Preparation
1.

For the crust: Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and vanilla sugar in a large bowl. Add the egg and distribute the butter over the top. Mix everything together using a pastry cutter or two forks, then quickly knead with hands to form a smooth dough. Roll the dough out to about 38 x 28 cm (approximately 15 x 11 inches) and press into a well-greased baking pan of the same size. 

2.

For the sponge cake: Beat the eggs with the hot water, sugar and vanilla sugar until light and frothy. Sift in the flour and baking powder and mix well. Add the ground almonds and melted butter and mix until smooth. Spread the batter over the prepared crust and bake in an oven preheated to 200°C/180°C convection/gas mark 3-4 (approximately 400°F/350°F convection) for 15 minutes. 

3.

For the topping: Whisk the vanilla pudding powder into 200 ml (approximately 1 cup) of the milk. Bring the remaining milk to a simmer, stir in the pudding mixture and simmer until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar and cottage cheese. Rinse and halve the grapes and fold into the pudding mixture. Spread the pudding mixture onto the sponge cake and return to the oven for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven, let cool, cut into squares and serve.
