the softened butter a little at a time. Divide the filling in half and stir the cocoa into one half.
Assemble
Spread the vanilla filling over the cooled cake base, followed by the cocoa filling. Whip the cream and spread it over the top. Sprinkle with grated chocolate and refrigerate until set.
Tip: Let the pudding and butter come to the same room temperature before combining them, or the filling will curdle. Sprinkle the cake base only lightly with milk so it does not become soggy.
