Spread the dough smoothly on baking paper in the springform pan, then bake in the oven at the same temperature as the shortcrust pastry for about 30 minutes. Separate the side of the springform pan from the cake and remove it. Turn the cake onto baking paper on a cake rack and let it cool, than carefully peel the baking paper off the base of the cake.
