PARADISE CAKE
Ingredients
200gr/ 7oz butter
100gr/3,5oz flour
100gr/3,5oz potato starch
200gr/7oz sugar
6 egg yolks
3 albumens
lemon peels
powdered sugar
Directions. Whip the butter inside a bowl until it becomes a spongy cream. Add sugar and keep stirring. In another bowl, separate the egg yolks (6) from the albumen (3). It is advisable for the eggs not to come directly from the fridge, this way the egg yolks will blend more easily into the mixture. Sift flour and potato starch and add them in. Now whip the albumens until stiff and dry; add it and the lemon peels into the mixture of the first bowl. Keep stirring with an upward movement or it will lose it consistency. Smear a baking pan with a diameter of 20-22 cm with butter and flour and fill it with the mixture, being careful the result looks homogeneous, level the imperfections if needed. Now bake it for 50 minutes t 180°. Before taking the cake out of the oven, make sure it’s ready with the help of a toothpick. Continue reading by clicking Next >
